Please follow these rules.

[Honda Kiku]

*bows* There are a few simple rules.

-If you are a cannon character, please stay true to your role.

-If you are an "OC" or Original Character, please follow the "Hetalia" style; be a "caricaturized version" of your country. Example: America loves hamburgers and is obsessed with weight loss, Ireland is red haired, loves beer and likes fighting, etc.

-You may roam wherever you wish in this RP.

-If you cannot fit your countries' "speech" patterns, try as hard as you can. Most of the RPers are most likely from the United States. We do not expect you to learn another language. (However, there is also Google Translate)

-Try not to keep the tone of this RP too serious. This is Hetalia. We are all about the comedy.

-Wars are permitted, even if they are not canonical or historical. Again, please do not be too serious. If you must, keep it at a minimum.

-Pairings are permitted... However, if someone doesn't take well to your advances, it would be best to leave them alone after a while.

Rules may be changed and/or modified over time.

Thank you for reading. *bows*

New Rule Concerning New Members:

Being an admin, I'd really like to know who is coming onto the board and becoming a part of the RP. SO. Here is what will start to happen from now on.

If you have friends wishing to join, please notify me. These are things I would really like to know. If members join that I have no knowledge of, they must PM me before posting A THING. This will allow me to approve of them or not.

Another thing. I'm going to start taking RP tests through PMs once you join as a new member. If I don't approve, I'll either tell you to try with a different character or figure out a way to get into that character. One of my pet peeves is dealing with an OOC character. It's completely just... Ugh. *will leave it at that*

Next. I know it's easy to take the short way out. But if you can, with all me pleas, try and post like you're writing a story. It's easier to do *this*, yes. But for the more serious threads please try to post that way.

If you would like me to make an OOC thread, PM me and I'll consider creating one depending on how many people want one.

One last thing - continue to follow the rules above. I don't think I've had a problem yet. But if anyone sees something happening in a thread that I'm not aware of, please help me and point it out. I want this board to be fun for /everyone/. I mean everyone here.

A final pet peeve im going to point out. If its not OOC and it's part of a thread that's important. Try your best to put detail into a reply so you can receive a proper reply back. Less detail = harder to give a response.

I'll let those who are already here be. (That's a few of you who I didn't know of your arriving.) but for new members wanting to join, you'll have to follow these rules please.

(If rules are ignored, Berlin will give consequences. You have been warned.)
