General Rules:
oo1. Read everything on the front page of the shop and in the stickies/announcements before posting and roleplaying. We much appreciate it!
oo2. Do not steal the art, concepts, graphics, etc. You will be caught and reported if you do.
oo3. Respect your fellow Gaians and keep nasty comments to yourself.
oo4. Follow the ToS. People who break it will be banned from the shop and reported.
oo5. Unless otherwise stated, do not PM anyone but the mule account of this shop.
oo6. Be active. This shop does require activity for your pet to grow.
oo7. OOC in the OOC area, roleplay in the roleplay area. Unless specifically stated, do not do OOC in the roleplays.
oo8. When there's a notice saying, "NPC Plot event" please don't make a roleplay post of your own until we change it to "RP Plot Event" and post a "NPC Plot Over!" message or something. ^^;
Roleplay Rules:
First, and foremost, allow me to explain what sort of roleplay we permit here by giving two examples. We are a literate and intensive roleplay shop, so please remember that.
An example of an unacceptable roleplay post here is this, *sits down by a tree*.
An acceptable roleplay post, would be similar to this, "Wandering into the forest, Loki glances around looking for a nice place to sit. Finding a tall oak tree, with very little brush and acorns on the ground next to it, she takes her sword's belt off and lies it against the tree. Smiling softly to herself, she takes a deep breath of the wonderful scents of the forest before settling into a nook at the base of the tree, happily watching the denizens of the forest as they return to normal life."
Also, we follow the Daisy Code here, please be sure to check that out before you do too much roleplaying here.
The basic roleplay rules; however, are:
oo1. Do not godmod. Your player and hacker are not invincible.
oo2. Do not powerplay. Occasionally if you take too long to respond an NPC or manager might step in and roleplay moving you out of the current situation, but other than that, you must talk to the person you would be powerplaying before doing so. (Every time you powerplay them!) The RP mod online must also be notified of this permission prior to the powerplay.
oo3. Use appropriate grammar and spelling. As we are a literate roleplay, we do expect you to know how to use punctuation and spell check.
oo4. Please make use of [ORP] and [PRP] in your thread titles. ORP means "Open Roleplay" and PRP means "Private Roleplay". If it says PRP in the title do NOT post unless invited to it.
oo5. We reserve the right to add more as we deem to be expedient for the roleplay. But most importantly, please remember to have fun!
oo6. Follow a post order. Sionce might take away your RP points if you don't! o.o
Post order example:
Rown makes an RP post.
Loki makes an RP post in response.
Kanove responds to both people.
oo7. Keep OOC in the guild to a minimum and in (()) or [] when in a roleplay. OOC is to be kept in the OOC forum ONLY.
Loki must wait for Rown to respond before making her own response.
Rules for Sales:
oo1. Most sales will be speed or die based. The mule account will make a post with the rules of the sale and all sale previews at the start of the sale.
oo2. Do not complain or whine if you lost. There'll always be another sale or customs to go for.
Rules for Pet Trades:
oo1. To employees - remember that Loki must be notified before you agree to ANY pet trades. As she is the one doing all the coloring, she has the final right to veto any and all pet trades. (A good way to get her to be okay with it, is if she's offered a pet or compensation, too.)
oo2. Please talk to the employee you want to make the offer to, to see if they like that pet first. If they agree, they will notify Loki. Loki will then make her decision and notify both parties if she consents.
Rules for Customs:
oo1. As of now, Loki is only doing customs for colors, patterns, and markings. She's scared of ruining tooaya's lines or templates if she does cosplays or line edits, but will make an attempt if you bribe high enough.
oo2. Only ask for a custom or semi-custom if the slots are open. All requests when slots are closed will be ignored.
oo3. You can try to bribe Loki whenever you want, but she has every right to refuse.
Loki has every right to add, change, or remove rules from this listing at any time. Though she will notify you when she does, it is up to you to be up to date on the rules at all times. You will be held responsible if you break one, so please read them thoroughly and ask questions if you're not sure of what one means!
