This thread collects rules for the guild. Mind that some shops have specific rules, and they will be reiterated here. A lot of them will cross over and repeat one another likely as well.

Please, if you're a patron of only one shop, remember your rules there, but respect ALL rules for others. And the general guild rules.

[[ General Guild Rules ]]


01. No flaming, fighting, mudslinging, badmouthing, whining, bitching about the shops, or otherwise excessively being a pain in the a**. I don't want to see a long-a** argument between you and the eprson you hate in my guild, trash-talk about anotehr shop or other otherwise problemary unhappy issues that will only cause problems. No making others look bad, etc. It's rude and I won't tolerate such thigns. While you can disagree, you don't need to be rude and pissy about it.
02. No breaking Gaia ToS! It's linked on every single page - you have no excuse not to. No porn, cybering, etc. Oh, and no blatant illegal activities. stare
03. Respect all shops here. I will not tolerate people dissing one of my shops. At all. I put a lot fo work into them all, or otherwise keep them going. I didn't ask you to start in on them or otherwise make more issue for those that do like 'em. Don't like it? Don't bother with it and stay to your own area. I don't see this being a problem, i just wanted to n** this in the bud before it started. @_@
04. Be respectful of everyone. If someone's just ebing an a**, they'll get delt with. Don't flame them, just ignore them. Need something dealt with? Ask the respective shop mule in PM on resolving the issue. Guild = Min mod power. She can and will use it. X3~
05. Have fun! Yes, this si a rule, because that's why she's here doing things. This is a place to come and enjoy.
06. Please try to respect and use the shop tags. If I change your thread title to have them be clear, don't be upset. I'm just trying to keep order in a semi-chaotic mess and make sure others understand. Most formats are going to be:

[ShopName - ExtraTag] Ttitle Goes Here

If it's multi-shop specify which. Journal only needs to be journal but can specify shop if it's for only one, OOC should be an all shop tag or specific if it's a shop-related question. Try to use the tags and make life easy on peole who are a part fo the guild for one or more shops. xd I'm not gonna nazi-mod on you all though. I don't believe in that, but I will try to aid in keeping thigns clear.

[[ Shop Tags ]]


[E-Mice] :: A thread relating to the E-mice shop, located here.

[DH] :: A thread relating to the DemonHounds shop, located here.

[Cerexi] :: A thread relating to the Cerexi shop, located here.

Please ntoe that the three "facilities" are actually seperate entities from one another and do not directly share space aside all being somewhere in the desert-like area between barton and Aekea. There will be no cross breeding of species. Each shop is a seperate entity of one another and should be treated as such. Cerexi get items form their item shop, etc.

[[ Extra Thread Tags ]]


[OOC] - an OOC thread, so all thigns are OOC. Please refrain from any 'serious' RP in there. Person to person, preferably no pets unless specified. These may be things like the rules, ot something to talk about.

[Plot] - Means things which may affect the shop or story are here. IC thread, please use brackets for anything OOC.

[Shop] - Something shop specific, such as breeding log/details, items, etc. DO NOT use this tag -- only Mintaka/Mule threads may bear this.

[Record] - Mintaka-kept thread to track information or otehr things. Uusually locked.

[Journal] - Use for private journals. Please do NOT post in these unless asked to or otherwise given permisison by the owner. I don't want to have to be asked to delete something unwanted. Yes, I will allow all three pet types to exist in one journal. RPs may occur here and need not use the tags below.

[[PRP]] - Private Roleplay thread. Only people ASKED to post should post here. RPs here may count towards things; I'll check in them randomly.

[[ORP]] - Open Roleplay thread. Anyone is allowed to join this. Please if you make an ORP make sure it's somewhere near the shop but not IN the shop. I'd like people to hold off a bit regarding ORPs until I define the outside region better. sweatdrop <--working on things related to these!

Anything without a tag is considered OOC. Why? Because it could just be a general chatter. If it's RP, mark it as such so people know. ^^

E-mice Rules


Shop Rules

00. Unless Mintaka PMs you from that account, all E-mice related business should go through Moonchilde. Mintaka's PM box gets enough abuse, and we wouldn't want ot lose anything important.
01. Do not steal anything. Art, conept, etc. Nothing. Period. I will not tolerate art/pet theft -- you will pay dearly for that above all other wrongs. Just don't.
02. No Begging. Please, don't whine and beg. It won't get you anything except my irritation and distress.
03. No Trolling/Harassing. This extends both to me and any future staff, and to any visitors to the thread. You have a problem, take it to PM. I will not tolerate harassment of people within my thread - and harassing me is a good way to end up blacklisted.
04. No Altering the cards/art. Do not do any changes on your own. The only people allowed to are me, or Atarashii/Chibizoo. Anyone else is bioled alive if I catch it.
06. No Selling/Giving Away of Pets. Unless I say otherwise, you cannot simply just give away your pets. If you have a really special circumstance, I may allow it, but general selling/trading, no. [[Rule subject to Mintaka's own decisions.]]
07. Mintaka has final say. This means if I need to make a rule on the spot, I will. I don't think I will need to, however, I want this clause. I don't like being mean. But I want the right to do what I must, when I must, for the betterment of shop and people. If I say you're wrong, you're wrong in the context of this shop. I doubt I will need to excersize #7. I do reserve the right to bend rules for certain people as I am the eprson owning and in charge of this shop. I DO try to be fair however. I also reserve the right to edit/tweak rules as needed.

Roleplay Rules

01. No godmodding. No controlling other people/their pets without permission. This means don't come to me if you see person A controlling person B's thing... if you're neither A nor B. I only want to hear about things from the party actually being used, since some people may want/allow someone certain control of actions, and that's between them. Generally though try to make such matters clear. When in doubt, ask.

02. E-mice are not godly. Though they have quite good recovery, this does not prevent death from absolutely foolish things. Do not abuse their phsyiology; that's just unfair to me especially. Also, they do not cast insane magics; actually, they don't use magic really unless otherwise stated. They're consdered a magical race because they are neither flesh nor machine, but they do not inherently use magic. However, they're rather crafty and smart to learn nromal tricks and such, and gain skills in such things as arts and repair.

03. The IC/OOC Clause. Just because two E-mice don't get along ... doesn't mean that the owner hates you. If one mouse takes it on themselves ot be a bully on yours, that doesn't mean the owner hates you and wants to beat YOU up. Keep IC stuff IC and OOC things OOC. If you don't like someone, that's fine, but keep that out of the thread, and try not to make the same prejudices ICly as you might have OOCly. stare Mostly this clause was to remind people that IC things are NOT OOC reflections of feelings; if I were to RP one fo my characters hating someone, it doesn't mean I personally do. Let's try to remember that... and not let IC stuff become OOC dramatics.

04. Avoid the Drama. If you have rpoblems, take it up to me in Moonchilde's PM box. Don't start a three page long fight in my thread over right and wrong over pets. Or something personal. I don't midn talking about things, but we don't need to make a big dramatic show of emotions. Calm, rational. I hate drama and if people are causing it, you can expect to be on my watched list, excessive rama upsetting lots of people will earn you greylisting [or blacklisting if it gets bad enough]. Please; I get drama enough elsewhere in my life, I don't need it here. IC drama has a time and place, but let's NOT overkill on that.

05. Have Fun. Please... this is about fun. But, if you are causing a lot of not-fun for everyone else... I will have to step in. This slightly goes with the above IC drama comment; if your drama is seriously putting a lot of people off, I may have to step in. I want this fun for everyone. If you have an idea, and one that especially will affect others, please bring it up with me with a PM to Moonchilde; I'll be happy to review something you've come up with. I just want to make sure everyone's able to be happy with things.

06. Keep it Clean. Not that this should be the last thing to say, but perhaps it'll stick best here. Remember this si gaia and we DO have PG-13 rules. I don't want to see any sex at all, in any form. I shouldn't HAVE to say it, but I want to be extra sure we all understand that. Also, I don't want massive gore... not that I see it being possible but... well. As I said; PG-13. I don't mind a little darkness but I don't want people being bothered... and I don't need little kids being tormented for life. I do have friends who are just barely 13 here on Gaia, and I prefer they not get exposed to things they shouldn't be. [I realize some 13 y/o's have a maturity of an 18 y/o and vice versa -- after all, I was apparently so mature in my teens someoen refused to believe I was really a teenager online and had to argue my youthfulness to them. Still, I'd rather not someone get in trouble. Plus, well, sex shouldn't be on Gaia anyway. xp We all know how babies happen, we don't need to show.]

Rules may be modified as needed.

Cerexi Rules


General Rules

00. All shop-related PMs should be sent to Cerexi, not to Mintaka. Unless otherwise asked, please direct all PMs to the mule. Otherwise you will likely be ignored, as Mintaka's PM box is already overflowing with other things.
01. Adults must be hosted by yourself. Much as I'd love to host indefinitely, I don't wish to overtax what is. Unless you'd like to donate towards my hosting bill... ;p But pelase, host your own when they reach adult, please.
02. No stealing anything! Not only is it rude, inconsiderate, and also against most rules and sense... just don't. I've worked hard on the concept, Chibi worked hard on the lines, etc. - just don't do it. You will be caught, you will be reported.
03. No whining, begging, fighting, etc. Whining and begging for one won't endear you to me or anyone else, and won't get you a Cerexi. Fighting because you didn't get one and soemoen else did will get you reported for harassment if it persists, and likely grey or blacklisted.
04. No drama! I don't want other shop drama coming in this thread, personal dramas between people, etc. I really don't want drama about this shop either. Have issue? Take it to PMs. Don't come crying here you got banned elsewhere; I don't want all this being slogged around my thread. It makes people unhappy and uncomfortable. Have a problem with this shop? Cerexi's PM box is always open. Have at. Alternately, don't openly flame other shops/people in my thread.
05. No altering cards/pets. No adding your own items/changing info, etc. That's my job, and any altered cards will not be legal. Those found altering anotehr's card for the purpose fo stealing the pet will be reported and blacklisted.
06. No selling/giving away of your pets! If you won't be on Gaia ever again and wish to give them to someoen, contact me first. If there's a Cerexi baby up for sale, I'll deal with it. I want to know who has what, when - or there will be indications of theft and dealt with as such accordingly. Respect my wishes, please.
07. These rules are subject to change as needed, including removal, additions, and editing of existing rules. I like to call this right of the shopkeep - I own the place, I run the place, I have the right to change things as needed. Any changed will likely be noted somewhere for everyone, and should be respected.

Roleplay Rules

...See E-mice and the shop thread for them, but E-mice likely had the most detailed set of rules. xd
