General Rules:
The General Rules apply to everyone and must be followed. Make sure to read through them, for anyone who breaks a rule will be grey listed and then black listed if the rule-breaking continues.
1. Follow the Gaia ToS
2. Everyone must read the whole first page before posting, the answer to your question may already be on this page. If however, it isn't, please post your questions in the thread and we'll get to it as soon as possible.
3. Don't whine, complain, or otherwise be a pain.
4. Please don't PM us; If you have something important, just post it and I'll get to it when I can.
5. You're not permitted to take or modify any of SkieBorne's or Draconis)Wyrm's art work, designs, or anything without express permission. Theft = instant black list. All images are (c) SkieBorne and Draconis)Wyrm, respectively.
6. If a critter isn't in the Event post, then it's not for sale.
7. Keep things PG-13 and cursing to a minimum.
8. Don't argue with any of the staff. If there's a problem, PM me (Draconis)Wyrm)
9. We do pet trades, but don't take bribes, so don't try it. Feel free to ask about pet trades, however.
10. RPing is highly recommended, but not required.
11. If you're quitting Gaia, let us know whether or not your dragon can be given to a new owner.
12. Don't buy a pet and never return. All we ask is that you drop by once in a while to let us know you haven't dropped off the face of the Earth.
13. Conversations are loved, they bring up the thread.
14. ALL trades go to Ilium_Enchanted, the shop mule.
15. You may not - for any reason - sell your pet! If you don't want it anymore, give it back to the shop and we'll find it a new home.
16. Be a good sport. If you've lost a pet to someone else in an event, please don't be rude. Instead, congratulate them.
17. Don't try to guilt us into giving you a pet and don't ask for one if you can't pay for it.
18. Rules can be changed at any time.
Colourist Rules:
0)Colourists receive 60% of the flatsale, auction, and raffle price for the pets they've coloured, 70% from their customs, and 90% from breedings. Certists recieve 10% of the flatsale, auction, and raffle pets they cert, 5% from customs, 10% from breedings.
1) All employees must listen to Draconis)Wyrm.
2) If you want to run an auction, let Draconis)Wyrm know before hand so she can schedule things properly.
3) If you are let go, or no longer wish to be a staff member of this shop (as-in quit or fired, or disappearing), you do not hold any copyrights to any outlines, even if you altered them. They are property and copyright of SkieBorne and Draconis)Wyrm respectively. Any colorings you submitted to us that haven't been sold yet can be sold without the payment to you since you no longer work for the shop.
4) The outlines are for use here on Gaia Online, in the shop only. Using them for profit is theft and will be severely dealt with.
5) Any changes in the outlines dealing with Ilium Enchanted must be comfirmed by Draconis)Wyrm before being sold or auctioned. You're free to alter the lineart and be creative, but please don't sell it without our approval. Our permission is easy to get so please pass it by us first.
6) You may not enter your images colored by you in any Art forum, such as Elfwood, DeviantART, or the Gaia Art Arena rating forum here. The coloring is your work, but the outline is still copyrighted to SkieBorne or Draconis)Wyrm.
7) Everyone may set there own prices for autobuys (in auctions, of course) as long as it is within reason. If it is found to be unreasonable then it will be reviewed and we will give you a fair range to set it in.
8 ) Newly hired colorists are on a one month probationary period. If it doesn't work out, they will be let go.
Flatsales:
There are a couple ways that Flatsales run around here, the two most common being speed sales and RP prompts.
Do not post your entry until the big red "GO!" is up. Believe me, you won't miss it. A flatsale only starts when this is up.
~The price is varies depending on the rarity of the dragon.
~Those with dragons are welcome to participate, unless otherwise specified.
~I'll post the available pets a few days before the sale begins.
~You can only get one dragon per flatsale
~I'll post the rules again, 5 minutes before the sale begins.
~Only 2-3 eggs will be sold each sale.
Speed Sales
1. First come first served.
2. Send trades Ilium_Enchanted
3. Fill out form correctly, incorrect forms will be ignored
4. Fill out this form:
Speed Sale Form
-------Username:
-------Selection: (include colour and/or birthdate)
-------Name:
-------Parents: (Optional)
-------Total amount owed: RP Prompt Flatsale
1. Once you post your entry, you MAY NOT EDIT! Editing = instant disqualification and you lose your chance for that event.
2. Choose only one that you want, don't give alternatives or lists - it's not fair to others. Also, make sure to include the colour and number of your selection. If we can't figure out which one you want, we'll skip your entry.
3. Entries submitted the minute we end the flatsale will still be reviewed but anything after that won't.
4. If you can't pay within 36 hours of winning, don't apply.
How it Works:
1) To enter an RP prompt flatsale, wait for the big red "GO!" then post the following form:
RP Prompt Form
-------Username:
-------Selection: (include colour and/or birthdate)
-------Entry: (Give a minimum 1 paragraph RP sample.)
-------a) Creativeness and uniqueness
-------b) Proper spelling and grammar
-------c) Whether it's interesting or not
The top 3-6 entries will then be ranked from first place through sixth place (amount varies with the flatsale).
3) The winners will then choose the pet they want, starting with the first place winner first and so on down to the last person. Auctions
Auction Rules:
1. Starting bid is 1000g.
2. Bid increments must be at least 500g. This means if Joe bid 1000g before me, I must bid at least 1500g in order to have a valid bid. Bids that don't follow this rule are not valid and will be ignored.
3. The start and end times will be posted in the Events post.
4. NO EDITING your post whatsoever. Editing = instant disqualification.
5. Once you win, send the trade and name your dragon. (We'll announce the winners)
6. No sniping. New bidders must bid before the last hour arrives. If bids are still being made in the last 10 minutes, the auction will be extended by 10 minute increments until no more bids are made. Please note that new bidders will not be accepted if this happens.
7. DO NOT retract bids without one hell of a reason.
8. Once the auction's over, it's over. Don't complain.
9. Items are allowed;all non-commons (including letters and donation items) will be valued mid-level Teh Guide. Please, for the love of cookies, don't bid things like hockey masks and other "newb" items. If you must, they're valued at sellback and no more.
10. Bids including items must have a tally and final total at the bottom.
Ex.
-------5500g (1 Sealed Letter)
-------1000g
-------------------
-------Total: 6500g Raffles
Raffle Rules:
1. You are allowed to buy tickets up to the max amount. Prices and available amounts will vary with each raffle.
2. All winners will be chosen at random.
3. Tickets must be paid for up front, no IOUs
4. Slots will be awarded in the order people post; there will be no preferred numbers.
5. Sending a trade without specifying the number of tickets you want will result in me cancelling the trade.
