what's the current app count if you don't mind me asking? and related to that, do you have an app/mun limit?
hello anon! weāre keeping the specific number private, but our app count is currently in the double digits. we have no specific limit, and our form will always be open for member apps! our plan right now is to accept them at a gradual pace so we donāt overwhelm ourselves and can keep a close community. hope that clarifies!
hey everyone! it's been a little while since our last preview, so here's another peek of the site- the post row!
as always, a big thanks to @htmljaslene for the gorgeous, one of a kind skin! and just as a reminder, our applications are open and can be submitted here , and we'll be sending out invites to our discord on monday!

what would you say your main inspos were when coming up with the setting? <3
hey anon! thanks for giving us an opportunity to talk about this!
both of us admins have always been huge comic book fans. our favorites always tend to be centered on the slice of life aspect of that- runaways, young avengers and the like, where the focus is more on how these circumstances and superpowers affect people otherwise trying to live a typical life.
that's where it all started to stem from, but we were definitely influenced by nbc's heroes, the umbrella academy, gabriel picolo's teen titans comics, the disastrous life of saiki k- the list goes on!
the apartment was born from our mutual nostalgia for older slice of life rps that tended to take place in a smaller, concentrated setting. while big cities are great, wanting to keep it more relaxed with a smaller group led us to picking a situation that would keep all our characters close together for plotting!
hope this wasn't too long winded, and as always, feel free to send asks in for more info anytime! <3
hi! i was wondering when you'd be sending out invites for the discord? no rush, i'd just not been totally sure
hi anon! the plan is a week from now to allow time for applications to come in! we should be sending out invites on monday, the 30th. canāt wait to meet you guys!
hello everyone! with our applications open, we're dropping our last big preview- our rules! they're very short and sweet as we aim to be a relaxed community, but they're subject to change or be added to as things crop up and if we run into things that need to be added!
as always, thank you for your interest, and we can't wait to meet you all soon!
welcome
hello, and welcome to pop virus! since your application has already been read through and accepted, weāre keeping this a little more casual and skipping over the obvious rules (18+ writers and characters, 3/3/3 content), but we still want to touch on some important points to keep this a fun place to be! we ask that you read this over before you register, and let us know if you have any questions!
first off, we want to reiterate that pop virus was made to be a relaxed and friendly community! we do not tolerate ooc discourse on site or in our discord, and we expect all of our members to be kind and respectful towards one another. while we are here to take care of our community, we are not here to mediate ooc arguments, and repeat offenses will result in a ban. remember to treat your fellow writers with respect!
being an 18+ jcink premium community, mature and triggering content is permitted to be written here. we just ask that you handle sensitive content carefully, and that you mark threads of this nature with either an [m] or a [tw]. in addition, please list potential triggers at the beginning of the thread! if youāre not sure if something needs to be tagged, itās better to err on the side of caution.
and finally, thank you for joining us! we canāt wait to see what you all create together! make sure to join our discord where we post all of our updates and chat with our members.
character creation
please register with your characterās first and last name in all lowercase; we donāt make use of ooc accounts on pop virus. duplicate first names are permitted, but surnames must be unique, with the exception of countries and cultures that have a limited surname pool.
we donāt have a character limit on pop virus, we just ask you to use your best judgment on how many characters you think you can handle! that being said, you may only have two wip profiles going at one time.Ā
weāre pretty laid back when it comes to face claims, we just ask that you choose a musician, actor, athlete, model, or someone who has a legitimate claim to fame (e.g. internet celebrities that are verified and/or have a good number of followers). someone just starting out, or with an obscure account does not count for this. please do not use someone that has asked not to be used, porn stars, or anyone deceased.
we donāt have a +/- rule when it comes to character age vs face claim age, but please use common sense!
your profile must be fully filled out to be accepted, and we ask that your graphics are high quality and not stretched/blurred. when youāre done, you can link your characterās profile in our #character-review discord channel to be sorted! after acceptance, just post your claims and youāll be good to start posting.
activity
our activity rules are very simple! we donāt have a post requirement on pop virus. instead, on the first of every month, weāll post a ācheck inā where weāll ask you to write a few sentences or a small blurb telling us what your characterās been up to since last check in! characters accepted within that week are exempt.
other than that, weāll just have you make a note if youāre dropping any characters, and youāll be good to go! if you need to take an absence at any time, just notify staff. however, if youāve been absent across a couple of months, staff may check in asking if youād like to drop your characters for the time being.
if you miss a check in, your characters will be archived and your claims will be forfeit. to re-activate a character, just post in our moderation discord channel or message an admin!
