| [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width: 390px; border: 10px solid #1d1715; background-color: #e5e5e5] NEW MEMBER HANDBOOK ! Are you new at No Rest For the Wicked? Are you not the best at getting rolling on a new forum? Never fear, Char is here. In this thread, you will get a step-by-step guide to success at No Rest For the Wicked. As long as you follow this accordingly and make the effort, you’ll be popular in no time. Of course, you have to be willing to do the steps. BEFORE REGISTERING ! » In order to know how we work around here, reading the SITE GUIDELINES and THE PLOT will prove to be helpful. In fact, it is mandatory you read both so you correctly roleplay on our site. » Take a minute to figure out your questions. We’d rather you ask questions in the beginning than guess and screw it up or something. Don’t worry, we don’t bite. You’re more than welcome to ask questions via Private Message or Cbox. Please make sure you check out the FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS before you do so. » Original characters are great, but there’s always the possibility someone might need a character filled. Head over to THE WANTED ADS to see if any of them meet your fancy. Taking requested characters is a great way to dive headfirst into our site. Look, you haven’t even registered yet and you’re already in a dramatic, scandal-worthy plot! Way to go! APPLYING ! » First things first, make sure your selected celebrity or model isn’t taken in the FACE CLAIM. We don’t want you to put a lot of effort into your application if you’re only going to end up having to change it a tad because you didn’t know your face claim was taken. If you really love the face, be sure to RESERVE it while you make your application. » Not sure which power to use? No problem! Check out the ABILITY LIST to get some ideas. Remember, you’re not limited to what is on the list. As long as you first clear it with an administrator, you’re more than welcome to use an ability that isn’t on our limited list. » Now, it’s time to APPLY FOR YOUR CHARACTER by using the correct application format. Once you’re finished, you should post the application in the PENDING APPLICATIONS board so we know it’s ready to be looked at. Please be patient as you wait to be accepted. We take our time to thoroughly go through your application, so we will get to it as soon as possible. ACCEPTANCE ! » Be sure to claim your celebrity or model in the FACE CLAIM. » It’s important we know who is who. Post in the MEMBER ROSTER » The CONTACT CLAIM is equally important. Be sure to hit it up before you begin to roleplay. » Having graphics on your profile gives a professional look to the forum. It also gives a visual as to what your character looks like. Try to find a nice avatar and signature set to spice up your character’s profile a bit. Don’t hesitate to check out the GRAPHIC KINGDOM and request some if you’re incapable of making them yourself. DIVING IN ! » INTRODUCE YOURSELF by posting an ‘about you’ kind of thread in the chatting forum. This way, we’ll be able to get to know you as a roleplayer. Hey, if we like you, we just might want to roleplay with you, yeah? » Create a SHIPPING PAGE so we can plot with you. Be sure to explore other members’ pages, too. That way, you’re making an effort to actively plot, too. Ultimately, it’s the plotting level that defines you at No Rest For the Wicked. Plot it up! » Check out the OPEN THREADS LIST to get posting. Open threads are amazing for character development. Plus, you might meet someone new. That’s always fun, right? |
