InsaneJournal

Maturity! This should be self-explanatory because you see the same rule on every single game. Don't be a shithead! It's as simple as that; don't start fights, don't cause drama, don't dwell on things. If you're here to troll we really don't care and we really don't have time for you.

If you do find yourself in such a situation that could and/or has already cause/d drama, talk to a mod. I know that sounds really weird and Oprahish, but we're seriously laid back and will help you guys sort through what you need to.

Activity! Since some people prefer threading over journal entries and others vice-versa, all we ask is that you update your character somehow once every three weeks. You've got a one-week probation after that period, and then we look for a new player. If you're going away drop a line to a mod or in the OOC and your place is safe.

As a note, Hexennacht is a very active game. Though we are also incredibly friendly and love our players (new and old!), we do ask that you be aware of this before applying, as it has a tendency to overwhelm some people, and lead to inactivity. We try to make plot points as accessible as possible, but it is also up to the mun to keep up to date and read their friends lists!

Common sense! No Mary-Sues and the like, please. If you're looking to play something slightly outlandish (things like half-Veelas fit into this category) PM the account and we'll see what we can do.

Don't godmod, blah blah blah. Don't assume; generally everyone's pretty okay with whatever you can dish out, but if you have a shadow of a doubt, please just double-check before you go through with it.

Communication! We are a very social group and encourage you to get involved! The primary messenger we use is MSN, which can be used by any e-mail so long as you have a Passport. If you're feeling lost and confused about this just ask and we can help. [:

Big stuff! If you plan on killing a character TALK TO A MOD FIRST. Come and say "Hey, I want to kill off Johnny." then give me a reason. I'm not going to say "no" automatically or anything, it's just one of those things mods like to know.

Roleplaying! Can be done in threads or AIM logs, posted with the regular criteria at the top (who, what, where/when, rating). Please put ALL THREADS AND LOGS behind a cut!

Standard thread and log form are:
<b>Who:</b> <b>What:</b> <b>Where:</b> <b>When:</b> <b>Rating:</b> Only include the rating if it's something requiring a warning. <lj-cut text="cut tag">BODY HERE</lj-cut> <b>Who:</b> <b>When/where:</b> <b>Summary:</b> <b>Status:</b> Complete/in progress. <lj-cut text="cut tag">BODY HERE</lj-cut>

Character limit! Four, to start with. You'll notice there are a few of us with way more than four characters, and we're not in the business of being hypocrites, or limiting muses. If you have four characters, manage to keep all of them active and would like to take up another character that just won't leave you alone, then talk to the mods about an exception. We're friendly people, really, so don't be scared to give us a ping for anything you need!

Holds! Character holds can be requested on the taken characters post and will be held for four days. Extensions are for three days (that means you get up to ONE WHOLE WEEK if need be). If the character you'd like is already being held for somebody else tell me that you'd like to try out, too, and we'll wait until we receive your application.

U-G-L-Y! You won't be told who to use and who not to use for your played-by, but please use discretion. We aren't big on banned lists, and if the face fits, use it. Many of us will be overly excited if you pick a PB that we don't see on every game, but we are willing to give any face a chance as long as they fit your character (this includes using select pictures, yes).

On a side note, if you're in need of a quick PB idea or icons, you can ask the mods, or look around at a few icon journals. The mods are responsible for haggardassicons, a haven for those pbs that most people won't think of. We're always willing to help out someone in need!

Age! We hate limits here at Nacht, so we're not going to have an age limit. All we ask is that appliers keep in mind that several of our players here are 18+, and it is a mature writing environment. We're not saying we're never immature, or ever all that mature, but we would like the actual writing to be on par with the other members, no matter how old you are. That's all!

Applying! To apply you have to make your character's journal (please no surplus of _ and x) and comment with a link to your completed application on the application post using it.

Keep in mind! Hexennacht is not meant to be fair to those of you applying as a muggleborn character; please remember that when creating a character who is less than pure. We, of course, want as many as we can get, but the premise of the game is that the muggleborns aren't as good as the rest of the magical world - at least according to the government and old society at this time.
