last edit;; 2011 Jun 21 by Moony. Rules 401-405.
201. Keep the rating PG-13. I'm not into beastiality. Period. And I'm pretty sure ProBoards Staff doesn't want it popping up anywhere.
202. No god-modding. Really, it gets old. Don't do it. You wouldn't be able to dodge every time I tried to hit you any more than I would be able to...and I'm a black belt.
203. No power-playing. Really, it gets old. Don't do it. You're the writer for your character. I'm the writer for mine. That's the way it's going to stay.
204. No bunny-ing. It's pretty crappy of you to make someone else's character look little in and stupid in your post. It's one thing to say that a small mare appears afraid when she does. However, it's something completely different to make a stallion look like a flower when he's not even doing anything.
205. 150 word minimum. I would prefer to raise this about a hundred words, but I understand that not everyone can do that. I allow shorter posts for quality. Sometimes a lot of words makes a crappy post.
206. Keep a posting order. Don't skip anyone unless they say it's ok. It tends to piss people off.
207. Literacy is a good thing. Spell check is your friend. Grammar is your friend. Get aquainted.
301. Breeding can take place anywhere. We do not have a specific board for it. Do not go into detail. I don't want to read that.
302. Breeding can take place anytime. Preferably, only breed between late winter and early summer. This is the usual breeding period for horses anyway. Mares can go into season early or late, but it is rare. Pass it by a staff member before you decide to give your mare a foal in the middle of autumn.
303. Force breeding is allowed. It happens. A particularly assertive stallion can force a mare to breed. That doesn't mean the mare can't fight back.
304. Mares must carry foals for approximately 3 and a half seasons. 1 in game season is going to last 28 real life days. So, if you want your mare to foal now, make sure it says in her bio that she is pregnant.
305. Foal stats will be chosen by staff. You can buy certain stats in the shop. In reality, twin foals occur once in every 10,000 births. However, if you want them, a staff member will roll a set of two dice. If a double is rolled, then twins will be granted.
401. Any adult horse can challenge. This includes mares. However, a mare will very rarely beat a lead stallion for a herd.
402. Challenge with a thread. In other words, you have to start a thread where the wannabe usurper clearly makes his or her challenge. After doing so, pm a staff member with the link to the post.
403. The challenged has one week to respond. If the challenged does not respond, it will be assumed the member is innactive and the challenger wins by default.
404. Anything can be won in a challenge. This means that mares, stallions, foals, lands, or entire herds can be challenged for and won.
405. If there is not a predetermined winner, staff will decide the outcome of challenges. If the challenge and fight aren't thought out beforehand, the staff, as a group, will decide who wins. God-modding, power-playing, etc. will disqualify you.[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]

001. Use your manners. Don't be an asshole...to anyone...for any reason. This is a game. We're all here for the same reason.
002. Speak English. So no fricking chat-speak. Things like "lol", "rofl", "brb", etc. are fine. However, if u tak 2 me liek dis, I will gouge your eyes out with a spork.
003. Keep your privates to yourself. All of your privates. No one here wants to see a naked picture of a 12 year old...or your great aunt on your father's side twice removed who weighs 6 hundred pounds. If it's personal...like your real name, it doesn't need to be shared. Got it?
004. Signatures no taller than 300 pixels and no wider than 500. That is final. This includes any words you add to the bottom or the top and all the images you use. Staff will delete images that are too big.R E G I S T R A T I O N
101. 1 account per member. I like acurate member counts, and a horse rp doesn't call for a different account for every character.
102. Account name can not be the name of any character. This is not negotiable. I don't know why I hate it so much, but I do. You can not make your name the same as one of the character's names.
103. Use the correct form. This isn't difficult. You can mess with it and whatever. As long as all the information is there in the end, it's good enough.
104. Loners do not have to be accepted before you can thread. If you are making a horse in response to a wanted ad or specifically for a herd, he or she must be accepted.
105. No mary-sues. No one's perfect, and no one is completely evil. Don't flatter yourself so much. It's not good for your mental health. These horses aren't the spawn of the devil, they're basically people...agressive people...in a horse's body.I N C H A R A C T E R
