GENERAL
[li]Absolutely no god-modeling, powerplaying, ooc racism or sexism, flamers, one-liners, mary-sues, gary-stus or any other frowned up behaviors. We aim to be a community where everybody can feel like they're welcome. You have two chances - offense #1 earns you a warning. Offense #2 earns you a ban. Of course, if it's your first offense but it's really bad, we'll just ban you.[/li]
[li]Do not steal. This means characters, back-stories, avatars, signatures, or anything anybody else has made that is their own.[/li]
[li]One account per character. Remember to post from the right account. Only Admins and Mods get OOC accounts. When you register, you should put the name of your character as the name of the account.[/li]
[li]Use the provided template. Your character will not be accepted otherwise.
[/li][li]No duplicates. You may not claim the same face-claim as another person. This means if Admin Ever claims Kim Jaejoong, nobody else may be able to use his face.
[/li][li]We have a 250 word limit minimum for posting. If you are found to be grossly under the limit most of the time, you will be first warned and then banned. It is understandable if you fall under the limit every now and then. Just don't let it happen too often.
[/li][li]Ages are in Korean years, not international years.[/li]
[/ul]
ROLEPLAYING
[li]This board will be rated PG-13. By that, it means cussing is allowed. But don't cuss in every single sentence. Also, that means if your characters are starting to get a little handsy...take it to the Wordpress.[/li]
[li]On that note, everything from fluff to angst to drama to...whatever the hell you want is going to be accepted. You may RP explicit things, but when that happens, take it OFFSITE. The Wordpress account is there for R-18+ things to happen. You MAY NOT RP IT OUT IN PERSONAL MESSAGES. You can, of course, RP it over e-mail or messenger if you don't want the other members of Genesis to view it.[/li]
[li]When you first join, you are given two free trainee character slots. Everybody starts as trainees. You must purchase anything else from the shop - including more character slots.[/li]
[li]You may only face-claim one member of a group. For example, Admin Kyu has claimed Lu Han from EXO. This means she cannot claim anybody else from EXO to use as the face of one of her characters.
[/li][li]YOU MAY NOT USE FANTAKEN OR FAN-MADE PHOTOS OR EDITS. A lot of fan-sites do not appreciate it when you use their photos without them knowing. Use only official photos. This means magazine scans and teasers and whatnot are all okay. Photos taken by fans are not. Do not try to crop out the watermarks or your character will be automatically rejected.[/li][/ul]
[/li][li]Do not post until your character has been accepted.[/li]
[li]No god-modding or power playing. Period.
[/li]
[/ul]CBOX
Inactivity/Hiatus
[li]If you are inactive for a week without notice, you will be given a warning and a two-day grace period in which to answer the warning. Inactivity for another week will result in expulsion and the freeing of your face-claim.[/li]
[li]You may reserve a face-claim for three days, by which you should have put up the WIP. Your WIP must be finished within 2 weeks or else it will be moved into Dropped & Denied WIPs. Failure to finish your WIP will also result in the freeing of the face-claim.[/li]
[li]There will be activity checks.[/li]

[/ul]CBOX
- Welcome the new people. We know it's intimidating going on a new roleplaying site - but when everybody welcomes you and falls at your feet wanting to plot and roleplay, that's when it makes the admins really happy and it makes the newcomers really happy. That also means...
- Introduce yourself in the chat! We want to talk to you!
- Do not advertise another roleplay in the cbox or you will be automatically banned. We have an advertising board. Use it.
- Do not flood the Cbox.
- Don't start drama in the Cbox.
