Concerning the Members:
Cursing upon the site is welcomed, however, please keep it in character. No member insulting will be tolerated, and your account will be removed if so. (Also, please use Transformer terminology when in character speaking, unless they've picked up human-like traits. just don't let it get out of hand.
Upon debates or disagreements of any sorts (plots, posting, etc.), these will be handled upon, if not by a single Admin, by polls voted by members of the site. This is to consider EVERYONES opinion upon the situation. The winning vote will be the verdict, and if someone still remains unhappy with the situation, please PM an admin.
Arguing/fighting in the C-Box is unnecessary. If you have a problem with another member, please discuss it with an admin, and avoid drama for the entire site.
Do not spam threads.
We ask that you reply to your threads at least once a week to keep the status of the site steady. If you are to be absent for longer than a period of time, please notify an Admin, or post in the Absent board. If you fail to post within a week, a warning message will be sent to your email. Once the period has reached two weeks, your account will be deleted, and used characters up for grabs.
Concerning the Role Play/Creating Characters:
There is ABSOLUTELY no God-Moding. God Moding is basically putting your character above all others, rather it be in an individual thread or the whole board. It doesn't matter how powerful your characters are, none of them are without weaknesses. If your character gets attacked, do not shrug it off. You may dodge it a few times, but eventually they'll get hit. Make sure they respond accordingly. Injuries will cause your character to slow down and loose strength as you would in real life. More over, they cannot recover from said injuries after a few simple repairs, especially if the wounds are serious. If enough damage is sustained then that character will go into stasis lock no matter what. The limit the character can endure varies, but it should it should never be more then what the character's physical abilities suggest. Similarly, your character cannot knock out another character in one blow unless the character you control is substantially powerful like Megatron, Monstructor or Devastator. In addition, no original character should be able to surpass a canon character without good reason. Besides interacting with other characters, yours should not know everything you do. For example, if someone has their character sneaking up behind yours, do not simply assume that your character knows about it simply because you do. Not only is it very unrealistic, but it's unfair for the other player. Keep your character loyal to their weaknesses and have them act accordingly when they are exploited. No one here is indestructible, not even Unicron! To prevent confusion, be sure to THOROUGHLY READ POSTS.
Make your post worthwhile, and enough to where someone else can reply with stable thoughts. Make it detailed as possible
Spellcheck is there for a reason! Please use appropriate terms, Be literate, spell out 'you', 'I don't know', etc.
It is asked that during events of a four or more people thread, that there is a posting order. While so many people will attend a thread at the same time will be uncommon unless a heartly event within the storyline, keep in mind that everyone whos' attending that so event, also wants to keep informed. Therefore, please place an order once the limit is above three members. If the next one in line is offline, then please wait upon their arrival unless given notification to move on without them.
Posting out of order referring to the above notice, if found, an admin will remove your post until your turn is available. This is a warning. If it becomes continuous, your account will be taken to extreme measures.
though if there is a talk between two bots they can probably just go ahead, just don't leave everyone behind
When creating an OC, please do not post past relationships with Canon characters, unless APPROVED, by the controller of that Canon. If they deny your history toward the character, then please do not abide yourself as such. If you do, your character will be removed on warning, and next the account if continued.
You can have as many characters as you want, but please keep the limit in to which you can circulate roles to each on a common routine.
Also, any and all complaints, questions or requests made for whatever reason must be posted on the Ask and Admin thread so the problem can be addressed by more then one admin so said problem can be solved faster.
RELATIONSHIPS:
you can have oc-oc slash relationships.
NO Canon Slash
and definitely no OC Canon relastionships or slash
