Winter MYO Event occurring until February 14th!

xxxxThe vast, lonely, empty stretches of space. Who knows what treasures, what horrors, what mysteries lie in the spaces between the stars.

xxxxSocial, smart, and adaptable, Aktego were originally created at the dawn of the space age to keep humans company in the cold long stretches of empty space. With their soft fur, brilliant and varied color patterns, and silly antics, they kept travelers company and quickly grew to be a popular and coveted companion of humanity, quickly traveling across the stars.

xxxxEARTHRISE is a literal worldbuilding game in which you are guided along creating your own worlds, cultures, and empires throughout the vast emptiness of space, and only the stars are your limit.

Rules

1. All Chickensmoothie rules apply, both on site and off-site.

2. Be kind and respectful to all staff and members. Please be patient when it comes to judging adopts, making nursery batches, etc, this is a (mostly) free community and real life takes priority. Users found to be consistently harassing people may receive a warning.


2a. Users must remain respectful when discussing age, race, ethnicity, nationality, culture, religion, mental health, gender identity, sexual orientation, or disability.

2b. If it has been longer than a month and you're owed work or a competition has gone unjudged, please dm myself (@Archaeopteryx) or my husband (@HarpyHarpy) and we'll get things sorted out for you.
3. All users that have been on CS for longer than three months and have at least 75 posts are entitled to one free founder. You are allowed and welcome to apply for adopts, customs, auctions, events, etc. even without a founder, and this offer does not expire until you receive your founder.

4. Personal storages may be hosted both on and off-site. If you wish to own multiple groups, please have them listed under a singular hub so we can better link to it on the archives.

5. Freely obtained EARTHRISE adopts are not permitted to be resold or traded outside of species. Users found to be doing so consistently will be permanently banned from EARTHRISE.

6. To encourage worldbuilding and character building, each player starts with a certain amount of slots (five), and may increase their slot number via leveling up. Players found to be over that limit have a grace period of one month to reach the appropriate level, after which the most recently acquired free adopts will be confiscated and readopted to the greater community. Players found to be dodging this limit via only acquiring paid for adopts may have access to customs and auctions removed. A longer grace period may be allowed due to extenuating circumstances.

xxxxUpon hire, staff are given 20 tidbits, plus five for every individual free aktego made. Artists and guest artists are also permitted to make themselves a single custom once a month, and unlimited nursery pairings, provided at least a single adopt, nursery batch, or founder is made within that time period.

Guest artists are given a temporary artist position for up to two months. Guest artists are not allowed to create auctions or sell customs, and are encouraged (but not required) to request help on aktego phenotypes, and may be requested to change designs if they don't meet EARTHRISE genotype guidelines. Full-time artists will be hired, on occasion, from previous guest artists.

xxxxFull-time staff are also allowed (and encouraged) to set up auctions and customs, and are permitted to create a custom aktego for themselves (or as a gift to others) with any mutation after three months of activity are completed.

xxxxWhile staff are not required or expected to be active every month, an extended absence and lack of communication may lead to being let go from the team.
