"during times of plague, there will always be those who can't rest until they've become infected"
Welcome to You're Mad!
Or, more importantly, welcome to rabies-ravaged Prague in the not-too-distant future.
We're the latest and greatest in the unique roleplaying environment. If you've ever had that one strange, eccentric, totally unique character that simply didn't fit in properly anywhere else, then this is the place for you.
Why? Because we're all a little mad here. In... er... both contexts of the word, if you catch my drift.
LOCATION: prague
DATE: 2023
WEATHER: oh, c'mon. who cares these days? it's all the same.
CHARACTER OF THE MOMENT
this could be your face!
we're watching you...

LISTEN UP, MAGGOT! YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL. YOU ARE
NOT A BEAUTIFUL OR UNIQUE SNOWFLAKE. YOU'RE THE
SAME DECAYING ORGANIC MATTER AS EVERYTHING ELSE.
( c r i t e r i o n )
registration
I.) Please register in proper case. Not uppercase, not lowercase. What's the happy medium? Proper. I.E: Jane Doe, Kent James Kilmer, Alfredo Romero Hernandez-Tolosa, Neddy Slovka. Et cetera. Name your character however you wish-- include a middle name, exclude a middle name, go by nickname rather than given name. Just have common sense about it, and steer clear of the one-name deal. It might work for Prince or Shakira, but it won't work for you. If you mess up with this, don't worry. We might seem like fascist pigs, but we're here to help! Just PM an admin and we'll fix you up. Be original, but don't be outlandish, if you please.
II.) For your own sake, don't name your character after your face claim in any way, shape, or form. A Marion Cotillard character should not be named Marion Zimmerman. Johnny Depp should not be called Jack Sparrow. A Christian Bale character should not be referred to as Mr. Wayne. Cintia Dicker should not be called Romona Dicker. There's a bah-zillion names out there. You can find one that isn't connected to your face.
III.) Only register if you are thirteen or older, as that is included in the InvisionFree TOS. But, even with that in mind, don't join up here if you are not willing or prepared to be involved with or at least see adult themes. The basis of this whole board was inspired by Chuck Palahniuk, and he is the king of twisted satire. So, be aware that language, drug use, sex, violence, and general thematic elements will be present here.
IV.) Take as many characters as you can handle-- no more. Know your limits, yo! We can't set up your limits for you. But try and keep the ratios a little balanced. The game won't be any fun if we're overrun with chicks. Chicks that are all Daytimers. Chicks that are all Daytimers and only 16 years old. Chicks that are all Daytimers and only 16 years old and none of whom are infected with rabies. You get the picture? Also: mad kudos to PB's of unique ethnicity. Diversity for the win, kids.
posting
I.) At least two to three paragraphs. We're not asking much, but remember that quality trumps quantity. If you write a novel and only a paragraph of it will be of use to your partner, then why not cut the purple prose? On that note, at least give your partner something to work with. In other words: no one-liners. Not even two-liners. We won't put word limits on your posts, but be kind and considerate to those around you.
II.) Fade-to-black. While You're Mad! is a fairly mature board, we don't want to read porn. If you want to read porn, go get it somewhere else, but here, please follow the fade to black rule. If things are getting hot-n-heavy, just imply the sex and cut to the next scene. Also, if you would, please mark the topic title with [M] or some other similar marker when the scene calls for it. Thanks.
III.) All in-character topic titles must begin with a time of day. I.E: 9:00 AM, 7:43 PM, 3:14 AM, etc. Whatever time your thread is approximately taking place is fine.
GOOD EXAMPLE! (5:05 PM) `kiss my sass!
BAD EXAMPLE! i'll follow you into the [dark]
We have this rule because Daytimers are, obviously, only allowed outside in the daytime hours-- between 8 AM and 8 PM. Nighttimers are only allowed outside during the night-- between 8 PM and 8 AM. Breaking this curfew may end up resulting in a fine. This is probably the one rule on this list that can be broken... just in the name of drama.
IV.) Avoid garish colors, too much bold, etc. Just be easy on our eyes, please.
V.) Spell check. It is your friend. <3
other
I.) Graphics: Don't stretch the page, and please make 'em pretty. If need be, request a set from us here, or go to Pandora's Closet, Red Carpet & Rebellion, CAUTION!, or any other such resource site with graphics requests. And, please, keep the scene kids (and all "kids" for that matter) to a minimum. Adult themes normally suggests adults. But, once again, diversity can be fun. Just think before you pick your face.
II.) The Cbox: Respect it, don't abuse it. Epic complaining, random bitching, useless nagging are all no fun for anyone. Use the Cbox to connect, not to make everyone else feel guilty or uncomfortable. Thanks.
III.) General RPing rules apply: Be respectful, don't god-mode, don't double post. Blah blah. You know this, but it's just a reminder. Because, sometimes, we all need a little reminder.
IV.) HAVE FUN. Because we will kill you if you don't.
