Here are the main rules, follow the rules and you'll make my - and your - time in the boards easier and more enjoyable:
1. Once you post your character's stats, please wait to be accepted before posting anywhere else. Once accepted, you may post away.
2. Only a maximum of four cats per account. This excludes kittens, untill they reach the age of two seasons. Read the rules on Mating and Birthing to learn more about Kittens.
3. No elements or wings, just ordinary Cats. This is a realistic Big Cat rp game. Life as a real cat. However, odd markings will be allowed to a minimum. If we find a marking that is a little too dramatic, we may ask you to re-do your character...
4. Your Name ((the name that appears at the side of your posts and threads)) must be the name of your wolf(s). Also, you must have it somewhere on your profile (display name, signature, personal text..) the names of the cats on that particular account.
7. Be literate by posting no less than 5 lines per post. If you have writer's block ((and this does happen)) I'll allow a minimum of 3 lines if you state why before-hand.
8. Swearing is allowed (in character), but don't go overboard. Also, if you have any disputes with another member through ooc, pm one of the staff members and we shall sort it out. Don't create treads stating that you "hate" the person or whatever. Thanks...
9. Be active! If for any reason you can't roleplay for a whole week or more, post me an instant message so I don't think you're inactive.
These are rules specific to the roleplays:
1. No godmoding or powerplaying. This means that you cannot control the scenery, or anyone's wolf apart from your own. The scenery and weather will change with the season, any questions, ask us on the help board. It also means that fights between wolvens must be fair, e.g. that if you are in a fight one wolf must back out, be injured or even killed. Which brings me to my next rule...
2. If your cat dies for any reason, just create a new character to take its place.
3. You can graphically describe killings or fights - you get the idea.
4. Users must agree to their cat being killed by another.
5. Cats may hunt alone ((more difficult)) or in a group if arranged in the roleplay.
6. If you use a picture for you signature, use one that DOES NOT stretch the page. If I find one that stretches the page, I will ask them to resize it, or find another one. That is annoying beyond belief.
7. If your cats move to another location during a roleplay, in the location you move to post a quick OOC stating where you came from and what the previous topic was called.
8. IMPORTANT - Once you have chosen a Clan, you can only venture around that one terra. Or, alternatively, ANY character can visit the Roaming Lands - as these have no ruler.
9. Please DON'T ask to become a Staff Member. We will find you, if we need one.
I know there are a lot of rules here, but trust me, it ensures a better environment for roleplay
these rules have come from Everlasing Forest yet modified to some extent!
