For the personality thing, I think it could work! I already have some written out, but I don't mind if we simplify them. So either options are ok with me. What does everyone else think?

Heck yeah I'm down for short forms!
Hey cherry! As the others have said, we haven't started yet, but you're more than welcome to start planning characters here if you want!
I have to finish up some graphics for the pages, but after that we can aim to get them up shortly!

Nice nice I'm thinking
Name: Rank: Gender: 3 personality traits: Book description: History: Relationships: Other:
As the categories of the form. (I'll make it all fancy later). Is there anything I'm missing?

no, i think that’s just about everything
that is, unless we wanted to add a sexuality section. i don’t think it’s nessecary, though - we could just specify in the rules to add their sexuality in the “other” section if they’re not straight

Hmmm maybe. Idk I always end up making all my characters bi because I'm lazy, but if everyone else wants it as a section I can fit it in.

I think it might be good to add it, just cause it helps when discussing if you want your characters to end up in a relationship or something. What Rose said would word to tho! Just make sure to remind people to add it somewhere. I think we should encourage characters having some sort of family, just cause it's fun when there are different families in the rp.

And then when you add it to your main pages you only include the first stuff? What do you guys think about including an optional photo to the form? On one hand it helps get a image of the cat, but it can look weird on the main page if one person has pictures when others don't.

images can go either way. i personally was not always fond of joining Clans when I had to use an image (it's truly a pain in the ass on mobile) but it's pretty on front pages - so I don't really have an opinion
as for the forms themselves, could I suggest using gender symbols? I love the look of them haha; so something like:
[ picture maybe?? ]
[ ♀/♂ ] -- [ name ] -- [ age in moons ] -- [ sn ] [ negative trait, neutral trait, positive trait ]
book description
History: Rank: Sexuality and Relationships: Other:
and on the main pages - we're going for alphabetical order character wise, right? or just in order of who joins?

Ooo I do like the gender symbols a lot!
I usually do it by age, that way senior warriors are at the top, and new warriors are at the bottom.

For photos, it should either be mandatory or with none at all. Just so everyone has the same basic form. I also like the symbols!!

Yeah I agree. I'm leaning towards no picture then, and if people really want to include an image of their cat they can always post it in the other section, and it just won't get added to the main pages.

I had a friend who would do drawings of each cat in their clan and had a small area on the front page for art, would y'all be fine if I did that? It's good practice, but if not that's totally fine haha Especially you Rose! Since you'll be the main admin for Cypressclan!

Oh shoot, I was gonna respond but my post got deleted and I forgot when I was rewriting everything.
Hmm we really haven't been doing much just talking characters and stuff. Rose suggested that palm's murderer was the mate of cypress and they had kits?? So in an exchange they were going to give palmclan the kits to save cove/echo/whoever, but palmclan ended up going back on their word and still chasing out cove. But there are cats in Palmclan who are anti cypress clan but in reality they're the decendants of cypress.

*raises hand* What if my character is not conforming to the ♀/♂ genders. I get that their sex would, but are we allowing saaaaaaaaaay genderfluild, nonbinary, agender, genderqueer, etc. gender identities for the cats into the clans? Or get creative: ⚥ ⚩ ⚲ ⴲ ☿ ⚪
In other things, sorry for the poof. I was on vacation and forgot to say. @.@ If anyone needs help with the rules, I'm around.

Hey y'all I'm here for a bit! The main things I wanted to get hammered out rule wise was activity and literacy, but if you had any other ideas feel free to share em!
Mint those would all be acceptable, you'd just write it out rather than use a symbol!

Post by mintedstar/fur on Aug 27, 2019 16:45:54 GMT -5
Cool! //hugs my sweet Blackmask//
So are we going for semi-literate or literate?
I'm cool with either. Then again, I post match, soooooo
In another news on activity, I think I'm still going to be active, but apparently I'm working a lot more hours than I previously expected. The main difference might be that I'll be typing things on my phone.

Post by lazy penguin on Aug 27, 2019 18:00:37 GMT -5
That's fine mint!
I was leaning towards semi-lit since most literate rps don't get a ton of joiners. But I also want to be open to more inexperienced rpers since they tend to have the best activity rates? So? Idk fam, idk.

I think semi-lit is probably best, tho that's just imo. You can always just do something like 'at least three lines per character' since that's more, but also not incredibly hard to do.

Post by mintedstar/fur on Aug 28, 2019 9:58:30 GMT -5
Three lines per character seems decent! I think that's a fair start.

Post by rose on Aug 28, 2019 10:31:54 GMT -5
three seems great. i definitely think that'll be the best way to get more joiners - with semi-lit, we're open to newer writers and advanced ones as well. i love it!

Post by rose on Aug 28, 2019 10:33:03 GMT -5
it's definitely not my intent to rush you, peng, but do you have a vague time frame on as to when you'd like to open these Clans?

Post by lazy penguin on Aug 28, 2019 15:27:12 GMT -5
And three lines (maybe make it sentences since lines can be different sizes based off coding) per character sounds great!
