UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO
People always complain about living in Toronto. but something makes them stay. family, friends, education, or maybe something completely different. maybe the city keeps them around, until the spell's bond is broken. no doubt Toronto has potential to be a great city, but at this rate, the drugs and crime are dragging it down wards, into poverty. can you survive in this town? many do and can, but you may be the odd one out.

    applying.



  • Please note you must have account to claim a celeb, reserve one, or even post an application. I will ignore any posts by guests. You have been warned : )
  • I don’t like a lot of spelling errors if they can be avoided. It’s what spell check is for. If it doesn’t work for you, then try using Microsoft Word, if you have that tool available. If not, I’m sure there are sites out there that can auto correct your spelling. A few letters off, I’m not throwing a hissy fit. But an extreme mistake, and there’s multiple. I will strangle a cat.
  • Please. Since the limit for the minimum for words in a post is 650 words, try and keep your sample over this. I do check sometimes, so don’t be shocked if I ask you to keep it up. I understand odd days, off days. We all have them. But if I see a trend, you might get a kind PM about it. Trends aren’t always good. I want this site to be some what literate.
  • The password you should be using is black cats and voodoo dolls. Thank you Ricky Martin.
  • If any admin or staff asks you to fix something about your application, god damn. You better fix it, and don’t go “OMG, I DON’T KNOW WHAT I DID WRONG. IT’S PERFECTLY FIIIINE –whine whine whine-“. Or heads will roll..
  • Last time I checked, plagiarism is illegal. Don’t steal anyone’s application, or character. If I see this happening, I will intervene, and since no one likes to be the victim of this, PM me with concerns.
  • All names for your account must be lower case letters only otherwise a staff member would be more than happy to assist you. First and last name only as well. Now, if their first name is long then it's okay to shorten it but no middle names or middle initals, and none of that: elizabeth-anne nonsense. Just first name, last name. Ex: eli becks.



  • role playing .




  • you may post in the OOC board before you are accepted, but not in those games, like “hot or not” since technically, you don’t exist :’) also. Don’t post anywhere BUT OOC before you are accepted.
  • All posts should be at least 650 or more. Give or take a few. Remember AIM is an exception. Don’t worry your pretty little heads off over that. This site is literate. A staff member will PM you if you are constantly under this limit. If you can’t think of anything to write, then don’t try. The person you are replying to will understand completely.
  • Remember to have a proper sig, or series of icons, and an avatar. It’s easier on the members and staff to have a face to look at.
  • Now. This is a realistic RPG site. And what happens in real life? Just about everything! So that means you can concoct little plots. But if a thread contains sexual content, drug abuse, or extreme violence, rate it so, using an ‘x’ or ‘r’ in clear view don’t hide it. I’ve had Emily be scarred by a hidden r, and she’ll never be the same again.
  • Thread titles also must be in all lower case or upper case, no mix matching like: COME on BBy, ItS COlD. It makes the boards look horrid.
  • All posts MUST be in third person. Not first. If I see “I looked at the wall, my brain rocketing off into my own little world” I’ll ask you to fix it, then if you don’t, bye bye post. But it won’t delete it completely. I’ll save it under my own files, and then delete it, if you want it back, to change it, talk to me. I’m nice. I don’t bite too hard. If you don’t know what third person is, or the difference between it, and first person, go look it up. Also. No future tense. Like “Stephen walks up to Bob, and says ‘I’m your baby daddy!’”
  • Also. Don’t use power play, or super powers. If staff sees “Daisy pointed her gun at Jane, pulled the god complex, and the silver killer struck Jane dead center in the chest.” We’d label that as power play. It’s appropriate to put “Daisy pulled the gun complex, and heard the loud bang of the gun shooting.” You cant say if Jane got hit or not, unless you have Jane’s player’s permission
  • Pregnancy is one of life’s biggest miracles and biggest mistakes. If you don’t take proper precaution with your character’s sex life, and feel you want to gamble, PM an admin to find out the outcome. If you want a pregnancy to be for sure, PM an admin for the okay. We can’t have a bunch of Britbrit’s running about, preggers
  • All characters must be portrayed by someone, please keep it towards celebrities or models; don't use some odd person off the street. It’s for your own good. It’s basically because of icons I have this problem.
  • Don't bug people to reply. Once or twice to ask if they have, and drop it. Maybe they don’t have muse, or the will power. But if they take over a week, remind them again. Maybe they forgot. They don’t want you always in their face. That’s fucking irritating, guy .
  • Also, don’t ask the same person to RP over and over. And if they say no the first time, don’t ask for a while. And even worse, if they say no, don’t go and make the thread! Common sense, people. Please use it ?




  • chatterbox .




  • Don’t spam. Not cool
  • Don’t advertise purposely. You can have a link in your name, but don’t jump around, asking people to click on it and join.
  • No fighting. If you carry on in the cbox, and it’s annoying, you’ll be banned from the cbox, until further notice.
  • No chat speak. That stuff blows my mind. The lowest tolerance I have is using u instead of you. So don’t use random numbers, or all caps, or LiKe DiS pLz.
  • If you’re discussing something private, keep it to MSN or PM. Don’t make people feel left out. It’s bullying.
  • Guests are always welcome to talk, and comment on the site. But please. Don’t be having a grudge and only they’re to be rude and spam it up.
  • these are the most important rules. Ever.
    1) No Racial, Sexually Degrading, Religious comments allowed.
    2) No comments regarding suicide or inflicting self-harm
    3) Reference to drugs and alcohol to a minimum
    4) Keep discussion of family, financial, and social problems to a minimum, if they are too dark of a topic.
    Any of the rules broken will end in suspension or even having cbox use revoked. Keep this in mind.


  • misc .



    [blockquote]
  • You can jazz up your names, but please. Nothing too distracting. An odd symbol is fine, or a !?., but. No numbers, or ^&*#@ like that please.
  • Note that signatures cannot have any sexual content, or revealing pictures. It’s called porn. Some of us don’t like it. Some of us prefer moving pictures.
  • If you post more than one advertisement for you site within a couple of weeks time, I can guarantee all of them will be deleted.
  • If you’re leaving, don’t forget to tell us. If you leave, stark, no notice, I will be deleting accounts
  • If you plan on leaving, tell me. I don’t like clutter. But if you come back, I can’t promise all your things will be here.
  • Ignore my old chattering. The newest password you should be using is faappicino, capitals ;D.
