General Rules
1.) No stealing lineart. This lineart is copyright da_queeny. Respect that. Art thieves will be found, caught, and reported.
2.) Be nice. Y'know that old 'golden rule'? The one in the Bible, not the other one? Yah. Be nice to everyone, and I'll be nice to you. Got it? We don't want to see any arguing here.
3.) I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. I don't care who you are.
4.) No whining, begging, pleading, etc. That's a fast ticket to the Blacklist.
5.) This is a PG-13 site. Behave as such. Thank you muchly.
6.) Roleplay is NOT required, but there may be perks for RPers.
7.) DO NOT PM RAVEN. If you must PM someone, PM this account.


Flatsale Rules
1.) Flatsales are done on a first-come, first served basis.
2.) Flatsales do not start until someone on the mule or Raven says GO.
3.) You may buy for friends, however, each person may only get one Giraffe per 24 hours in a flatsale.
4.) Giraffes cost 2.5K in a flatsale. Payment is expected immediately upon confirmation.
5.) Claim Giraffes in a flatsale by number, not description.
6.) No editing your claiming posts or changing your mind. Think carefully.

Are these RP required?
Not at all-- although we'd LOVE it if you stopped by once in a while. Feel free to RP here if you want.

Can I direct-link?
Not for your sig. A pet journal, sure-- until they reach their adult stage, then host them yourselves, please. If bandwidth becomes a problem again, I'll be forced to take this option away.

Where can I pick-up my Giraffe?
Flatsale giraffes will be posted in the pick-up posts. Commons, customs, and other such Giraffes will be PMed to you via this account.

Can I be a guest colorist?
If we decide we need one, we'll go looking. We'll call you, don't call us.

What's the deal with breeding?
See the breeding post.

So in sales and stuff, who do I send the trade to?
Send it to this account,
.Giraffes.Unlimited.

Can I sell my pet?
No. You can sell the babies from your breedings in auctions, as posted in the breeding post.

I have another question!
Ask it in the thread, and we'll answer it.

It's been years and years since I last visited the Meadows. But that land, that strange plane between this world and some other, unknown universe, is where I first discovered them.

Who, you ask? Why, the strange creatures who flourish there-- the most common of which are the Giraffes. Sweet, little giraffes who flock about.

I brought them back here, took them away from their world. I stole them and brought them here to Gaia. I wanted to share them with the rest of Gaia.

Once your Giraffe is an adult, they can breed with any other adult! It's not that difficult. xd

There are two different ways to breed. Either way, your Giraffe will not be able to breed again for a full month after the process.

The first is with any Giraffe in the store. As long as the two owners consent, there will be a breeding between the pair (no sex actually need be involved, see story) and there will be between two and four babies produced.

The second is with your Giraffe's mate. Between mates, as there is a deeper connection between the Giraffes, the breeding will produce between three and five babies.

FAQ
What happens if my Giraffe has an alignment?
There is a 25% chance your Giraffe will pass its alignment down to its offspring.

What about line-edited/cosplay Giraffes?
Simple lineart edits and and Special Edition Giraffes have a 25% chance of passing down their edits to their children. Cosplays will only pass down heavy lineart edits to their children if they are mated.

What about commons/non-unique Giraffes?
They can breed with any unique Giraffe. 3nodding This basically means two commons cannot breed together. A common and a stock SE cannot breed. Etc.

How do I mate my Giraffes?
Find a willing Giraffe/owner and PM this account with the names of the mated Giraffes. Certs will be updated to reflect this change.

What can I do with the babies?
You can keep one Giraffe per owner per breeding. You can give the rest away to friends, or you can give them to the shop to be auctioned off. You will receive 50% of the auction proceeds.

How do I get a breeding slot?
First, send the trade for the correct amount to this account. Please only send one trade-- consolidate the gold on one account if it's from two different owners. Second, PM the form to this account. Breeding slots will be awarded by order of trades. If you try to get a slot when there are no slots open, I will cancel your trade.

Giraffes are not roleplay required. However, they are roleplay encouraged.

I know, I know. You have no idea what you could get for RPing. I promise you, I'm working on it. ninja

Egg: At this stage of the game, the Giraffe can't do much of anything. Highly vulnerable and breakable, the Giraffe has no way to communicate or reach the outside world.

Baby: A highly impressionable point in the Giraffe's life, this is when personalities are formed. Intensely aware and curious about their surroundings, Giraffes often go through various stage of childhood and teenager-land in this stage.

Adult: Finally a full-fledged adult, the Giraffe carries the intelligence of a full-grown human. This is the stage where they start developing crushes, etc. on other Giraffes, and when they can first breed.

The Guild can be found
here.

It's highly suggested that all Giraffe owners join the Guild, as it is where many events could take place. You do not have to be a member of the Guild to post in the Guild, as it is a public Guild.
