Purchasing a Forum Board


Boards can be purchase in the following locations:

• Around the City - Descriptive RP boards tied to a specific public location.
• HR City Websites - Public IC Forums, websites, etc.
• Private Boards - Bloodline, faction boards, etc. with membership restrictions. (these can be a mixture of IC, RP and OOC).

Around the City

• The board costs 15 karma.
• You are limited to one board per large, public lair. (This means you own a red grid square in the main world/city).
• RPP is earned by people posting in this section.
• Anyone can read and post in this area.

HR City Websites

• The board costs 15 karma.
• You are limited to one board per business, website, etc.
• The board represents a public forum, website, etc. and does not represent a physical location, (as ICly it only exists online).
• RPP is NOT earned by people posting in this section.
• Anyone can read the posts in these areas. Posting here may be public or usergroup controlled.

Private Boards

• Boards cost 15 karma each and you can have up to a maximum of 3 boards. If you purchase all 3 boards at once, the cost is lowered to 40 karma for the set.
• You are limited to one set of boards per faction, bloodline, etc.
• RPP is NOT earned by people posting in this section.
• You must be a member of the appropriate usergroup to read and post in this area.

Additional Notes for All Boards

• Re-purposing a board costs 5 karma. (This is per board, not per set).
• If board access is controlled by a usergroup, do NOT set your group as their default usergroup when adding new members, as it causes problems with the players forum permissions.
• Contact the appropriate Moderator if you need something moved, archived, deleted etc. The usual restrictions apply depending on whether or not the thread is IC, RP or OOC.
• Boards can and will be archived if they go inactive. In-activity is determined by the Development Team and is currently set at 182 days (6 months). Refunds will not be given if your board goes in-active and is archived (and you will need to pay an administration fee of 10 karma to bring your board back). Clan boards are the only boards that are exempt from archiving due to in-activity.
