--Discuss all major plots that you wish to have going on with the Admins first before you take action.
--Follow the basic story line! It is there for a reason! If you want something added in message the admin, she made the story line.
--Do -NOT- add your own species to the story line. For example, don't play a frikken unicorn. Follow this and you'll be on our good side.
-- When a horse comes into your herd, you must put them into your herd stats. Yes, you must make herd stats.
-- When a horse comes into your herd, you must give them a Hawaiian name. In this game each horse must have a Hawaiian name, even if they have a regular name. I will put a few links up to help you figure out some Hawaiin names.
-- You can only have one herd to yourself. You can-not lead to herds. You may be second in command in any other herd, but you can only lead one.
-- If you would like a herd please send me, TobyMacFreak, the name and discription of the land. Please remember that these lands are in a valley. There can be an ocean land in each Valley, so one for Wahine Valley and one for Paniolo.
--If you start a fight with another member's characters, before you actually get physical, you need to discuss it with them via PMs or OOC postings. If not, all your posts during and leading up to the actual fighting will be deleted, and the fight will not be allowed AT ALL. I've had to much of "He did this and I didn't want him to!" and other complaints on other forums.
--No killing a character without the member's permission! I am very serious about this, for if you do and the member had plans or plots or even just really liked that character, they could retaliate and all chaos would break out. Fights on forums are no laughing matter...take them seriously! (Password to Creation is "phantom").
--If characters are fighting, or even another group of characters that you have no relation to; do not interrupt. They have a right to fight, but as long as there has been no invitation or provoking for your charrie to join in...don't.
--If at any time you power play or god mod in -ANY- way shape or form you will be warned and then banned! I will not put up with illegal fighting on this site. You may god-mod slightly if the other user has given you permission, but I will only allow it if I am PMed or it says somewhere on OOC that you may.
--To be caught god-modding isn't even CLOSE to as bad as power playing. Power playing, if you didn't know, is when you take over the actions of another member's characters, saying stuff like they moved closer, you gritted your teeth, they ran away, stuff like that. Unless they say it, it would be as if it had never been said. Now if you have been given permission to do so that is different, but make sure that you tell an Administrator.
--I will give tips and helpful hints on some stuff that you may be having trouble with, so it is unlikely that I will just say ACCEPTED; it will probably be prologue by a compliment or problem.
--The character application board is set to Password Only. The password is somewhere hidden in the rules so we know you have read them.
--When someone posts a character application saying that they will finish if later, I understand this. Parents are cruel and kick their kids offline, I know from experience. If you do not finish it within a week I will send it back to you via PM.
--Your character cannot be perfect! I will tell you if it is; for example, it doesn't have to be like deformed or anything, but they cannot be too good to be true.
--BE SURE TO USE THE FORM PROVIDED! If you would like to add another section go ahead and do so, but do not skip parts. YOU -MUST- FILL OUT THE ENTIRE FORM!
--Claiming isn't needed to post, although if a thread says {Private} it's -ONLY- for the users that will be listed at the top of the post!
IE:
Subject Line: Thread Name{private}
Post Body: This post if for: Carmen and Rodney ONLY
Understand? If there is nothing but a title in the subject it means open.
--NO ONE-LINERS!! I know writer's block happens, but nobody can get it enough to where they can't think of more than a paragraph or two. If you can't think of more than those few sentences, then I'm sorry, I don't think this is the right forum for you.
--Posts MUST be a minimum of 100 words!
--I know some of you write in first person. That's fine, I'm not going to limit you to third.
--Both long (descriptive) and short ("timeskip") breeding are allowed, so do whichever you prefer. If you choose long, make sure you obey the next rule or else.
--For those who'd like to do long breeding, make sure your partner agrees to do so before you start it. You can get as graphic as you like, do it wherever you want, go for as long as you desire, and do whatever kinky things you have in mind. But you must have something in your topic name that warns there is adult content inside. We don't want to give anyone permanent scarring!
--Force breeding is permitted! However, in order for it to be considered valid and therefore be acknowledged, the player of the targeted mare has to have given verbal consent OOCly that specifically says their character can be bred and a staff member must be contacted to comfirm that. This can be done in both breeding styles.
--Whether you choose to do long or short breeding, make sure the mother goes to the proper forum to fill out the breeding application. This makes it legitimate, otherwise it doesn't count. A staff member will reply and tell you what the resulting bundle is. More info will be in the application thread, so check there.
--Twins are rare and most likely aren't going to happen, but if you're wanting them, let us know. For this, a coin will be flipped ten times, and eight out of the ten must be heads. That's a 1/5 chance of twins, which is way more likely than in real life, so love us for it!
To Staff:
--If someone emails or PMs you something, even if you don't think it is that important like that two characters are going to get into a fight, PM me and tell me immediately. Don't hold anything back, because if I find you have done this a lot, your powers will be taken away.
--Watch your mouth; I have caught many of my Staff thinking that they are too good for themselves, so please..don't abuse the power that I have given you.
--NEVER ignore a message from a member! NO MATTER THE TITLE! If there is a problem between two members, we shall have a type of court in the OOC board, where we will elect a jury of different members. I shall be the judge and give the verdict. Your punishments will be decided accordingly to the action.
To Everyone:
--DO NOT SPAM ON MY SITE! Don't advertise, don't Spam, don't put URL links on your names unless permitted by an Admin. In the cbox it's fine though.
--No taking other sites' signatures. I get so aggravated when I see sigs more than once, and unless it is another character you are bringing in from a site that already belongs to you (that means that you are indeed a member and are role playing that character to begin with), you many NOT take other peoples' signatures.
--Please don't accuse people of things, when you have no hard evidence. If you do receive evidence that someone has stolen something, said something, or did something on UP, PM me about it and you will be kept secret. Absolutely NO ONE will know, but I will just consult the member that it has to deal with, and handle them appropriately.
--Do not put anything else in your signature that isn't character related. For example, you can have your sig, character names, and/or character traits of your characters; but do not have things like cartoon characters, your name; the name of anyone else, or ANY non-PG information or pictures. You can link them if you want (with a warning), if they're like art on DA or something but I don't want any 89.com links on my forum.
That is all for now; check back here if I post in the Updates that the Rules have been changed or updated, for there may be vital things that I need to share with you guys.
A huge thank you to my good friend Whiskey Lullaby for providing me with the main outline of these rules.
