APPLICATIONS: 2011; 001

[tripled_mods]

→ Important Rules

1. You must be at least 15 to play.
   
2. No original characters or real people.
   
3. You may submit two applications each calendar month, and that's it. Deleting applications to get around this rule will lead to an applications suspension and automatic rejection.
   
4. We have a character limit of 9 and a fandom limit of 3 (that is, three characters from a single fandom per person.)
   
5. Please realize the difference between catchphrases and copying material from a book or script. The former is a saying your character often uses, which is perfectly acceptable, while the latter is copying lines directly from a book or script, which is grounds for automatic rejection.
   
6. Lyrics will not count to your word count.
   
7. Should we request another sample, you have a week from that request date to supply one before the application is automatically rejected.
   
8. We do reference IP addresses on this post and this is to avoid people getting around our application rule or those few banned players we have getting back in. We don't mind if you use a sock puppet account in general but if there will be complications, please contact us. Additionally, no one can see your IP address but moderators.
   
9. If you are re-apping a previously dropped character, feel free to link your old entries for a first person sample. However, if it is your first time applying, please write a new sample for your application, rather than linking to an entry in another game.

→ Check before applying

1. The taken characters list
   
2. The Reserve Page, to see if someone has reserved the character or if you, yourself would like to. See the page for more information about reservations.

→ Etiquette

1. Please don't be presumptuous. Mods reserve the right to reject the application of anyone announcing their acceptance prematurely.
   
2. Do not bother the moderators about your application. Asking for a verdict in PM or otherwise will result in an auto-reject.
   
3. If you feel you've been overlooked, post a comment with a link to your application and we'll make it our priority. Being overlooked and reposting your application will not count to your two a month limit.

→ Contact

1. If you have any general questions about applications or how the application process works, feel free to contact any of the moderators/modpoles.

( Prompts )

We strongly discourage conversations on applications. A comment here or here is fine, but please reserve all 'celebrating' for intro posts.

We check applications every few days.
They are always open.

If you write an intro post for your sample, it's going to be very hard to judge you, and we're probably going to ask for another one.
