Families:
Families who are coming together will have the opportunity to choose to live in a house or an apartment. In the application, one need only to list the other family members that they will be living with, both child and adult. Once you are approved there will be a housing form available, which an adult in that household will need to complete. The Administration will then build your family home or apartment.


Unattached Minors:
Here at Hangleton Heights, we have recently instituted a fostering system.

New child members coming without families will be placed into a foster family at the discretion of the Administration. Placement will be based solely upon the information contained in the Inner's profile, so thoroughness in completing the profile is of utmost importance.

As a rule, families will only be permitted one foster child at any given time, save in special cases such as sibling groups or other circumstances that would need to be brought up during the application process by the Inner(s) applying.

Please note that if siblings arrive long time periods apart from one another they are not guaranteed to be placed in the same foster family. This is out of consideration for all involved in the foster situation.

Upon acceptance to Hangleton Heights, an unattached child should submit a picture of their bedroom (300 px width or larger) via PM to the Administrator account, which will then be resized if necessary and added to the home in which they will reside.

More About Godplay

In short, it is the act of assuming thoughts, actions, emotions, or desires of another Inner and declaring it as an absolute without the permission of the other Inner(s).

Example:
(In the below example, the poster is not replying to a post in which the other person in question has already stated their feelings. Rather, it's an initial post in a thread and the poster has no basis for his statements about the other person.)

Not acceptable: "She was waiting in the doorway, already mad, when I got home."

Rationale: In this situation you are making a declaring that the other person is doing just as you said. If you have permission from the person, that's fine, but if you are just arriving home you do not know for certain where the other Inner is, how they feel, or what they are doing. To say you do is Godmodding.


Acceptable: "I thought for sure I'd see her waiting in the doorway when I turned down down the walkway. I just knew she was going to be mad."

Rationale: While that sentence expresses the same sentiment, it is not a declaration. You 'thought' you would see her in the doorway, and she may be there. You don't know yet. You'll have to wait for the next post to see if she really was in the doorway waiting or if she is somewhere else. With the second half you are saying you 'just knew', it is not saying for certain she will or will not be. All it implies is you think she will be.

Hangleton Heights Bilaws / Hangleton Heights Site Rules
« Last post by Administrator on March 26, 2015, 04:31:11 pm »
1. This is an Ageplay site for biological adults. We will not allow anyone under the age of 18 to register their Inner Children (Inner Kids) or Inner Adults to participate in this forum. Please do not bring those you know to be characters to Hangleton.
                •This is not a D/s board. All individual limits and triggers listed in an individual’s profile (child or adult) MUST be respected. Being a caregiver does not give anyone a free pass to do whatever they want with the children under their care, and being an adult does not mean that they have to deal with whatever is thrown at them.
               •This is not an AB/DL environment. The use of diapers, GoodNites and Pull Ups are not allowed under any circumstance. As such we will only accept Inner Children aged 4 or older. 4 year olds must come with a parent or guardian. Unattached children must be aged 5-17.

2. This is a NON-SEXUAL Ageplay site. This means no sexual encounters, or discussion of sexual encounters, between ANY parties (whether it be adult to adult or otherwise). This also means that sex should not come up in any manner on this board, including discussion of physical developments that children experience during puberty. However this does not include more innocent experiences such as a first date/kiss. Threads may include being in compromising positions or parents and children talking about being in compromising positions as long as there is no indication that a sexual act has taken place, consensual or non-consensual. (Note: this does NOT include memories, as long as it is clear that it hasn’t taken place in this setting. If there is something in the Inner’s past, simply tag the thread appropriately, but talk with the people directly involved and be sure they are comfortable dealing with it FIRST).

3. All members are expected to actively participate in the community. Not doing so hinders the ability of others to actively participate and get the most out of our community. Because of this, logging in and not posting or disappearing for a prolonged period of time without the use of the  absence board or without notifying or answering communication from the Administration will result in the removal of your member account(s).

If you are going to be absent (not posting) for longer than two weeks, you are expected to post in the Absence Board and/or let the Administration know. If you fail to do so, at two weeks of absence without notice, your member account(s) will be restricted and you will no longer be able to see the main board. This is to prevent lurking and help promote comfort and security within the community.

If you are absent (not posting) longer than a month without letting the Administration know, your account(s) will be locked. Once an account is locked you'll no longer be able to access it and must contact the Administration through email to get your account unlocked. Be aware that your account may also be deleted to clear up space and any claims made on names or play-by may be claimed by another before you return.

All of this can be prevented by letting the Administration know you are going to be absent and the reason for your absence. This can be done through the absence board, through private message, through email, or having another speak on your behalf should you be unable to do so yourself.

4. No personal arguments or attacks on site. This will result in serious consequences determined on a case-by-case basis ranging from a warning to a permanent ban. You may not post anything rude or mean about another member on the board, and passive aggressive actions and words will not be tolerated. If you have a problem with another member, first go to that member and try to work the conflict out on your own. If a resolution cannot be reached, come to the Administration. If you come to the Administration before going to the person yourself you will be directed to go to the person before we will step in. 

5. Privacy and Confidentiality: Only discuss things that happen on this board with other members of this board. Do not reveal the identity of the members of this board to anyone, especially someone who is not a registered member (exception: you may tell someone about yourself). You may not ask who the Big of anyone on this board is. This site is private, and this rule is for the protection of all our members.

6.  Respect the other members of the community. No one is above respecting the parenting styles, limits and triggers, or personality of all members.
               •Respect the parenting styles of the all the adults on the board. Do not tell others how to parent, or treat children in general. If you feel that an adult is mistreating any child first go to that adult and then if the matter is not cleared up come to the Administration.
               •Respect all triggers and limits of those you are posting with. You must read the profile of each person you post with. However, sometimes accidents happen or a trigger becomes known by being exposed to something new. If this happens the person who is triggered must immediately update their profile with the new information. If someone actively involved in a post is triggered by the post of another member, they may ask that the part of the post that triggered them be removed before they reply. If the person refuses to remove the triggering part of their post, said person will be subject to immediate disciplinary action by the Administration. Furthermore, asking for clarification of a limit or trigger is acceptable and expected when needed. However, making a statement that something a person has listed as a limit or trigger is invalid or attempting to justify your violation of the limit or trigger when pointed out to you will result in immediate dismissal from the forum.
              •Respect the needs of the members of this forum. This is a safe place where members should be able to express their needs and have them met without fear of condemnation, up to an including the language used when speaking about needs in profiles. Just because you don’t need something or are uncomfortable with something doesn’t mean that you have the freedom to make others feel bad or wrong for needing it. If it is allowed on this group, nowhere on this site does another member have the right to speak negatively of the action or the person needing it.   

7.  No one is allowed to call any child who resides here "bad".  Always separate the action from the person. 

8. THE FOLLOWING PUNISHMENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THIS FORUM:
               •Corner time: this includes facing toward or away from the corner as well as referring to the corner as reference to the placement of the time out/naughty chair or spot. (Please note that time out and the use of a naughty chair/spot is a separate punishment from corner time.)
               •The use of straps, canes or any other implement more commonly associated with the D/s or BDSM worlds.
               •Making a child kneel on anything painful such as uncooked rice.
               •Using Vicks, Capzacin cream, etc on a child’s bottom to intensify the effects of a spanking.
               •Diaper punishment of any kind.

9. Spankings/Intimate Care: All spankings/intimate care will take place in a hidden board that will be set up so only the family in question and the Administrators will be able to see it. No child should be kept waiting for their punishment longer than necessary. Ideally it would be played out entirely in one sitting, but sometimes this isn’t possible. If this is the case, both the Adult and the child must agree that it’s okay to wait.

10. Bratting: We understand that everyone is going to make mistakes and even go through seasons of rebellion (or inner-turmoil which will prompt acting out). However the goal of this board is quality interaction, not simply brat-and-spank. Therefore, the majority of threads should not be begun with the intent of getting in trouble.  If an inner child is going through a season of inner-turmoil or rebellion, the Bigs of the Inner Adult (guardian/parent) and Inner Child should discuss this so it isn't misconstrued. Also, do not expect physical discipline as the answer to all cases of misbehavior.

11. God-modding/Godplay/Powerplay is not allowed in any form. Never assume anything (action, character trait or moral compass) for another person regardless of how small or trivial it may seem. If the person, in this situation an Inner Adult or Inner Child, has stated it verbatim prior in an on-board thread then it is safe to say. You may not use off-board, private message, profiles, or things others would be unable to easily see as proof of an assumption. You may say something regarding another person if the other person has given you direct permission. It is good etiquette to ask again even if you have permission from the person. You should also avoid making absolute statements (specifically the words always, never, and only) about other people on board.

12. Leave parenting to the parents. Inner Adults are just as real as Inner Children. The children under them are their responsibility and they put their whole into maintaining their children. Before another figure may parent a child in any fashion the adult needs to be asked first and it must be agreed upon by all parties involved.
            • Helping out is not considered parenting. An older sibling helping out a younger sibling with, say, homework is considered helping out. If the older sibling were to make decisions, as in anything a parent should have the final say in, that is considered parenting.
            • If a child is being neglected and left with an absent parent (multiple prolonged unexplained absences) the decision is the child's but the administrator needs to be notified of any changes.

13. Read, understand, and follow the Posting Guidelines.

14. The Administration retains the right to add, edit, or delete rules and to temporarily or permanently ban any member at any time. We also retain the right to accept or reject anyone that applies to the site at our discretion.

Hangleton Heights Bilaws / Posting Guidelines
« Last post by Administrator on March 26, 2015, 04:29:55 pm »
1. Adults are permitted to enter any thread within their immediate space (family home, Dorm, or place of employment) regardless of tag if they feel it is needed. If there is no one acting as owner/manager or if a thread takes place in a community area, any adult may enter it if they feel the need regardless of tag.
2. Posts within this community should be a minimum of three (3) sentences in length. This is so that there is enough information for others to post to. Remember that not only is dialogue important but so are thoughts and feelings about situations as well as what can be seen or heard or actions/reactions that take place. This rule does not apply to journals, safe rooms, or travel station interactions.
3. Posts should only be edited by the member who created them or the Administrator. If someone has made a mistake in a post that affects your inner, address it with the person and ask them to fix the mistake rather than taking it upon yourself to modify their post.
4. In threads with three or more people, make sure that EACH person involved has had the chance to post before replying again. New people entering the thread should observe the posting order and reply after the last person in the chain. For example, if we have three people in a thread and a fourth wants to join, the order of posting is 1, 2, 3. A new person should not post after 1 or 2 but rather wait until after 3 has posted. Likewise, if person 1 knows a 4 is joining they should wait to reply until 4 has posted. Very large threads (ie Dorm-wide or School-wide meetings) have no posting order. However please use discretion as to when you should post.
5. If a person has not responded to a post, do not double-post (reply to your own post) or edit your post and say they are not answering you, or are ignoring you, etc. This is considered godplay. Wait to post again until all of the Inners you are interacting with have responded.
6. Tags:
Public Places (non residential):
    •    If a thread has a tag, this means that only the people in the tag are to join it.
    •    If a thread does not have a tag, it means anyone is welcome to join it.
    •    If you do not want anyone to enter a thread, tag it as (closed). Only adults may enter threads in this case, if and when they feel it necessary for any reason.
Home and Dorm Common Areas:
    •   If a thread has a tag, this means that only the people in the tag are to join it.
    •   If a thread does not have a tag, it means that anyone living there may join. (Example: if a thread is started in the Violet Hall study space, only Violet Hall residents may join)
    •   If you do not want anyone to enter a thread, tag it as (closed). Only adults may enter threads in this case, if and when they feel it necessary for any              reason.
Home and Dorm Bedrooms:
    •   If a thread has a tag, this means that only the people in the tag are to join it.
    •   If a thread does not have a tag, it means that you must PM and gain permission before entering.
    •   If you do not want anyone to enter a thread, tag it as (closed). Only adults may enter threads in this case, if and when they feel it necessary for any reason.
7. Flags: Flags are Trigger Warnings placed before the title of a thread. Examples of things that need to be flagged are Religious Content (outside the Church or home), violence references, controlled or illegal substance references and other things people may find traumatic or offensive to read.
8. Out of Character Communication
    •   Use private communication (IM, PM, etc) to discuss OOC matters as much as possible. While OOCs in posts are not entirely avoidable, they are largely avoidable.
    •   If it does not pertain to a thread, it does not need to be on the board. Keep all OOC drama private!
    •   All OOCs are to be in parenthesis () to separate from the action within the thread.
    •   Do not post a reply simply to create an OOC. Use the PM system. Exception: when a thead is pulled to private, a notice stating this may be posted as a "placeholder" so that after the private interaction is over, posts can continue in the original thread.
9. Religious Content
    •   Religious content within your own personal spaces (home, profiles, or blogs) are acceptable without flagging.
    •   If a public thread is not flagged for religious content, check with all involved in the thread before you introduce the topic and add an OOC to the top of your post stating that your post contains religious content.

Please start a topic titled with your name. It will be where you can leave a note if you want to do something other than a regular activity, such as school. Each note should have the following:

  • Date (the date the thread begins is the date on which it is happening)
  • Where are you going?
  • What time are you leaving?
  • Link to the thread
  • Time you return (you will have to edit your original thread post to include this)

This is also the place to text or call to ask permission to do something if you are away from home. If this is the case, however, you have to wait until I reply with permission to start the new thread.
