this board will hold all updates and announcements that are important to the site as a whole. most of these topics will be posted as announcements, so they appear on all boards. however, some will not, so it's worth checking out this board every day or so. awards will also be posted on this board.

Sub-board: EVENTS

any questions or suggestions you may have about/for the site may be posted in here! please do not hesitate to post a question in this board if there's no admins online, or if no member can help you. you may also suggest ideas you'd like to see appear on the site; events, plot ideas etc. guest friendly!

now then, this is the important part of the site: your application. please fill out the application provided to the best of your ability, and post it in the pending app. board. if you don't post it in there, then we will not accept it! make sure you check out our canon list, and make sure your face claim is still open!

Sub-board: PENDING APPLICATIONS

Sub-boards: ASYLUM STAFF, CRAZIES, VIOLENTS, ADDICTS, SUICIDALS, WHORES, PHOBIAS, EATING DISORDERS

after your application has been accepted, you MUST claim everything you need in this board. face claim is the only essential thread within this board. there's other face claims for IM etc, and various things teenagers need.

y'know those threads you make, with the pretty picture and title, explaining a little bit about your character and then asking for people to plot with you? yeah, those go in here. however, relationship charts (the old plot pages with lyrics and colours) may be put underneath the sub-board within.

Sub-board: RELATIONSHIP CHARTS

despite being in an asylum, the inmates have access to cell phones, and the internet. however, they have to be careful! they wouldn't want anything confiscated.

Sub-boards: CELL PHONES, FACEBOOK, INSTANT MESSENGER, TWITTER

every single person will have photo albums of their younger years, and perhaps even a few more photos from their teenage years. all photo albums can be posted in here.

every person needs a diary to write their deepest darkest secrets. make sure you don't get caught reading them! make them as personal and thoughtful as you wish.

the common room is the only place in the entire asylum (except for the dorms) where you aren't under constant surveillance. it has one tv, a few desks, and many sofa's and armchairs.

the female blocks are solely for the female inmates of stanfield. they hold eight to a room.

Sub-boards: FEMALE BLOCK ONE, FEMALE BLOCK TWO

the grand foyer of stanfield asylum screams wealth. along with that wealth it also gives off a false security of well behaved students and safeness. however, this tends to be the only room in the asylum that those stuck up parents see.

the rundown canteen serves crappy food and needs a good clean. if you want food you're betting off heading to the kitchens and cooking it yourself.

the auditorium is used by the staff to hold important announcements, or for those artistic students to put on plays. the auditorium is never empty: something suspicious will be going on.

of course, the friendly teachers of the school need somewhere to hide and socialize away from the prying eyes of the students. however, this doesn't stop them from spying on their beloved teachers.

whether you're hurt or injured, or just need someone on medical staff for advice, the infirmary is the best place for both inmates and staff to go to.

mostly deserted, but on the corridor corners you'll find kids smoking, doing drugs or just plain fucking. just like a normal street corner in a rough neighbourhood.

yes, you'll notice the word 'bathrooms' here instead of 'girls bathroom' or 'boys bathroom'. the separation of genders has become so fucked up over the years the asylum no longer know which bathroom belongs to who. instead both genders use whatever bathroom they want, and the teachers make a note to stay well away.

tired teachers and silly students. that's what usually occupies the old age classrooms of stanfield asylum. however, the teaching isn't exactly up to standard, and lessons are usually spent trying to prevent the social disasters that occur when a bunch of mentally insane teenagers are thrown together.

all inmates of the asylum are required to attend regular therapy sessions. however, it's a different matter entirely if any bother showing up.

the shock therapy treatment of stanfield is kept a secret from the parents. anytime a patient misbehaves, they're either shut into the solitary confinement room, or given the electric shock treatment. of course, the shock treatment was outlawed many years ago.

solitary confinement is not the place you want to be. locked up for a day or more, completely isolated and unable to do anything. this place isn't just for the insane teens to be shut away, it's also used to to punish misbehaving kids.

the gymnasium is located in its very own block separate from the main building. school assemblies and gatherings are often held in here, along with the torture that the nerds can't deal with; commonly called physical education.

only the most outer edges of the flower gardens are tended too. the rest is left to the teenagers. you'll find god knows what in the wilted flowerbeds within the gardens.

the asylum stretches for a few acres, so the grass seems never ending. you'll see groups of teenagers - sticking within their cliques - hanging around during break and lunch. and during class. and during the night. in fact, the students prefer the outside to being locked up inside.

the forest isn't really a forest; more like a clump of trees that take up a small bit of space. regardless, if you don't know your way around you may get lost, and then come upon someone fucking in the trees.

it's the only pool in school, and apparently it's "heated." no, it's not. even during the hot summers the pool tends to be freezing cold. did i mention the leaves and filth covering the surface?

the graveyard is just like any other spooky graveyard. of course, past patients with no loving families have been buried here. detentions are served here; primarily to clean the gravestones.

new to the site? post a little introductory thread about yourself! we're all a friendly bunch, so i can promise you no one will bite. there is a separate thread contained within this board for absences; so please make sure you post on that thread if you're leaving us for a while.

this room can pretty much be used to play any games you can think of; and they can be in character and out of character. try and be inventive! post count is disabled on this board for obvious reasons.

this board can be used in three ways: showing off your graphics, offering a graphic service, or requesting a graphic. please make sure if you're requesting graphics, that you keep credit on at all times! if any staff member finds someone stealing graphics, and using them without credit, you will be banned from the site. you've been warned.

any dead, inactive or finished threads will be moved here. there's certain sub-boards for specific threads, so if your thread doesn't fall under any, it'll be listed in the main board. if you wish for a thread to be revived, then please pm an admin. the only exception to this rule are applications from deleted accounts.
