[/b][/font][/size][/center]Frequently Asked Questions
These are questions that have already been asked and answered by a staff member. If your question is up here, please don't ask it. Your post will be considered spam if you do. Remember to check back here whenever you're unsure if a question you're about to ask has already been answered by someone else. The name is a bit misleading -- it's for questions that have been asked, not questions that are frequently asked.
I will also put up who answered the question with permission.
- One cat per account?
It is one member per account. This question is also answered here. ~Firepaw - How many cats can you have per account?
You may have as many as you can keep up with. This question is also answered here. ~Firepaw - What is the literacy of this site?
This site is literate. That means each post should be at least two paragraphs long. ~Firepaw - Why did someone talk me off when I said "rouge?"
"Rogue" is the correct word. "Rouge" is a totally different word. For more information, go here. ~Firepaw - Why can't medicine cats have mates? Does Erin Hunter have an answer?
Erin Hunter has not specifically stated, but I believe it is because medicine cats have to take care of other kits, and it would weigh them down with kits of their own. ~Firepaw - What do [insert medicinal herb here] do?
Here's a detailed list of all of the herbs and what they do. ~Firepaw - How do I claim a canon character?
Go here and follow the instructions given in the first post. In order to tell if you have gotten the canon character you want, check the first post to see if it is crossed off. ~Firepaw - Why can't we discuss ROMs/emulators?
Because they are illegal. (Though, I don't see why it's so bad to talk about them on a Proboards site...) ~Firepaw - Can I say that I have caught a mouse in my hunting topic?
No. Check out rule 3 in In Character Rules. ~Firepaw - What's with all the weird pairings here on Rewritten? Isn't this site canon?
This site starts out canon but diverges from canon, and the pairings are sure to follow. If you are bothered by any of the pairings here on WR, then please, leave. I don't want people harking on me about the pairings here. ~Firepaw - May I have a cat in more than one place at once?
Yes. Check out rule 11 in the In Character Rules. - Do I have to make an apprentice and work my way up from there?
There is only one site that does that and it's not this one. ~Firepaw - Am I allowed to make a cat that is basically a feline version of myself?
I frankly don't care. d: ~Firepaw - May we use cats that we made here on other sites?
Of course. I don't see why not. They're your characters; Rewritten has no copyright over them. ~Firepaw - May we use other people's characters on other sites?
You'll have to ask the creator of the cat. For me, I would have to say no unless I asked you to do so. ~Firepaw - Can we make characters that aren't cats?
Only if you need to for a plot. Otherwise, no. ~Firepaw - An artist won't do what I ask!
If it has to do with this site, try to check the list of stuff they have to do. If it's for stuff not related to this site, then they have full right to deny your request no matter what the circumstance. ~Firepaw - How many canon characters may we have?
As many as you would like, but I would prefer you didn't get two cats just to pair them up and also give other people a fair chance to claim characters themselves. ~Firepaw - I need an update in my topic!
Be patient. If you need an update and it has been a week since your last one, then you may alert either I or Gray. ~Firepaw - How long is it before a cat gets sent to the adoption center?
If a cat isn't in a topic within two weeks of its creation, it will be put into the adoption center. As well, if its user is banned, it will also be put there. If the user suddenly goes missing for two weeks, then all his/her characters will be put inactive, then up for adoption after a month without excuse. ~Firepaw - In the cat bio field, what do I put for "Parents," "Mentor/Apprentice," "Best Friends," etc? Do I just make them up then kill them off in the history or something?
NO! Don't kill them off. Just make up some names and short descriptions (if you'd like). You don't have to play them; they'll be NPCs. As for Mentor/Apprentice field, you can just leave that blank until your leader assigns you a Mentor/Apprentice. ~Firepaw - I know that a mod has to determine whether or not you catch a mouse, but can you say that your character missed the mouse if he's having an off day or something?
Sure! It's not powerplaying, so I say, of course! ~Firepaw
