10. Read the bias policy please!
Bias Policy!Here at Deerchies, we are very serious and strict about people being biased towards others. This is here to keep everything fair and keep away from drama. We in no way are saying that you are biased, but this is here to keep biased actions from happening.
(You do not have to read this but it is helpful if you do!)
1. It is pretty easy to tell if you are being biased. So don't try it.
2. Judges must choose the form that they think deserved to win, not their friend.
!Disclaimer! If the form that deserved to win is one of your friends, that is okay!3. If you are seen being biased we have the right to fire you from the species staff. We won't fire you right away, but you will need a pretty good argument! (and don't think that we don't like you, because we do!)
(Remember, we are not implying that you are biased! We just want to keep things fair for everyone!)
