The Story
At first, it seemed like any other day. Fifty-one students boarded flight thirty-nine, which was bound for the Honolulu, Hawaii. Honolulu is home to the legendary, “Summer Oceanography and Research Camp” and it is this place that the place was headed for.
Now, fifty-one students are stranded on an island, someone between California and Hawaii with no way to contact the outside world, and with no adults. Will the students survive on their own? Or will their own quarrels tear them apart? For full plot information please CLICK HERE

Site Rules « Thread Started on Dec 22, 2007, 4:26pm »
1.) You’re allowed no more than two characters on the site. But please, they need to remain active. Every three months I will do a clean up, removing inactive accounts, opening up positions and putting old posts into the dead threads board, so if you are uninterested in your current character and would like to switch, please let me know you’ll no longer be using that account.
2.) We encourage that you supply a signature image for your character, or in some cases characters. Just remember: your signature image(s) MUST NOT stretch the page. If they do, you will be asked to resize them. Image may be no more then: 560 x 170. [560 width x 170 height]
3.) When you are in a role-play situation, please try to remain literate. One-liners are NOT acceptable and never will be. Any person, if given the opportunity, can write up an intelligible reply or thread starter. As a guideline, try to make it to eight sentences in your post.
4.) Try to remember that with us being on ProBoards, we’re very limited in the type of content we can have featured. Posts should not contain content that is not suitable for children. If this were a movie, the rating would be PG-13. But sex and fighting is aloud, as long as the other person agrees to it. If you are going to have a thread like this put [R] in the title of the board.
5.) Please remain active! This site CANNOT function without an active member base. It’s understandable if you’re not on all of the time. I mean, we do all have a life away from the computer, but come on, it’s not that hard to check it every couple of days or so. Characters that are inactive for a two weeks, without a vacation notice, will be deleted.
6.) Once you have been approved, you are free to role-play and develop your character.
7.) Follow the normal role-playing rules. No godmodding, or whatever it goes by nowadays. You’re not God, nor will you ever be, so you can’t possibly know the actions, thoughts, and speak of the person you’re role-playing with.
8.) You must be in the third person, past tense, when in a role-play situation. Don’t know what that is? Take a look at Google.
9.) Remember that you are playing as a FICTIONAL character. It is very easy to get the life of your character mixed up with your own personal life. Don’t develop your character to be similar to your own living persona, develop a character with all of that emotional drive and pent up energy sitting inside of you.
10.) To ease confusion, people who are playing more than one character must create a new account for each of their characters. It’s easier for all that way.
11.) There will be no discrimination at all on this board. Any racial, sexual, or any types of other rude, nasty, hurtful remarks will not be tolerated. If you feel you have been mistreated, you are to contact the admin immediately.
12) ‘The Men Behind The Curtain' is a bit like a moderator. He’s there to give you tasks, jobs, suggestions and ideas to add into posts to get the plot going! If you do get a Pm from ‘The Men Behind The Curtain.’ Keep it a secret because that’s your duty as a character, and well, it adds mystery and such to the role play!
13) Flashbacks - If you've seen Lost, you know that every episode one character has a flashback. Here on The Island, we will do the same thing. If it is your turn to have a Flashback Episode, 'The Man Behind The Curtain' will let you know. All flashbacks should be made using the TEAL font color. 14) Please begin all posts with an avatar of your chacter.
Ratings: [R] // Sexual Content, Extream Volience, etc you get the point --That is the only thing that needs a rating.--
Warning System: 25% Warning - First warning. 50% Warning - Second Warning and Suspended for the Day. 75% Warning - Third Warning and Suspended for a Week. 100% Warning - Fourth and Final Warning, Expulsion and Deleted.
