Terms of Service & Rules
|
The purpose of these Terms is to make you, the user, aware of the laws applicable to accessing this site.
A user, or player, is defined as someone who created an account for Felisfire.com. You are required to have read and understood these Terms, failure to comply with them will prohibit you from using or
accessing Felisfire.com. If you disagree or do not understand these terms, do not access the Felisfire.com website.
Hereafter, "FELIS" refers to Felisfire.com and its administration and staff. When you access this site, you are bound to comply with these Terms of Service. It is your responsibility to follow them. In failing to do so, you risk being temporarily or permanently banned from the site. You are also responsible for following the local laws of your state. To abide by all COPPA laws, we have disabled registration to anyone under the age of 13. We therefore, do not collect personal information from children under 13. Site RulesThe ability to share screenshots from Felisfire newsposts, forums, or other message areas on other sites are permitted, provided all associated names are blurred out and unable to be read by the viewers. The Owner and the Programmers are the exception to this rule, and their names may be visible. As a user you, or your legal guardian(s), give FELIS the rights to use any written works, art, ideas and suggestions that you have submitted or uploaded to this site that are related to FELIS. This includes any materials, data or games you may submit. This is a non-verbal, non-reversible and exclusive right to use anything you have submitted related to FELIS in any way we see fit. We have a right to modify, republish, or transmit any of your submissions to Felisfire.com. Any and all information received becomes the automatic property of the owner at FELIS, including any art, written works, coding and other information related based on or related to FELIS. When you submit any information, written work, materials or any of the aforementioned things, you are acknowledging that you are the rightful owner of it and thereby take all responsibility for it. Note that two or more players who send all of their income contents of accounts, including but not limited to free promotional items, event items, or "daily" game items, will be considered "multiple accounts." Users may not ask their friends, family, or other individuals to sign up solely to gain the wealth from the friend's account. While gifting is allowed and encouraged, remember that all accounts should be playing for their sake, and not to make a single account rich. Each user is allowed to 'start over' their account. A start over allows the user to begin playing again as though you were a new user. This means that all the user's game assets will be taken from them, and the user will only retain their account ID number. The user will in essence become a new player again. Users are allowed to start over only once. If an account is shared between two people, this is still considered to be one account. Be aware that in sharing a single account, the actions of both players are held equally responsible for all aspects involving said account. It does not matter if the other player(s) sharing this account are aware of the rules being broken, the punishment will still apply to the dual account the same as a single player account, regardless of whether or not the other person knew the rules had been broken or not. Those users who wish to share accounts must go through the proper channels to do so. This includes the creation of individual accounts prior to sharing an account and informing Felisfire's staff of this partnership. No one under the age of 13 is allowed to have an account on Felisfire. Those who are under the age limit will have their accounts banned until they reached 13. Users under the age of 18 must make their parental or guardian units aware of the Felisfire.com Terms of Service and must obtain parental permission to access the site. Felisfire.com is not a children's site. While we allow younger users to play on the site, it is with the expectation that they and their parents have read our Terms of Service and understand it. This site is geared towards a more mature audience, and it fosters mature, adult discussions as well as allowing creativity of character. Users under the age of 18 are to be aware that any content on the site labeled as [M] is not meant to be accessed by users under the age of 18. If a parent discovers their minor on Felisfire.com and would like the child's account disabled, the parent is welcome to email the site owner theofficialfelisfire@gmail.com and the request will be fulfilled. Due to allowing minors access to Felisfire.com, any suspicion regarding a sexual predator is to be immediately reported to the administration. This includes any form of sexual harassment or innuendo directed towards a minor, or a user seeking to gain personal information about a minor, be it from that minor or through another user. Anyone under serious suspicion of being a sexual predator will have their IP permanently banned and a report made to their ISP. Users are expected to conduct themselves in a mature fashion at all times. Excessive rudeness or a hurtful, ridiculing attitude toward any player (user or staff), site feature, or site amenity will not be tolerated. When discussing a sensitive topic (such as religion, politics, sexuality, etc.), users must remember to remain respectful and should keep any criticism aimed at the issue instead of each other. Voicing dislike for a political/religious figure or group is one thing; however, personal attacks and insults toward other FELIS members is another. While everyone is allowed to convey their opinions, they must be expressed in a way that does not seek to insult or berate, but rather to improve or calmly discuss the topic at hand. Users utilizing the "Rants" forum should consider taking a step back and allow their thoughts to settle before posting potentially inflammatory material to ensure they are handling the topic appropriately. The following topics are considered to be mature [M]: politics, religion, sex, sexual innuendo or jokes, artistic nudity, sexuality, self harm or other such behavior or thoughts and excessive swearing. These topics are to be marked with [M] so that any user under the age of 18 should know full well that they are meant for mature audiences, and those not interested in such topics can know not to view them. These discussions may not be explicit in any way. Sexual harassment or sexual behavior geared towards another player will result in immediate removal of the topic and a warning given to the person or persons involved. This also extends to private messages, and users should report such matters to the administration so that they may take immediate action. Permanent ban will result if this behavior continues. These discussions are meant to allow freedom of speech within limitations for our more mature users. They are to be read and participated in at the user's discretion. No user may post any material that is sexually explicit or that is illegal in any way on Felisfire.com. This includes any and all areas of the site, such as forums, private messages, pet pages and user profiles. Any and all forms of pornography, be they written or visual, are strictly prohibited. This includes bestiality and any works that exhibit child sexuality or the sexual relationship of a child with an adult. Explicit swearing or vulgarity of any form will not be tolerated, as it is uncalled for in any given situation. The following topics are forbidden to be discussed on Felisfire.com, be it via the forums, PMs, chat speak, or any other form of communication on the site: pornography, pedophilia, cult creation, or the killing or harm of another person, be it another user or a person not associated with FELIS. The state of Michigan, where the server is located, forbids the discussion of these topics, and as such, anyone found doing so will risk banning of either their account or IP from the site. While we allow freedom of speech within limitations, we must abide by the server location’s state laws, and therefore request that any and all users do the same. If you have other questions concerning the state laws of Michigan, please refer to this site. Felisfire.com is a private website.

All glitches or bugs that allow a user to unlawfully gain energy, orbs, FELIS, and items must be reported directly to the administration through Bug Reports and not listed in the forums.

Any user found to be using a disproportionate amount of site resources compared to other active, online users may be banned by FELIS Administration.
