| Rules of the Forum General1. Be courteous to one another! Regardless of ranks, you should treat every single member in a respectful way. Treat others the way you want to be treated. 2. Keep everything at an appropriate level (that means PG). Take anything inappropriate to private messages and please don't curse - we'd prefer not to expose our members to vulgar language. 3. Try your best to be literate. Roleplay posts must have a minimum of four sentences. 4. Do not spam, troll or flame. This includes cyber bullying. If you need to post twice, use the edit button. 5. We understand that at times life gets kind of hectic, but make an effort to be online! If you're never on, how will you get in on the fun of roleplaying? 6. Do not fight each other. If you feel the need to argue, please take it to private messages. 7. Multiple accounts are not allowed. If found with a double account, one of your accounts will be banned. 8. Do not try to find loop holes in the rules. 9. There is no excuse for breaking the Rules. Regardless of whether you had a rough day at school, or got into a fight, or are just not feeling too great, you should still abide by the Rules. If you feel you cannot be online without breaking the Rules, then do yourself a favor, as well as everyone else, and take a break. 10. Do not post on behalf of a banned user. Roleplay Related1. Canon characters are only allowed to be roleplayed by the admins and the appropriate canon roleplayers. 2. You allowed to have up to 7 characters. However, there are special requirements for children of the big three - they are explained in the Character Templates and Information topic. If these rules are broken, the appropriate actions will be administered. Please inform us if someone decides to break a rule. Also, if you have any questions about the rules, feel free to shoot a message to any one of the admin.

| I just realized, there is nothing against double accounting in the rules, and I'm pretty sure there was previously... I don't think we should be allowed to double account... So, er, did you forget to add it, or can we? | |

| So wait... Only administrators can play canon characters? And everyone else has to make up OCs? That's quite strange! ._.

| Well they can't just let some random person sign up and then become one of the Major Characters of the series. | |

| Well, I suppose that's true. However, there's always the option of an audition thread to see if this said 'random person' is capable of taking on a lead role in the RP. An RP that's prominently based off of original characters may as well just be a fictional novel on it's own, I suppose. | |

| Think of it like this, how many people here would want to be Percy? Or Annabeth? Or Thalia? Or how about one of the Gods? Or even one of the Titans? There's too many people and simply not enough options, so it's best if the Moderator's take care of the roles which everyone would seek to get - It's not as if the roles are out of reach for you, but you simply have to work towards them.
If you want only the characters from the book, then there's simply not enough of them to hold an accurate role play - Not to mention, you're wrong. All role play like this is based off a series, whether it be a novel, numerous novels, a movie, numerous movies or more than one of those options - Has these same guidelines that it follows.
In layman's terms - There's too many people and not enough characters.
Plus, it almost sounds as if you want to 'audition' for an important role - But you've only been here for a day, and you haven't even made a character yet. | |

| Hmm.....just a quick question...is liquid time allowed? (Where you're allowed to post on more than one thread with the same character at the same time) | |

| I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but how long does it usually take for a character to get approved? | |

| not the right place....
but it just depends on when staff can get to it. check the chatbox and you can see if someone on staff is on and ask them to approve it.
They will let you know if it is approved or if you need to change some stuff. | |
