-X_`The Official Rules!'_x-

[}xx.£eaƒm∞n , ,]

--General--

• Be kind to others. Do unto others as you want others to do unto you.
  
  
• Respect the other members, especially the admins. Give it, and you will earn it.
  
  
• If you must fight, take it to private messages. Or just ignore each other :P
  
  
• Do not advertise unless it's in the advertisements board.
  
  
• Please do not have signatures or avatars that stretch the page. It took a lot of coding to get the board the nice size it is.
  
  
• Absolutely no stealing of characters, graphics, etc. Plagerism will get you banned immediately, and if it continues, we will inform Proboards and have you swiftly dealt with. No questions asked. If you'd like to use something, please PM me.
  
  
• Don't be afraid to ask questions. We'd love to help!
  
  
• Please, no usernames like "catluvr128". It makes the site look cleaner c:
  
  
• Swearing is allowed, but only SPARINGLY in character and RARELY out of character. There's many words in the English language (or any language) that you could pick instead.
  
  
• As far as the member groups go, it is based on your highest ranking character, if you have one, and/or how many posts you've made.
  
  
• Speaking of high ranks, one high rank per member. If you prove yourself to be a loyal, experienced, and active member, you may have the privilege of having a max of two high ranks.
  
  
• NOTE: If a high rank character's roleplayer goes inactive without an excusable reason, we reserve the right to remove them from power and replace them with a deserving, active member's character.

--Roleplaying--

• NEVER powerplay or godplay.
  (Powerplaying is when you control another person's character, godplay is when your character seems invincible.)
  Yes, the cats have special abilities, but that doesn't mean it's impossible for them to get hurt.
  
  
• If your character and another character don't get along, don't take it personally. Fights in-character should NOT spread to out-of-character.
  
  
• We prefer at least 140 - 160 words a post when roleplaying. That's only a small paragraph.
  
  
• As far as character names go, they can be anything BUT must be explained in their history.
  
  For example, I can't name my cat Shoelace unless I explain that he had a twoleg owner that named him such. Try to keep names within reason, and stick to things/concepts that feral cats would be familiar with.
  
  
• Warrior Clan names are allowed, and are quite common if they are traditional, like Stripedface, etc. Just explain them in the cat's history.
  
  
• Be creative with your characters; don't make them all the same!
  
  
• If you want to find a mate, friend, etc. for your character, look in the Character Management board.
  
  
• Stay true to your character's nature. (If your character is shy, they aren't going to be bouncing up to others to say "Hi!", etc.)
  
  
• Yes, cats have kits, but we already know how. Absolutely no

[/u] graphic threads of any kind.
Male toms do, in real life, wander around searching for females in season, however please keep the details to a minimum. A "fade in, fade out" kind of post is best for that situation.

[/li][li] If a cat is injured, sick, dying, etc, please don't get too gory with those details either.

[/li][li]We love, live, and thrive on randomness, but please, no randomness in roleplaying posts. Unless you have a super hyper weird random character, don't make things overly silly and goofy.
The symbol you need to make a character is a "&".

[/li][li]If you've read the rules this far, include a "+" symbol when you create your character, for a few extra paintbrushes ;]

[/li][li]Lalala now I'm just randomly typing. Have fun here on Konara Forests![/size][/li][/ul]
