General Rules
*Please keep cussing to a minimum. A few swear word here and there is fine, but no "Mother F***, D*** H*** P***, I hate you you little SH**" The thread will be deleted and you will be banned for 3 days if I see this happening. There is NO WARNING for this. After this punishment you will be banned for life from this site so just don't... {Remember a swear word or two in each post is OK but please try to keep it to in character posts}
*Respect everyone. We all have our differences, and you have to
respect that. If someone isn't as good of an RPer as you, don't be rude to them and refuse to RP with them. That just isn't nice and will promote that this site has a bad reputation, so please try to treat everyone well. No fighting is allowed, with admins or other players. There is no point in fighting and it usually ends up with someone getting hurt. So if you do this you will be warned, then banned for three days and if you still do it then you will be banned for life.
*Don't harass the admins about stupid little problems like "she said my horse was ugly" because there isn't really any point to that. Also don't push them to accept your character profile, if you do we will take longer to accept it. Also don't rush others to reply to your post(s). PLEASE pay attention to this rule. When you are being rushed to reply to your posts it becomes not as fun and we want everyone to enjoy what they are doing here.
*Be as active as you possibly can be. A couple of missed days is OK as long as you return. There is a leaving/hiatus board that you may post at if you are leaving forever or over four days so people know that you have left.
*Don't post ANYWHERE but the Joining board, the General board, and the c-box until your character is accepted.
*No power playing / god-modeling / autoing. It's not fun for everyone involved, and it doesn't allow others to come up with original ideas.
*NO porn. We don't want to see that stuff! Go to a porn site if you must, but don't bring that gross stuff here. You will be banned forever if you do this no warning, no little PM, nothing! It is NOT acceptable. {{We like people who readrules a lot, might help in trying to get the joining board password}}
*A SIM year is four months, so every four months it will be a new SIM year so hopefully the site will be updated every four months.
*You may only have 4 characters to start out with. That's a lot, people! Please keep them all on one account, but use a different color for each of your characters when you post or something, or include an avatar with a picture in each of your posts, so we know which one your are posting with. As you reach the posting count of 250 you will be awarded with an extra character and an other horse for one of your previous characters. It is a milestone to hit 250 posts so it will be awarded.
*Your posts must be at least 4 lines in length, this means when you his the post button your post must stretch down 4 lines as we are aiming for a higher standard of posting.

Joining Rules
*Don't post ANYWHERE but the Joining board, the General board, and the c-box until your character is accepted. Again don't rush the admins we have lives too, so just be patient and maybe we will reward you with more karma of a couple extra post counts.
*There will be a form that you will need to fill out to be accepted, so please read it thoroughly to make sure that you have gotten everything.
*In order to get the password for the joining page please read through the rules as people who readrules are likely to find the password.
*Your characters will be allowed to join with one horse and one other animal as a pet, small enough to live in your dorm so nothing like a cow or moose.
*You are allowed to use pictures of people that aren't your own, but please remember to cite where you got the picture from. If you are using a famous person's picture you aren't allowed to use their name.

*Displays of affection are limited. I'm sorry but I must do this. As I have said above NO PORN, if there is any seen you will be banned immediately, no warning! Suicide, sex, drinking, etc. is allowed but if anyone ANYONE misuses this privilege it will be removed and no longer allowed.

Horse rules
*Horses must be within the ages of 3-20, they can't under the age of three or over the age of twenty. {{Again we love people who readrules, they are very special and know what the password is}}
*They have to be mostly trained like they know how to be ridden, lead and stuff like that. They don't have to be perfect and know every single move there is to know because in real life horses are never fully trained as they are always learning. Please no horses who are always spooking ALL the time 'cause that gets a little old, but a spook or buck or something like that is fine once in a while because "hay" they are horses thats what they are supposed to do.
*There is NO racing at Silent Pine, by this we mean flat racing and steeplechasing, barrel racing is acceptable. If you feel the need for speed on a thoroughbred, arab, paint or quarter horse visit One Mile
*The accepted disciplines are
-Barrel Racing
-Cutting

*No stallions, unless you really, really, really want one and ask nicely, then please no stallions
*Please don't put too many unusual coat colors on your joining horses because they are supposed to be unusual
Breaking ANY rules will get you a warning (for each warning you get, your warning level will go up 10 %), do it again, and you will be banned for 1 - 3 days. Depending on the gravity of your infraction, you may be banned permanently. Unless the rules that say otherwise this is how all the other rules will be watched
