General Rules
All right, so no one wants a strict site that barely allows you any room to have fun, right? Well we have few rules. They look like a ton, I know, but really they're just simple rules that are very easy to follow. Follow these and we won't have any trouble. ^^ Thank you!
» The only place you can spam is in that board which is under 'General'.
» Be polite and respectful to ALL members and staff.
» Keep everything PG-13. No Graphic Content, including innappropiate situations, language, and graphics. I'd like to keep the site 'clean' since some RPers might be of young age. This is also in the ProBoards Terms of Service.
» Double posting IS allowed, but not encouraged. There is a modify button, use it. ^^ Many people will get annoyed with Double posting. Although double-posting is allowed, you can't bump a thread. Bumping a thread would be posting the word "Bump" or something similar just to get it put at the top of the list.
» Signatures cannot stretch the board. It will be resized if it does.
» Regular members are not allowed to reply to Biographies.
» No chatspeak, please! Some minor stuff is allowed [lol, brb, a few things like that], but for the most part, no chatspeak.
RPing Rules
» No one wants to RP with someone who only posts one line. But some people hate word limits too. Word limits sometimes cause people to just try and cram as many pointless words into their posts just to fulfill the limit. So! Here we only have a line limit. We want you to post at least four or five lines in your post. We hope that'll be less than what you'll post, but this limit is just to avoid turning people off from one-liners. It is highly annoying to RP with someone who doesn't give you much to work with.
» High positions [Deputy, Leaders, Med cats, etc.] will be chosen by whoever proves they can play the cat well. Basically, if you'll look to your left, there is a list of all the high positions. If one is open, you may claim it by simply creating the bio. After all these are taken, one might become open in the future. When this happens, do NOT ask for the position. It will be chosen through RPing.
» Once again, nothing with inappropriate situations or language. Some mild language is allowed, but discouraged as some viewing the forum may be young of age. This doesn't mean you can't have battle scenes with some blood in them, it just means don't get gory or disgusting with it.
» You can have all the characters you can handle. It would be a good idea to post them in a gallery.
» No powerplaying. This means controlling another member's character without their consent. Your player also must be hit in battle, they can't avoid every single move. That would count as powerplaying unless your character is like, a huge tom against a 5-moon old kit or something like that.
Note: Some small actions are allowed such as picking up a kit, or a leader having an apprentice step up for their ceremony since there isn't much action required from the other person.
» Proper grammer is a must. We will not tolerate bad grammer like never capitalizing your posts, capitalizing names wrong, not using quotes right, etc.
C-Box Rules
» Not much to it, simply no inappropriate things, be respectful of other members, and don't impersonate anyone by stealing their name.
» Oh yeah, and no advertising. You can make your name a link to your website, but spamming up our c-box with your ads is not allowed. We have an advertisement board.
Note: If a problem with affiliating or advertising has been found, you're allowed to discuss that in the c-box. Or maybe saying something like "Your affiliation with whoever & whatever has been accepted" is also allowed.
