We know some of you don't like rules, but if we didn't have them then most people would find the site less fun.

General
- Keep everything PG13 or under. If you want to go above PG-13, use PMs, or better yet stay off this site for that sort of thing. There are several good sites with no rating limit, like Tumblr as long as you tag it, and I'd rather not get this one deleted by Proboards because someone broke the terms of service.
- You can have as many characters as you want per account, if when you roleplay you tell us what character you are roleplaying as. However, you may only have one Player character at a time. When your Player character has either been eliminated or has won the game (and become a Reaper, Shopkeeper, or has gone back to Life; Your Player may not play the game again the same week that you have another Player playing.), you may create another Player provided that you edit your first Player's bio to reflect that has happened.
- All characters start out as Players or Noise. Players can advance later to other ranks. Noise can eventually become Players if they can erase enough people to get their soul back.
- Please try and post or at the very least be on at least once a week. We'll understand if you can't, just let me know why please. I'm certainly not perfect either. If you're inactive for over a week, your account will be listed as Erased, but if you come back I'll change it back.
- Character applications must be completed within a month of when a character is made. If they are not finished by then, that application will be declined. If you come back you may finish the application.
- You may have as many characters as you want in many threads in many places at any time. However, please have only one application pending or WIP at a time. You must wait until that one is accepted or declined before making a new one. Please also have only one Player in each game.
- No perfect characters with no flaws. You can buy more powers and pins in the store, or earn them after defeating others in battle.
- Be nice and treat others with respect, even if they don't deserve it. I can ban you if you are rude to a rper (note that I said rper, not character. Some characters are rude to other characters, and that is that).
- We do get a little crazy here, so feel free to be creative with your characters. Just remember that they were human before they died, and check the shop to make sure that a power you want doesn't have to be bought first.
- Have fun! Posting isn't meant to be a chore.
In Character
- No god-modding, spamming, power-playing, metagaming, killing off others without their permission, altering the plot big time without staff permission, etc. If you don't know the meaning of these terms, PM a staff member and we will be happy to tell you.
- This site has a minimum of 50 words per rp post. Yes, I know it's tiny. Personally I write a lot more than that, but this site is open to beginners, and we're trying to make you feel welcome. By the way, the password thing for the app is 'Sometimes the best battle is the battle you don't fight.' For those who can write more, feel free. For those who stay around 50 words, just do your best. Writing does take practice.
- Another thing we're open about is pairings, as long as you keep them in character. Drama is kinda fun and funny here, as long as it's not between members. Pairings are fun.
- Not everything that affects the main plot of the story has to affect everything else that goes on.
- Speaking of the main plot, if anyone has any ideas, speak up! I don't want to be the only one working on this, and I'd love lots of member involvement if you want.
- Your character may start off with one pin of your choice. After that, you must either get pins from defeating Noise or buy them from the Shops. Powers can only be bought from shops.
- Your entry fee must be the most important thing to your character. Otherwise, it's a quirk, not a major weakness.
