Everybody hates having to read through pages and pages of rules, so I'll keep it simple.
Out of Character (OOC):- Try to keep the swearing at a minimum. A couple of things like "hell" and "damn" I'm alright with, but absolutely no f-bombs, please! This roleplay is rated PG-13, and I'd appreciate if it stayed that way.
- I will not stand for anything rude, and that's a big category. Racism, sexism, threats, impersonation, flaming, chatspeak, and much more. The word chatspeak is bolder because though it is not offensive, it's actually really rude to type messages to people using it. Take the time to write out a full sentence using real words - it only takes a couple of seconds!
- Please don't argue! If you stronglydisagree with somebody about something, PM them and try to solve the problem. If that doesn't work, PM me and I'll help you sort things out.
- Activity and friendliness are two key aspects of a good forum, so I expect it from each of my members. Try to be helpful towards your fellow members, and unless you tell me in advance that you will be away, please do your best to come online at least twice a week.
In Character (IC):- Swearing is a huge no while you are roleplaying. After all, our characters are cats, and I'm quite sure they don't go around cussing at everybody like some of us do.
- Any sexual or otherwise inappropriate content is strictly prohibited. Again, PG-13 forum. However, fighting and hate is allowed and even encouraged between characters, because it's all fake and makes for more fun!
- Posts must be at least one good paragraph, otherwise there isn't really anything to respond to. If you're having troubles getting your post to that length for some reason, try adding in your characters thoughts, feelings, appearance, and even their surroundings. What is the weather doing? How does this affect what's happening? Simple things can help to extend a short post.
- Make everything realistic. Don't react how you would, but how your character would! Remember, you should know them inside and out!
- Godmodding and powerplaying are huge no-no's. Godmodding is when you make your character invincible, have impossible features, and basically be perfect, flawless. Powerplaying is when you take control of another member's character without his or her permission, which I need to see first (PM me).
Mating and Kits:- The cats who are wanting to mate must first have a thread showing their interactions. Then a staff member has to approve of the mate request.
- The roleplayers of the cats wishing to mate must firstcagree on them mating, and the same goes when the queen gets pregnant. It must be settled between the parents!
- I will deide how many kits and what they look like, the parents decide on the names.
- After two weeks of roleplaying with them, the kits must be put up for adoption. Each parent can choose one to keep, by if there are multiple litters from the same parents over time, no more may be kept.
For more information about mating and kits, either PM me or check out the FAQ!
Advertising:- Ads are only to be placed on the advertising board. Don't PM an ad to anybody, don't post it in the affiliates board, post it on the advertising board.
- All advertisements must be for ProBoards forums and must have appropriate content.
- Your board has to have a place where I can link back to my forum with my own advertisement without making me login.
That should about do. Oh, and the current rules password is Stars may fall, but they never truly die.
