Rules:
1. An Admin’s word is FINAL. No complaints or taking your anger out on the site. If you feel the ruling was wrong, submit GOOD reasons as to why you believe this is so and your case will be reviewed.
2. Everyone has 3 chances
3. Be courteous to your fellow rpers! Do not be rude or mean. Everyone has just as much a right to be here as you do. Please use good grammar and writing skills.
4. Criticism is to be used only for constructive purposes. Do not pm a fellow rper. Take the matter to your admins and allow them to handle it.
5. If you have a problem with a rule, person or admin, there is a suggestions and complaints board where you may post anonymously. If the matter is urgent, you should pm Spirithawk. Your concerns are important to us. Do not be afraid to voice your complaints, concerns or ideas that may make Dark Moon a better site.
6. No deaf, blind, or seriously disabled characters. There are good reasons for this. Your character bios must be a bit detailed. We want to be able to get a picture of your character in our minds.
7. No Perfect Characters. All people have flaws, make yours have flaws as well.
8. Do NOT beg for a specific color. You will NOT get it. You may request a color for specific reasons but that does not mean you will get that color.
9. Mutations are not up for grabs. They must be earned. Currently 1 mutie per rper (subject to change).
10. No gold-only characters. You will be waiting for a long time.
11. Make only as many characters as you can handle. If you prove you can handle more, you will be allowed more. This is subject to Admin approval. If you cannot handle them don’t make them. This means your characters must be actively rped.
12. New characters go in the pending characters board. A stamp from Hawk OR two stamps from the admin staff is required before you can rp with your character.
IC Rules
1. Use original names. Names must be Pernese-ish. For name ideas rinkworks.com/namegen/
2. Only use Pernese oaths like Scorch it, Shells, Shard it, etc. For more examples, see the General Information Board.
3. Please refrain from speaking in OOC in the RP boards, we have an OOC board for that and if you must speak in OOC please use OOC: ((text here)) and when you return to in character put IC:
4. We will NOT allow HAFs (Hear all flitters) these do not exist.
5. HADs are rare and DM only has four spaces. There is currently 1 HAD. We will award HADS only to those who apply for them and have proven that they can handle the responsibility.
6. Female Candidate ages range from 14-20.
7. Males range from 14-19.
8. You MUST rp your Candidate before the Hatching and they must attend the hatching if you want them to Impress. Do NOT beg for a color. If you do, you will be left standing. The color your character gets is determined by charry personality and your rping skills. If you are left standing, don’t be mad, you will probably get a better dragon the next time you stand and if your Candidate is going to get mauled, let them! Candidates must wear ceremonial white robes and sandals.
9. Candidates can have a maximum of three pets. Riders may have five.
10. Keep the site PG-13
11. If you have a dragon, use the following colors for their words:
12. Please use regular sized fonts. It is easier to read for all of us. Only dragon words (and special things from the WLM or WW) are allowed to be changed into a different color in the rp boards.
13. This is a multi-paragraph rp. Please try to post at least 2 paragraphs per post. 1 paragraph is fine occasionally but not every time.
Disclaimer: This is the world of Anne McCaffrey;
Please don't use any of the Character names for your own, and do not use Benden or Ruatha in a plot. You may mention them, but don't use them.
Happy Rping
