Hey, Connect Four was happening. It gets my blood up.

rules and regulations

Disclaimer

-

I wish to the high heavens that I was Dianna Agron, she is simply gorgeous and an absolutely amazing creature, but no, I'm not her. I am not even Bridget O'Byrne. She was created by the lovely owners of Whispering Walls, Sabella Rose O'Brion and Carolina Jess Evenson. They get the full credit for this drunk Hufflepuff and I wouldn't dare taking it from them. Do not message me, or comment me and ask if I am either or them, because all you'll receive is a fat sack of sarcasm and an even bigger virtual black eye; I really don't like repeating myself. Despite the fact that WW no longer exists, the creation of Bridget herself is credited to them. I have allowed her to breathe new life in several different ways, and I also was given permission by her original creator to do so.

Writing Style

-

I am a multi-para to novella style RPer. That being said, the least that I will accept is two paragraphs. I'm not going to tell you how many sentences that is, because everyone ought to know how much that is and I will feel like an utter twat if I have to sit here and count them, just to let you know that your reply really wasn't long enough for my standards, okay? Good. As for the most that I will accept...we-ell, I don't think that I can really put a length on that, because I've sent some bloody long replies/starters in my time, and I'll return what I receive. After all, fair is fair.

Grammar & Spelling

-

I won't pretend to know absolutely every word in the dictionary, but it would be lovely if you all would send me a comment that is grammatically correct; as well as the spelling. I won't shoot you down in flames if you spell something wrong every now and then; even I do it from time to time, but please check first. As long as I can read and understand what it is that you're attempting to tell me, that is all that I really ask aside from you trying. I can be anal about it if I get into a mood about something that happened either in RL, or hell, if someone accused me of something that I didn't do, so the best thing that you can do is double check your spelling before sending me something. Now, OOC talk is different, because if you're in a bit of a lazy mood, and can't be bothered, the only thing that I ask, is that I can read what it is that you're saying to me. Also, please be sure that you can actually spell 'Bridget O'Byrne' because no one likes receiving a comment where the name of your character is spelt incorrectly. Nicknames are fine, but if we haven't started to RP yet, and you call me something else, then I'm going to do something that I dislike doing, and ignoring your comment completely. If you didn't take the time to really read the comment, that I sent you then I'm not going to want to reply to you.

Replies & Starters

-

Guess who can be the laziest cat when it comes to sending replies and starters? *thrusts hand up in the air* That doesn't mean that I won't get to them at all, because I always get to my replies unless you disappear, or quit the RPG, so the only thing that I ask from you is a little patience. I have some semblance of a life, and there are times when I just cannot force myself to reply because I know that my replies are going to be crappy thanks to a little thing called writer's block. It is the bane of my existence, and if I'm having a really bad time thinking about a reply, then there is no saying how long you may have to wait. I can't give you an exact time frame, because I really don't know myself, but rest assured that I will get to them. I am a human not a computer so don't hound me for replies unless your name is Adam Joseph Thackeray. Aside from Adam, I tend to reply to my lovely Celeste rather quickly too, and then comes whomever I feel like, usually those that I have amazing storylines with. Aside from my major connections, if we're RPing, and you are not a member of Whispering Walls RPG, I feel obliged to inform you right here, and right now that WW members come before anyone else, so you may have to wait longer. It's just the way that things work, because the RPG members are my top priority.
As for starters, I'm sick to death of sending starters, and then getting nothing in return because said person a). Quit the RPG b). Cannot be bothered replying to me or c). Disliked my reply enough to delete it and then me in the process. If you're going to ignore my starter, then I simply am going to stop offering to send them. I've sent them to so many people lately, and if just a few more of them go to waste, then I am going to scream, and then refuse to send them to another person but I really do not want to do that, so just make sure that if you're going to insist that I send the starter, that you actually respond to it.

God-Moding

-

This is also known as so many other different things, powerplay, meta-gaming etc, but the point is that I control my own character and you control your own. Understood? I won't blow up at you if you're talking for someone else in our RP, I do it all the time, but I cross the line at you talking for me and vice versa. I won't do it to you, so don't do it to me. It's really simple.
Now, if you have to tug her along into some corridor, or classroom to get her alone in the starter, by all means do so, but make sure that you let me know what it is that you're doing with a little foot note once the reply is sent. It's common courtesy, and if I do something like that to you for whatever reason, I ALWAYS apologise first.
I'm not completely against anyone cursing Bridget, but just know that if it's the Cruciatus Curse, I'm going to pretend that it simply didn't happen. Same goes with the Imperius Curse, because you cannot make her do something that she doesn't want to do to. Do not attempt to kill off Bridget unless we have discussed a dark, and somewhat twisted storyline, where you attempt it, but it doesn't happen because she isn't going to die. Well, maybe she might one day, and most likely from alcohol poisoning, but that doesn't happen whilst she is still a Hogwarts student. Understood? Good. Rape is also another no-no. It's not going to happen, because I will delete you, or if you're an RPG member, I will let Carolina and Sabella know, because it's not something that anyone should have to deal with.

Canon

-

I am canon as canon can be. What I mean, is that I am sticking to Bee 100% and nothing that you can say will change that. You won't find her standing on a coffee cart in the middle of the Great Hall and declaring her love for Adam, nor will you find her linking arms with Sarah Winters and running down the halls, giggling over the latest magical fashion magazine or hugging because Adam turned her down flat. Or, in a somewhat extreme case, you won't even find her sitting straight on her broom, and catching the snitch and then parading it around with a big, goofy smile on her face because she finally caught the snitch whilst being incredibly sober; that just isn't going to happen. Perhaps in your dreams it might happen, but it's not something that you'll see. Yes, she becomes incredibly depressed in her sixth year after the break up, and yes, she does things that would shock the rest of the school who knew her simply as the beautiful but completely drunk Hufflepuff Seeker who just isn't the one that boys chase because once the sun goes down, she's just a mess. If you have some problem with the way that I am playing her, take it up with me in a message, but I'm not going to change who she is just because you don't think that it suits her.

Stealing

-

s not only a mmajor offense, but something that I will not take lightly. Everything that you see on my page has been made by Prima from High Times so if I find something on your page, and I didn't give you the permission to take it, or even to have it, then you will most certainly be hearing from me... and then her, because I will be letting her know. I'm not about to spread your name all over the bulletins, nor will I make people block you unless I am unfortunately unable to get you to take it down, in which case I will be forced to tell all those that I know that own RPG's, whoring sites, etc and then THEY will be the ones that blacklist you. I really, really do not want to have to do that sort of thing, because I don't like to use my connections in such a way, so the easiest thing that you can do is NOT steal anything from my page. Got it? Good.
Now, there are tons and tons; literally thousands of people that use Dianna Agron as their playby right now, and I have quite a few pictures in my album and even more on my computer, the one thing that I ask that you don't do is steal the photos that either I have edited, have come from premade sites or those that other people have edited for me. If you would like one of the photos that I have, I'll give you the original and you can do with it whatever you wish, but just know that if you take them without my knowledge, I will come down on you so fast that you wish you'd never done it. Yes, I realise that this clashes with the first part of this rule, but the point of it is that you shouldn't do it particularly with those photos that were made for me by other people; it's rude, and it's wrong. If you want one, go find a premade site, or edit one yourself, but you're definitely getting the ones that were made for me. I refuse to add other Di Agron playbys for this very reason.

Maturity

-

By this, I don't simply mean that you have to be of age, because let's face it, do you really become more mature the night of your eighteenth birthday? I felt exactly the same as I have done the past few years, so what I mean by maturity is something that you should all already know, and I really don't want to bore anyone else by going into it.
Now, on this page there WILL be drinking, sex, swearing, perhaps smoking and a few other things, so just be aware that I do mature content, and that is something that will never change. If you have some major issues with it, let me know, but please don't expect too much because Bridget is an alcoholic, and I can't change that even if I wanted to - which I do not wish to do. If you are totally against it, just let me know and we won't RP, but then I will be somewhat saddened by that fact, because I like to at least attempt to RP with every single member of this amazing RPG.
In keeping with the remark about sex being on this page, I'm taking this opportunity to remind each and every single one of you that Bridget's relationship with Adam is a secret. If someone were to find out about them, they wouldn't surely be punished most severely, and that is the last thing that they need. So, don't come up to me in the middle of class, and tell me that you know all about the two of them, and are going to expose their relationship, because I might just laugh in your face. Got it? Fantasic.

Drama

-

Let me put it to you very simply right now: IC drama is very much welcomed because I believe that it helps to keep the storyline running along smoothly, and all that sort of jazz. I don't mean like tons of drama, although I don't actually think that I would be opposed to that just as long as it makes sense to me, as well as our characters.Now, as for OOC drama...don't bring it to my page. It's that simple, okay? I have enough going on in RL without the added drama of others. Now, I'm good if you want to vent and stuff like that, I love to help people out, but if you're going to drag me into your drama, and make me mediate a conversation with yourself and the person you're having issues with in RL in MSN or Facebook, then I am going to drawn the line. It's just not something that I do, so quite simply, keep it away from me. I'll keep my dramas to myself, and you'll do the same, and we'll be as happy as Larry.
Also, if for some strange problem you have an issue with me for whatever reason, please take it up with me personally. By this, I mean a simple message, where you tell me what it is that I do, and that you don't like that I'm doing, and I'll do what I can to see where you're coming from, but you have to meet me half-way. I don't like to read about myself on the RPG Formspring, because you have an issue with me or something like that. Just come to me personally, because I do not want to be one of those girls that starts/gets involved in drama; that's one of the things that I have always stayed away from, and I don't plan to stop doing that right now or ever.

I Am Not A Number

-

I'm a human. Not a machine; not a number and certainly NOT an item of you to collect. That's just wrong, okay, and by wrong, I mean that it is wrong in more ways than one. I collect paperclips, especially if they're striped or purple and what not, and I count them, but if you try and collect me, I will delete you. I want to RP with people, so to put it simply, if you have something like 300 plus friends, and you're not an RPG, then I am going to deny you. I refuse to just sit there, when you have so many other people that you ought to be RPing with. If you add me, I will expect to see a message in my inbox, or a comment to inform me that you would like to discuss a storyline. I don't add people that aren't RPG members by myself, but if I accept you, then that message better be there. Treat me like a number, and you will be blocked and deleted so fast you won't know what hit you.

OOC

-

Surprise! I actually do tend to talk OOC at times, especially if you've been around for quite some time, and we get along like a house on fire, but that doesn't mean that I am going to stop replying or signing into my account(s) because I don't do that, I don't RP just to make friends in other countries and all that sort of jazz; I RP because I love it. Now, there are those that I feel incredibly comfortable speaking with OOC, and they know who they are, because the feeling is rather mutual, but just keep in mind that if you want to talk OOC with me, we HAVE to be RPing the first place. You don't have one without the other, and the RPing comes first for me.
Now, we're going to talk about a topic that I almost forgot to mention, and then realised that I really needed to because it'll hopefully stop the stalking. I DO RP sex, and I do do it in comments because I tend to forget about messages if I have any RP's going on in them. However, I will remain loyal to that person, and that person is none other than Adam Joseph Thackeray. So, unless you're Adam, and there is only one Adam, then we will not be shagging. Understood? Good.

Other Accounts

-

Now, when I say RL, I mean that I have things that I have to get to away from my life here, so if I'm not on for a brief period of time, Carolina and Sabella will already have been notified, but I will return. If I'm having an excruciating bad day, then the chances of me coming on are slim to none, because I don't want to drag anyone into my sh*te. My family come first, for reasons that a few people know of, and unless I let you into my RL, then you probably won't get that either. If something has happened, I won't be here and even if I am here, I won't be in much of a talking mood, so it's best that I stay away if those sort of things are happening OOC. I can't control them, but if you're going to bitch me out about it, don't say that I didn't warn you in the first place.
Yes, I do have other accounts, so I will not be here twenty-four hours, seven days a week. I tend to sign in pretty much every day, but my timing is always wack because I live in Australia, and although I don't get to my replies every single day, there are more than one reason for that as you will know if you actually read every single one of these rules carefully. Now, when I say other accounts, I also mean an RPG that I own with a close friend of mine, and another that is just starting up now that I'm helping to run; I guess it's lucky that I have the time right now. I don't feel like plugging them in the middle of my rules, so if you want to know what they are, look out for bulletins, because I will whore them out. Or, if you are one of those lazy ones that don't even read the bulletins but you're curious as to know what they are, message me, and I will be glad to tell you what they are. However, the other accounts, aside from Elle Flint, are not part of this RPG and therefore, unless you really want to RPG with me elsewhere, you won't find out who they are. Some people already know, and others don't, but Elle and Bee are the only second generation Harry Potter verse accounts that I have.

Proof

-

Yupp, I am looking for proof that you have actually read and understood these rules to the fullest capacity, so I want you to tell me three things:
What the item is that I collect.
What television show the coffee cart reference in the canon rule comes from. (I'll give you a hint, there is a member in this RPG that has the playby of the girl it happened to and the name of this blog is a quote from the same show.)
Your favourite quote of all time.:
Once all that is done, do not put read and understood in the comment, because I will delete it, and tell you to re-sign them. Also, signing these after reading them is definitely something that needs to happen. Don't just read them and walk away, actually SIGN them.More will be added if I deem it necessary.
