I. The Basics
[un] - This site is set in the sophomore school year of Jimmy and friends. If you are joining a character that is not in the original show, please bear that in mind. If you join the site as a character from the show are are inactive or become unfit to the needs of that specific character, you will be issued a warning. If you do not improve past then, you will be deleted.
[deux] - Retroville Advanced is meant to be realistic to the characters and age. Here in Retroville, we all (except possibly Sheen) act like humans, so please don't join as some sort of crazed serial killer who murders people with a gourmet knife. This is not Stephen King, nor is it Martha Stewart
[trois] - No power-playing, god-moding, or Mary- or Gary-Sue characters will be endured. The actions corrosponding with other people’s characters can only be controlled by them, as your characters can only be controlled by you. Not everything can be avoided, neither can your character be better than everyone else. The only exceptionally special people, really, are Jimmy and Sheen, if for different reasons.
Bad Example: Alex thought about his horrible life (which, of course, everyone in the world laments) as he rushed toward the huge boy and kicked him hard, knocking him down and hurting him badly.
Good Example: Alex rushed toward Bo angerly, thinking about his average life, and aimed a kick, hoping to do at least some damage to the larger boy.
[quatre] - On the issue of censorship, I’m not going to rag on people for swearing. Teenagers do swear. Get used to it. As for sex and such... keep it out of Retroville Advanced, as no one wants to read two people cybering in character or out. Please, no swearing on the Out Of Character boards, though. You can get banned for a week if you are caught saying anything outside “damn” or “hell”.
[cinq] - Please, please, PLEASE sign up with a different username for each character you play! Don’t play two on one account! That said, one can have as many characters as they please, though only one original to each account, unless the administrator (me!) permits otherwise.
II. Roleplaying
[un] - Please be as descriptive as possible. No one-liners, as they are annoying. In fact, no one-paragraphers either. Use two paragraphs or above, 4-6 sentances each. This is Retroville ADVANCED.
[deux] - Use novel form on all posts. No asterisks or anything; don’t seperate your actions from your words with anything but quotation marks. Colors and such are allowed. No chatspeak, and please use third person narration and past tense on all posts.
Bad Example: *I see my friend and waves.* Hi, Rachel!
Good Example: While walking down the street, Scott spotted his friend and waved at her. “Hi Rachel!” he said.
[trois] - You must stay active. Without activity, what is a roleplay but an abandoned website? The term “active” entitles at least one post every two weeks and at least one login per week. After two months of being inactive, your account will be deleted. If you are going away for over a week, post on the Absenses board, and you will not be deleted.
III. Joining
[un] - There is basically only one thing I have to say for joining. You will only be accepted if you email me a sample post. I have to make sure that one is a capable enough writer to be able to provide sufficiant material for other capable writers to respond to. If you are joining your own character, please email me their information as well as your sample post at equestrian.blondie@comcast.net, and you’re set to go! If I am on vacation or am gone for some reason, email it to one of my staff! (Find email addresses on the members page)
