General Rules

These are the general rules of the site and game. Please read and do your best to remember them. We have a two warning policy, and on the third offence, you will be punished according to the severity of the offence.

PLEASE READ ALL THE RULES AND IMPORTANT LINKS. If you don't help yourself, there is very little we can do to help you.
It is quite annoying to have to repeat ourselves when all the information is right there for you.

_{new or revised rules are in red.}

GENERAL RULES
These always include the common sense rules.
+ No swearing
+ Preferably no fighting. We all have our disagreements, but if it escalates to a very heated argument you need to take it out over PM.
+ No Cheating/Copying/Plagiarism. We have had incidences from a single member where she changed race results after posting them and copied other's workouts and used them as her own. She goes by the names 'Meghan, Rae, Topaz, Missy' and a variety of others, and is something like a terrorist to many sim games in this circle. So members should report any suspicious behaviour like this to staff members, so we can get rid of the source as quickly as possible.
+ No graphic roleplaying or talk. We don't actually roleplay all that much on here, only for workouts etc. But the rule does still apply and anyone caught breaking this rule even on the first offence will be heavily penalised.
+ Famous names may not be used for horses, characters or display names. This includes names of real horses, real people, movies, tv shows, names of characters/horses in movies/tv shows, etc.

OTHER RULES
+ Nothing is real. This is a sim game.
+ New members, please read the new member step by step guide. It will help you to navigate the site more easily and give you a better understanding of what the game is about and how to play.
+ Inactive accounts are deleted and horses claimed on a regular basis. Not logging in for two weeks will mean your account is inactive, not logging in for a month means your account is deleted. Not posting for a month without reason is also considered grounds for account deletion.
Please post in the discussion board if you will be away.
+ Report anyone you find breaking the rules by PMing staff members (Sunfrost, Ripley, Cavallo, Kenren).
+ Enjoy the game!
