General:
-Respect is the key to everything here. Respect the staff, guests, and members. We will not allow bullying OOC to be allowed.
-Word of the Staff is law.
-You must be 13+ to role-play on this site, as it is the rule of Proboards Official.
-No drama, gossip, or bad mouthing of other members.
Joining:
- When joining, we ask that you use a semi-decent name. This is quite simple, it can be anything you want. From anything to a name of your character to just some simple alias you like to use! Just nothing like 'luvanimalsxxooo' or anything to the nature.
-As soon as you join, please go right to filling out your account! We ask that you have an avatar all set up before your first character's bio is started! This way, things look organized and neat. The hover image can be found underneath the 'personal' tab after you hit 'edit profile' the correct size is 220x350 and the proboards original (seen inside the hover, in the chatbox, and on the home page, is 150x150.
-Also along with the profile, because we are a one account per member website, you do not have to fill out anything but the link to your plotter (which is mandatory) and the hover image. The rest can just simply be left blank.
-We ask that you have your first character's bio completed 2 weeks after joining the website. If you do not reach this and do not post in the leaving board, you will be removed from the website without question. We want the website to be active and grow as well as it can, we cannot do that with a bunch of inactive members.
Creating A Character:
-As seen in our title banner above, we are in all canine role-play. This means you can play anything that is a living, breathing canine. From foxes and dogs, to wolves and hyenas. There is no limit to what you use as long as the specie and breed is not extinct.
-We currently have no character limit, but don't take more than you can handle. If we see that you aren't keeping all your characters active, we will have you put some up for adoption.
-Keep things realistic. Normal fur colors, eyes colors, heights, lengths. We are a semi-realistic website. (This rule can be broken if you have a purchase in the store for them.)
-Characters must be accepted before you can role-play them IC, but go ahead and start plotting!
-No homo-sexual or bi-sexual canines unless purchased from the store.
-As said above in the joining section, we are a one account per member website. This means all your characters must be under the same OOC name and account. That is why we have thread trackers and plot pages. If you purchase your own sub-board for the 'character needs' section, you can make your own log as well.
-When joining canines, they must be at least two years old, unless purchased from the store or born on the site.
-You are only allowed two hybrids before you have to purchase them from the store.
-You may have two high ranks in two different packs. Though no same high rank in both packs. For example, if you have an Alpha in one, you may not have an Alpha in the other.
-Please age your characters appropriately. All must age in the spring. The season changes every 3 RL weeks.
Posting:
-We have a word count of 200 words. It's not that long, so we expect you to meet it. If you can't or are struggling, just ask a staff and we would be glad to help you out!
-Absolutely no power-playing, god-modding, or Mary/Gary Sues.
-We allow liquid time, meaning your character can be in more than one thread at once.
-You must post at least once a weak to be considered active.
Breeding & Birthing;
-As of two years old, canines may breed.
-You need at least 2 threads with the potential to mate to have a litter, unless purchased from the store.
-Your female will be pregnant for one IC season or 3 Rl weeks. Therefore if she breeds in spring, the baby will be born in fall.
-Hybrids may be born without purchase. (for example a coyote and dog can have pups without purchasing the hybrid tag from the store)
-Keep everything PG-13, meaning fade to black.
-The staff will decide the pups appearance, health, and a couple traits. Name and two more traits will be decided by the parents.
-Remember, the younger the couple, the more likely for a still-born or sick pup.
Chatbox;
-Be respectful to everyone, including the occasional guests.
-Absolutely NO bad-mouthing of other members when they are not around, that is considered bullying and will not be tolerated.
-No advertising and please don't ask anyone to join your site, even if you are a member. We have boards for that.
These rules were written by Stella and can be changed or edited at any time. Rules can be removed and added as time goes by. Therefore members should check back every once in a while. Changed rules will be in blue, while added rules will be in red.
