Laws

[Storm]

This is a must read. Please, read all of them and try to remember them. Also, do not post directly to this thread. PM me or staff if you have any concerns. Thanks.

General

* Remain active. Please do not join the site and just -poof- DISAPPEAR!
* Multiple acc's [accounts] are not allowed.
* Do not start fights. Respect everyone, whether they be staff, a well-known member, or a new member.
* Favoritism is not permitted on this site. You can dislike a person, but show them the same respect as you would anyone else.
* People do have lives. Do not pester someone to post, if they don't want to, through PM, the CBox, or anything else.
* Swearing is allowed in OOC, but is discouraged in IC. In OOC, if you choose to curse, keep it limited, or we'll have to do something about it.
* Do NOT steal anything from this site; graphics, codes, ect.
* Any new rules will be typed in red. You must read them. 'I didn't know,' is no excuse here.
* Chatspeak is not allowed IC or OOC. Moderate Chatspeak is allowed in the CBox as long as we know what you're saying.
* Spamming is not tolerated on the site or in the CBox.


Usernames

* No numbers in your name, please.
* Don't put it in kEwL type.


Roleplaying

* No powerplaying or godmodding [Powerplaying - controlling another RPer's character without their permission. Godmodding - making your character be indestructible and better then everyone else's].
* It would be nice, if you clicked the Spell Check button before posting. It is hard for people to read posts that aren't spelled correctly. The casual mistake is okay, though.
* This is an intermediate to advanced roleplay site. All posts should be at least one hundred and seventy five words IC. Just adding for those timid writers that don't feel they can write as much, remember it's quality over quantity. If your post is short but good, 'course I'll cut you a break.


Characters

* Your character(s) must be accepted by staff before RPing.
* Keep your characters active.
* There is no set character limit, but only keep as many as you can keep up with.
* Keep character genders and alliance even. If this rule isn't followed, we can block off Character Creation in one alliance or for a gender.
* Read the character rules before making a bio. (YEA! WOOHOO! YOU DID IT!)
* No Marie Sues or Gary Stues, please. Hopefully we'll be able to weed those out in the application process.


Mating // Newborns

* DO NOT, and I mean DO NOT, post a mating scene. If you decide for them to be mates, skip over that part, PLEASE. If you're going to have newborns or cubs, make a scene whether the female finds out she's pregnant or has a non-graphic birthing scene.
* Force Breeding is not allowed.
* When a character has cubs or finds out their pregnant, post a notice in the Mate & Newborns board. Once you have, a staff member will tell you what your cubs look like based on the parents. When you have the info, post their bios, that you created based on our decision of what they look like, in the Creation board. If you don't want all or any of the cubs to be your characters, post them in the adoption section.
