the rulesThere will be consequences of not following these rules. So please don't be the one person who decides these don't apply to them. They're fairly simple really.
001. unapproved characters are for testing only
The purpose of the ic cbox is NOT to get around bans by playing a cat only in the box. DO NOT use certain cats in the box and never create a bio. If we catch you doing this, you will be banned for twenty-four hours from the ic box AND the regular cbox. Instead, play the cat once or twice to get a feel for them, and then create a bio. Don't return the character unless you get stuck on the personality or their bio is accepted.
002. keep interactions light
The ic cbox is not meant for playing out entire relationships and major events. It's meant to test characters together and against one another, to see how they react to each other, and to test out new characters. All romantic relationships MUST begin in a thread, and queens cannot announce or progress a pregnancy, or give birth in the ic cbox. INTER-CLAN (Clan vs Clan) CONFLICTS CANNOT TAKE PLACE IN ICC EVER. If you would like to have an interClan conflict between characters, seek staff approval and begin a thread. Major events in ANY type of relationship must take place in threads.
Characters and relationships that only exist in the ic cbox are ineligible for OTM awards. Any votes placed for them will be discounted.
003. no graphic acts or scenes
As with the rest of the site, you are not allowed to roleplay out your characters having sex. Do not describe gore or illness in great detail.
004. no spamming
Spam is considered to be a nonsense message. Please don't post ridiculous nothing on the box. If you don't have something of enough substance for any actual words, please refrain from posting at all.
005. no advertising
We have plug boards for that, and we'd appreciate it if you'd use them. Any persons found advertising for another site on any SS cbox will find their IP address banned from use of the box. This applies to members as well, though their ban will be temporary.
