Application Rules
Respect all members: Treat others in the way you would like to be treated, do not insult others or their art. Respect everyone in all situations, regardless of age, sexuality, group rank, religion, or beliefs. If you have a problem with a member, try talkingt it through with them first. Only if this does not resolve, talk to a staff member and they will try to talk to that member!
All art must be yours: We do not accept dashed or pre-made art, with the exception of commissions. Do not lie to us about the art that was drawn/copied or was used without credit/permission from the original artist.
Stay Active: Please do not join our group if you will not join the stories. This only occupies the ranks of the groups. We understand that members have personal lives, and that is why there's the Hiatus for those who can not keep online, avoiding them from being excluded from the group.
There are no very high expectations of activity, you do not have to dedicate all your free time to this group. However, we hope you have RP or drawings at least once a month to meet our expectations.
Posting comments in the Home Page: If you have any questions or just want to notify the group about a problem or idea you had, please send a note to the group instead of commenting in the home page. Sending a note to the group will be the best way to get your answer faster and get the things clear. Our roleplays do not occur at the home page, but at our Discord. If you want to leave the group, instead of announcing it at the home page, where it will hardly be noticed by our staff, please send a note to the group so that we can immediately deal with the subject of your character's destiny.
Complaint Notice: Anyone can send a complaint, be it members, a staff member, or an artist reporting a theft of their potential art. Complaints about members are the only private notes that should be sent to the group founder.
When filing a complaint, please complete the following:
Name:
Subject matter:
Date of occurrence:
Description of occurrence:
Literacy: It is an important factor in creating any kind of communication. Use correct grammar and punctuation, especially when role-playing with others. Try your best to keep the minimum mistakes as well as write in the third person point of view for easier reading.
Colorful Cats: Make your cats with realistic colours! No yellow/pink/green/neon colour for the cats. The eyes must be completely natural, please keep your cat inside the logic. If you try to send a colorful cat with mutations, we will reject it immediately.
Names: The names of cats can be composed as WhiteClaw and FireHeart. But we do not accept offensive names! If you name your cat with any offensive name, we will be forced to ask you to change their name.
Make sure you also check the Master Name List to make sure you are not naming your character with the same name of someone in the group. Big minds think alike, and this could cause problems.
A review of an administrator is not an attack: Do not act like it is one. Some of us will be more demanding than others about the amount of detail needed in an application. We are not being evil, so please do not feel like we are when we criticize your character. When an administrator review your character, they are searching how much effort you put into it. This is a literate group, especially if we find several wrong things or feel like you are simply fulfilling the requirements just to enter. If you lose your temperament with an administrator, like answer him with a rude/harrasament coment, you will be automatically refused forever to enter in the group. We do not accept this behavior.
Do not force your character over someone: There is always a time when someone decides that their character is the soul mate of another and makes them lovers, or some member of the family. Of course, both can plot the relationship of their characters together, but do not force your cat on another. You can not have your characters take on an official compromission until they are both warriors. Please be aware that in the world of cats, they usually do not become official companions until they have kits.
Lineart: Bases are not allowed, ask a friend to draw for you. You MUST give all credits to them on the top of your written application. This group accepts any level of artistic skills. We also accept the traditional art, as long as it is placed on the reference plan of the group.
Using another person's art: We will NOT tolerate art theft, unauthorized use, and use of another artist's art without his permission. This will result in an immediate expulsion from the group and all your characters will be killed.
Originality: Steal someone's character (even if they are not in this group) or their art will banish you permanently. Adopts you bought from others are accepted (as long as you give credits to the original artist in the description and say you are the one who adopted and paid for it).
Incomplete Applications: Do not send an application/reference application that is missing the appropriate description. Fill it out before sending it to the group. If you need help, send a note to the group providing a link named W.I.P. so we will not bother to see if it is complete.
Minimum of two lines for each response: Trust me, it's no fun roleplaying with someone who only writes short answers. I understand that people can get tired and lazy, but if you really do not feel good, do not roleplay. If you still want to have fun, just make sure you write at least two lines, one paragraph is preferable but two lines are the minimum.
Initiative: Do not join the group and wait for members to gather around your character begging for roleplaying with you. ASK others! Do not expect them to come to you, otherwise you will be left behind. If you want to roleplay with someone, go to one of the character references and just ask. Do not comment in our profile asking if anyone is interested in roleplaying.
No Gods: "God" is when you have a character who is practically "untouchable or the best of all". All the opponent's attacks are diverted, while all the God's attacks seem to cause serious injuries to the opponent, or your cat is the best hunter, who manages to catch all preys without hard work. This also applies to a character's personality traits. No one can be the best at everything, they are not perfect, they have flaws and these need to be applied.
