The Rules of the Site
- No Spamming: Basics of the basics. Do not post multiple times in a row in a thread, do not only reply as OOC in an IC thread and do not advertise in a non advertisement section.
- PG-13 Material: Devil May Cry is a M rated game but pro boards TOS is PG-13 so this will have to do. Violence and swearing shall be tolerated In Character as well as some sexual innuendoes. Keep it classy people, don't go too into detail about those corpses you decided to kill so it makes other people throw up, don't have your character have such a dirty mouth all the time and please, fade to black when something's "going on". Also for OOC content, don't post porn or downright disgusting images.
- Number of Threads: The max number of threads a person can be in is two. One In Character thread and One Mission thread. Liquid time is not supported.
- Templates Follow them. Templates here And make sure your stuff is approved before you use it in a thread.
- No threatening other users: Any emotional abuse, severe name calling and harassment will lead to being banned. Report it to any staff members if seen.
- Respect: Respect the staff and respect other members, whether they be old or new. Do not discriminate people based on age, ethnicity and other aspects. We're here to have fun.
- No trolling: Some of you aren't familiar with trolling but I'll explain. It's deliberately baiting someone with a provocative message(s) to get them angry. Avoid this.
- Keep the drama out: No one likes drama, we're here to write our character's lives, not fight amongst ourselves. If I see any drama in topics on this forum, I'll delete them all.
- No Canon Weapons: Your character is not allowed to use canon weapons at the start. However, you might earn them form something else. *nudge nudge*
- Multiple Accounts: We allow multiple accounts on this forum. Just remember that it's one character per account. And if you want two characters in the same thread then it will require that one account's posts be taken away at the end of the thread.
- Play by the rules: No metagaming, power playing or godmodding while rping. Your OOC knowledge of the character will not affect the circumstances in character.
- Characters from other texts: Do not rip a whole character from a series and place them on the site, this will not work. If you want to use a character's image for a character thats fine, just fill out a face claim on your template. For example: Using The tenth Doctor from Doctor Who as a face claim is fine, just don't don't rip everything off and have him going around in the tardis.
- Bayonetta's Lumen Sages and Umbra Witches: It's been confirmed that Devil May Cry and Bayonetta are taking place in the same universe/world but the Lumen Sages are extinct and Umbra Witches are damn well near it. So, they will not be allowed to be played. If you want a witch character, you can but avoid Bayonetta references. Besides we would have to restrict Witch Time and Light Speed, that's not fun.
- Angel-demon Hybrids: Angel-Human hybrids? Fine. Fallen angel? Again, fine. However if an angel and a demon love each other very much, they should not have a child. Seriously, I don't care about the reboot's Dante being an Angel-Demon hybrid but there's going to be none of that here. They would be too powerful and it wouldn't be fair.
