-The Rules- Temp_110

-Read the rules before posting, and follow them when posting. Inform a staff member if someone is breaking a major rule, and it's bothering you. Don't just skim the rules. You could miss something important, which can result in a ban.

-Please do NOT advertise your site, it is very rude, as we worked to get the members that we have and the possibility of them leaving for you site isn't very pleasing, just don't do it, ever.

-Do not role-play until your character is accepted. You can create a character to role-play with This Template.

-One account per person. Don't share one account with family members, it can get confusing. If that person does not have an e-mail, it is very simple to create one. We have a nice list of IP's, so if 2 are the same, I'll be questioning you. Of course, it's fine to have siblings with different accounts.

-No telling others personal information. You can not tell anyone your phone number, the street you live on, etc. Note that the view online page is normally incorrect; it normally gets towns wrong. All stalkers out there, this site won't help you stalk people.

-Do not tell any members your password, unless they're family and already know it. Even staff. We can not access your password, so it is not okay to tell us.

-No Harassing, threatening, bothering, or being rude to others. If someone is bothering you, don't be rude to them back. Contact a staff member if it's getting on your nerves.

-No hating on others, please, especially not Pita <3

-Please listen to staff members. They created the site, and they can do what they want with it. If we have multiple members disagreeing with staff, we'll try to fix the problem.

-Please read through the Arena Guide Topics to know how to Roleplay with your tribute in the Arena


-The Rules- Temp_310


-Mild cursing is allowed, but keep it to a minimum, PG-13.

-No Sexual talk. Try to keep at a PG-13 level.

-A character can only be in one place at once.

-No Mary-Sues. A Mary-Sue is the general term for a character that is perfect beyond reality. You'll need your character to have a few flaws.

-Characters cannot be in any district other than their own.

-Maximum 7 characters.

-Your characters must age at the end of each games, to keep things realistic, we know it's not a favoured rule, but it is to be done. Victors often age, but then their friends don't and it turns out unfortunately, although in the points shop you are more than welcome to buy a coupon and save a character from aging for two games!

-No god-modding; when your character does something without letting the other character to react.
Example:

Bob wrote:
Bob saw a figure in the distance. Startled to see someone else near the usually vacant beach, he quickly brought out his bow and arrows. Alarmed, he fired an arrow at the figure. The arrow cut right through Joe's heart; killing him.


Joe wrote:
OOC: Hey! I don't want my character to die!

Joe saw someone else coming. Startled, he prepared to scramble away, when an arrow came flying at him. It barely missed his head. Scared, he dashed away from the sandy beach.


None of that. You'll need to agree with the other member first, plus, you'll get an annoyed member.

-No powerplaying; when you attempt to control things or characters that your character doesn't have control over. In our games, your hits are not guaranteed, because your character would not have control over their environment. The dice will tell you whether your attacks and blocks and healing attempts were successful or not, so it's fair.

-No Chat speak in role-playing posts. Exceptions are when your character is saying it, like "OMG," or "BRB," but not like, "Ur nice."

-Do not post twice in a row. In the corner of your post, there's an edit button. If your post reached the second page in the topic list, it is fine to double post to bump it back up. If it happens again, there is NO triple posting. This especially applies to role-plays.

-No spamming-- don't post anything that makes no sense, or has no significance to the topic it is posted in.

-Proper grammar in role-play posts, and I strongly advise it in out of character posts too. Caps at the beginning of a sentence, add periods and commas, separate all words with a space, proper spelling, etc.

bob walked 2 the beech and there was no 1 there this topic is open.


The grammatical errors are very noticeable so please don't do it, we have a RP school for a reason, so please seek help, nothing wrong with doing so.

-There is a 4 sentence minimum for posting on the site, any less, staff members have the right to tell you to post longer, if you need to learn how then you can do such by going to the rp school.

-No spamming-- don't post anything that makes no sense, or has no significance to the topic it is posted in.


-The Rules- Temp_410

-If you have any questions PM a staff member about it!

DISCLAIMER: This is the HUNGER GAMES, if your tribute dies in the games, it is not the fault of the killer, or anyone else who attacked you, it is not the fault of the Gamemaker, its the Hunger Games, people die, you have a 1 in 24 chance of winning, don't be surprised if you die, and don't complain about it, it just annoys other people.
