*{ basic rules

NOspamming
NOflaming
NOcursing
NOdisrespect
NOpowerplaying

001. being rude to staff or members will not be tolerated and will result in a warning, and eventually a ban.

002. use common courtesy. a please and a thank-you are always greatly appreciated.

003. do not use "chatspeak"* when you are in character, or out of character. It is irritating and many people don't fully understand it. (*how r u?, *Ttyl, *r u busy?)

004. No inappropriate material!! If you are unsure of whether or not something in inappropriate, simply do not post it. In fact, do not post anything that isn't related to the site. There are other groups for that.

005. Please use some sort of OOC (out of character). ( ), (( )), ooc:, OOC: are all accepted. Members just need to know when you aren't in character. If you start a new disscussion just talking about something, there should be no rps in that disscussion, and you do not have to use OOC.

006. Be realistic. No lime green pelts, or totally different markings. Try to keep it natural as possible though it is ok to make them unique.

007. Please post your character before you begin roleplaying them. Once you have posted your character you do need to wait for approval to begin rping

008. No impersonating anyone on this site! It will result in an immediate ban.

009. Posts can be ANY length. However, for the benefit of other RPers, please try to make them at least four sentences long!

010. Soo please don't misuse words, or have too many spelling errors. I know we all make them, but please try and keep it to a minimum.

011. High Ranks are first come first serve until all are filled. After they are filled, than it will be audition and leaders choice
!.

012. Please don't harrass other members, or beg to be staff. The answer wont always be know, but we prefer to choice dedicated, patient members

013. At least Three training sessions are encouraged, more than that is also good.

014. Apprentices must learn. At the beginning of their training it is impossible for them to be able to defeat their mentor. They can usually equal their master after 5 training sessions, no less!

015.

*{ mating and battle rules

NOEXTREMEgore
DONTBEgraphic

015. Keep everything appropriate. Romance between cats is perfectly acceptable (Licking on cheek, saying 'I love you' etc.) , but, if you are unsure if something is or isn't appropriate, do not post it.

016. Do NOT be graphic, and disgusting. Simply have the female become pregnant, and have kits. DON'T DESCRIBE IT! IT IS CONSIDERED PORNOGRAPHIC LITERATURE, AND WILL BE DELETED IMMEDIATELY!! (You will also be banned from the site. No questions asked) If you are not sure if it's appropriate don't post it (As we have now written 3 times!!!)

017. Do not start a battle without a manager's permission. We will start the battle/war/problem and you may add twists (if they're not major and if they tie into the prophecy)

018. You can not be the best in the battle and chase every enemy away. Everyone must get some injury, and some people can let their cats be killed if thats what they feel like doing.

019. Do not kill any cat without permission. This ties in with power-playing/ god-playing. Its is mean and unfair and unless you are forgiven by the cats owner, you will be suspended from the site for a while.

020. NO MAJOR GORE! (Describing blood splatter, and guts popping out. It's just gross, so don't do type that kind of stuff)
Also, If you make a cat you must Roleplay it regularly. If it isn't roleplayed often enough it will be put up for adoption.
