A D O P T S

Adopts are unique character designs

that people draw and trade/sell around.

Adoptables aren't lent to more than one

member unless they intend to share. An

adopt is unique, and each has a rightful

owner(s). Giving an adopt to somebody

means the ownership and rights to that

adopt is given to whoever you've lent it

to, and it's not yours to control after.

(Granting several s ownership to

the same adopt without asking if they'll

be splitting ownership is a scam.)

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ SB: Starting Bid

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ MI: Minimum increase

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ AB: Autobuy

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ Example:

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ SB: 100 AC

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ MI: 10 AC

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ AB: 900 AC

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ If I'm the first to bid on a post,

        I have to place the SB! So, I'll simply

       comment "SB" or "100 AC." I cannot,

       however, do "97 AC" as it's lower than

       the SB the seller set. I could go above

       and say "120 AC" though!

       Now! What if another member has

       called the SB or if there's a chain of

       bids starting? Notice the Minimum

       Increase being set as "10." If a

       bid 200 AC, and if I want to keep on

       bidding, then I have to reply to them

       and bid at least "210" or higher. Not

       "207" since that's lower than the MI.

       Let's say the bidding is up to 700 AC

       and I really want to win this auction.

       Notice the Autobuy is 900 AC. I can

       jump to "900 AC" or call an "AB" so I

       can automatically win! (Some s

       don't place an AB though.)

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ Species in the adopt world

       are unique types of creatures that

       an OC can be. You can make your

       own unique species and add their

       reference sheets! Examples.

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ Open Species: A unique

       species that is free for everyone

       to make OCs off of.

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ Closed Species: A unique

       species that can only be used by

       the creator or those they permit

       to use them.

       :honey_pot: ˚. ❥ MYO: Make Your Own

       If you see a hosting an MYO

       event, its prizes include someone

       scoring a MYO ticket for the host's

       closed species. If you win an MYO

       ticket, you may create an OC from

       their unique species.
