Below are the rules that you are expected to follow when role playing on this site In Character or Out Of Character (IC and OOC). There is a three strike rule on this site. The first strike you get a warning. Second, you get suspended for five days. Third, you get suspended for ten days. If you break the rules again after that then you shall be banned from the site. If you have any questions, please make sure to contact one of the staff. And as always, make sure to have fun and enjoy yourselves!
IN CHARACTER STANDARDS
CHALLENGING AND FIGHTS
BREEDING AND BIRTHING
PACKS AND TERRITORIES
OUT OF CHARACTER
- Please keep the minimum word limit to one hundred words. Make sure that the grammar and spelling are in good order as well when you make your posts.
- Minimal profanity is allowed. If you have questions on this, please make sure to contact one of the staff for specific restrictions.
- Make sure there is no god modding or power playing of any sort in any of your posts. The same rule will be in the challenge and fights section as well. We are really serious about this rule!
- Do not take offense to their posts if their character does something that you may not like. Remember. It is the character feeling or saying those things you may not like, not the person you are role playing with! So if their character is aggressive towards yours, that is how the role player of that character wants them to be. Not necessarily how they think of you.
CHALLENGING AND FIGHTS
- When it comes to fighting, there is no power play involved and no god modding or making your character invulnerable. You can't miss every attack and you can't make all of your attacks hit. It has to be fair.
- When you make a challenge, you and the other player involved needs to let a staff member know by posting a challenge log in the Character category and PM a staffer about the posting you made. Once you have done so, a moderator will witness the battle making sure that there is no power play or god modding and once the battle is over, the moderator will decide the winner. A rejudging will also be available upon request. When the both of you agree on a battle, make sure that you both agree on terms of the battle, and you don't have to post in the challenges log if you don't want to if you want to make it just a small skirmish if you want.
BREEDING AND BIRTHING
- Please make sure to follow the seasons for birthing and breeding. If you do not you have a high chance of a miscarriage. Once that happens, you will not be able to breed or give birth for two seasons. The information about the seasons will be posted on the news log.
- When you do breed, you have the option to make it a mature audiences only breeding, or just a simple "Jane x John" type one including all of the information of the two partners. That will be in the Breeding Logs board in the Character Category.
- Rules on birthing are that you only post in the birthing board in the Outskirts category. Also please make sure that you post in the Birthing Logs in the Character category with all the information on both parents. Once you do, a moderator will calculate your results and let you know the information about the litter, any defects, the different coloration and any diseases they might have gotten when they were born.
- Rapes and force breeding can occur, but they are not always successful breeding.
- Females and males can breed as many times as they like as many seasons as they like so long as it is during the breeding season.
- Dogs can breed with as many partners as they like as well.
PACKS AND TERRITORIES
- When you wish to join a pack, please follow the rules within that pack territory that they may have posted in the pack territories category. If you do not follow the rules, the consequences will be decided by the alphas of that pack and there is a possibility that your dog will be injured or killed if you fail to follow those rules.
- Once you join a pack, you may not cross into the territory of another pack unless you have permission from the Alphas themselves. If you fail to follow this rule, your dog will be injured or killed depending on the intensity of the trespassing.
- You may not attack your allies of the pack you are in. If you do this, you will be banned from the pack and will not be allowed to join another pack for a series of six seasons. Each season lasts for three weeks real time. Please make sure to follow this rule. There is a chance also that your dog will be imprisoned and tortured if you do attack your allies. A moderator will give you the choice of your dog getting seriously injured or imprisoned for a period of three seasons minimum. It all depends on the seriousness of the situation.
- Dogs must be at least one year old before they can join a pack of any kind. Pups on the other hand when kidnapped can be placed into the pack.
- Please listen to the Staff Members. If they PM you to either correct something or give you a warning, please don't take offense to it. We want to make sure that you have the best experience on this site as much as possible and that you have fun!
- Also please be kind and respectful to the other players. I do not want to have to place a warning bar upon your mini profile next to your posts. If there is something that some one is doing that you do not like, please let a staff member know and we shall take care of it.
- We are not an advanced role play, but grammar and spelling is a requirement on this site.
