.:Marine Clans: Official Rules:.
General & RPing Rules
-No spamming (double posting) or replying to a rp thread saying "Hi I'm new". Spamming is annoying, don't do it or you will get yelled at. If you constantly spam you will be banned. The only place I am allowing you to double post is in your character log books but that's the ONLY place.
-Be nice to other members and no swearing.
-You must use IC when you are posting In Character and OOC if you are posting in out of character (on RP boards).
-In order to join you must have read at least the first Warriors book or some Warriors book in the series to know how the Clans function.
-No flamming, god-modeling or powerplaying. Flamming is when you fight in OOC. God-modeling is being totally invincible while powerplaying is posting as someone else's character.
-Please use good grammar and spelling in your posts. The Spell Check button is there for a reason....
-Chat speak is not allowed. You cannot replace you with u or two, to or too with 2. You need to put the full words.
-You cannot post boring posts like: "Sandstorm sighed." Put some detail into it.
-In order to join, you must know how to do things on proboards.
~All rp posts should be atleast 4 sentences.
-If you continue to break these rules, you will get a warning. Four warnings will result in banning.
Character Bio Rules
-You must follow the bio form exactly! If you don’t, your bio will be locked and ignored.
-Do not type warrior, etc. names like; JayFur. That's not how warrior names are typed. Instead, type; Jayfur.
-If you want your cat to be pregnant, pm an admin for permission and how many kits. There has to be a father.
-If you want to kill another cat get the person's permission first. For example, your character Tigerstripe wants to kill little Pinekit. You need to get the member who rps as Pinekit's permission to kill Pinekit before you can post as your character killing the other cat.
-You can have up to seven characters and two high positions. The high positions can not be in the same Clan. Please keep a Character log of all your characters.
-If you don't want a character anymore, post in the adoption center board with the character's bio.
-You cannot make a loner that claims land for it's own Clan. If you want your character to start a group of loners and rouges, pm an admin.
-You cannot rp as a character until its bio has been accepted.
-You cannot bug an admin, Clan leader or other staff member if your character can be a part of a future/current plot. If the plot needs plot cats, a mass pm will be sent out.
-In an apprentice or kit bio you cannot put a warrior name for them. They’ll get a warrior name from the leader when they’re made one. If you would like to choose your warrior name, PM the leader of your Clan and ask them very nicely.
-A queen is pregnant for 3 weeks and then gives birth. Please do not post a detailed birth.
-In order for an apprentice to become a warrior, the member who plays the mentor must rp out at least two training sessions.
Character Ageing Rules
-Kits become apprentices after three weeks (real time) of being born.
-Apprentices become warriors after four weeks (real time) of becoming an apprentice.
-Queens are pregnant for three weeks (real time) before giving birth.
Clan Rules
-Must follow the warrior code (this can be broken but consequences for your character will be decided by the Clan leader).
-If you can't make a gathering and you are a leader, deputy or medicine cat, pm an admin so one of us knows and please find someone to play your character for the Gathering.
-You can battle for more territory. You should get permission from the Clan's leader and admin.
-Clan leaders can make kits apprentices and apprentices warriors early. You don't need anyone's permission for that.
-Kits take the surname kit, apprentices take the surname paw and leaders take the surname star. If the leader doesn't follow StarClan then they take the surname of the ancestor Clan they follow. For example, Darkheart of CoralClan would be Darkcoral.
-Warriors get a new surname but keep the first part of their name. For example, Sootpaw was becoming a warrior. The leader gave him the warrior name, Soottail. Elders, medicine cats, deputies and queens keep their warrior names.
-Warriors, Apprentices and the rest of the ranks besides kit can leave camp whenever but should tell another cat in the Clan (you don't have to do this)
-During Gatherings, everyone must attend. Well everyone that is invited. Each Clan leader must announce who they are taking to the gathering. I will mass pm when a gathering comes up.
-The leader of the Clan is in charge of updating their Clan’s stats and making kits apprentices and apprentices warriors. There is a Clan stats thread. PM me or a mod (deputy) so they can update the thread.
Inactive Rules
-There will be an activity check every two months during the school year and every month over the summer. If you post on the activity check but no other time, your character will be put up for adoption.
-If you have a high position character and you go inactive, your character will be "dead" and a new cat will take its place.
-No spamming (double posting) or replying to a rp thread saying "Hi I'm new". Spamming is annoying, don't do it or you will get yelled at. If you constantly spam you will be banned. The only place I am allowing you to double post is in your character log books but that's the ONLY place.
