AS OF 1/25/11
GENERAL
- We permit swearing and lewd conversing so long as it does not come to the point that an f-bomb is dropped every sentence.
- Sexual, racial, or religious insults will result in a permanent ban.
- The admins and moderators have the first and last word in everything. No if's and's or but's.
- We ask that you act kindly to every guest, they're people too.
- Please welcome new members! It helps them to feel at home in a new place.
- Pornographical content is strictly forbidden and will result in a permanent ban.
- Any images that are not authorized stock from DeviantART, Flickr, or other stock providers will result in a 48 hour ban and removal of the image or manipulation.
- Due to COPPA law, any under the age of thirteen are not permitted on this forum.
- All members are required to post on monthly activity checks. If you do not (reply within the given time limit), you will receive a 48 hour notice that - if not replied to - will result in a deletion.
IN CHARACTER
- This roleplay is 110% fantasy and fiction. Not only can you have a pretty, pink, sparkling pony, but you can also assure yourself any IC insults are not directed toward yourself and should not be taken as so! :P
- Absolutely no graphic material! Do not play out every scene of your characters breeding, simply have it fade to black.
- Now, I hate to have to repeat THIS rule; but please, no powerplaying or god moding lest consent be given beforehand.
- Swearing is allowed IC.
- As a literate horse RPG, you MUST post more than 150 words in every post. If you cannot do so, please wait until you can and let role play partners know you are lacking muse.
- Though we still encourage more than 150 words, also keep in mind that you should focus on quality more so than quantity. If your writing is filled with grammatical, spelling, or punctual errors, though it's two thousand words long, we would prefer it be two hundred and one with zero mistakes.
- Herd leaders are required to post at least twice (on any character) a week; if you do not, you will receive a 48 hour notice through PM and e-mail that your herd will be placed up for claim.
- Keep everyone in the roleplay involved, it's more fun that way and no one gets left out!
- Please, always post (ICly) in size one font! It helps the forum look tidy.
BREEDING
- You may not determine your foals stats unless you buy the correct items from the shop.
- As stated above, please do NOT breed graphically. We've no need for 'chambers' or any of that nonsense.
- Breeding season is year-round, however, if a foal is born in winter its survival rate is decreased severely!
- Stallions and Mares may not breed until three years of age. They may be subjects of rape under that age, but may not foal!
- After your horses have bred, please go to the Stats board to receive your foals stats. Please us the proper format.
- A mare may have two foals per game year, unless we have baby booms. If this is the case, it will be reduced to one foal.
- You may not create pregnant mares.
SEASONS & AGING
- On Swallow Isles, these horses are a new type of breed. They can live up to age twenty five.
- A horse ages every spring.
- One in game year is a month.
- Your horse's aging rate MAY be slowed down through items in the shop, you may also buy 'young again' potions from the phoenix.
- The creation board password is sabino.
- A foal does not necessarily have to reach a year in the coming spring, parents may decide when their foal has its first birthday. After its first birthday, however, the foal goes with normal spring-aging.
CHALLENGING & CLAIMING
- Juglanth may not be challenged for his rank. Remember, he is respected and adored by all of the Whedab herd.
- Like Juglanth, the immortal god Bensvelk may not be challenged for his rank.
- Mares, stallions, fillies, and colts may be claimed or stolen.
- Mares and stallions of four years may claim herds. In order to challenge for a herd, they must have at least one companion.
- Ciraus, Whedabs, and Rionibs may claim / steal one another, so long as they're put in a slave position AND so long as the water has receded. (Check announcements for said opportunities.)
- Ciraus, Whedabs, and Rionibs may be converted by the herd they're stolen by.
- Stolen horses can leave their thief after one week.
- Challenges must be replied to within a three day time period. If the allotted time is exceeded, the herd leader automatically forfeits.
- DO NOT challenge someone who's posted as away in the absent board.
- Force claiming is allowed in ANY of the lands.
- All fights must be placed in the battlegrounds. Please PM a moderator / admin to judge the fight. The time period in which the person has to reply must be a minimal of 3 days, but is set by the challenger.
