Okay, okay, the board name obviously made you expect this, so it can't be a surprise. I promise, once we get this part over with, the fun can begin!
1.) No godmoding. This means you can't control another persons characters, or the enviornment so that it's completley against you or against another character or something. We gotta keep it cool
2) Foul language should be kept to the roleplaying boards, and even then it should only be used when really necessary. You guys understand this, I'm sure.
3) No OOC (Out of Character) only posts in the roleplaying boards. Keep the chatter to the neccesary boards or messages. The roleplay boards are for... well.. roleplaying. Duh
4) You can mate as per species standard, but try not to get into anything too graphic or detailed. It's hard to be sure of the ages of our members, so lets keep respectful. Mkay? Mkay.
5) To learn more about mating and having cubs, read this thread about having a litter:

6) Each roleplay post should be around 100 words. Don't worry, this isn't too hard. If you're having difficulty, www.wordcounttool.com/ is a good word counting tool to help you keep track.
7) Just so I know you read this, when you make your first character, I want you to post the word "AsTheStarsCollide" in the "Password" section of the character form.
8) 1 season (Spring, Summer, etc.) will happen over the course of 1 month.
Birth Rates:
If one season happens in the time of one month here, and in reality one season happens over the course of 3 months, then the difference is about 1/3. We move at 1/3 the time of real life.
So, if your female had a gestation period of 60 days, you could multiply that by .33 (roughly 1/3), and get a rough estimate (a birth date within a couple days.)
--Example
Real-Life Gestation Period: 60 days.
60 x .33 = 19.8.
So, the birth date could either be 18 real days from the mating, 19 days from the mating, or 20 days from the mating.
9) I, as your admin, reserve the right to put a temporary hold on any species of big cat at any time. This decision will be based on the amount of one species in relative comparison to the others. It simply isn't realistic to have 100 Cheetahs and 100 Tigers on an island at one time.
10) Member of The Month polls will start on May 25th, and the new Member of the Month will be announced June 1st. This is how it will happen every month afterwards.
11) Every so often I will have an "Activity Check", which is merely an announcement thread in which you will have to post and say you are still active. Members who do not respond to two activity checks will have their accounts removed and assumed to be inactive.
