::Rules::
::General Rules::
1. No whining, fighting, flaming, or otherwise causing any sort of negative feelings in the thread. Disagreements are to be taken to PMs. Failure to heed this rule will result in immediate greylisting (offenders may be blacklisted depending on circumstances).
2. Artwork may be altered without question for the following reasons: Signature Art, Journal Banners, and references for the owner. Any other alterations need to be cleared with staff and/or the owner of the wolf.
3. Do not PM about availability. If it says none available, it means none available. Bribes and pet trades are available on first come, first serve basis and are not always open.
4. Understand that all staff members have lives and may need to hiatus for any reason relating to RL. Staff will do their best to alert players if this will happen.
5. Use common sense, please! Think how your actions will affect others...if you wouldn't be happy with the results if you were on the outside, then you probably shouldn't do it!
::Flatsale Rules::
1. Do not post your entry until a GO post is posted. A flat sale only starts when this appears in the thread.
2. You may only try for a wolf or familiar for yourself in a prompt-based flatsale. If a speed sale is being held, it is up to the colorist to decide if gifting will be allowed.
3. Once you post your entry, DO NOT EDIT, even for RP response sales.
4. Entries recieved the same minute as my STOP will be accepted but none after. No exceptions unless gaia is being difficult. It is the staff's call if a sale needs to be extended.
5. All flat sale entries must contain the phrase "a lone wolf is a dead wolf" somewhere in the post. It can be at the bottom of your entry, at the top, or even in the middle of your entry. It must be there to prove you read the rules. This is for speed sales also!
6. If you cannot pay for your wolf or familiar within 24hrs of winning it, then do not apply.
7. Those with wolves and/or familiars are free to participate in flat sales unless specified otherwise. It is encouraged, however, for current owners to let some new folk get in on the fun of RPing.
::Auction Rules::
1. No whining, fighting, flaming, or otherwise causing any sort of negative feelings in the thread. Disagreements are to be taken to PMs. Failure to heed this rule will result in immediate greylisting (offenders may be blacklisted depending on circumstances).
2. Do not "plan" your bid in this thread. It's discouraging to others.
3. Bids are to have item prices included if you are using items and a final total at the bottom.
4. The auctions will run for varied amounts of time depending on who is holding it. Be sure to check for starting and ending times! Ending times may change depending on a colorist's schedule but we will do our best to not cut the bidding time down once the auction has started.
5. Co-owning is permissible, but only with two people.
6. Make sure you CLEARLY state which wolf or familiar you are bidding on if there is more than one wolf being auctioned in a single thread.
7. Under NO circumstances may you edit your bidding posts unless you are quoting a past bid and adding more bidding items below it.
8. All bidders are responsible for knowing all the General Rules and Rping Rules. Failure to obey these rules will result in a warning and possible removal of your wolf or familiar with a refund that matches the price you paid. Meaning, if you pay with an AFK that was priced at 1 million, then had your wolf removed months later, we would not be responsible in paying the inflated price of an AFK.
9. All items, excluding store items, are taken at tektek.org prices. Shop items are taken at their sellback value.
These rules are subject to modifications or additions as the staff sees fit.
