The Rules are the general rules and guidelines of this forum, and pertain to everything a member does here. Please read them if you intend to join.
The Requirements are rules of posting IC, and must be followed only when roleplaying. Please read them if you intend to create a character and use them.
The Workings are an explanation of how this roleplay is set-up and what you will be doing if you want to roleplay, like a sort of basic guidebook to this forum. You don't have to read them, but I'd advise it.

The Rules
1. Be nice to each other: no pulling hair or pointing fingers or harassment of any kind. You'll be spanked and possibly banned, and nobody wants that. Don't do it.
2. Keep things PG13: Please, no sexual content when posting. If you want to do something like that, swap contacts and do over a instant messaging program like skype. Don't do it here.
3. Please, no one 20+. It's hard for teenagers to find ab/tb/dl sites that allow them to join and we've had enough accusations of pedophilia.
4. Please make your speech OOC understandable, sweetie. I understand if you slip into your little space and tawk wike dis but we have to be able to understand you to some degree. Don't cry, just try your best!
5. When someone asks you to stop doing something to them (condescendingly talking or threatening to change diaper/bottle feed etc.) stop doing it. Most will enjoy it, laugh and feel loved, but it might be a trigger for some OOC and make them uncomfortable and upset.
6. If you have questions of any kind or have a problem with someone, please, please PM me about it and I'll answer/do what I can do my best. Be patient, because I only come on my admin account once a day.
7. That being said, all staff accounts are different from their character accounts, so be patient with them too. If we see something or there's a problem, one of us will log into our powered account and try to fix it when we can.
8. Have fun and be friendly, kiddo!
The Requirements
1. Check out everything in the premise board (except for the plotters) before making a character. Make sure you're not creating a character
with things that have already been claimed.
2. Make a character before posting. It'd be pretty hard to start, since you wouldn't get the normal introduction (read the workings to understand) for a baby or an angel.
3. After making a character, create a plotter thread and wait for your PM from me that will ask you what you want your nursery board name to be
4. Be literate when posting IC:
There's a 3 sentence minimum requirement for IC posts, and you must use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Do the best you know how!
Keep in third person POV: Dave walked into the store and said, "Hello, Mr. Clarkson."
Your character's dialogue can be in lisp, but make sure the narration isn't: Dave walked into the store and said, "Hewwo, mister Cwarksin!"
5. No god-modding (an angel can take and feed and change a baby, but if pm'd asking to stop, they must) or sues
6. Be nice to people who make mistakes. If someone's being rude to you, PM me and I'll ask them about it.
7. One account per character, please. Staff and member accounts are different, and are non-character or NPC controllers. (Meaning that if there's angels that aren't played by a member they're controlled by a staff member who plays normally as a separate character.)
8. For every baby character you create, if you intend to create another baby character create an angel character first and message a staff member. You may be denied another baby character if the staff member thinks you don't play a good caretaker, so don't cry about it and make your first one good!
9. Always, always, always tell someone if they're making you uncomfortable and if someone tells you you're making them uncomfortable, stop what you're doing and take it back a step.
Workings
1. The first thing you want to do is read these rules. Check.
2. Afterwards, post in the introduction forum so we can better get to know you--you're not required to do this, but it's advised!
3. Check the accepted character list and the plot before you make a character.
4. Head over to the "birthday cake" board and read the character sheet information, then copy the code and create a new thread
5. Fill out the character sheet to the best of your ability, and follow the rules!
6. Wait for a staff member to accept your character, and change information if they ask. Once you're accepted, your character will be moved to the accepted character board.
7. Wait for your PM that contains information on what to do next: this will include your starter angel or charge, directions to create a plotter if you haven't already, and will ask what you want your nursery board to be called (you'll be getting an entire board for that.)
8. Change your profile information to correspond to your character. Make the larger avatar your image of them in their application (it has to be a link), and your regular one can be whatever you want.
9. If you want to create a new character, log out of your account and make a new one, as this is one account per character. Follow all the same steps but log into your main account to add your new character to your plotter. Make sure your alias (author) is the same on all your accounts!
