The X-System [MUST READ!]
I've read it, and technically you can see the persons eyes with masks. Just saying.
O_O read it.

<----- Ninja approves of this message.
I feel terrible. I don't think I broke any rules but if I did I'm sorry.
...I feel like I am going to glance here and find like five Xs next to my name and be like "what did I do? :'("
Mod
When ever I see a three sentences reminder I'm just like: No!!! Wait I had to leave I Promiss I can change it please dot give me an X!!!!! :( I count my sentences over and over then I conclude that my post is definetly three sentences.

Read it and I feel like I'm gonna forget about these rules someday. Well, with the "must read", I'll be coming back here quite often so... >.>

Thanks Rose that makes me feel much better XD. I really like this rp!
Read it. I think it's an interesting method, but it has been read and noted.

Hah. I stick to the 30ish word rule from CAGY >.> But I shall do that.

People have been posting one-liners with no capitalization. It ruins it.

I think what's more annoying than people who break rules are people that join the group make like no comments and are never active.
Read. I pledge to abide by the rules, and swear to face the consequence if I don't.
سارہ سادیا wrote: "I think what's more annoying than people who break rules are people that join the group make like no comments and are never active."That is annoying, but I learned to get over it because some people are that fly on the wall that like to read the roleplay and not participate. I do that with you people. I just comment.

Honestly, people who disobey the rules annoy me more. It's just infuriating, to me, that some people have that much disrespect - or lack thereof - to do such things.

I will obey the rules, although do tell me if I'm passing lines. I would want to know.
Actually these rules are quite basic and easy to follow! I really don't know why anyone would want to disobey them.
Mod
It happens though. All the time. -_-
I read it (actually several times...I just kept forgetting to comment :) ))and I will follow the rules. I shall smack the ones who don't follow the rules upside the head...because this is a beautiful group and "stupid people (pretend these are those little rectangle parentheses (there's none on my iPod)) who don't follow the rules) are dangerous." and they won't ruin this group.
Well so far no one has an X.... That's good!
Was I supposed to comment? Well, if so...I read it.
So does this mean we can't stay with the same partener? We literally have to move on after like a day or something?
Mod
i don't agree with rule 6. the people at this ball are suppose to fall in love right? one of my characters has...but never the less, i read it.

lol yeah. True. I leave a group when I realize how inactive I am on it. That's why I have few groups compared to people.

Guys, that's not what the rule really means. It's saying you shouldn't spend time RPing with just one member, there may be other members that want to RP with your charrie, and what if your charrie ends up liking someone more than the first? And if they don't then they can find the other person again. It's just to get some more interaction between charries. It's perfectly logical.

Yeah, I don't have that many groups, too. Sometimes it's because I'm half-crazy when I decide to leave, but other times it's actually because I'm not really active :D

So basically, we're exempt from the rule once we find that person who actually wants to and we change the relationship status?

I have a question. Sometimes I reply to posts via my smartphone and the lines in the posts don't always match up when I'm on the computer. Will I get an X if I thought it was three lines, but it really wasn't? What if I check it on the computer later on and if it isn't enough, edit it?
I hsave the same problem

XRAY VISION BOOYAHHH!!!
^_^ Yup, I read it and I'm scared shiteluss so I'm pretty sure I'll be sticking to the rules, hehe.
Mod
No, you're fine. But if you're writing everything that's happening with your character: may it be a a scratch, blush, drink, cough, laugh, how pretty it is tonight, etc etc, you should be getting at least three lines. Just consecutive two liners aren't good.
The following is a system that will be devised in following all the rules. Your name will be listed below, in no particular order, and there may or may not be X's by your name. The more X's you have, the more rules you have broken. We have decided a limit to how many X's you may have. If you get to this certain number, which we will not tell you, then you will be banned from the group.
Okay, this is the last straw. We have all explained the rules numberless times to every member that has broken the rules, yet they still break them. There needs to be a system to keeping this RP under control. And it's going to be strict, very strict. I have had people messaging me and complaining about this group, so things are going to change.

If you need to read the rules, here they are:
(view spoiler)[
These are a list of rules that apparently need to be clearly stated. All of them must be followed or you can leave the group. There are no exceptions, if you have any problems with these, send a message personally to one of the mods. Everyone must post here that they read all the rules and will follow them. If someone is posting before they post here, it will be deleted until they read the rules. Sorry to be harsh on everyone, I know some of you are doing great, but these must be followed so this group doesn't get out of control.
RULES:
1. You must roleplay more than two lines in every single post you do. We've just been reminding people of this so many times we're going crazy, so now whenever there is a post less than two lines, it will automatically be deleted, it doesn't matter if someone's posted after or not.
EXAMPLE:
(1)Minnie smiled,"Be a good little mute and I may let you carry me. " She squeezed his hand and (2)then said,"Ummm...I'm not sure." She looked down at her hands, forgetting she even had black (3)gloves on.
I could easily do this as a post if I said three sentences:
He smiled at her. He stood up. He walked to the other room.
The first one is clearly three lines. The other one isn't.
~~~~~~~~~~
2. Proper grammar must be used. We are here writing stories to improve our writing, so let's use the best possible grammar that we have. NO TEXT TALK WHATSOEVER. This is not a cell phone and we don't need to see that type of writing here.
~~~~~~~~~~
3. THIS IS AN ADVANCED ROLEPLAY! The mods here have had plenty of experience with these types of things and they know what they're doing. Follow what they say and actually put forth an effort in your writing. Not, "He nodded. Then walked outside with her." I know every single person in this group can do a whole lot better than that. We expect it.
~~~~~~~~~~
4. Do not cause problems. We do not need rude talk or any drama/crap like that. This is merely a way to improve our writing and have fun. Any troublemakers will be warned, and if it comes down to it, deleted from this group.
~~~~~~~~~~
5. FOLLOW ALL THE RULES THE MODS PUT UP! Some are just for a short period of time, but they must be followed just as much. We make them for the best interest in the group. Any not followed will be messaged, and if needed, deleted from the group.
~~~~~~~~~~
6. Do not stick with one person the entire role play and not let anyone else role play with them. This is a masquerade after all, so you don't see their face, there are over 40 charries made, more will be made every day. Move your character around and meet new people, it is the point of it after all. And we will not take crap like, "But it was love at first sight!". No. Your eyes are covered by masks. Not accepted. End of story. If you don't move around, a mod will definitely get on your back for it.
~~~~~~~~~~
7. All topics here are final. There are no "secret tunnels" (besides the ones in the dungeon) no "hidden escapes" or "convent weapons that they happen to find in a closet". No, any of this type of stuff will be deleted as well. We have explained several times that the plot must be followed, no exceptions.
~~~~~~~~~~
8. Any rules ignored, they will get one warning, a message, and if they still don't oblige...they will be banned from the group permanently.
Yes, these are harsh, but if we were to let everyone do what they want...just imagine. It would get really crazy really fast. Remember, post that you've read this, or anything you role play will be deleted until you comment on this.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOTE FROM AUBREE: Yes, Liz has entrusted me in posting this. She's sick of all of the complaints. And I've gotta say something to all of you who are breaking the rules constantly (you know if you are or aren't) - I don't give a damn about what you've got planned for your character and their stupid romance, but listen to the rules that the mods have given you. They've given them to you for a freaking reason. I'm not sure what I am to them, but to me, Rose and Liz are two of my very best friends, even better than my friends in real life. So show them some respect.
Thank you for reading this.
