In order to create a pack you must...
For What's Stated Above: If you buy your own category for your pack, you can make many different topics about your pack not just one.
You can buy your own board at the Treat Shop, this can be for your pack as you only get one free one for your territory if requested. You can also buy a board just for your pack inside join a pack. If your pack gets destroyed or taken over then the board will be deleted and the topics inside will be moved to the Extinct Packs. So I suggest writing your pack's name in the topics. If your pack has a new leader, then it stays where it is until the pack is no more. You can even buy a board at the shop to add to your territory, with little to no requirements except the currency needed and perhaps members. You can also buy a board and place all your territory inside a board just for your pack, it can be titled by your pack's name or some catchy catch phrase for your pack, you can even title it what you call your selves ex: The Watch Dogs(not in use).
When you make a joining thread for your pack, make sure you post it click here. If accepted it will be moved to the "Join A Pack" Category.
Please state in your thread that you are planning to buy a board for your pack to have and we will cut you some slack. You won't have to add everything from what's needed except the joining code, history, plot, acceptance, temperament, and ranks with members listed with them.
I do expect you to have responsibility over your pack, if you don't stay active and keep up with your joining members and adding them to the ranks in your joining thread you may be revoked your leadership and someone else takes over. If your on E.F.A state it on your joining thread and put someone in charge of your pack while your gone.
The staff may help you out and add members to your rank if you are on E.F.A
PM Me if you don't get something or have any questions!
- Be a member of this site of course, and create the pack with your main character or another active character. You must also have at least 30 posts.
- Have at least four members(including yourself) interested in joining your pack. If you make it and they don't join, deleted. So make sure they will join your pack. These are the founding members of your pack. So they are automatically accepted as "part of the pack". If they want to join as a loner, then those do not count as the 4.
- Your pack cannot take over a whole side of a island. Ex: The coastlines, South, North, East, & West. This is a very large portion of the island. The only way your pack can take over a whole side of an island is if the pack have over 300 members and takes out each pack in that portion of the island. If your planning on doing so please pm me so I can know what your planning on doing and give you advice, as well as what not to do and what to do. I will not help you take over a pack, unless my rp character(Balto) agrees so your character must come meet mine in rp.
- You cannot have another character who is of high rank, then decide to make a pack. That other character has to be killed off before the claiming thread is made for your pack.
- You should have your pack name already, ranks, and other thing for your pack planned out in advanced. If you decide to make a pack and take 4 weeks to make your joining thread, that's too much time. A joining thread will be deleted if not finished in 2 1/2 weeks. You will be notified before and when your thread turns one week, then 2 weeks.
- No copy cat is going to happen here, your pack must be original. Your ranks can be the same as another pack, but at least two have to be changed. If you need help thinking of a rank name, ask me or another staff member.
- Your pack cannot have a whole board to it's self, ex: The Light House, Fair Grounds, Boat Dock, etc. Also a pack cannot claim a store, it can have it's camp near the store, but it's supplies belongs to all dogs and all packs. The only way a pack can have a whole board to it's self is if it has 100 members in it's pack. Notify me when this goal is reached.
- You can request a board inside a board for your pack. Simply ask me or another admin, and please have details. And a board picked out.
- Please be specific about what classes your members have to take in order to gain a rank, as well as how much. A good limit would be intermediate classes, have your pack take classes and once they pass the intermediate class they can become the rank they want or what rank suits them.
- Your joining thread must contain all the information about your pack. It should include but not limited to the following:
Ranks- What is the ranking system you use? As well as the members of each rank.
Rituals & Ceremonies- If your pack has rituals or ceremonies, then explain them. No one is allowed to steal a ritual or ceremony but they can be similar in another pack but not be the exact thing as the other pack. Ex: Like on the Warrior Cat series (if you read that), when a leader, deputy, and newly appointed warriors have ceremonies and rituals as well as the medicine cat ceremony and the rituals they did, going to the moonstone to talk to the spirits both leader and medicine cat did this. (You can do this as well)
How Many Classes & The lowest Class you can take and become a member- Example; Beginner, Intermediate, or Advance training to become an official rank.
How many classes is needed to become that rank? Example; Two Classes For The Fighting Course (so they have to take beginners and intermediate to become the rank).
Rules- Lay down the law. What is allowed and what is not allowed in your pack? (No two rules, from two different packs, should be alike)
Territory- Where is your pack planning to make it's home? Be specific and by all means do add a link to your pack's territory. Although you do not need to do so.
The Founding Members- These dogs are the founding fathers of the pack. Without them the pack wouldn't even exist, usually these members have higher rank and respect. There should be four, including the leader(s) him or her self(selves).
Joining Code- How is someone going to join if your pack doesn't have a joining code? make it simple, it's not supposed to be a mini bio guys.
History & Pack Temperament- Explain how this pack came to be, it doesn't have to be exciting, but don't make it super boring. What is the ideal temperament that your pack is looking for in recruits and what temperament is the pack like? (If your pack is neutral-bad then wright that)
Plot- Does your pack have a plot? If so write it but you don't have to spoil everything.
Acceptance- What is your pack looking for in it's members? Do they have to be all male or all female? Do they have to be all white or all black? Do they have to be a certain breed? Are only mixes or mutts allowed? Are only pure breeds allowed? Do they have to be good or evil? Is your pack only looking for big or small dog or perhaps the mediums? Does your pack allow lower ranks to mate?
