1.Swearing.
I will allow some amounts of swearing! Stuff like "Hell" and "Damn" are okay IF USED IN MODERATE AMOUNTS. You don't need to swear every other sentence. I'd appreciate it if you didn't use the more 'offending' words such as the f word though.
If I see too much swearing, or get too many complaints, I WILL ban it completely. So please use your freedom wisely.
2.No powers!
I do not want powers on this website. Powers tend to mess up the role-play, and if one person has powers everyone has to have powers. And then suddenly we're all super-cats.
Powers include: Healing powers (apart from natural herbs and TIME.), flying, wings and or other mutations, having lasers fire out of your eyes- anything that's UNNATURAL.
3.No power-playing!
If it wasn't obvious that "no powers" meant "no power-playing" this should keep things in check. Power-playing is more or less where your cat is perfect in every way. Cats get hurt in battle and that's that. You cannot dodge every attack, or be a super-strong cat who can just throw others around like they're ragdolls. Keep it realistic! Take as much damage as you deal to your enemy!
4.No reincarnations!
Cats simply do not come back to life UNLESS they are a leader and were given nine lives. Often when people allow people to have a few reincarnations, everyone forgets who used them up and who didn't and suddenly no new cats are in the clan because no one ever dies and stays dead. So I'm simply saying NO REINCARNATIONS.
5.No sexual language!
I don't care if your cats have mates and a family, that's all peachy. But no one wants to read the act of cats mating. We don't need any other details other than medicine cats helping the kits be born.
Also, PLEASE keep your kits in the nursery along with the queens! When cats are about to have kittens they find a place to stay and keep them there. In the books the kits stay in the nursery until they're old enough to be apprentices, or leave with their MOTHERS. No run away kits!
6.Actually do some work.
Try to actually BE a cat. Your cats aren't going to age up from a kit to an apprentice in a day or two. And if you're an apprentice, you HAVE to have at least a few days of 'training' under your belt before you become a warrior. This may have some exceptions to it depending on how active the members are, or just what members are free to take on apprentices.
7.Put effort into your posts.
We do not need loads of chatspeak in your posts. Try to keep it to a limit when in character. You don't need to have perfect grammar or sentence structure while role-playing, but a little bit of effort to make your post would be fantastic.
That said, I'm not too picky about which way you decide to rp. I don't care if its first person, second person, third person, or even using ** to show action. Whatever works best for you.
Thank you! ~Redstar, and the staff team.
