⌦ Age & Content
This dream operates in a realm and full content range appropriate only for those age 18 years of age and above in the real world, and within the post-apocolyptic world of Fort Cheyenne. This means that children, including but not limited to infant years, may not be played characters under any circumstance and must not be represented in a playable form in game.

⌦ Consent & God-Moding
The rules of consent for any particular character are to be decided by that character's player under all circumstances and in all instances, it is that player's obligation and responsibility to both state their limits to those they choose to interact with and pull themselves out of situations that the do not find appropriate or acceptable. That said, God-Moding (assuming or forcing one's own actions and circumstances on another for the sake of favored progression within an RP) will not be tolerated in group or dream-wide plot settings.

⌦ IN versus OUT of Character
Please just be conscious of the differences between these two. Players and their characters do not always hold the same beliefs, moral codes, attitudes or feelings. Mixing the two can cause unwanted drama and suck the fun out of what we're all doing here. Furthermore, OOC behaviors should be kept out of IC areas and vice versa, just to make sure lines remain clear!

⌦ Character Creation & Acceptance
Because this dream is a private, relatively closed community that we've worked hard to create, we will maintain guidelines around character and business creation meant to impact the continuity in any major way. This is not a means of policing those interested in playing with us and contributing to our little dream, but instead to maintain its standards and the premise we've built and that initially caught interest. Please respect these standards and feel free to request assistance if there is some aspect of this process that you do not understand.
ON APPLICATIONS:
We will review applications for joining beyond the generic "Do you agree to our terms?" and will even go as far as to check out character RPRs for at least a general adherence to the continuity (i.e. no medieval furres joining the Purist faction). Characters that wish to interact within the dream and participate in dream events and RPs will be required to be 'appropriate' at least generally speaking for their respective roles.

⌦ Abuse & Harrassment
This very much falls under the one to one rules of Furcadia and/or RPR where you are capable of utilizing the silence rule/ignore functions on a personal level. If this gets to be a dream-wide issue or complaints against the same person become frequent, a more case by case handling of the situation will occur.

⌦ Founders & Staff
The staff, small as we may be, are here to assist. If you have questions, suggestions, concerns -- these are all things we want to hear. We pledge to check our own feelings at the door and be attentive and present where our continuity is concerned, and to put it first when we are available and online, and to be prompt and effective once we become so if we are not around at a time when we're needed.
