[glow=gold,1000,20000]THE RULES[/glow]
It is advised that you read the plot first, and the FAQs after you have read this - it may answer your questions.
OCC (Out of Character):
- You are only allowed one account! Not one for every character, one.
- No excessive swearing please.
- No abusive language - be nice
- Everyone is aloud his or her own opinion - so long you don't seriously offend anyone
- Report any abuse directly to a staff member or me.
Posting:
Theses are just things to do while posting that make everything more understandable and easier to read etc.
- Please make your posts at least 100 words long. It's not as hard as it sounds, honestly. Most people do that without thinking anyway.
- Swearing is allowed in character, but don't go over board please and also be aware that there is a list of censured words.
- Power playing and god modelling are not allowed! No buts.
Power playing is when you control another's character and god modelling is when you make your character invincible, always dodging blows etc.
- Please don't fill up IC (In Character) threads with OCC. It really bugs me!
Maturing Ages and Breeding
- Force breeding is allowed, but read the section below for details.
- If your character is force breeding, you must give the other character a chance to resist/ react, but it must still be realistic.
- If your breeding posts are going to be graphic or have mature content in it, please put [[M]] in the title.
Horses

- Breeding can only take place in spring or summer.
