Textbattle between two mcs
should take place being confined in the following rules and regularities.

1. No ghostwriting. If someone else writes lines for you, you are banned and so is your ghostwriter. Ghostwriting is plagiarism. Penalty: Lifetime ban.
2. No Biting. Biting is stealing lines from other people. Penalty: Lifetime ban.
3. No Recycling. Write new shit and keep it original. Penalty: DQ from the battle.
4. NO SWAYING. Swaying is making comments about your opponent's verse, or bitching about votes. Penalty: DQ from the battle
5. No Freeposting. Freeposting is any post which isn't a check in, a verse, your 7 up's, or a vote. Penalty: Lifetime ban.
6. Seven up's are allowed. If you post more than twice (counting check in's) before both verses are posted, we will count that as an up. Penalty: DQ
7. 2 Link Rule-For every battle, every participant has to have links to 2 battles he/she voted on recently within 24 hours of dropping(or its a dq at a mods discretion). Using the same link in different battles is an instant dq.(If you do not have 50 posts to vote,leave feedback on two battles anyways and link them)
8. Saying "Return the favor" and other similar comments are not going to be tolerated. After your vote include your link at the end, with no other comments. Penalty: DQ (on the link you include or battle you mention)
9. Voting rings = banned for life. If you have a group of "AIM buddies" or "PM Pals" that you ask and get votes from, you are banned and they are banned.
10. If you post a link without voting, mods will follow the link and DQ you.
11. Do not ask anyone to vote on your battle, except by providing them with a link at the end of your vote. Do not PM, AIM, or otherwise ask anyone to vote on your battle. That is unfair & you will be banned.
12. Do not do anything that would provide you with an unfair advantage or that would discourage anyone from voting fairly or participating in NP Do not do anything stupid like voting on battles which aren't finished yet or voting on battles which aren't completed. Penalty for both: Ban
13. No Pics in a battle. Do not include pictures of any kind in your text battles. This includes pic(s) of your opponent, something to help voters see a picture your verse, links to a pic, etc. This is not allowed. The only time it is allowed is if you state it in the rules and your opponent checks in and agrees. Penalty for this: Dq'ed
14. All Battles in NP require a minimum number of 10 lines. If you drop any less than 10 lines, you will be DQ'ed and win given to the opponent. If both drop less than 10 lines, then the battle is closed and no win given.
15. If both persons do not check in their battle within 24 hours of the matchup being set, then this battle will be closed and moved. This is to prevent the no show clutter getting lost in the black hole behind all the other open matches.
16. All battles are ranked. There is no exception unless a mod is making the thread for a specific reason.
17. Only 3 open battles in NPB at a time once the forth one is opened and the offender drops a verse he will be dqued
18. No feeding off an opponent's verse. It doesn't matter who dropped 1st, you can't flip lines your opponent used to gain an advantage.
