Rules

Three Strikes and You're Out (ALL GROUPS)

Any
rules broken depending on the level of severity will earn 1.) 3
warnings (2-wk suspensions in cases of severe rules) 2.) 2-wk
suspensions (1month with severe rules) 3.) 1-yr bans (3rd ban final)

The Basic Stuff:

-Type coherently. Good English skills are not required in order to participate in this community, and we understand that not everyone will be able to type as well as they'd like. However, poor typing is not acceptable if the reason is laziness.



-Avoid swearing/vulgarity/sexual content. We have no language filter for a reason, but please make sure to ask yourself before you use a swear word or vulgar topic, "Does this need to be here?" Most of the time the answer will be "No."



-No porn. Pornographic content is not allowed to be posted, whether directly, as stickers, or as links. Any foulmouthed, excessively violent, or tastefully nude/sexual links must have a sufficiently descriptive warning included. Remember that sometimes pornographic stickers are stealthily added to otherwise-clean packs, so please use discretion when clicking other people's packs, or choosing your own packs.



-Some darker themes in art, such as mental illness, self-harm, suicide etc. are encouraged as long as they have no gore, or extremely graphic imagery (as in Saw-styled) in it, as we hope to break the stigma around mental illness as well in this community. With that said, any darker themed images, but be shared by link with a trigger warning for the sake of others who struggle with mental illness etc. If you’re unsure about whether or not what you are sharing is okay for this group, share it with Ari privately and she’ll let you know.



-Try to avoid posting more than 3 pictures at a time to cut down on spam. If you are sharing photos of a convention or other event we encourage you to link to an album. 

The Serious Stuff:

-This group is a refuge for Christians interested in the anthropomorphic arts and those struggling with mental illness, selfharm, addictions, and suicide. This is a place of celebration, encouragement, edification, and a place where Christ is glorified.



-Membership is open to anybody who supports anthro arts (regardless of whether they call themselves "furry" or not) and holds to the historic truths of the Apostolic and Nicene Creeds (regardless of whether they call themselves Protestant, Catholic, or Orthodox).



-This group recognizes that God loves the world (John 3:16) and that those who call themselves Christ-followers are called to live holy lives different from how the world defines success and happiness (1 Peter 1:13-16).



-With that in mind, we respectfully ask that all members realize that this group supports and promotes sexual abstinence outside of marriage and that Christian marriage is defined as being between one man and one woman in dedicated monogamy (1 Corinthians 7:1-16) and that we are to seek God's help and the support and accountability of our brothers and sisters in Christ when dealing with self-defeating or self-destruct
