I've noticed that when a lot of people join, I get many of the same types of questions. Please glance through here to see if your question has already been asked before sending one of the mods a PM, because chances are, it's answered in here.
Q. How do I create a character?
A. You can create a character by clicking on the clan board that you'd like your character to be in. Once there, you'll see a sub-board entitled "Cats of ___Clan" ___ being whatever clan you've clicked on. Click on this board and read the first post, which has a form for creating a character and instructions on how to do so.
Or, if you'd just like a quick link:
make a PineClan cat
make a SandClan cat
make a JaggedClan cat
make a SnowClan cat
make a Loner/Rogue/Kittypet
or, if you wish,
make a Bjorn bear
Q. Can I be the [med cat/deputy/med cat apprentice] of this clan?
A. These are not positions that just fly into your paws. To be a med cat, you must fill out a form when there is an opening and hope you're accepted. Leaders choose deputies from cats being role played, just as Med Cats choose their apprentices in the same way. If you're interested in such positions, at least PM the person actually playing the Med Cat or Leader instead of me, as it's not my decision to make.
Q. How can I join StarClan?
A. You join StarClan when one of your cats dies. I'm sorry, but you can't just decide out of the blue that you want a StarClan cat and create one, unless you are some sort of Mod that needs in on the plots and prophecies of StarClan.
Q. Can I be a mod then?
A. Not unless you're a leader or have been around for a long time and would like to be one. Mods have responsibilities, such as cleaning up boards and accepting cat applications. They don't just get to hang around StarClan and feel powerful.
Q. Wait--I just created an account, how come I can't post?
A. To be able to use your account and post on member-only boards WoI, you need to fill out a form at the Application Desk. Once you fill it out, one of the staff members will look it over. As long as you're a decent writer and are capable of writing in a literate manner, your application will be accepted, and your account will be activated. Don't be afraid to apply! We love new members! ^w^
Q. How do I post YouTube videos?
A. The article here explains it all ;)
Q. What are icicles and how can I get them?
A. Icicles are the WoI currency. You can use them to buy things from people's shops such as graphics and services such as icicle loans and character bio help.
Every new, activated account will have =1000 icicles added to it from the start, and every month, each user gets a "salary" of =500 icicles. There's a whole article on how one can obtain additional icicles here. Also, nearly every competition on the site, winners can gain icicles from, so be sure to enter! x3
If I notice any other questions that occur frequently, I'll post them here. Please don't ask your questions here, rather, PM the correct Mod or user, or ask it on the Question & Answer board.
