Hello and welcome to
oh you pretty things
This site is based on the story of two opposing groups of mutants, neither good, neither bad but both strongly disagree with each others message
each group has a base in and around London and each is recruiting heavily for the upcoming inevitable war. Which group will throw the first punch? Which group will you join forces with? Only time will tell...
Here are the handy links to the stuff you will need to get going. Be sure to read all of the important stuff before registering because there are things you will need to know before you are approved!

Basic Rules
It is a condition of this board that all players must read the following rules before registering, creating a character, and afterward during the roleplay process. Any violation of the said rules will arise in warning from administration, continued breaking of the rules and in cases where serious offences occur will result in suspension of your account and/or deletion of that account and the blocking of your IP address from this board. Ignorance of the rules will not be an acceptable excuse for any infraction.
These rules have been compiled in order for our members to have fun without having to debate with other members or administration about their dissatisfaction. Follow them in order to receive and provide the roleplay experience of the highest quality.
..::Rating::..
This is an all ages board, but please read tags to threads as some adult content is allowed but must be indicated as follows:
[mature content]
this is to ensure that younger members are more than aware when there is content that might not be suitable for their age.
We will NOT tolerate ANY of the following: any reference to sexual situations involving minors, reference to child porn, forced sexual situations, unconsenting violence, discriminatory, derogatory, or hurtful content or posts. Be respectful of others.
Anything we perceive as inappropriate content will be removed, this includes posts, signatures, usernames, images, links, etc. No warning of removal need be given nor justifications made. The offending member will be warned and or banned at our discretion.
If you are unsure of something feel free to contact one of the staff about it.
..::character details::..
When making your character please try and stick to them having a reasonably realistic life and personal details. Even though this site is based on mutants which aren't very realisitic it doesn't mean your character can be over dramatic or unrealisitc. We are very anti mary sue here so please, read the guidlines in the 'useful info' section if you are unsure about how to prevent this.
Also, we deal with statistical realities aswell. Things such as twins for example, these are statistic rarities and as such we will not let everyone have a twin sibling or have a set of twins in their family. So please, try to limit this sort of thing in your character. Also, this site may be based in London but that doesn't mean everyone is going to be from there, the same can be said with America and France which are another popular destination for hometowns. Be creative, pick somewhere interesting for them to be from rather than the really common and over used places.
..::Politeness::..
Please help us to maintain a friendly atmosphere here at OYPT by being respectful and polite. If you have to have a debate with someone, please do not do it on the board. Take it to PM or to the IM of your choice.
The best option is to contacts admins so they can solve the issue.
..::Spamming::..
We will NOT tolerate spamming of any sort; on the board anywhere, or in PM. This is rude and will be dealt with harshly. Spamming includes mass PMs of web pages, huge amounts of smilies, repeating the same posts over and over, flooding a thread or any other variations of the form.
You get one and only ONE warning for this.
Spamming by guest, if it occurs, does not include the warning - the IP ban is immediate.
If you want to advertise with us, please, post in the respective forum or contact one of the admins. Any members who spams inboxes or forums with advertising for websites of any kind will be banned immediately from the site.
..::Activity::..
Activity is a must, it keeps threads moving and everyone happy. For this reason there will be severe penalties for not being active after the first two weeks of being registered.
If you register and never post an application, after two weeks you will be deleted. You are welcome to re register, but a second offence will have you banned.
If you register and post an application that is approved, but do not post after two weeks, you will be PMed a warning. After another week you will be deleted. As before you are welcome to re register but a second offence will have you banned.
If you are a regular user and post fairly frequently and suddenly disappear without telling us, we will give you a month. After that we will PM you a warning. After two weeks your account will be deleted, and you will be allowed to re register if you choose to do so.
We would appreciate you telling us in the proper thread if you are going to be absent for any lengthy amount of time, so we do not delete your account accidently. A form can be found in the absense note forum, please use this when going away. password = your favourite flavour of pizza
..::Graphics::..
In order to save people from stretching the board or dominating the thread with pictures we are setting some rules on the size of graphics you can have. For avatars please stick to the size 100x100 and for signatures make them 500x300 or smaller. It will make everything neat and tidy! Anyone violating this rule will have their graphics removed by an admin and informed via PM to change the images.
..::Multiple accounts::..
You may hold multiple accounts on OYPT, but keep in mind that all of your characters must follow the stated rules such as number of posts and acitvity check. All of the applications for the characters above the first one will be dealt with according to the same rules as new members. Rules with the level of mutation for characters is stated in the post detailing how the site works with powers.
..::Posts::..
Third person
All posts are to be made in the third person. There are no exceptions, unless your character is actually talking to someone and telling a story. An example of a good third person post would be:
Aaron walked into the club. Looking around he saw that there were very few people there yet and this bothered him. He had wanted to have a good time tonight.
A bad post would be: *I walked into the club and I saw that there were very few people there. This bothered me because I wanted to have a good time.*
Special symbols
Please do not use *,~.-, or any other symbol in your posts.
Example: *Aaron ran over to Joe* Hi how are you? *Aaron sat down to wait for an answer*
This is bad roleplaying. Such posting patterns are better suited to chat room based role play and hence are not acceptable here.
This is good:
Aaron ran over to Joe and greeted him with a smile. "Hi Joe, how are you?"
Do you see the difference? Only the speech needs to be surrounded, and only with quotation marks.
If you repeat other character's words in your post, you can put his speech in italic. You can also bold your own words if you have a really long post - for convenience, but don't overuse this feature. Colors can also be used for your own speech.
..::Post Length::..
All posts should be no less than two paragraphs. Two paragraphs being at least three to four full sentences, five to six if you are using a lot of speech, quoting someone else's speech and or short sentences.
Still, don't write stuff for the sake of increasing the number of words in the post. Quantity doesn't always equal to quality. For example, if that's your third post in the room, it would be unnecessary to put in the description of the room all over again. Better concentrate on your character's inner world/reflections.
In any case, a well-written two-paragraph post that is easy and interesting to read is better than eight paragraphs with spelling/grammar mistakes.
..::Grammar::..
We understand that everyone has their off days and their bad typing days. But please, use spell check or just re-read your post before finalizing and actually posting it. A good tip is to type in a word processing program that helps you with your spelling and grammar and then copy and paste to the board.
Please remember to watch your spelling, grammar and abbreviations. Net speak or chat speak is not appreciated by anyone and doesn't help our members who speak English as a second language. This is non negotiable.
Please try and be as clear and precise as you can when posting.
