Kaiju Region Rules *MUST READ*

Welcome to the Kaiju Region! I'll start off with the basics that everyone, whether you're a trainer, breeder, etc- has to know. And that of course would be the rules of conduct that everyone has to follow, regardless of your position, age, gender, or race. Any violations of the following will not necessarly result in a ban or even a suspension, but of course you should be careful not to violate any of them in the first place. Now then, here we go:

Kaiju Region Rules

• Listen to your staff. We're staff for a reason - and we tend to do what's necessary to keep a certain balance. If we tell you to stop, do so. If you refuse, then you will most likely be banned for a minimum of 24 hours. Repeated offenses may eventually lead to a perma-ban, although that's generally rare.
  
  No trolling. This should go without saying. Be respectful towards your fellow members.
  
  This is a casual site. As such, all posts must be at LEAST 50 words. Now does that mean that if one or two posts are 60 words we're going to bring the banhammer down? No, of course not, but 50 words isn't asking much, it's two, maybe three sentences. Now of course it'd be nice to see more than that, so RP however you like.
  
  Please keep your posts simple! There is absolutely no need for you to center a post or to make everything italicized. You may add color to quotes, and even change the font depending on what it’s for, but please keep it simple.
  
  Because this is a mature site, swearing is allowed. However, excessive profanity will not be tolerated, even if it's completely IC. If you do find it necessary, make sure to at least censor yourself whilst doing so.
  
  If you're posting IC, make sure to tag OOC comments. It gets confusing and frustrating otherwise, and it's nice to keep things tidy.
  
  Avatars should all be equal to or less than 125 pixels in width, so as to avoid stretching out the page and making things unslightly.
  
  Signatures should be kept as short and brief as possible. If you like to make things flashy, please put all of your images and such into a spoiler, so that it doesn't stretch out the page excessively.
  
  If you should by chance see a member disobey the rules, please notify a staff member immediately. Feel free to point them here and explain what they did wrong, but it's a lot easier for the staff if you help us keep track of these things.
  
  Keep in mind that inactive accounts are deleted regularly. If you're going to be away, make sure to say so in the Hello Goodbye section, so that your account isn't deleted due to inactivity. If it is eventually deleted because you failed to do so, then sorry, but you're out of luck. PMing an administrator will do the job as well.
  
  If you have a problem, tell us. If something is bothering you, whether it be a rule, another member, or even one of us staff members - it's always best to point it out rather than wait until you can't hold it in any longer. It's always in our interest to better the site until it's reached it's fullest potential, so anything you have in mind could be truly helpful.
  
  No advertising anywhere other than the advertising forum! Requests for affiliation are welcome.
  
  Roleplay! This is an RP site. If you don't RP, you're not welcome. You must post IC at least twice a month.
  
  And of course, have fun. That's all we're here for after all; not drama.

Character Rules

• You may have up to THREE characters. Please keep ALL of them active! If you don’t make at least 2 posts with each of your characters [at least every month], they will be deleted.
  
  You must have 200 posts with your first character to make another. These are 200 ROLEPLAY posts. If you would like a second and a third character you must first have 200 posts with your previous character.
  
  Register with different account depending on your character. Self explanitory - but please make it clear that it is in fact an alternate account. Otherwise it will be considered a violation of the alternate account rule; (You may only have one account per character, putting nearly every member at a three account max.)
  
  Please keep track of your character in a spoiler in your signature. This isn't hard and not really much to ask, you just have to be responsible for yourself. Keep track of your money, items, and of course pokemon for when they level up, evolve, or learn new moves. Just remember, staff will check regularly to make sure there is no cheating and consequences will be severe if you are in fact caught cheating.

RP Rules

• This is a rated M RP board. However, there is to be no in depth sexual encounters, or excessive profanity, whether it be IC or OOC. Any violation of this rule generally results in a temporary ban, after being warned once. So yes you can have relations with someone of the opposite gender but don't go into detail. When things start to heat up, just say everything faded to black and continue RPing as if it's the next morning.
  
  Our system is GMed based; our moderators supply members IC with NPC, wild pokemon, etc. Members cannot decide their own encounters, and moderators like wise, cannot mod themselves. It's an interactive RP.
  
  As noted before, you MUST RP post at least twice a month. In my opinion, that in itself is exceptionally minimal, but I understand that everyone is limited to their internet due to school, work, etc. But remember, if you're gonna be inactive for a while, PM an admin or post in farewells to help us keep track of things.
  
  No liquid time. What is that? Liquid time is when you're in two places or more at the same time. This means you can't be in Cojawa Village in one open topic and fighting the Delridge Gym Leader in another open topic. However, on this site we do allow you to have a training topic at the same time as an open topic. The training topic must be in the same area as your character's regular topic currently is.
  
  Don't godmod. Duh.
  
  Don't godmode either. Characters will immediately be turned down if they're given too many exceptional qualities. Keep in mind that "being a genious" doesn't matter so much, but having telepathy or being able to talk with pokemon is a bit too much. Just a tad. Point taken?
  
  As mentioned before don't add levels to your pokemon, if they were not earned fair and square. I do personally try to keep track and make sure that nobody is cheating, and yes, it's impossible for me to keep track of everyone. But really - what's the fun in cheating? There is none, exactly. If you do choose to cheat however, be careful that you don't make it blantantly obvious. Anyone caught cheating will have their inventory and party depleted as punishment. After a warning, of course.
  
  You ARE allowed to skip areas. You can go whenever you want, and we can all simply say that you passed through a given area passively.

Discipline

• First offense results in a warning, with a few exceptions. These exceptions include: spamming of any kind, linking anything related to porn, and excessive god modding.
  
  Second offense results in another warning, or a temporary ban, ranging from 24 to 48 hours.
  
  Anything past a second offense generally results in a temporary ban, ranging from 48 to an entire week. This ban may differentiate between the board itself and the c-box. It's usually both, though.

Spoiler:

All of the above also apply in each of the forum c-box. Displinary actions are the equivalent there as they would be on the forum itself.
