Kit Question Thread 2! « Thread Started on Oct 4, 2005, 2:55pm »
Since you are probably new if you are reading this, I would like to be one of the first to say welcome to Warriors! In case you don't know anything about the bookseries on which this site is based, the white print that shows up on "Home" will fill you in.
Most forest cats belong to Clans. There are four of these: ShadowClan WindClan RiverClan ThunderClan
The leader of ThunderClan is me (Froststar). I am the only leader thus far and the official moderator of this whole site. If you have any questions/complaints, come to me! If you want to be a leader, I suggest that you join one of the Clans without a leader (duh!).
Here are the ranks of those in the Clan and how many posts/karma you need for them.
Kit- 1-20 posts
Apprentice- 21-225 posts and positive karma
(If you wish to become a Medicine Cat, you must become a Medicine Cat Apprentice- 50+ posts and 2+karma...only two Medicine Cats per Clan.)
Warrior-226-? posts and 5+ karma
(If you wish to be an Elder- 350+ posts and a positive karma. Must have been a warrior at one time.)
(If you wish to be a MedicineCat- 400+ posts and 10+ karma...only two Medicine Cats per Clan)
(If you wish to be a Deputy- 500+ posts and 30+ karma. Must have been a warrior and a mentor...only one Deputy per Clan.)
(If you wish to be a Leader- 900+ posts and 50+ karma. Must have been a Warrior and a Deputy...only one Leader per Clan.)
If you leave us, you will go to StarClan. Please tell us if you are leaving permanently or just for a few days on Message Board so we aren't confused. If you fail to write and haven't told us that you would be gone, I will be forced to email you. If you still refuse to write, I will have to erase you, which I really don't want to do.
Medicine Cats are the true healers of the Clans. They also converse with StarClan on a regular basis. If you need help with an injury/illness, please don't hesitate to visit the Medicine Cat in your camp.
Deputies can substitute for Leaders if you cannot find them, but they can never truly constitute, so if you have any questions/complaints, you can ALSO go to them. Warriors are next to them and you can also ask them for help, but don't always rely on them.
To create a post, click the "Create New Thread" button at the top right hand of the "board"/section that you want to write a topic on.
If you find out that you have a mistake in your post, you can click the "Modify Post" button after clicking on your topic.
If you would like to delete your post, click the "Delete Post" button (duh!) at the top right hand corner beside "Modify Post."
If you're wondering what the buttons "Smite" and "Exalt" are beside other cat's pictures/avatars, it is for Karma. Karma is basically a reward/punish system which you can give to others when they are deserving of it. When you see anyone going against any of the rules/the Warrior Code, please take away karma. However, when you see good things that cats do, please don't hesitate to reward them. You can only take away/give away one point of karma per hour, though, so make your decision wisely.
No Godplaying! "Godplaying" is where you "make" someone else do something. For example:
Bad: "Froststar saw another cat in the distance. It was the RiverClan Deputy, Ambereyes. As soon as Ambereyes saw the ThunderClan leader, she ran towards her and said, "Hi Froststar! Lovely greenleaf day, isn't it?"
BONK! BONK! Bad, bad, bad! Karma WILL be taken from you if you are caught Godplaying. Here is a good example:
Good: "Froststar saw another cat in the distance. It was the RiverClan cat, Ambereyes. Froststar meowed to her and waited for the Deputy to answer..."
That is a good way to give the other cats an opportunity to answer.
Also, make sure that you use good punctuation and grammar and (if you can) spelling. You do have a "Spell Check" button at the bottom of the screen when first writing your post. You can click on it and it's just like you're in Microsoft Word. It is easy and ensures that no karma is lost due to carelessness.
Make sure you listen to those with positions over you. If a Deputy orders you to do something and you are a kit, you had better do it. If it's an apprentice, consider it first because they are barely older than you, but try to do it anyway (if it's allowed!) Listen to Leaders in other Clans too. But always honor your Clan before anyone else's. Make sure you supply the Clan with everything before your own needs are met. For instance, always bring back the fresh kill to the pile instead of devouring it yourself.
If you have any questions, or you're absolutely new and need a name/gender/Clan/(...etc) change, please post here. Thanks!

Oh, and this is new. If you are sick, come to Medcine Cat Den in RiverClan. (By the way, Amberstar, can you make it so cats of all Clans can come to my Clan? Seeing as that I'm the only Medicine Cat...)

I don't think that that can be arranged. However, we can make a temporary board for your den that anyone can access. If you would like this, reply here and it will be done.
