How To Roleplay

==How To Roleplay==
If your going to roleplay successfully on this site, remember the following:
One: I require use of two or more 100x100 icons above your characters post. The icons should have something to do with your post. The icons can be the same one twice or two entirely different ones. The icons are to represent a facial expression, clothing, ect... something to help as a presentation for your post.
Two: I require you to put the words your character speaks in bold and you must use “” and a comma before or after. Example: Brittany let out an uncontrolled mutter, “Oh Well.”
Three: I require you to put words your character thinks in italic. You are required to use ‘’ and a comma before or after. Example: Brittany couldn’t help but think to herself, ‘Where, oh, where did he go?’
Four: I require when your posting to have your character in the third person. Example: Brittany growled deeply as she watched her opponent.
Five: I suggest when you are posting to refer to everything in past-tense.
Six: Remember it's fun when you make your posts colorful! Just remember to choose a color that is readable.
Seven: I require that you write properly. No slang or text talk, unless that happens to be what the character is saying or typing in a text. Also, spell check before you post please. 
What to do: “Hey You,” asked Brittany with a smile on her face as she continued on, “Whatca Up To?” She followed her question with a giggle. 
What not to do: “Hey U,” asked Brittany with a =) as she continued on, “Wazzzzz Up? Lol”
Eight: I require you don't "god-mode". You must get hurt, you must not overpower your character, you must give other characters a chance to block or duck attacks, ect. You may 'hope' or 'suggest' the damange your character wants to be done. Just be logical and remember good fights last longer then a few seconds.
What to do: Brittany punched Buffy with all her strength which Brittany hoped would at least knock Buffy a crossed the room and maybe even possibly knock her out.
What not to do: Brittany punched Buffy; which in return sent Buffy flying a crossed the room and knocking her out.
Nine: I require that you ask before seriously injuring or killing off a character. Meaning, you must have an admins permission before posting so. Same thing applies to characters getting pregnant (in which the male and female character must approve of this).
Ten: I suggest that you don't make the roleplay entirely based on your character, otherwise people won't want to roleplay with you character(s).
Eleven: I require each post to have at least 250 words.
Twelve: I require no OOC talk in posting areas, please do that in pms or the OOC area. OOC = Out Of Character.
