Rules and Regulations:
Desecration's Smile uses a "three strikes, you're out" system. The first two rule violations will get you warnings, but a third violation will get you banned. Use common sense and be courteous to your fellow RPers, and we can all keep the fun going.

- Discrimination of any sort (race, gender, sexual persuasion) while out of character will not be tolerated.
- In keeping with the laws of ProBoards, we can't RP smut, or the board will be deleted. Violence, profanity, and other mature themes, however, are perfectly fine.
- No God-Modding. That means controlling another person's character as though they were your own. It's one thing if you PM someone and they give permission for you to write their character doing something--that's acceptable. It's another thing entirely to blaze ahead and take away someone's agency with their character.
- No spamming. That's one-word responses, emoticon responses, or advertising outside of the advertising section.
- This is a mid-level, literate RP site, so we ask a two-paragraph minimum for your responses. We're not all about speed here; if you take a little longer to write a well-thought-out post, that's cool. Don't just give us a single line of dialogue; tell us what's going on inside the character's head.
- There is no limit if you want to create multiple characters. However, we ask that each character have a separate account. We understand that sometimes you will use one character more than others, but do try to have something going on with each character.
- When choosing a face claim for your character, use only real pictures, please. If you have a remarkable, realistic picture of your character AND your application is fantastic, then this rule can be flexible. Anime and manga images, however, are not allowed, no exceptions.
- When your character is accepted, please change your display name to the name of that character.
- Infected characters function as NPC's; if you wish to make one, you can create an account and do a quick application for it. These accounts can then be used when characters have a run-in with Infected.
- A general guideline: if you're okay with anyone and everyone coming into your threads, tag the subject with "open". If you only want specific people, tag their characters in the subject. If you want specific people but are okay with others coming in, tag it with the characters and "open".
- To show that you've actually read these rules, when asked in your application, "What do you think of this situation?" respond, "It could be worse".
- If you notice anyone breaking these rules, or have an issue with another member for any reason, please bring it to the mods' attention by PMing us.
