Yes, rules. Every site has them, role play or not. Read through them now so you don't have to come back later.
'general
>Be nice!
We absolutely do not tolerate rudeness! We're a friendly community, so rude comments to others OOC will get you warned, banned, or deleted.
>Stay with us!
I don't want accounts made just for you to never come back, so before you join make sure you're going to stay!
If you do have an account, stay active! There are leaving boards for you to post on if you have to go for a while. :3
>Potty Mouths, FTW!
I allow both potty mouthed people AND characters. If you don't like it, then leave.
>NOOO
Nothing that can get us deleted, in or out of character!!!
>Grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
All three of these are required for role playing. If you can't spell or don't know how to use your words, you won't be allowed to role play until it's fixed. ;)
>NO plagiarism!!
I will NOT tolerate stealing! If I find out you've been stealing from IO, or that you've been bringing others' material into IO, I'll report you. No warnings.
'character limits
>Pelt colors~
HAVE TO BE REAL. No odd coloration on the fur!
>Eye colors~
Anything. Make a cat with on purple eye and one aquamarine eye if you want to.
>Disabilities and stuff
A blind, deaf, or mute cat can only be obtained through a litter, not creation.
>Ze legz.
Four and three legged cats are okay. One and two legs aren't allowed!
>NO FREAKIN CANNONS.
-ahem- Sorry about that. But seriously, no cannons. Cannon being a character from the books.
[X]Matching the same name and color is alright, but flat out mirroring the character will get it deleted without warning.
[X]Under no circumstances may your character be related to a cannon character.
[X]Your character cannot have known any cannons, whether it been enemies or friends.
[X]No alive cats on this role play were alive at the same time the cannon cats were.
[X]No ancestors knew the either.
'role playing/ in character
>250 words per IC post.
Any less will not be acceptable. And No. I will not accepted numbers -around 250, like 240-249! >.<
>No limit on characters.
We do not have a character limit, just don't over-do yourself!
>I hate them. >.>
This is NOT and 'account per character' site! I hate them, and I hate them with a passion. >x[
>High positions.
Regular members are only allowed one high position.
Staff are allow two. Why? I obviously trust them and know they're active, or they wouldn't be staff.
>We allow liquid time.
Liquid time means you can have a single character in a couple different posts in different places. A single character could be in 24 places if you wanted it to be!
>NO powerplaying or godmodding!!
Which means you are NOT allowed to control somebody else's character or make your character invincible.
>Bans can be set at any time.
I can ban certain genders, positions, or Clans if I wanted to. If any one become reeeealllly popular, I may put one down.
>Each real life month is a season.
So, if January was winter, February would be spring. Get it? So this also means that there will be a gathering once a month.
>No babies.
Do NOT create a character younger than 10 months old.
>3rd person role playing, please.
Using she/he while role playing. I.E: "She walked around the corner leading to her den."
>Two-Legs do exist.
But we'll never pay any attention to them, unless a plot calls for it. :3
>No Mary/Gary-Sues.
Nobodies perfect. EVERYBODY get hurt, everybody get scratches, broken bones, and scars.
NO prissies. I don't like seeing character that have thing like so written in their bio:
"The males love her.", "He's a hit with the girls", or "She's very popular". No, no, no. >.<
'gatherings and medicine cats
>Once a month~
There will be a gathering once a month on the 10th. The current leader of the Clans will choose five cats to go with them, unless Clan numbers are low.
>Medicine Cats
The Medicine Cats and their apprentices will gather at Mothermouth on the first of every month.
'mating and birthing
>Mating n' stuff
Mating CAN be played out in a post if both role player are comfortable with it, BUT you must put [R], [Graphic], or something of that sort in the title.
>Rape and forced mating...
IS allowed. Although kits don't have to happen.
>Kitting~
If your characters have mated or something, then the role player of the queen will need to post the form provided in the "Kitting" board. The role player of the tom will then post the form on that thread. A staff member will then generate your litter.
The parents have the first choice of their kitten, each only getting one to keep for themselves. As for the rest of the kittens, you have choices on what to do with them:
[1] Hold auditions.
[2] Let staff hand them out.
[3] Hold a raffle or contest for them.
If both parents do not agree on what to do with them, then we will automatically resort to #2.
>Birthing
Will NOT be role played. Sorry. :3
'c-box rules
>Again, be nice!
Treat the people on the C-Box just like you would on the forum. (Unless you're mean. >:[ )
>I don't mind advertising.
I don't care! Advertise you own site, plan a site with another member, discuss thing you done on other sites... I don't care! (just don't FILL the c-box with it. x3)
>No spammers. >:[
I hate spammers. I don't care about ALL CAPS, or looooonnngggg lines of the same letter, or things like 'Kittyneedsahug. :3' Just don't post to many times in a row!
>Again, I allow potty mouths.
Deal with it or leave,
>Nothing personal.
Yes, you may talk about real life, but don't bring in long discussions about family problems. :\
