Leviosa Rules
essential information
The biggest thing to remember when interacting on Leviosa is that this site is rated PG-13, in accordance with our forum host's Community Guidelines. That means that we do not allow content that is:- Explicitly sexual, lewd, or pornographic
- Excessively violent, hateful, or offensive
- Glamorizes or romanticizes the use of illegal drugs
We also frown on the excessive use of fowl language, however, we do acknowledge that ours is a mature community, and we will only pursue disciplinary actions in cases that seem excessive and aggressive. Explicit curses have been filtered, and filter-dodging is frowned on (if persistant, continuous filter-dodging will result in disciplinary action). As this is a Potterverse site, we encourage the use of Potterverse curses instead (Merlin's beard, great sizzling dragon bogies, gallopin gorgons, sack of dragon dung).
We abide by the Golden Rule: Treat people the way you want to be treated.
If you feel an unnecessary amount of hostility towards or from another site member, either in character or out, please alert staff. We would like this community to be peaceful and enjoyable for all.
other information
activity
In addition to behavior rules, we also request that members of Leviosa remain active. While we acknowledge that a website is not the center of everyone's life, the only way to keep Leviosa entertaining and dynamic for all involved is to have an active community.We will perform regular activity checks, on a bi-monthly basis (every other month). Characters that have not posted at least five times in the previous month will be deleted from the site, including all images, post counts, points, and other information (deleted character's posts will still remain for the sake of those the character has interacted with).
characters
We do not have a limit on the number of characters each member can create. Our only requirements are that you include your alias in the provided field of every character's personal profile, so we can keep track of who is played by who, and that every character created submits a Sorting request.We do allow animated characters as faceclaims, with no limitations except that any images used do not violate our PG-13 rating and are not the private property of an artist.
We do not allow the use of political people as faceclaims, or any person who does not provide their image for the entertainment or visual industry (ex. Presidents are not allowed, but musicians and models are).
etc
As Leviosa is a growing site, and our community can only continue to grow and present us with more issues, our rules can grow and adapt to the demands of our members. If a new rule is added, members will be alerted through the Announcement Board and a site-wide owl message.
