Hello everyone, it's little old me. I am Rain, creator of this site and the leader of Ocean Ban.d You will become a penguin in a band of your choice: Ocean, Blizzard, Snow or Ice. You will use the characters to create stories, or RP. When you Role Play (RP), you are speaking for your characters and performing all of their actions. You will become apart of the story, and along with your fellow penguins, or other Band penguins. You'll make up a story line and execute the plan yourselves, when coming up with your story lines, please try to make them appropriate! Here are some generic rules about this site:
1.) No God-Playing
*God-Playing is when you have two people speaking in one post.
*It's also considered god-playing when you speak for someone before it's happened.
*This is illegal and karma points will be taken away if this happens!
*EXAMPLE: Rain waddled into the den and saw Puddle sitting there. "Puddle!" she exclaimed. "What are you doing here?" Puddle glanced at her and said, "I was just curious what your igloo looked like!"
*This is considered God-Playing because I was speaking for Puddle when he could've posted it himself.
2.) No Post-Reaping
*Post-Reaping is when you post on the general board or anywhere non-RP with just one sentence or sentences non-related to the topic.
*They're just random posts to boost your overall post count.
*If you're caught, karma WILL be taken away and the random posts will be removed from your post count.
*EXAMPLE:
-Rain's Post- I had so much fun in French class yesterday! But I wasn't really paying any attention. Could you help me? Slushy? Fleur?
-Fleur's Post- Sure Rain! I'd love to help you. We learned about the newest topic called Education. We watched a movie in French about it and then we were given a review packet. I think you got that though. Our test is on Wednesday.
-Rain's Post- Thanks Fleur! Was there anything else?
-Slushy's Post- I love hot dogs!
*Slushy's Post was totally irrevelent to the topic. Can you see what we're going at?
3.) No Swearing or Inappropriete Material
*No swearing means no swearing. OMG, crap, crud, oh snap, poo, poop don't count. I'm talking about the big ones like s**t, a*s, etc. Get the point?
*No approprieate material means nothing too mature for us. We're just teens and kids here.
*If you are caught, consiquences might be high. Being banned is common but it depends on the offense.
*NO EXCEPTIONS FOR ANYONE!!!!!!
4.) No Double-Posting
*Double Posting is posting twice in a row on a RP or basically anywhere.
*You must have someone post in between before posting again.
*You can modify all you want but please don't double post.
*EXAMPLE:
-Rain's Post- Rain crept up slowly to the Blizzard Band igloos. She wanted to surprise Frost with a gift.
-Rain's Post- Rain stomped her feet against the snow, waiting for Frost to appear.
*That was double-posting because I posted twice in a row without letting Frost or anyone post in between.
If you follow these simple rules, I'm sure we'll get along just fine. No excuses on the rules once again! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to PM me (by clicking on my name and clicking Send Personal Message). Also, if you have suggestions or improvements for the site, please let me know too. Make sure to tell all your friends to join Polar Island too so we can have a blast! Have fun on this site and enjoy Polar Island!
