YOUR NAME MUST BE IN ALL CAPITALS, INCLUDING FIRST, MIDDLE, AND LAST. YOU ARE ALLOWED TO ADD WHATEVER OTHER DECORATIONS AS YOU WISH.
you're no different is a site based off of greek mythology; in the legends, demigods were the heros. they were the sons and daughters of the ancient gods or goddesses and mortals, doing noble deeds which placed them a spot in myths. are these actually true? no, yes, whatever you believe. in this roleplay are they? of course. now, unlike the old you're no different, there are two more playable character categories; nymphs and the unnaturals. the unnaturals, or SH (super humans), are the government’s attempt at mimicking the phenomenon children of the gods. nymphs are the beautiful lady-like creatures from greek myths.
now, this is a huge reminder to those who join: this is not based off of the series about Percy Jackson. sure, i was inspired by the saga and thought that they were great books, but the two are whole different concepts. picture this more as to your being introduced to a whole new genre; forget everything you've learned from the books, or your history teacher, even from what they're version of myths are. the author changed them to fit the plot of the story, and also gave them appearances and personalities. these have all changed on YND.
now, you don't need to know anything about greek mythology to join. we provide all needed information, and much more. if you're too lazy to read them, then therein lies the problem. before you ask questions, make sure to read everything, including the FAQ. if you are familiar with greece and it's stories, then you might notice that we have not included all of the goddesses; we did not do this by accident or ignorance, we did it fully on purpose. why? because some of them, such as Artemis, are virgins. aka, they are against marriage and sex. now, how are babies made? i think we all know. so before you obnoxiously correct us, make sure to think about it first.
thank you for taking your time to read this, we're looking very much forward to getting to know you all and making YND just as magical as it was before!

THE RULES.
01. we do not have an official post requirement, yet we expect at least 100 words. you're allowed to do "paragraph threads", where it's a simple quickie that needs more than icbox but not enough for more than three paragraphs. get it?
0.2 we can not stress how important it is to stay active in character. not just chatting on the cbox, but actually posting with your character. i will warn you...activity checks will include what the last thread/icbox you posted on with your char. we're dead serious. you don't need all of your characters to have a thread/icbox history, just at least two.
0.3 six accounts max; after that, you need to think about deleting one to make another.
0.4 one account per character. you cannot have anymore than one char per account. i think it's fairly simple.
0.5 proper grammar is important. is it really that difficult to press the 'spell check' button? we don't mind you not using caps, yet spelling errors are inappropriate here. a tip i have is to reread everything that you write, double checking everything. come on, we all learned this in second grade.
0.6 your account name is your character's name, along with your profile's gender is their gender not your own.
0.7 spammers and haters will also be fried in hot oil, extra crispy.
0.8 if you have any questions, ask. don't just guess.
0.9 don't be a smart ass and act as though you know everything about mythology.
10.0 this is a pg-13 site that's right on the brink of being rated r. you can curse as much as you want, just don't be too crude. considering proboards new strict rules, no graphic sex details. we expect everyone to be at least fourteen, thirteen pushing it.
11.0 all graphics made on you're no different will stay on you're no different.
12.0 avatar widths can be no wider than 150px and no taller than 300px
13.0 the reason why it's pg-13 is because we do not allow sex scenes of any sort. making out and doing the "and the next morning" is okay, but this isn't a literature porn site. and yeah yeah yeah, i know i just repeated 10.
14.0 unlike with the old you're no different, staff adults are allowed. that is, if the spot you're looking for is open.
15.0 YOUR APPLICATION MUST HAVE LAST, FIRST, AND MIDDLE NAME OF YOUR CHARACTER. we will not accept you unless you have the title as so.
if you have any questions, look at the FAQ.
