Welcome to the neighborhood!

It’s nice to know that you’ll be moving into Cedar Woods, our housing development here in Colorado Springs. You’re lucky you were able to get a house here! It’s quite a new development, and they aren’t going to be expanding it so that everyone can have a nice big backyard that goes out into the woods. Why are you lucky, didn’t you notice the foothills? We’ve got the greatest view. Look now, beyond those foothills, and you can see Pikes Peak! A grand site, and we get some wild life around these parts too. Oh, you’ve got a cat. A darling thing, if I do say so myself. A lot of people here in this development have pets.

Me? I used to have a cat. What do I mean by used to? Well, everyone lets their cat out around here, but sometimes they don’t come back. I wonder where they go sometimes, or even if they’re still alive. Oh well, that’s a morbid subject. Come on, let’s get you moved in!


Ground Rules

1. FOLLOW TOS!

2. No cybering.

3. No n00b talk (l8r, gr8, etc...)

4. Respect fellow members. If you are caught insulting someone, you will be given a few warnings through private messages. If it continues, you will be immediately banned.

5. THIS GUILD IS LITERATE! So do your best when it comes to spelling and grammar.

More Specific Rules

1. Since this guild is an AU (alternate universe) that means that none of your characters can have anything to do with any of the original characters of the "Warriors" series by Erin Hunter.

2. When battling another user's cat, DO NOT KILL THEM WITHOUT PERMISSION, that means no fatally wounding, no wounding so severely that they will die later unless you have their permission. P.S. You can kill all cats controlled by you in any way you want. Just don't make it anything rated R.

3. Absolutely no, under any circumstances, there shall be no power plays or God-modding! These include phrases such as, but are not limited to, "My cat is the strongest." or "My cat is the most beautiful." and "My cat is totally the smartest one out of the entire clan." ... No, NO, N-O!!! There's no way you can possibly prove that, so don't bother. If you want others to know that your cat is strong, etc., simply put, "My cat is strong," or something along those lines. (P.S. If you feel the need to god-mode , or make a power-play while you're role-playing, I can guarantee that your character will be killed off swiftly, by a mod, without your consent. Is that fair? Of course; if you don't follow the rules pertaining to everyone else, why should we have any mercy by following the rules when dealing with you?

4. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT play as anyone else's cats. If you do happen to have permission, then simply state so in OOC. ***OOC will be covered in a later part of this post.

5. Be original. Don't copy others. If you like something about another's cat then ask if you can use it. ***This doesn't apply to e.g. If you like a pelt color, but you're going to have a different eye color and personality. I'm referring to same eye and pelt color, or exact same personality.

6. Formats will be given so you know how to post in a certain forum. Be sure to read it.

7. Post a profile, then post. Don't wait, just post.

Reasons for Being Banned

1. Failure to follow rules after repeated warnings.

2. Failure to cooperate with others. ((If you have a problem, notify a mod.))

Things You Should Be Aware Of

1. Mods have the right to edit your post should you fail to use capitols, basic punctuation, and adequate paragraph punctuation as well as spelling.

2. Minor slips will be fixed without any notification.

3. If you do not notice that we fix your errors and continue to make the same mistakes, you will be made of your errors through a private message.

4. Major errors (e.g. what are you taling bout he asked) will be brought to your attention immediately via private message.

5. If you break any rules, you will be notified via a private message.

6. Failure to follow rules after a warning, and repeated violation will result in you being banned.

7. There is no limit to how many characters you have though I would suggest not to go over ten.

8. If you have a problem notify a mod, or myself directly. DO NOT post your complaint in a forum, because we may not see it and don't expect us to. We aren't your baby sitters, and we want to have fun as well, so take some responsibility and help us help you.

9. OOC a.k.a Out of Character, is when you speak as yourself during the role-play. When speaking OOC do not color code you post, and put it in doubled parenthesis ((like so,)) and be sure to make it size nine font.

10. Most importantly, have fun.
