RULES!
1. First and foremost, PLEASE don't steal my art. I actually work hard on it, and I'd really hate to see people taking it without paying for it. Art theft is illegal. If you decide to steal my drawings, I will find out. Just don't do it. Penalties for art theft include: Blacklisting, reporting to a mod. You will not be allowed to own a Brannon, and any Brannon you DO own will be taken away.
2. Flatsales will be held in this way from now on: When I open a flatsale, I will ask a question/provide a scene/etc. You will have 24 hours to answer the question thouroughly. There will be places assigned... The first place winner will have first pick of the eggs, and so on down the line. This is to prevent people with fast modems from snapping up eggs. It's also a measure I can use for quality control. Thanks to Jynk for the idea.
3. No harassing me or the people who post here and/or own Brannons. This means: If you don't like the Brannon you get, don't complain. Don't harass other owners, either, and to those that have enough to bid in auctions... Well. Leave them alone, too.
4. Be respectful to the others on the forum, and do your best to type legibly in the English language (No L33T. Type with proper capitalization/punctuation/spelling.) No flame wars or meaningless posts. Bumping is allowed; I just don't want to see anything that might belong in another forum.
5. No reserving. For auctions and flatsales, PLEASE wait 'til I give the Okay to start posting. Don't PM me about auctions/flatsales/raffles.
6. Don't edit a flatsale/auction post once you've posted. Also, one Brannon per flatsale or auction. Thanks.
7. People can be Blacklisted or greylisted at my discression. Blacklisting will last anywhere from a month to being permanent. Don't ask to be removed from the Blacklist. It won't happen.
8. You may have a total of three Brannons. If you already have one or two, and there's someone posting on the thread that's been wanting one, PLEASE be considerate and use your best judgement. Purposely sniping and stealing an egg out from under a hopeful owner's nose will earn you the egg, but you'll also be grey-listed.
9. To prevent sniping in auctions, bidding will close ten minutes after the last bid is placed. If the set time for the auction ends and there are people still bidding, it will be allowed to continue until there's a ten minute time cushion.
10. Now and then I will offer custom and special Brannons. These will be a bit more expensive, though I will draw pretty much whatever you want. There is a limit of ONE special/custom per person, no exceptions.
11. I will not PM you about your Brannon. If you don't A) contact me in some way about names for your baby and B) I never hear from you, I WILL ASSUME YOU'RE NEGLECTING YOUR BRANNON AND GIVE IT TO SOMEONE ELSE.
12. Co-owning is not and will never be allowed. It bothers me greatly that two people will actually get together and pool all their money in an attempt to take a pet out from under the noses of people that don't like co-owning. You cannot consistantly play a character this way. Do not ask about it, please. There are NO CIRCUMSTANCES where I will allow co-owning, even if I've known you on Gaia for 10 years.
