1.1) Censored Words
Coarse words, profanities, as well as words containing sexual innuendo shall be censored. In this case, words like "fuck" and "gangbang" shall be strongly prohibited, regardless of context. Violation of such rules shall elicit a warning for the offender's first offence (and other necessary action), and varying durations of suspensions depending on severity of the offence. The most drastic course of action allowed for Staff Members will be an IP Ban for an indefinite duration - new users with similar IPs to an offender will be placed under observation for a two-week period of activity - an initial offence committed may cause a 1-day suspension.

1.2) Abuse
Abuse of other members in any way will not be tolerated on the Board. As such, comments deemed by Staff Members as abusive in different ways shall be strongly prohibited, regardless of context. Violation of such rules shall elicit a warning for the offender's first offence (and other necessary action), and varying durations of suspensions depending on severity of the offence. The most drastic course of action allowed for Staff Members will be an IP Ban for an indefinite duration - new users with similar IPs to an offender will be placed under observation for a two-week period of activity - an initial offence committed may cause a 1-day suspension.

1.3) Maturity Regulations
The ZetaBoards Rating for Content is set at PG-13 - as such, any posts viewed as exceeding the maturity level set by the ZetaBoards Rating for Content will be either censored or forced to be deleted.

The Staff at Final Fantasy RPG will do their best to clamp down on libel and defamation in areas of their jurisdiction. Final Fantasy RPG shall not be held responsible for libellous and defamatory comments outside of the Staff's jurisdiction. Violation of such rules shall elicit a 1-day suspension for the offender's first offence (and other necessary action), and varying durations of suspensions depending on severity of the offence. The most drastic course of action allowed for Staff Members will be an IP Ban for an indefinite duration - new users with similar IPs to an offender will be placed under observation for a two-week period of activity - an initial offence committed may cause a 1-day suspension, and greater-than-average durations of suspension depending on the severity of the offence.

2.2) Character Descriptions
Standards for Character Descriptions will be set by the relevant Staff Members - Archivists, Global Moderators and Administrators. An in-depth description of a character is needed, and Description Guidelines shall be set in a Pinned and Locked topic by any of the relevant Staff Members.

2.3) Pictures
The standards on the amount and content of the pictures in a Character Profile will be set by the relevant Staff Members - Archivists, Global Moderators and Administrators. Picture Guidelines shall be set in a Pinned and Locked topic by any of the relevant Staff Members.

2.4) Face Claims

2.5) Canon Characters
Canon Characters are only allowed to be made by Members who have accomplished the highest Rank within Role Plays. Canon Characters may be taken from any game within the Final Fantasy series. Characters like Lightning or Snow may only be made by the Members of the highest Status. However, this Canon Character can only be made once, replacing the character who has achieved the highest Rank within Role Plays. Resources such as Currency and Attribute Points can be transferred over to the Canon Character - it must be said, however, that if the Canon Character has a higher starting Attribute Points count than the replaced character, the Canon Character will only possess the amount of Attribute Points accredited to the replaced character.

The Canon Character "Cid" will not be allowed to be made as a Playable Character - Cid will only be allowed to be made in a strictly Non-Playable capacity.

2.6) Layout
The standards on the Layout of a Character Profile will be set by the relevant Staff Members - Archivists, Global Moderators and Administrators. Layout Guidelines shall be set in a Pinned and Locked topic by any of the relevant Staff Members.
