Yay, we all love reading rules, don't we? Well, it's good to read them, because if you do something against the rules, and say "Oh, crap! I forgot to read the rules!" or "There are rules?" the admins can kill you for not reading the rules. Or we can kill you for deliberately breaking the rules. And no "Oh dear, I forgot the rules!" kind of crap. We (admins) don't care, don't wanna hear it. You forget the rules? READ THEM AGAIN! There is nothing preventing us from e-whacking you. Now, if you break a rule, you get a 25% warning. That bar fills up, you will be deleted. We believe in second chances, we just are rather strict about that stuff. I guess this little paragraph of mine is to sum up one thing. Read the rules, and follow them. Simple as pie. Now follow the orders of the administrators. We have to follow them too, if it makes you feel any better. And there aren't a ridiculous amount of rules, but not, like, three. And they're decent rules, you gotta admit. So here's the lists!
1. No fighting with other members. If you have a problem, take it to the admins, and we'll sort it out.
2. Respect is pretty much the #1 rule here at Forest of Doom, so respect the admins and your fellow members. Even guests.
3. Have fun here! That's why Phoenix created the site.... I think.
4. If you don't know how to spell a word, look it up in an online dictionary or something.
1. There are no super-cats. When you are role-playing a battle, you can't have your cat almost kill the opponents, and happily trot back to camp without a scratch.
2. No, your cat can't kill another active cat during a battle without their permission, so forget it, Ravenclan cats and all death-obsessed kitties.
3. Please no *beginning of post* "I'm fine." said the orange tom. *end of post.* During the role-plays. We understand that people do have writer's block occasionally, but please no one-liners. Four or five sentences at the least.
1. No impossibly perfect cats. They have to have something wrong with them. Besides, isn't it more fun making messed-up cats? Or is that just me?
2. Okay, I know she~cats are cool, but you need to have at least one tom per four cats. They have good points too!
3. You are allowed two high-ranking cats. Only two. And they can't both be leaders. If you make more than two high-ranking cats, you will be asked to let all but two go, then killed by the admins.
1. Please no violent swearing. The only "bad" words we will allow are 'hell' and possibly 'dammit', but you should try hard not to use them. And we don't care if you're eighteen or so, there are people who are 13 on this site, and some people are uncomfortable with the whole swearing thing.
2. Be appropriate. Again, some people aren't comfortable with stuff you may be comfortable with.
3. Respect the admins. We can ban, delete, or warn you. And no, we can't actually kill you. I'm just saying that. We'll be mad, sure, but we won't actually find your house and kill you.
1. Out of character in the c-box. We can create another one for RPg if we need to.
2. Use your name as only your username. No Obama: as fun as that may be. So no pretending to be someone else, like you can't all be me, although I know you know you want to.
1. Please don't make signatures and other graphics bigger that 500 pixels wide. You can check the dimensions if it's a Google Images picture, but if it's your own, please please please double check. We don't want anything stretching the writing space, unless you have linked your picture and it pops open in a different tab or window.
2. Please double check bios or others to make sure that you haven't stolen their cat. If you really like the picture you found, and someone else has taken it, PM and ask if your cats can be look-alikes, or relatives.
3. Don't steal other peoples' pictures, signatures, etc. It's not nice.
