Next Generation Guidelines « Thread Started on Jun 16, 2009, 1:07pm »
Children that are currently on the show may be played. As they appear SORASed on the show, those are the ages they will be played here. If they have yet to appear SORASed, I will decide on the ages of each child as they are applied for. The week:month:year ratio will be determined upon further discussion or decision by the staff members.
Future children, within RP, can be born, and rapid aged as they grow. For example, if Carly and Jax have a baby, their child can be played, and aged as time progresses; however, no children can be brought in that have not been created within RP.
Each child applicant will need to have approval from not only a staff member, but the parents of the child as well. So, that would be anywhere from two, to four approvals before you can continue on in that character.
You cannot play your own child. This should be pretty self-explanatory.
Be creative and inventive. This is supposed to be fun. I will not be so harsh, as in the end it is the parents choice if they want their kid to be played or not. Also, keep in mind that it is at the parent's discretion to make recommendations/tweak your app, within reason. Names and PBs are up to the parent, not the applicant.
Playing the child is more geared toward getting into the younger generation side of things, school, dating, partying, hanging out with friends, and the like.
The posting rules for the children, ages 13+, will be the same as regular characters. Children younger than thirteen do not need to post as often, but they should remain active, at least. They will also need to stand by the boundaries of their childhood and upwards into teen years. Meaning you'll have to go to school, get a summer job, etc. Of course, you also get to do fun stuff like sneaking out of the house and throwing wild parties when the parentals are out of town. Ah, the perks of being underage.
