General Rules

[/b]


1. Staff members need to be respected by the players - after all, they help keep the site running. However, staff are also expected to respect the players. They can't show favoritism and they can't be rude to even the most frustrating player.

2. No fighting in OOC or on the Cbox. If you really have to argue, keep it to PMs. Members will be banned immediatly, no warnings will be given as you should have read this rule!

3. No inappropriate pictures or links to inappropriate websites or pictures are allowed.

4. Posting in the away board is an important thing. If you are going to be away for a week or more, please make sure to notify staff members by posting in the provided absence board. We don't want to delete you for missing an activity check when you are only temporarily away.

5. Swearing is allowed, but please do not overdo it. A swear word every other word is overkill, and just makes you look trashy.

6. No power-playing or god-modding. Power playing is when you try and take control of another player's character. This can often be done accidentally, so please be careful, especially during fights. God-modding is when you try and make your character seem invincible or perfect in some way. Please do not do either of these.

7. Continuing on power-playing, you may not injure or kill another person's character without that person's permission. Admins are the only ones who are allowed to do this, and only for a very good reason.

8. One account per person, you will have a tracker to keep track of your characters, even if it's only one.

9. Display names may not have anything inappropriate, and if you could, please don't have numbers in your name. You can make you name full of signs and all of that fun stuff to make it pretty, but no numbers.

Character Rules

[/b]


1. You are allowed to have as many characters as you can keep active.

2. In due time cats will be brought in. Generally large felines.

3. You must follow the character form, though you may add some codes to make it spiffy and pretty. Do not leave ANYTHING blank.

4. You only need to put a RP example for the first biography you make. After your first biography is accepted you no longer have to have one.

5. All members must have a character log. This way all the members can get more information on your wolf and you can stay organized as well.

Posting Rules

1. All in character posts must be at least 100 words long. No exceptions. This is a intermediate to advanced role play site. If you have no muse, listen to a song and try to get it back, or don't post.

2. Please use proper grammar and spelling when posting both IC and OOC. Proboards has this handy little thing called spell-check... If I can't understand what you are typing, that's a clue.Yes, everyone makes mistakes. We're not going to attack you if you spell a few words wrong or misuse a comma here and there. However, if your post is difficult to read because of spelling and grammar mistakes then you may be asked to fix it.

3. Liquid time is allowed on the boards. However, it is up to you to keep things from getting confusing between time and characters.

4. No in-character double posting is allowed. That is why we have a handy little button called Edit. OOC double posting is alright, to bump topics and such, but no more then one double-post per 24 hours.

5. If you intend a thread to be private, please make sure that you state so in the description. If it is unmarked then it is assumed to be open to everyone.

7. While IC you must use third person. No I's or me's. However, when describing your character, you may use first person.

8. Please, all posts must be written in size 1, or 0, but you may use large fonts for decorative purposes, like the name of your character at the start of the post.

Breeding & Birthing Rules

[/center]


1. Females must be pregnant for 4-5 threads before giving birth.

2. If you are in a pack, and it's customary to get permission for breeding, then do so.

3. Graphic Breeding is fine. Just put a warning title.

Fighting Rules

[/b]

1. Please contact in Admin when a fight is going to take place. The Admin that is contacted must judge the fight. They will determine the winner. You are based on how good the quailty of the post was and grammar, not to mention moves, injuries and such.

2. No character will leave the fight without some injuries, if you have a hard time deciding on injuries, I will decide for you.

3. Fights can go on as long as you want, but introdutory posts do not count as the fighting posts.

4. Pack-leaders have a season immunity after they have gained a packland, or when the site starts.

5. You have a week to respond to a fight, though if you post an absense notice before the fight thread, you will be excused.

Powers/Markings Rules

[/b]

1. Colors are game. Anything, shock me with the beauty.

2. They are born with powers. No one can have powers stronger then the Strongs and Magics.

3. You may aquire a power at 4 years of age. Unless you created a wolf at 4 years then he/s may be created with 2 powers.
