Code of Conduct
Group Rules
Strike System
Beatus uses a three-strike system. Strike one will be a warning from an admin, strike two will be a formal warning and can come with a temporary ban, strike three will result in expulsion and banning from the group.
Strikes can be appealed, but only by speaking with an admin on the matter.
In cases of proven harassment/bullying, the strike system can, and will, be by-passed. Resulting in an immediate ban, that cannot be appealed.
General Group Rules
Be respectful! Beatus is a no-judgment zone, so treat those around you in the same manner you wish to be treated.
If you own a Beatus, you must be a member of the group
Do not threaten or harass other members, this includes backhanded compliments, singling members out in journals, naming and shaming, name-calling, begging, or abuse. This list is not exhaustive. - If this is happening to you, please get in contact with admins AS SOON as you can!
Absolutely no theft within Beatus. This includes, but by no means limited to; art, designs, payments, storylines, stock, etc.
Imports may not be uploaded to your own gallery. Beatus is NOT a free to create breed
This means that Beatus starters cannot be made by anyone other than official admins and designers
Make your own Beatus(if you order a custom, you do have the option to design yourself)
You may not create adopts that are either full or partial Beatus
You may not breed two Beatus without owner permission and a note to the group
For crossbreeding(breeding Beatus outside of the group) you must notify the group if it’s a stallion, and send a note to the group for genos if it’s a mare
All names and personalities must be kept in the PG-13 range, on the ref. All other art/lit pieces MUST be tagged for mature content
Do not block any of the admins on dA or Discord, we need to be able to contact you and you need to be able to see what we say
If your account is inactive for a year or more, the group may reclaim your Beatus without warning. We generally do try and reach out first, though
Ownership
To do anything with a Beatus, your name must be on the owner tag(Owner: @/)
When transferring, include a link to the Beatus and who you’re transferring them to
Once sent and processed, the owner tag will be changed
Breeder/stable prefixes MUST be kept unless you have permission to remove it
When selling, please be courteous and mention(@/) the designer
Our transfer thread is located here.
Breeding
A Beatus’ WBC must be completed in order to be bred
Sterilizing your horse is permanent and irreversible. Though, you may ‘freeze’ slots akin to freezing sperm and eggs in real life
If a geno is not designed in 6 months, the ID will be reclaimed and slots will be nulled
If the sender is different from either/both of the parent owners, the parent owners will have the chance to claim the foal
More information about breeding can be found here.
Deceasing
Deceasing is permanent and irreversible, deceasing should not be done on a whim.
Please be sure contact any slot holders before you send your decease message. This is considered common courtesy, and we ask for this proof that you contacted them before deceasing as a final measure to be sure you know deceasing is final.
Your Beatus will not be marked as deceased as any kind of punishment
Only the MARKED owner may request for a Beatus to be deceased
To decease, check our deceasing thread.
Slot holders will have 30 days to use a slot after a Beatus has been deceased
Our deceasing thread is found here.
