First thing's first. The Rules are not there to be discussed, or put up for a debate. Admin/Mod's word is final. If you have an issue with what's been decided please take it up with another mod, or me via PM. It is not to openly discussed/complained about on threads. So yeah, Admin/Mod words is what goes. This is not to be worried about by genuine members who are willing to learn and respect others, but to be headed by trolls and members who are way to far up their own.. I'll stop here. Just read the rules and follow them please and we'll all get along fine. 
On a final note people, please make sure you RESPECT one another and just be nice. Oh, and leave your crap at the door. ^.^
Rules:
Okay, so I'll make this as quick and painless as possible.
Once you register, if you don't activate your account within a WEEK, then your account will be deleted. You are also required to make a post within the first two weeks after you activate your account. If you become inactive and don't make a post in a yearm you account will also be deleted.
Only create an account if you are either otherkin, you want to learn about otherkin, or you wish to share your knowledge on the subject. If you've signed up just to troll and be a nuisance, don't bother.
We work on a 3 strike basis:
-First strike is a warning via PM
-Second strike is a temporary ban
-Third strike your out
Everytime you violate the rules, its a strike.
When you sign up, please make sure your username is not offensive. Remeber that you can change your screen name if you want, though I will be limiting this to TWO CHANGES PER USER - otherwise things could get real confusing. Also, please make sure your name is unique, not just a generality such as 'Wolf' or 'Therian'.

Posting:
When you sign up, please post an intro within TWO WEEKS of your account being activated. And please make it more than a few sentences... A few sentences really doesn't count as an introduction of yourself. And please include your 'kin type.
When replying in a thread to a particular member instead of the original post, please make sure you quote or shout. For example:
@randommember
I agree and balh blah blah.

You get the idea.
One more simple rule when posting around the forums...
DON'T SPAM!
Spamming will lead to a strike.
So will text speak. This is a forum for intelligent conversations - not text talk...

Post Content:
Keep it clean as far as possible please. I won't be pedantic about the odd swear word, just so long as you don't use the bid 'c' word and don't go over the top with the cussing.
No porn, drugs or serious roleplay please, this is not a roleplay site and roleplay will result in a strike. Messing around with friends is alright though. For example:
*glomps RandomMember* is acceptable.
But serious roleplay is not tolerated. This is a site for otherkin, and non-kin alike ot just be themselves and learn about the subject.
Preaching, Pretending and Pity-talk are a no-no. And so is backseat-moderating. I have Mods to do that job, if I want you to be a Mod, I'll ask.
Oh, and no Furry images/roleplay whatever please. If you are a Furry, I have no problem with you joining and participating in posts and polls onsite, but please, leave the proper Furry stuff on a Furry site.

Meetings:
There is always a possibility of a forum meet up, but I doubt that will happen just yet.
If members want to meet up that's cool, just be careful and don't arrange it through the site. The site has no part in these meet ups and is NOT responsible. If you want to arrange something, please make sure to do it on Y!M or MSN or whatever it is you use.
