Posting••Because this RP runs on liquid time (allowing you to post with your characters in multiple threads), time can be kept track of by posting the week number in the title of the post. In order to figure out what week is, simply check the Seasons table (above this board). When posting a new thread, simply place the week number, for instance 14, in the title like so: Shadows of Intrigue (open) 14.
Also, remember that as cats tend to wander to different locations, simply request (to a mod/admin) to have your thread be moved. That way, if it’s an open thread, other cats can join and know where they are.
When posting with more than two characters, make sure to follow posting order. For example, we have three characters Ashpaw, Bramblepaw, and Cinderpaw entering the post in that order. Once Bramblepaw has posted, Ashpaw cannot immediately respond until either Cinderpaw posts or a week is up between posts. Gatherings••Up in the Seasons table, gathering dates are shown. That always officially begins on Friday nights (time varies) and last until the next Friday. Gatherings occur once an RL (real life) month. There is always an official Gathering post where the leaders must post according to this order: SoulClan, AspenClan, FrostClan, AshClan. First, the official post is open to all cats who are invited to intermingle. Then the post is locked for the leaders to post. Afterwards, it is reopened for the cats to RP. After the week is over, all threads will be either archived or moved. Moonpool••All Medicine cats and their apprentices must attend. First, a thread is created in the Moonpool board where they can make their journey to the place. Then, each cat shares tongues with their respective ancestors (characters can be made up). Afterwards, they must RP themselves returning to their Clans. Clan Life••Once a queen has given birth to kits for a week, then may they be claimed by other members for RPing. After 2 weeks have passed, the leader will first pm the chosen mentors before announcing their apprenticeship in the meetings board. Also in the meetings board, other cats may congratulate others in 1st or 3rd person, no matter (note: this isn’t an RP board but rather a clan announcement board). After 2-4 weeks of apprenticeship, soon after visiting a Gathering, apprentices are proclaimed warriors. Deputies must be chosen within 3 days after the previous one has resigned, been killed, or been promoted. Queens are pregnant for 2-3 weeks and nurse for one week. Loners and Kittypets••Loners are usually cats who’ve been exiled from their clan or were kittypets who’ve escaped from their Twoleg homes and became wild. They do not recognize clan boundaries and own no territory. They can, however, help other clans or join clans. Kittypets can only live in their Twoleg homes and visit only the territory their home is located in. They can escape and become loners or join clans.

Staff••
- Accept bios – Read through the biographies to make sure they follow the basic rules of Warriors. Then, please add the character’s name to the Cats of the Members thread.
- Advertise – Try to post at least a few advertisements every other week.
- Attract members to the site – Talk to guests in the cbox, and let them know how exciting it is to RP here! Make them feel welcome. After all, this is a great and fun place for people to relieve themselves of stress and enjoy the Warriors series!
- Enforce the rules - With warnings first, then a few days-long bannings. But before banning, please make a post in the Staff board so all staff members can keep track.
- Keep members – Make sure that members are never bored at all. Chat on the cbox, discuss potential plots, etc.
Leaders••
- Accept bios – Read through the biographies to make sure they follow the basic rules of Warriors. Then, please add the character’s name to the Cats of the Members thread.
- Assign mentors – Whenever an apprentice’s bio is accepted, start pming or asking people if their Warriors would like an apprentice. Then hold the ceremony (check the Warriors wikia for ceremonies) in your Clan’s Meetings board in RP format or whatever! Also, please let me know so I can add the link to the Clan stats.
- Deputy – When selecting a deputy, base your choice on their RPing skills, their character’s personality, their own personality, and their activeness. You're allowed to hand-pick or hold auditions for this position. Realize that they could be the next staff member.
- Plan battles – Spice up our plot with sudden stealing of other Clans’ lands! Go crazy with it and have fun!
- Post in Gatherings – Next one is on April 15th. There will be a separate thread posted in the Staff board regarding the Gathering and the changes to it during the first week of April.
Deputies••
- Have patrols – Each month you are required to hold at least 1 border patrol and 1 hunting patrol. Select who to accompany you by posting the list in the Meetings board. Please also pm me the link so I can add this to the Clan stats as well.
- Post in Gatherings for leaders – Only if the current leader is unable to. Next one is on April 15th. There will be a separate thread posted in the Staff board regarding the Gathering and the changes to it during the first week of April, which you will be able to view if the leader can’t go.
Medicine Cats••
- Have visions and dreams – As a Medicine cat or apprentice, you will constantly have visions and dreams from StarClan. Incorporate them into your posts as much as possible!
- Know your herbs – Please familiarize yourself with all the herbs found in the Warriors series. Know their usages and what they look like so you can teach them to your apprentice!
- Post in the Moonpool – Your cat must visit the Moonpool with the other cats once a month. Next is on April 4th. There will be a thread in the Updates board regarding this during the last week of March.
Mentors••
- Assessment – When you feel your apprentice is ready to become a Warrior (pm them first please!), let the leader of the Clan know so they can post their Warrior’s ceremony.
- Ceremony – You’ll need to post in your apprentice’s apprenticeship ceremony using Rp format or whatever! Make them feel welcome and such.
- Training – You must post at least 1 battle training thread and 1 hunting thread with your apprentice
