Hello, and welcome to Harry Potter 911. The site where drama is wanted, and love is needed. Where evil is committed, and justice is not always served. Yes, the seventh book has already come out. Yes, most of us have already read it. And yes, most of us know what happens in the end. But what if we didn't? What if none of us had read the seventh book, and we had the chance to write the book ourselves? Let's say Harry is in his seventh year, and still has no clue of the prophecy. He doesn't know He is the one to defeat the Dark Lord. Obviously he wants too, but doesn't know it was foretold that he would. What would happen then? Well I wouldn't know Would I? That's for you guys to figure out. That's for us to figure out. We create the lives of the characters on this site. But let me say now that Harry Potter is not mine to own, I cannot say I have written the books. This is in no shape or form, a way to bring down J.K. Rowling, but a way to use our free time and practice our writing skills, creating fan-fiction with the help of our fellow peers.
Now, for this site to work smoothly, I have placed these rules into play. Please follow them, for many things can go wrong if you don't. I will give you a warning now. If I see you breaking the rules multiple times, and making no effort to change, or improve, I will raise your warning level to five. When your level has been raised, I will continue to keep and eye on you to look for improvement, and/or a breach of the rules. Once it has reached fifty, you will receive a warning in a PM. At seventy five you will be suspended, and at one hundred you will be banned. To reduce your warning level, show that you are making an effort to improve and follow the rules.
This is a multi-level site, therefore not everyone will be a great role player, but we do expect you to be experienced, and able to write at least eight sentences in each post. I understand how common writer's block is, but at least try. If you are really stuck, check out the posts help myself or Melody will have posted up. While we are on the topic of posting, the applications do not say how much you have to write. But that does not mean you can write one line for everything and still be accepted. You must remember that each post must be at least ten sentences. Therefore if we do not think you are capable of this, we will not accept you, but make comments and tips as too what to fix.
Please, this is a role playing site, and therefore everything must be in third person I don't want to see and I's and Me's. He She They, are what I want to see. Like I said, you should all be experienced, and should not need to be reminded. Good grammar is a must, the three admins on this site (myself Victoria and Melody) are obsessed with it. There is a spell check at the bottom of every reply tool (Quick reply, and the one where you actually click reply), so use it!
Swearing is allowed, just not every other word. I would be a complete hypocrite if I were to say no to swearing so I have not put up a word sensor. This is also a X Rated site, and therefore many things which cannot happen on other sites can happen here. I don't think I need to say this word for word, I am sure you understand what you mean. All I ask is that you put a warning in your thread title. [X] will do. If the X Rated posts were not expected, please just have the thread starter go back to their first post and modify the title.
I will allow you to have five characters each, but at least too must be male. Believe me, I will know how many characters you have made. If I find you breaking this rule, I will delete how many character's I need too to keep it inside the Limit, and I will choose randomly. I suggest you only make as many characters as you can handle. Remember you must be active with all character's you own. Especially if one is a teacher, there fore you must be on at least every week to post in your lessons.
Keyword is Spice
Please don't make your Banners too big. If it stretches the boards then it will be removed. We are very strict about this and would like to keep this site neat and organized. If possible, we may just resize it so it fits.
Do not make your character as if He/She is perfect. No one can get every guy or girl, and everyone has flaws. Maybe they think they are perfect, but please do not state it as a fact. What your character thinks about themselves is one thing, but what other people think of them is different. Not everyone will like someone, please remember this when you are writing your application. If in posts you can make every guy or girl like you. then good for you! But not in the apps, it will not be accepted.
Please remember that the staff always have the last say. We will listen to what you think, and we will be polite. But please do not attempt to argue with us because it will not work. Although if you tell us something and we see that your point of view is correct, then we may change our choices. Just remember that fighting with the staff will get you no where but banned.
Please keep personal conversations to PMS. Fighting in the chat box will never be accepted, no matter what happened or who started it. Although I may be good friends with many of you, I will not hesitate to suspend your account for harassing my other members. If someone is saying things to you which you do not like, let me know and I will solve it right away.
These rules are not written in stone and can therefor be changed. If ever myself or Melody or Victoria decide to change the rules we will let you know and add it to the list.
