Rules of the Dragons Keep

First and foremost, all posts, topics, and general behavior must follow all the general rules as stipulated by Gaia's Terms of Service.

Spam:
This guild was made in order to get away from spammers. Any posts that are seen as spam will be deleted and the user will get a warning.

For more information about what is considered spam please see the second post.

Bumping:
This is a small guild where there will not be very many topics. As such, bumping will not be allowed unless the topic falls off the first page. Bumping includes not only posts saying BUMP, but also posts that serve no other purpose to bring up the thread (such as emoticons, and random words that contain no meaning to the subject at hand).

Keep on Topic:
Please keep all posts related and on the topic of the thread. If you wish to discuss something that is not within that topic, please feel free to make a new topic.

Abuse and Flaming:
This is a guild meant to be enjoyed by all and for members to have a good time. This guild has a zero tolerance for any abuse and flaming.

Multiple or Alt Accounts:
Multiple or alt accounts are against the ToS for breedable groups, such as the Dragon Cave. As our guild also observes the ToS of the breedable groups, any member found in violation of the rules will be removed from the guild.

This is from the Dragon Cave ToS -
Multiple Accounts
By signing up, you agree that you will only create one (1) account. You also agree that you will not falsify information when creating accounts for any reason.

NOTE: Any thread that has been inactive for a while (3-4 weeks) will be deleted from the guild... EXCEPT the helpful stickies.

All rule violations should be reported to any of the crew of this guild. We will take care of it as quickly as possible.

Permission to aid your dragons - 6-12-09

There is a new change in the Dragon Cave which affects everyone's scroll and dragons in the Dragons Keep guild.

When a member joins the Keep and has your scroll and dragons placed in the Incubator there, you are giving your implied consent for us to watch over and care for your dragons (from eggs to adults). If your eggs and/or hatchlings dropped below the 4 day counter, they are placed in the Infirmary group and walked around to get them the crucial views/clicks to save them.

However, when we started going through the Incubator today, we found a new statement on many members' eggs/hatchlings ... (see example below)

Because we abide by the Dragon Cave TOS, we need everyone to change your account settings to also grant us permission to help your dragons. Until this done in your account, your scroll will be put on a temporary Inactive status. This means your eggs and hatchlings have been removed from the Incubator. They will be no longer collecting any clicks/views there and we cannot place them in the Infirmary group if they drop below the 4 day counter.

In order for us to keep helping your dragons, you need to change your aid status in your account settings. If you're not sure what to do, go to your Dragon Cave scroll and click account settings. That will bring up your settings window and you need to do the following ... (see example below)

Again, once you've changed and confirmed your account setting to "accepting aid", contact one of the Keep mods (myself and pd2care are on at least once a day, if not more on some days). Your scroll and dragons will be returned to the Incubator and we can continue to help them.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to PM me.

Thanks! ~ Willa biggrin

Posting your Dragon Cave eggs and hatchlings in the Keep - 6-29-09

As you may (or may not) know, the Incubator in The Dragons Keep guild has been steadily growing and growing since the guild opened. As of today, we have over 70 active scrolls in the Incubator. And last month, we hatched over 1100 adult dragons!

With this increased volume of scrolls and dragons, it's taking quite a while ... even with the fastest computer ... to edit/update the scrolls in the Incubator and to put together the Infirmary group each day. It takes me about two hours to do all this on my fast computer and, on my dino computer ... yikes!

What really slows the works is updating the scrolls in the Incubator and Inactive group. When the guild was smaller, this was not an issue. Now, that we've gotten so big, this added hour per day has become a time burden on all the mods. So, help us to help you!

Starting on Friday, July 3, all members will be required to post any new eggs/hatchlings in the Incubator thread. If you are already doing this, thank you!!! These new eggs/hatchlings will then be posted on the member's scroll. Also if any eggs/hatchlings have been abandoned or given away, members will be asked to post that info as well. Members can continue to update any family or friend member's eggs as long as the permission statement is on that person's scroll.

If a member fails to contact us, the guild will not be held responsible for any egg/hatchling deaths. After that member's eggs/hatchlings have grown to adulthood and no new eggs/hatchlings have been posted in the thread, their scroll will be placed in the Inactive Scrolls.

Inactive Scrolls will no longer be checked. When an inactive member posts new eggs/hatchlings on the Incubator thread, the scroll will be moved back into the Incubator.

We will continue to go through the Incubator daily, checking the times on the eggs and hatchlings there. Any eggs and hatchlings under 3 days and 23 hours will be placed in the Infirmary group for walking.

Thank you for your help and support of the Keep!
