Revealing information about yourself over the Internet is a serious risk. To protect yourself, never reveal your age or residence to any members you don't know personally (in real life, face to face). If you do wish to talk with someone regarding your personal life, do so discreetly (preferrably by Private Messaging). And if you suspect someone of being shady, contact staff immediately.
How much does it cost to join this forum?
Nothing. Joining a Proboards forum is absolutely free.
How big can my signature picture be?
600 pixels wide, 300 pixels tall

Do I have to be invited or can I just join the forum?
No need to be invited, just join.
When can I start RP'ing?
As soon as possible.
What sort of RPing style is used here?
Generally we write multi-paragraph posts when RPing, full of detail and description. Smilies in RP are not allowed, you write out your character's expressions, don't use emoticons.
I'm not a very good RP'er, but can I still RP?
Yes, there are plenty of people here at the same level as yourself. You learn as you write along.
How large and how powerful can I make my character?
Realistic as possible, we don't want all-powerful animals on our hands. Large characters are allowed only to a certain extent.
What sort of species am I allowed to RP here?
Check the species in Resources for that. If you want to role-play some other animal please notify the staff and we may accept or reject it.
Where do I put my character's information?
Post a thread up in Characters and put it there.
Can I RP a human?
If you want, but its not recommended since the animals may attack you on sight.
What sort of dog breeds are allowed here?
Any breed as long as its reasonable for the areas.
Can my character have funky colors?
Yes! And I want them to be wild and crazy! A colour chart for personalities relating to different colours is posted up in Resources.
I can't draw my character!
You don't have to, its not required to role-play.
But I'd still like a nice picture.
Sometimes our members are kind enough to offer free art requests. Ask them nicely and they may make a picture for you. However, they can't create characters for you. That is your responsibility.
But there's some nice pictures in "Character Trading" I could use, can't I just take those?
No, you aren't allowed.
I'm gonna take it anyway.
If you use another artist's/ RP'er's character, you must have their permission to use it. If you don't have permission, even if you give due credit, you will be banned. If you claim you made it and we find out you didn't, you will be banned. If you take an image and alter it without permission, you will be banned. If you copy a design and we find out, you will be banned.
How can I make get a nice picture of my character without making a request of another artist?
Go to Templates in Characters. Some nice people here have made free line-art for other to color in and alter however you please. You must still follow each artist's restrictions for using their templates.
What Time/Place does this forum exist within?
Somewhere around the present time in North America.
Do I have to join a pack? Can I make my own?
You don't have to, many animals can be loners. Unfortunately you can't make your own pack.
Are we allowed to RP in multiple threads at once?
Not recommended because sometimes one thread can affect your character in some way that can't be backed up in the other thread at the same time. Generally it's okay as long as you keep the character constant with how you originally began RPing in that thread, and that you can manage to keep them all under control.
What is God-modding?
God-modding is having a flawless character who always hits their target, always dodges an attack, or knows everything about everyone and all their actions. In short, acting like a god.
