hello you wonderful members that have joined since our last announcement here on SOMETHING HUMANS CRAVE. we have a few simple things to mention here to help make the process run a little more smoothly.
I. we have added another member group to the site, in order to improve the life span of your account. this works for already accepted applications. we have noticed the severe lack of appearance on the site, after some of you have made characters and abandoned the site. if you have not signed onto your accounts within two weeks, your accounts will be moved to the inactive categories where it will sit for a month's time before officially being deleted and your application will be moved to archives.
II. by some miracle you've came back within enough time to sign into your accounts to notice that your character/account has managed to get itself into the inactives category, the first thing you should do is reply to the thread or start a new one. have you done that? good, because the next thing for you to do is to send a personal message (pm) to both marie and toxxic in this format.
[b]alias/name:[/b] your name
[b]thread:[/b] [a href="http://"]thread name here[/a]
[b]member group:[/b] answer here
III. we've noticed that some folks created accounts and posted the skin of the application, then to only vanish without a trace. we're not going to allow an unfinished application sitting there collecting dust, while someone could very well be wanting to use that playby, but follows the common curtsy rule. you have a week length of time, before it's deleted or archived and the proper account will be deleted. no exceptions.
IV. a board clean up will happen in a month interval for inactive threads, if they're finished please post in the movers thread.
V. if you have an issue with someone, message them to an admin and not another member. marie and toxxic should be the only ones receiving any messages whatsoever when it comes to member-to-member drama. this is a rule we have, but it apparently needs to be reiterated since we did recently have an issue with this.
- we shouldn't have to say this too, but please be polite and courteous to the staff as well as the members. we do have things beyond the site that take up our time, often without notice, and that can effect us for an indefinite amount in time. the site is like our baby and we adore it, but reality takes priority. in short, cut us some slack when we drop the ball. life happens.
VI. WE HAVE A COUPLE BANS FOR CHARACTERS. male to female ratios are close enough to leave alone, but we do currently have a ban on tattoo shop owners and strippers/exotic dancers. we also have a ban on characters that are sexually abused. we will lift these bans after we feel enough variety has been added to the site.
the rules have been updated to accommodate these changes!
- marie & toxxic
