- It is highly recommended that you read the Rules
and Regulations before joining. They contain very important information.
- It will take anywhere between 1 and 5 days for you to get a
reply from your submitted form. Please be patient! You will be asked to
write a longer biography, as well as be given more information on our website
and its policies. Once you submit your new biography, it'll take another few
days (again, between 1 and 5) for you to be fully accepted. Do not post until
you have been fully accepted, and please do not inquire about your Join Form's
status unless it has been more than five days since you submitted it.
- Our site is based closely on the Wheel of Time series by Robert
Jordan, published by Tor Books. You must have read at least one of these
books to join, and you may not be allowed into certain sections (or to have
certain characters) if you have not read far enough.
- Though our writing is heavily based on the Wheel of Time,
there are a few essential changes that have been made for ease of RPing. The
White Tower has not split, and the Amyrlin Seat is currently Evelyn Sedai,
previously Hesper Sedai, then Ariana Sedai, then Ava Sedai. The Black Tower was founded by Cahal sur Paendrag, and
Mazrim Taim never existed except as one of the False Dragons. Men are welcome in
the White Tower, and women are being accepted into the Black Tower. (Both
genders are welcome in the Training Grounds and Pattern Societies.) No other
large changes are allowed to be made without specific permission from more than
one Officer.
- Your character must be original - do not copy, plagiarize, or
steal ideas from anyone else, published, unpublished, and most definitely not on
this site. Names from the Wheel of Time are not allowed to be reused. If your
character is found to be unoriginal upon joining, you will be asked to revise.
If it is found that your character is unoriginal during any other part of your
membership here, it will be deleted and you will begin from the bottom once
again.
- Your character's name must follow the pattern for other names
from its region. There is more information on the Join Form itself.
- It will be at least three weeks until you are allowed a second
character.
- Please remember that everyone who administrates this website
is human. There are no automatic updates or email replies - everything you see
changed, updated, or sent to you was composed by a real human being. We are all
volunteers, taking time out of our lives to give you a fun RPing experience, as
well as paying out of our own pockets to keep things free for you. We expect you
to respect this. This means that updates to the website will take a day or two,
replies to emails or posts can take up to five days, depending on how busy we
are. Do not pester us to get things done - we'll tell you to wait (the
nagging won't do a thing), and if you do not listen, then we will become
angry. Very angry. (Many people have found this out the hard way - don't be one
of them. *grin*) Patience is the key to success (and sucking up never went awry,
either! *winks*).
- You should note that your email address and AIM SN will be posted on the
website (note the member pages), but we have never had members complain of spam
being sent to them because of this. You will need to check your email regularly, as updates and correspondence is done mainly through email (when
not on the boards).
- Please note that if you are under the age of 13, you are not
allowed to join unless you have the permission of your legal guardian.
