The Principality of Anaheim

DISCLAIMER: IT IS THE PLAYER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO FAMILIARIZE THEMSELVES WITH THE RULES OF OUR DREAM. IGNORANCE OF THE RULES DOES NOT EXCUSE ONE FROM OBEYING THE RULES.

1.) The most important rule in our dream is to use common sense. If it seems like a bad idea, or like something that might upset or anger somebody, don't do it. These rules are not all encompassing, and it is expected that players inject a little common sense into their actions and words. So if we call you out on something, and it doesn't appear in any of the other rules, rule #1 applies.

2.) No metagaming or powergaming. Don't assume that your actions against/toward another player are a given, they have to consent to the actions. And don't exceed reasonable power limits. We are a fantasy dream, but no one man is powerful enough to blow up an entire city or carry a building in one hand, and there are to be no god or god-like characters. If you disagree with an action or somebody else's character's level of power, involve an administrator and we'll be happy to help you guys sort it out.

3.) Be courteous, be polite. We're not babysitters and we're not going to babysit you. This rule somewhat falls under rule number one. If you can't be polite with somebody, don't say anything to them. We're not going to abide troublemakers, trolls, or people who like to bend the rules without actually breaking them who want to play this game of "show me what rule you broke". Admin reserves the right to boot you at any time, for any reason. But if you're abiding the rules, especially rule one, you shouldn't have any problems.

4.) Abide the Furcadia TOS and the dream rating (T+). We like this game, we want to continue to play it and we want to continue to host our dream in it. That means we abide their rules as well as our own. If you're unfamiliar with the Furcadia TOS, it is MANDATORY for you to familiarize yourself with them. Go to www.furcadia.com and read up on them.

5.) Be era appropriate. We have instituted a couple of anachronisms for the sake of creativity, and we allow some anachronisms WITHIN REASON. If you come in here wearing army fatigues and carrying an M-16, you will be asked to fix your desc. This goes along with the common sense rule.

6.) Have FUN! This dream exists for folks to kick back, relax, and have a good time. If you're not enjoying yourself, you need to talk to one of the admins and let us know what we need to change/add/subtract from the dream to make this place more enjoyable for you. We're here for you, and while we may not always agree with you on the best way to make this place more fun, we are ALWAYS open to suggestion.
