Group Rules
Rules are the building foundation to anything when you think about it and we take them very seriously. We expect everyone to glance over these rules once or twice and follow them, please! If any changes are made to the rules a notification journal will be posted in the group and on the website so everyone is aware and you can’t say you didn’t know!
-
No provocative, rousing, stirring insults will be made by a member against another member. Racism, intolerance, homophobia and things of that nature will not be tolerated. We want to keep the group a safe and fun place for our members! Personal profiles and personal notes is something that we cannot control, use the block button! Note: It’s perfectly okay for your character to make these kinds of remarks as it's gameplay.
-
Do NOT advertise on WorldOfTerra’s front homepage about your group/affiliation request, note us instead please! While talking about other groups you’re in is fine, please do not outright advertise another group.
-
Please understand that our admins are human just like you and have a real life to attend to. We can’t always get back to your note/question right away (although we will try our hardest!). Please wait for a response and if a week has passed please kindly remind us! If there’s a problem between you and another member explain your problem (through note) and we’ll handle it in a way we think is the most appropriate for both members of the group. If you do not like the decision please don't pester the admins to get the outcome you want.
-
We will not tolerate any kind of tracing of another artist’s work. However linearts are perfectly acceptable.
-
Do not “God Mode” when you’re playing with your character with another member’s character. An example could include trying to control someone else’s character that is not your own to act or feel a certain way without the other members permission, or killing another member’s character off without their permission.
-
We do not allow “JoeShmo” characters. Please put time and effort into your characters appearance and background information, give them some purpose ! After all it will be the character you’re playing with ! We would also appreciate it if your character is not "perfect" and has more then one flaw in his/her personality or history.
-
We give you the opportunity to play and build your character exactly how you want if you’re in a RP with another member, or even artwork that has sexually explicit content/graphic violence in it we ask that you PLEASE tag it under mature content as we have all ages present in the group, and some members just don’t want to see that stuff. Tag it or keep it private please.
-
We do not encourage discrimination based on artistic abilities, you do not have to be the best equine artist that ever walked the Earth. Positive feedback and encouragement is appreciated!
-
If your character(s) have died it is a final thing your character cannot be resurrected unless under special circumstances. You must let an admin know about your character(s) death so he/she can be added to the deceased list.
-
UPDATED RULE 05/23/17- Auctions, adoptables, commissions, YHH, etc may only be submitted to the group if the intent is specifically for WOT only. Any designs that are being sold must specifically be for WOT, not advertised elsewhere.

We give you the opportunity to play and build your character exactly how you want. If you’re in a RP with another member, or even artwork that has sexually explicit content and/or excessive graphic violence in it we ask that you PLEASE tag it under mature content as we have all ages present in the group, and some members just don’t want to see that stuff. Tag it or keep it private please. If you keep it private, note that you will NOT receive any XP or PC for it.
-
KEEP TRACK OF YOUR XP AND PC THE BEST THAT YOU CAN. If you are unsure of the total amount of XP and PC you should have please not an admin and one of us will gladly help you!
-
If you try and buy anything from any shop without having proper amounts of PC or XP ( if item requires specific XP access ) you will be given a warning, and a strike.
-
Please try to be somewhat literate when it comes to writing stories, participating in RP's and Events! We are not asking for grammatical masters here, but you should generally be able to write a paragraph, or two, without a ton of mistakes in it.
-
Killing off another member's character(s) without their permission is absolutely unacceptable! All deaths involving another member's character(s) must be pre-planned and agreed upon by both members participating.
-
Do not “God Mode” when you’re playing with your character with another member’s character. An example could include trying to control someone else’s character that is not your own to act or feel a certain way without the other members permission, or killing another member’s character off without their permission.
-
All current acceptable RP uses are Google Docs, Deviantart Notes, Skype, if you are using something else to RP with another member, please run it by us first.
-
If you sign up for any event ( holiday event, WOT Secret Santa, Chapters, etc ) Please plan to be active in them, it is not fair if you have a part in a chapter event and you're not there for it when another member could have taken that plot.
