Hello everyone. This is a little guide of ‘helpful pointers’ that staff decided to help create to help people with their applications. The things listed are little facts that are needed for a quicker acceptance for when we find something that needs fixing, it takes more time to fully accept your character. Follow these little pointers and your character can be accepted much quicker! (:• In the APPLICATION there are word requirements. Please remember to abide by them. Put real age and appearance age as well as the minimums for everything else.
• Use correct punctuation. The site uses correct capitalization and punctuation so your application should too - at least in the major three sections: appearance, personality, and history.
• Remember to put your characters history in order. Going back and forth may confuse people, so keep it in a timeline manner.
• Remember to check out the SPECIES thread for what certain species can and cannot do.
• Quite a lot of jobs require education. Don’t forget to add that your character went through school and got a degree!
• If your character is old (500+) we would like some significant events listed in the history. They’re old so they should have some more events through their lifetime. We do have some exceptions, but just try.
• Along with the pointer above, if your character is non-aging or old, we heavily advise to mention ‘false documentations’ in your history.
• Don’t forget to check the FACE CLAIM and make sure the face you’re using isn’t already claimed or reserved.
• Children that run away are usually found in some fashion. If your character has a run-away past, please make sure that they’re under someone’s wing and off the government radar.
• The site takes place in Essex, New Jersey, not just ‘America’ in general - that can mean anywhere. Please mention either Essex or New Jersey in your character’s History.
• If you have any questions or unsure on something, feel free to PM one of the staff members or ask in the CBox if the FAQ’S do not help you.
With the above mentioned, staff will accept your characters quicker if everything is peachy-keen jelly-bean! We hope that these little pointers helped you with creating your character perfectly. (:
