Welcome to The Serpent's Cove.



Table of Contents:
1. Welcome Post
2. Rules
3. Guide to the Guild

EDIT: It has come to my attention that I label this a 'Welcome Post' but have previously failed to do any welcoming. I apologize.

Welcome to the Serpent's Cove! Do enjoy yourselves, please be active, and try not to make an a** of yourself. Introductions can be made in the thread for that purpose, it should be easy to find.

These are the rules. My rules. Obey them, or you will be kicked out.

1. I am your Captain, and as such, my word is law. You can, if you wish, disagree with me, but if I were you, I would not let the fact become known. If I am displeased, I will make it known, have no fear.

2. My Vice Captain and my Crew were appointed by me. As such, they have more superiority than ordinary members. Don't piss them off, or they have full permission to edit your posts in order to make you sound like an idiot, or a Hufflepuff (but is there really a difference?).

In addition, Diana_Faye, as Vice Captain, has my full trust. If she bans you, it was most likely something that we had discussed, and she had full right to do it. Don't complain.

3. Do not overuse emoticons. You will have only one warning, in the form of an edited post, then one warning in the form of a PM from myself or one of the crew. Then, you will be banned until you've formally apologized to each member of the crew, including myself.

4. Try not to stretch the page. I recognize that people have different screen resolutions, and so it can be hard to tell if a picture will be too big for someone else's compter. However, do try to watch picture size, and don't post streams of nonsense.

Also, try to avoid quoting an entire post, if quoting only a section will serve your purposes just as well.

5. For Salazar's sake, DO NOT use chat speak. Capitalize. Use punctuation. Spell out the whole word. Do not use short forms like 'u' or 'lyk'. You may use 'lol', and other such shorthand, if you feel it absolutely necessary, but not too often, please. Out of all of the rules, chat speak will be the one I will become the most angry about. For your own safty, just don't use it.

6. I really shouldn't have to mention this, but please make the utmost attempts to follow Gaia's TOS, and other such tedious necessities.

Welcome to the guild! Upon joining, you should read the rules. Memorize them, because if you break a rule, I might just have to kill you.

After doing so, you may be tempted to post. Listen to that temptation, we love people who are active. The first place to post, logically, is the Introduction Thread. Yay for introductions! Tell us all about yourself, and we promise to pretend to care!

After that, you are a full-fledged member of the Serpent's Cove, and will likely post all sorts of places. I have provided for you a rundown of what belongs where.

Main Forum: Vaguely Harry Potter related discussion is preferred, but if you want to talk about current events, or other fandoms, or the cute thing that your cat did this morning, do it here.

Roleplaying: This is quite complicated now, pay attention. What belongs here... is roleplays. Yes, I know. Try to contain your excitement. Feel free to join an existing roleplay, or start another one.

Fanfiction/Fanart/Other Creativities: Stories, artwork, icons, whatever. Just post it, so we can all enjoy it.
