Magic Horizons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry – Rules
Below is a list of the rules set at Magic Horizons. Please take heed of them and stick to them at all times. Any deviations from the rules can result in removing points from your House, and repeated incidents could result in suspension or even expulsion from the school. If you have any queries about the rules, please contact one of the Headmistresses, who will be happy to answer any questions you might have.
1) The Stuff You Probably Don’t Read When You Register:
You agree, through your use of this forum, that you will not post any material which is false, abusive, inaccurate, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise in violation of ANY law. This is not only humorous, but legal actions can be taken against you. You also agree not to post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or you have consent from the owner of the copyrighted material. Spam, flooding, advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes, and solicitations are also inappropriate to this forum. Posts that do not comply to all above will be removed from the forum at the administrator’s discretion.
2) Advertising:
You are not allowed to advertise other websites or forums on these boards. If you wish to inform people of a website, you are allowed to use the Magic Horizons IM service and the space within your signature to do so, but please refrain from advertising on the actual boards.
3) Special Powers:
New students should begin their time at Magic Horizons as a clean slate – newcomers who claim to have many special abilities or powers that, in some way or other, make them seem of a higher class than other students, are not allowed. Being especially able at particular subject(s) is, of course, allowed – but really special gifts will only be granted in very special circumstances.
4) Killing of Characters:
The killing of any character that does not belong to you is not allowed, under any circumstances, unless that character has given you permission to kill them beforehand. This is an offence taken very seriously, and can grant you immediate suspension from the school. "Lethal" boards such as the Vampires Lair, etc, are dangerous, and it is only there that the residents of that board are allowed to kill without prior permission.
5) Deletion of Characters:
If you decide that you no longer wish to use one of your characters, or one of your characters has been killed, we request that you do not delete them as it creates the impression that every post that character made was created by a Guest instead of a registered member.
6) The Faerie Realm and Forbidden Forest:
These two boards are not as dangerous as the three "lethal" boards – however, they each belong to the creatures that they house, and it is disrespectful of students from the school to invade their homes. The Faeries do not mind visitors as long as they are respectful to the residents of the Realm, however the creatures who inhabit the Forbidden Forest are often riled by wandering students, and you are liked to be severely attacked if you enter. Repeated entry into the Forest can earn you a punishment – these boards do not belong to the students of the School, and should not be treated as if they are.
7) Special Characters:
Students wishing to be a Vampire must first ask permission from the King or Queen of the Lair, as it is their decision who is granted access to their ranks. Students wishing to be a Lycan must decide whether they are allied to the Forest Lycans or the Tunnel Lycans, although there is a status for those wishing to remain on neither side. Students please note that there are no Valkerie positions available, so please do not ask for one.

This list will be updated as new problems or situations arise.
Thankyou.
