     Rules weren't made to be broken. There'd be no point in putting all that effort into making them in the first place if that's all that was gonna happen to 'em, you know. We put a lot of effort into writing these stupid things up; you aren't supposed to break them.
     These were made to keep order, you know; or at least keep people (largely) from being offended. They are to be followed, and if they are not you will recieve a stern warning; you may also recieve several depending on the mood I'm in at the time, and -- depending on the offense -- you may be placed on restriction, denied a request, or outright banned. We've banned a lot of people for the worst offense here, you know...

P O S T I N G

   1 ] Try and spell correctly, and avoid using things like 'u' and 'lik' and '2'. Especially friggin 'u'. That doesn't mean "you", that means "uh". Can't really do anything about this, admittedly, but it becomes infuriating when everything is done via text and we can only understand you from what you write.
   2 ] Don't be disrespectful; being blatantly disrespectful will get you banned immediately, while making a joke in extremely poor taste (not just poor taste; I make jokes in poor taste all the time, but extremely poor taste) will earn you a severe verbal whipping.
   3 ] As the corrollary to that statement, don't be overly sensative to anything people say; unless they are being blatantly offensive for the sole purpose of offending somebody, don't bother calling them on it, and take a step back, and maybe laugh a bit. Laughter makes everything better.
   4 ] Spam will get you banned EVERY TIME. End of discussion.
   5 ] Just because the site is for "mature audiences only" -- much like our underground school publication "Monacle and Top Hat" -- it doesn't give you the right to drop f-bombs everywhere and swear up-and-down the computer screen. You can get your point across well enough without it. I admit to indulging in swearing, but if you keep it in moderation (repeat: moderation), it's all good.
   6 ] Do. Not. Talk. Politics. You can comment on a real-world event if the time is appropriate, but if you talking politics I won't let you do so without explaining to you in great detail why you shouldn't talk politics. This is for an escape from reality, you know; don't bring that crap up here.

   1 ] When signing up, fill out the form neatly, properly, and in the message box (saving it to a word processor document usually screws up the formatting). Try and keep the formatting; I'm aware that FireFox doesn't allow you (which is the entire reason I don't use FireFox), but try to, a'right? Makes everything easier for us.
   2 ] After you post a profile, please wait until we verify it. Profile updates (along with any other updates for that matter) can take up to 7 days. We are busy, busy people with, surprisingly enough, priorities higher than your profile and this site. If the profile hasn't been updated after a week and you see us posting prolifically elsewhere and blatantly ignoring your profile, then you're within your rights to say "You're jerks".
   3 ] Please bear in mind that this is an alter-reality Digital World (hence its differentiate as "Terminus"). As such, bear in mind the following: the original DigiDestined were never here, are not here, and will never be here. This means that you absolutely cannot sign up as any character from the show; you cannot sign up as a descendent/relation/friend of any character on the show; and events that happened in show canon do not have any bearing on this site.
   4 ] Do NOT play another person's character for any reason unless they are a Universal NPC (anybody can use them) or you've been given permission. This can cause some confusion, and many hard feelings if a character is played improperly or, more often, if an attack is landed by another character that the controlee would have been able to get out of to begin with (this is especially applicable to high-end, killer-app attacks; if somebody has a way out of dying, they'll definitely wind up taking it).
   5 ] Be realistic with your character. They might be the incarnation of Satan (or their Digimon might be), but they are not going to start with that much power. This makes it better on everybody; though your character and Digimon can have peculiar pasts, that's no reason they can't be 'level' with everybody else. What particularly upsets me: when people describe their Digimon as far more than they should be and inflate their abilities preposterously. Statements like "he's the most feared Rookie-level Digmon EVAH!" will get you bitch-slapped.
   6 ] Try and be active; if you do not post after a certain amount of time, your character and their Digimon will be deleted, or relegated to the purpose of being an NPC.
   7 ] You may have two different player characters. However, if you don't use one, and we don't think they're cool enough, they will be destroyed like everybody else in the member purge.
   8 ] For the love of god, do not play a character from another anime and do not play a character that would belong in another anime. At the least, don't play them like they're from another anime. If you want your character to be named Cloud Strife, just be aware that the Cloud Strike you're playing is probably a nerdy sixteen-year-old, not a badass failed Sephy clone with disrupted memories whose girlfriend got stabbed by a bishi badass (oh... um... Spoilers: Aeris dies in FF-7). This is a DIGIMON RPG, and should be played according to COMMON SENSE DIGITAL WORLD RULES.

T R A I N I N G - A N D - R O L E P L A Y

   1 ] Though you may technically post trainings as often as you like, you must wait for validation of an update before continuing; anything done before this validation (but after the first training in line) will be ignored, and your first training may, as a result, also be ignored.
   2 ] Each enemy in the Bestiary lives in a certain part of the island; you may only fight these enemies unless you post the profile for a new one. If you wish to post a new one, do so on the Laboratory board. You'll know if we take issue; if we don't, then it's all right to use 'em.
   3 ] Be fair in all ye seek to do. If you try and godmode to the extent that it completely disrupts somebody else's game, you will recieve a warning, and possibly be banned if the offenses pile up against you.
   4 ] Unless an individual has an NPC profile for themselves up, or you were given permission by them, you are not allowed to use somebody else's player character in your trainings as an NPC, mostly for the fact that you may play them wrong; and character defamation can get people really angry.

C O N T E N T

   1 ] Hentai and porn will not be tolerated; anybody found to be proliferating this sort of content will be BANNED
   2 ] No cybering or such sexual content. If you can't get some in real life, that's you're problem.
   3 ] Though they are not banned outright, romances are discouraged (usually because they're overblown and make me gag). Even if you think it's a great love story, trust me; you're probably wrong.
