Basic Rules
Three words: Respect, respect, & respect! Respect must be shown to the TSC staff and all it's members. Nobody should feel uncomfortable in the group, if you do please message the group with your concerns. We'll be more then happy to help you!
We have a Three Strike warning, get three strikes and you'll be kicked from the group.
TSC is a semi-literate to literate roleplay group. That means no text or script style RPing, and spelling/grammar/punctuation errors should be at a minimum (Script RP is only allowed in chatrooms)!! That means you must try and use proper spelling and grammer.
No bullying, we are a bully free zone, and any sign of it will result in a warning if it is minor, but if severe enough WILL result in an instant exile from the group.
Need to ask a question? Please ask one of the admins! But DON'T note them personally!
Now as you might of read in the 'How to Join' journal, you need a keyword to join... That key word is 'Erin Hunter'
Include everyone! Nobody should feel left out.
Be as active as you can. If you must fall inactive for a certian period of time that is more then 2-3 days, then please notify the group staff by noting the group!!
Get things in on time. The TSC staff can't stress enough how important this is. All activity checks must be completed on time and all kittens from litter audition must be posted on time!

Art & Character Creation Rules
Applications must be drawn by their roleplayer. It must not be commissioned or drawn using lineart. Please note the group if you have a problem with this.
You can have up to 10 cats. To get more you must earn enough points. Kits and NPC's are an exception.
Original artwork only, we do not accept line art for a character application!! Paligeratism is very much frowned upon here, and if caught you will recieve a warning.
Cats must have a relatively realistic designs, no crazy unnatural colors or patterns. That means we don't want to see any sparkle cats(unnaturally colored) walking around!!
No cat can have any special powers or prophecies without permission from the founder.
No repeated names! Suffix's can be repeated, but not prefixes. (In one clan or tribe)
Tribe cats use the same format for names that the tribe in the Warriors Books use; no tribe name can start with the word "The" due to this.
Please submit to the correct folder or subfolder and notify an admin when something is not in the right folder.
Names must be relatively realistic. No words in their name can be a word a wild cat---or a cat in general---would not know.
You CANNOT join the group as a kit (that includes adopting from a litter) or create a kit that was just "found" or "both their parents died". This is too unrealistic. If you want a kit, adopt from a litter currently in the group, become mates and have your own litter, or save to buy it with leaf points.
Tribe cats that are not fluffy with lighter pelts may be denied joining the tribe. There cannot be too many cats outside the genetic standard. If you want to join the tribe, make a cat with a light pelt and thicker fur. If you are unsure of what pelt colors are accepted for the tribe, note the group in this format: "TSC Staff: Tribe Fur Colors" and we'll get to you as soon as possible. You may buy a dark furred cat though with leaf points.
 All tribe cats that are not kittens or to-bes must have war-marks and spirits feathers!! Read this journal for more info: the-six-clans.deviantart.com/j…

Roleplay Rules
Drama is much loved, but don't overload it!
 No powerplaying & godmodding!! This means no killing or injuring someone else's cat without their permission and no taking control of somebody else's cat.
Higher Ranking cats have authority!! This includes leaders & healers, spirit-guide & deputies, tribe chiefs, and medicine cats for illnesses/injuries. And apprentices and kits, MUST listen to any warrior, not just your OC's mentor or parents.
All cat's must die eventually, high Ranks included! It won't be too harsh on this, but when It's obvious you will be notified that a cat needs to die/lose a life.
No perfect cats or completely bad cats. Everyone has their good and bad traits. We don't want to see any mary-sues or gary-sues walking about!!
Queens must note the group with proof of mateship and pregnancy(required art/roleplay pieces) and an admin will say how many kits born/have defects, and their genders. The father and mother can each only roleplay a maximum of 2 of their kits and the parents must be of different role players.
A queen cannot be a queen for more than three months in real life's time, the kits must be born within a month or they lose their spot, and kits have to rank up within five months of being born or they will be killed off.
If you wish to do anything involving incest or rape you must first note the group with your idea and an explanation to receive permission.

TSC's Blacklist
Below are those who have been kicked or banned.
For current members, this is just a warning that it is probably best if you refuse any and all requests to roleplay from them. It would not count for anything if you did accept.

Need anything? Something not correct in a journal? Note the group with the name of the clan it involves. It should be formatted as "ClanName : Subject" or "Admin : Subject" if the note is not clan specific. Do not note the staff any questions directly on their accounts, all group related questions should be noted to the group itself, that is untless you are noted by one of the TSC's staff.
