Rules
Every group must have rules to be stable, and ours is no exception. Our rules are not as strict as most groups, unless it's realism.
1. Know your facts about the animal you are roleplaying. We will quiz you on your animal before you join.
2. Realism is a MUST. No bright colors, and remember to roleplay your animal correctly.
3. There are no boundaries of periods; Tyrannosaurs and Stegosaurs can live together.
4. Graphic mating is allowed, however keep it within group chat (if we happen to be in a public/moderated area), and do not do it physically unless we're in our private map. This is because mating serves a huge purpose within the story.
5. Cussing is allowed, even major swears like the F-word. However, if we're in a public/moderated area, do not swear.
6. We may talk about some content others find offensive; please notify us of any triggers you have before joining.
7. Do not abuse the mods/admins. Doing so will result in a warning, then a temporary ban, then a kick from the group.
8. Do not cause OOC drama. Drama IC is fine, but do not start flame wars within group chat.
9. Do NOT ABUSE MOD/ADMIN PRIVALIGES. If you are given the recruiting account, you are expected to only use it for recruiting players. Do not create characters that are not premade, and DO NOT GET IT BANNED. Doing so will result in the entire group being disbanded, with only a select few allowed in; the group will be within my and only my hands, which means that the group will rarely be active.
10. Please remain active, and notify us of a schedule change. We are not big about inactivity, since I'm often inactive myself. This does not mean "go and create a character, get in the group, and go absent for a month without reason".
11. Godmodding is a huge no. Anyone seen godmodding will be temporarily banned, and if they do it again, they will be kicked.
12. If we are in a public/moderated map, the main Feral Heart rules apply in local. No exceptions.
13. Roleplay samples are REQUIRED, along with an image of your character.
14. If you have a preset, please color your character to look like the preset. Not everyone's computer cannot download presets, and if you show up with a newbie-colored character with the excuse of "ET A PRUSAT, SUNY", you will be warned, and you will not be accepted.
15. Loner, Rogue, and Outcast are NOT punishment ranks, meaning that you are not one if you break the rules.
16. Fighting within groups is allowed, but you will become an Outcast after enough IC disagreement. Groups regularly spar, and will fight during mating seasons.
17. DO NOT CLAIM TERRITORY WITHOUT PERMISSION. Territory means a large area of land, not just a den. Den claiming is fine, but you are limited to one den and one den only. Camps are avaliable for sub-groups upon request.
18. DO NOT CLAIM THE MAP AND GROUP AS YOUR IDEA. THIS WILL RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE KICK. I put hard work into the maps, and if anyone claims it, they will be kicked.
19. Your animals are SMALL. Large dinosaurs (such as tyrannosaurs, carnotauruses, stegosaurs, etc.) are roughly as tall as people or horses. That means no giant (life sized) sauropods!
20. If you want your animal to be above the allowed size, ask a mod. You are allowed a larger animal (or large prey animal) without having permission if they are cavalry to humans.
21. Please stick to predatory or semi-predatory animals, as prey animals (triceratops, stegosaurs, Irish deer/elk, etc.) will be hunted! However, there is an exception to this, as you are allowed a prey animal with some meat in their diet.
19. Have fun, and follow the rules!
If you have read through the rules, and understand them and the concequences that follow if you disobey them, you can have our map download password. It is "NotExtinct" without the quotes!
