General Posting Rules, All New Members MUST Read

[Vincent Arion Riguel]

VAMPIRE'S CONVENT CODE OF CONDUCT

These following regulations and guidelines are meant to sustain orderly and fair conduct throughout the entire vampire convent. These rules are focused generally on Out of Character posts, but are not limited to. Any member found breaking the rules will be warned once before disciplinary action is taken.

• Before all else, Respect is to be shown to every member of our convent. I do not expect a person to always get along with every member of the site, but that does not mean that you can't be civil and courteous to them. This maintained and mutual level of respect is the very basis that supports our site, so you would do well not to disturb it.
  
  
• Going along with the theme of respectful treatment of all other members, Verbal Attacks and Slandering are STRICTLY PROHIBITTED. This includes and is not limited to racial, sexual, and stereotypical slurs or jokes, threatening, swearing excessively, and discriminatory remarks. Please, the reasons as to why should be obvious. No warnings will be given for a member seen participating in such activities. They will have their account suspended for three days minimum.
  
  
• The Staff of Vampire's Convent are fine with a limited amount of swearing and profanities. However, please keep in mind that there are members of this site who are scare thirteen years old (and some possibly younger). Threads containing explicit scenes and violent language should be labled in the title appropriately (ex. PG-13, R, NC-17).
  
  
• Please do not post any links or pictures leading to pornographic/explicit websites. This includes pictures in your profile, links, and posted images, mind you. Anyone caught posting such links and/or images will have the offending object(s) removed from their profile and their posting abilities limited. Repeat offenders will be banned.
  
  
• When posting on any forum, please try your very best to use grammatically correct English and correct spellings. I understand entirely that not all of our members are native English speakers, but I do ask that you at least make an attempt at correct phrasing. Shorthand (how r u, cuz, l8r) is unacceptable, and at any rate extremely annoying. Remember, when I say rain, you say storm. Also, please refrain from using l337 and other unspoken computer languages that are floating around out there. These languages make it harder for those of us who are not native English speakers to understand what you are saying. Warnings will be issues, but those who continue with such dialect will have their posting rights limited.
  
  
• Lastly, in order to keep the forum looking clean and loading fast, all signature images must be within 600 pixels (width) x 250 pixels (height) and 200 kilobytes, or else they will be deleted.
  
  

Having said all that, I hope you find Vampire's Convent to be a good place to stay and roleplay.

Vincent Arion Riguel, Ruler of the Assierian Convent
