So if we're gonna be completely honest here, when the old forums existed I was an avid kit stealer lol.
But I don't see a lot of kit stealing around any more? Granted I did just rejoin a few days ago, but how prevalent is kit stealing these days on the forums? Are there any active kit stealing Clans any more?

I don't think I've seen a single kit stealing clan. I remember them from the old forums tho.

I have tried to remake my old Kit Stealing clan but haven't had much success far as cats joining. My hope is that Kit Stealing will make a comeback. I miss it.

You know I wouldn't be entirely opposed to making a kit stealing Clan, it brings back so much nostalgia to think about it. xD
I remember when kit stealers were like, actually hated as people back in the day when the forums were basically people under the age of 11, and all of the kit stealing vs savers wars, all the old drama revolving around some of the bigger Clans, oh my goodness
It's such an odd concept though?? Like, cats kidnapping kits from Clans that literally could be anywhere on the globe just to hoard them away. I think it could be an interesting concept if it were developed more. Plus, with these forums there's more leeway in what you can do... nope, now I'm thinking about ideas for a Clan when I should be doing homework rip

XD Despite all the drama, The Kit Stealing stuff was like the highlight of my middle school and high school life. I couldn't wait to get home cause I wasn't sure if Kit Savers would be attacking my clan or not.

As someone who was around during the peak of kit-stealing/saving, part of me is kind of glad it faded away. Don't know if any of you remember that it got really bad at one point. Like, outside of RP, people were being mean to one other. There was a big divide in fan-clans for a while. EVery time I went on, I had to make sure that nothing had happened with my friend or that everything was still running. Didn't the mods go through and delete like, every kit-stealing/saving place? That's how bad it got. Granted, I still put as a rule that no one can kit-steal or anything like that. Old habits die hard.

I actually was a part of the group that were the first kit stealers on the forums, so I definitely do know about all the hate that went on out of character. At some points the "wars" were most definitely personal, and I do remember being caught up in the middle of it all. I still do have a lot of positive memories about it though; it was an interesting time period and I made a lot of friends through it all! I'd love to see the idea develop with today's members, it was a bit pointless back in the day because the mods had made so many rules to inhibit kit stealers but I think it might actually be an interesting concept if developed??

I think MegaBoneclan was to blame for most of the drama. My clan least to my knowledge didn't cause to much drama. Also I think MegaBoneclan wasn't allowed because of the wars and eating kits? It was a really weird time.

Yeahhhhh it was MBC in 2009 that got the no kit eating/killing rules. ^^' It eventually got banned altogether because of the drama that got stirred up between members and other Clans got the page deleted time and time again. I was their deputy for a long time lol, so I definitely may or may not have been one of the main contributors to those rules,,,,, it's so cringey to think about now but during its peak (circa 2011? after kit eating but before TriClan drama) I made a lot of good friends and memories.

Tbh, I was part of the kit-savers. Mostly because my clan got raided without even knowing about stuff like kit-stealing so we didn't have a rule. I got online one day to find a bunch of people telling me that my clan got raided and my deputy was trying to argue and RP for them back with a bunch of others. Luckily, it was all soothed over when I got online. I was so confused. I think it is still safe to say that if you want to bring it back, let's keep the 'No kit-killing/eating/enslaving' rule. Have fun with it! And maybe we can get a kit-saving thing together to rival you. I might have a clan saved away somewhere that could help with the kits overall...I think?

I've read a few clans that have stated "No kit stealing!".Now I just joined the forums yesterday I believe but TBH I had no idea what it meant.I just assumed it meant nothing RPing a rogue within that thread and stealing kits.
But I like the idea of kit stealing.I think there needs to be a section for Fan Clans that participate in kit stealing,and keep ones that don't allow it in another.

I still put no kit-stealing for everything. Just in case. I didn't know if it had completely died out or was just not as popular. It's sort of something that I miss but at the same time, I don't miss the drama. People get very touchy.
As for a separate section, that might be possible? But I think it would be best just to ask around clans and see who would be open to that for either plot or to keep people active. FanClans is slow right now due to classes starting back up. So many wait until its a bit more active?

I wasn't around for the kit-stealing epidemic, but I'm interested in this.

I'm surprised that there's people still interested in it! :0 I may have to think about a potential new Clan; if I make a planning board for it, I will let you guys know!!

It was a really weird time. Oh I was a part of MBC and several other kit-stealing clans. I agree lets bring them back

I'm sorry, but what exactly is kit stealing?
|

Post by Hawkeyes258 on Sept 17, 2018 12:49:15 GMT -5
It's pretty simple. A cat or a group of cats sneak or charge into a clan and steal the kits. This could be one or whole litters. What the cat does is up to the kit stealer. Some like to hold kits for some kind of ransom, some do it to cause chaos and others keep the kits and raise them as their own.

If you're bring back kit-stealing, you will have to have an enemy to either steal from and/or rescue the kits back. Almost every clan in fan-clans has an anti-kit-stealing policy. You really can't just steal from any or all of the clans. People will either argue with you about the policy, ignore you and the actions, or report you.

Maybe put out an APB for kit-savers or to clans that want to have constant action? I know there are several multi-clan RPs?
