General Rules
1.) Read the rules and the entire front page. It makes life a lot easier for everyone.
2.) Be nice, we'd like the thread to have a happy, healthy environment. It goes without saying that flaming, harrassing, and/or making a nuisance of yourself is a huge no no.
3.) No stealing of art. Hikari works very, VERY hard for this shop. If you break this rule you will automaticly be blacklisted, banned from the shop and then reported to a mod.
4.) Respect the owners, this is our thread and our rules. And no, we don't have to justify everything we do to you. We try to be nice people and honestly love constructive feedback, but please don't abuse our kindess.
5.) No mega quotes, meaning more than three (3) large quotes in one post. Exceptions to this rule would be if you were Roleplaying with more than three people are once.
6.) These are RP Intensive pets, so if you just want something to sit in your sig and look pretty then these are not the pets for you. In the future we may have an autobuy price for those who want a Passenger but not the rp requirements, but right now we're really lookingn for people who want to play out the Passenger's lives.
7.) Realize real life takes precedence over Gaia. We understand that this applies to everyone and we won't jump on you and take away your passenger if you go on hiatus. Please realize that we, the owners, also have our real life issues to deal with and cannot be online 24/7.
8.) Do not PM asking when the next flatsale/contest/auction/AB slot opening will be.
9.) Gaia's TOS applies everywhere, here included.
10.) Not so much as a rule as it is a statement but; We love our lurkers! You guys are what makes the shop worth while and eventually there may be events and such for lurkers only, so never be afraid to post and say hello <3
11.) All OOC/informal/general chat, whether or not there's RP going on or not, should be in brackets.
12.) Rules, like most other things, are subject to change and more will be added as necessary.
RP Rules
1.) No God-Moding or Godly characters. While your Passenger may have special abilities and powers if you so choose, please bear in mind that they will still have limits and imperfections.
2.) Formal/narrative roleplay only, either 1st or 3rd person perspective is acceptable.
3.) Informal/general chatter must be done in brackets when RP is going on.
4.) Please don't kill Peregrin u.u
5.) As a Guardian, you are required to post at least once a month in your tome. If you have to go on a hiatus, please, please either post or PM us saying so. If you're going to be gone for a long time, assign someone to take care of your Passenger in the meantime.
6.) You don't need a Passenger to RP in the shop, just RP formally as yourself and you'll be fine <3
7.) Non-IUJ pets are welcome in the HQ, but please limit yourself to at most two (2) non-IUJ pets.
8.) Whether in IC or OOC, please do not ignore newcomers. We were all new once, and while we don't expect you guys to just shower them with love and affection, please don't ignore them altogether as well.
Auction/Raffle Rules will be in the auction/raffle threads.
