number one, Powerplaying and godmodding don't belong here. End of story. Your character is not invincible and you are not allowed to control another person's character. If you are caught doing either, you will receive a warning. The second time will earn you a short ban, dependent on how excessive it is. Third strike and you're out.
number two, Posts must be at least one good paragraph. We consider a paragraph to be at least seven sentences of five words or more each. Most the punishments will only be warnings, but if you abuse this kinder punishment, we will call you on it and resort to bans.
number three, Be civil to each other, please, and respect each other. No flaming, trolling, baiting or anything of the like. We won't stand for it; it's rude and mean. We're just here to have fun. Your characters can insult each other all they want, but keep it in check. If someone is bothering you, message a staff member immediately. Break this rule and you'll immediately get a week to two week ban, depending on how bad it was. Second time offenders will be permanently banned.
number four, Language. Watch it. Although curses are acceptable in moderation, note that this is in moderation. If you happen to be creative, make up your own insults! Like, if you're a Koehaer horse, you probably don't like the Kiele much, so something like "waterbrained" could maybe be an insult. But that was kind of a terrible example. Clearly I'm not as good at this as I'd like. Too much swearing will get you a warning, then a temporary ban, then a permanent ban, in order of offenses. This also fits for not marking more mature threads with an [M] or something of the like. However, even these threads should not go against the proboards terms of service. Incidents that do will result in a permanent ban immediately, as they could get us shut down.
number five, As for applications and posts, please use your best English. This means use the spellcheck button if you have to, and paste it in a word processor to check your grammar if necessary! You'll only get warnings, but it also makes it difficult for people to roleplay with you if they can't understand what you wrote. Also, please avoid perfect characters(mary sues and gary stus). No one's perfect. Flaws are what makes this so fun! This won't get you in trouble, but your character won't get accepted if it's one of these type of characters.
number six, Only advertise in the share the love board, please. This is a respect thing. We put a lot of work into this site, we don't need you advertising willy nilly and making it look messy and unorganized. This follows the usual warn, then temporary ban, then permanent ban punishment structure.
number seven, One account per player. Uh... can't really elaborate on this one. Oh! And you don't need to have the name of your character as your member name. We really don't care too much about that, as long as we can tell who plays who, and there's a section in the app for that!
number eight, The horses here must have a normal base color, but past that? We arent' too picky. Have strange colored or shaped markings, go right ahead! This clearly isn't a fully realistic roleplay, so what's the point pretending it is?
number nine, There are only three herds. However, there can be subherds. This means any stallion in Fiele, Kethali or Koehaer can have up to five mares that follow him. The king can have as many as he likes. The rest will be detailed elsewhere.
number ten, No stallions can successfully breed before two, and no mares can successfully breed before three. That's the way it is. All breedings must be put up in the predict the young board, cause staff choose how many foals and their genders/base colors.
