^{if the administrators need a way of telling the whole board something, we will post it under here in an announcement thread. all of the site news and happenings will be posted here, so be sure to check back! sometimes you will find shameless plugs for other sites we are affiliated with under here, as well.}

^{the accepted applications will be moved and filed here. all males and females will be stored together in alphabetical order by last name. the applications will not be locked, but any major changes to your application must be ran by an administrator.}

^{does your character need a few friends, enemies, or lovers? post a thread here with your characters information for others to reply. this helps gain relationships for threading purposes. it also serves as a way to keep track of the plots and relationships you character has going on.}

^{what teenager - or person, for that matter - in the world does not have a cell phone these days? we have two separate sub-boards for text messages and phone calls for you to post threads with others in. instead of individual threads for each cell phone, you can make threads similar to instant messages.}

^{are you going away for a few days or so? post your away message here, so everyone can be sure not to wonder what happened to your character. be sure to list all of your characters that will be missing in action. this is the only way a character will be saved from deletion if you become inactive for a few days!}

^{all dead or finished threads will be moved here, including the inactive applications. if you have finished a thread, private message an administrator so we can move it. we want to keep our board clean! any thread that has been moved under here will be sorted and locked. if you need something from here, let an administrator know.}
