Staff would like to announce that effective immediately, we will no longer be using anonymous forms for surveys on WCC.

Anonymous Surveys were started as a means for honest feedback to be provided to Staff, and while a good portion of our userbase has used it as intended, there has been a trend of misuse. Surveys have been used to harass Staff and HRs, or Anon Comments to speak poorly of others without consequences. All of these violate our code of conduct, which is why we are hopeful the changes below will help to improve our community standards and uphold the rules...

Recently, as admins and staff, we have noticed several cases of multi-accounts on the site. As stated in our basic rules (which all of you should have read), this is against our code as site and it is not allowed in any form or case. Some of these cases have been contacted and others, have not but after proper research we KNOW who is having multiple accounts by now.

PUNISHMENTS:
From today and during the next week, we will be imposing the punishments to said users. As a reminder, the punishments for having more than one account...

This was not an easy decision for us to make (it is always hard to just make a leader step down) but following the site's rules, Leopardstar, Rainyheart's character will be no longer Thunderclan's leader for she has been inactive with no announcement or word for two weeks. It will be considered that he lost all his lives but one during sickness, forcing Marshstorm (the current deputy) to rise as a new leader. The following topics regarding the next deputy's election and Marshstorm's leader ceremony will be done soon after this announcement.
We truly hope Rainyheart can come...

As we have noted in recent announcements and on the Discord, staff has been working on giving the Rank Requirements system a bit of an update. We have asked for user input along the way (you can see some of that here) and after long discussion, we hope you'll be satisfied with the changes that we've made! Without further ado:

Hello people, it's me! I and Suma have been working since we started our adminship to improve the site, trying to listen to everyone's concerns and suggestions! Today, we want to ask you what do you think about an extra character slot which rewards active people who commit themselves with the roleplay in the site (the main idea was suggested here by our former admin, Pika).

In summary, this benefit will be given to those roleplayers who have Tier 5 warriors and prove it via the "Ranks...

In February 2019, former-Staff member and helpful disgruntled Uncle Pikachu created a very helpful survey for the site's members to fill out to help determine the activity levels of the Higher Ranks. The results allowed Staff to ensure that active and qualified users were filling the higher ranks which ultimately shape the WCC roleplay experience. We were very interested in the results, and we decided to implement this for the foreseeable future in April 2019.

Staff will be posting this anonymous Higher Ranks survey once every quarter (January/April/July/October).

Within the past few days, staff has been having a lot of discussion on ranks and rank requirements. We had already been working on simply reformatting and tidying up the threads involving it (partly sparked by this suggestion), but we have received a few different suggestions or comments regarding ranking and requirements recently that we've reviewed and want to address (for example,

We're working on a few different projects and we have just finished one up: the Hunting System update!

We have been working on doing some tidying up around the site. One of our first projects has been to clean up the Ranks System - from formatting to stats to requirements. This announcement does not impact requirements, but please know that we're considering changes to our current ranking system! If you want to be part of that discussion, feel free the check out this announcement...

Hello there, fellow roleplayers. After the events of the site-wide plot and by staff's votation, we've decided that we need more hands in the staff group considering that I and Suma are no longer mods.
Please, welcome our new mod:

They have proven to be an active member in the community both in roleplay and as a user of the site. We hope you can give them a good welcome party ;D And keep an eye on future updates :3

Hello my dearest WCCers,

It should be abundantly clear that despite my 6 year love affair with WCC, I've officially drifted away from this site. I was aware of this, and thus roughly 3 months ago, I appointed two wonderful people to take over as admins of this site. I gave them a trial, the trial being this sitewide plot, which I think we can all agree, they passed with flying colours.

I am confident they will lead the site in a positive direction, and I can officially go into retirement.

Thus, I am pleased to announce, the future of our site is in the VERY capable...

Hello everyone! Recently we have been kicking around the idea of altering when we post Gatherings and Medicine Cat meetings. Currently, we are set up to post Gatherings on the full moon of each month and Medicine Cat Meetings (half-moon meetings) on the half moon. The new proposition is that we post Gatherings on the 1st of each month and half-moon meetings on the 15th of each month.

In addition, we will be adding a time limit to when medicine cats may receive revelations during half-moon meetings regardless of which poll option wins. We plan to do this to minimize paradoxes...

The results allowed Staff to ensure that active and qualified users were filling the higher ranks which ultimately shape the WCC roleplay experience.

Hello everyone!

You may recall that in February, Staff sent out a poll asking for nominations for staff members. Two members (myself included) were added based off of the results, but a month has passed and we on staff have all made the determination that we still need another pair of hands on deck. We used the nominations results from before, and we are proud to present the newest addition to our moderation team:

Hello,

Fill out this survey to nominate a member for staff to consider for the position of moderator!

-Pika

Just to get a good gauge on how much we should be restricting more serious themes and where we should be pushing the site next. Please answer the poll with your real ages.

Don't worry, Staff can't actually see who voted what. We just want to get a good sense of the site userbase.

Please post in this topic by February 5th!


As many of you know, Staff will be enforcing a 3 character limit on WCC in the very near future. What does this mean? That many of us need to kill of a portion of our characters to slim down to meet with the new requirements. In order for Staff to keep track of who is living and who is getting yote into the abyss of death, we're posting this topic that essentially functions like an activity check- but it lets us know ahead of time who is keeping what characters. Please fill out the form below and post in the comments....

Some minor changes to how plot approval is going to be handled. All plot approval requests will go on the newly minted Plotting Boards. Plotting pages is now officially just a board for people to just discuss plots and come up with ideas and garner interest for ideas. Once you've developed a plot that you want to make reality, please go to Inactive Plots. This way, only the current active plots will be in Plotting Boards for people to admire and look at.

MCs still have the prophecy aspect, but will have to go sift through the boards for whatever revelation they got from the magic die....

Link to the completed, currently locked poll can be found here.

A new topic page has been added to all Clan Information sections.

WindClan.

This is a topic for not only leaders/staff, but everyone to keep track of their cat's requirements to rank up. I'd recommend posting for each character in the appropriate sections, and edit your comment as you complete requirements. When you're ready to rank up, PM your Leader or a Staff member. After ranking up, make a new requirements comment for the new rank.

This is specifically for Warriors/MCs. Apprentices and MCAs have to post in ceremony request threads so they do not need...

After reviewing the contents of the initial announcement pertaining to the slotting changes, found here, Staff has decided to move forward on the issue of limitations upon the current number of available slots. This has been the subject of debate within the team for an extended period of time, with both former and current Staff members being called upon to purpose potential ideas, but ultimately we believe this will greatly curb many issues WCC currently faces in regards to active characters, misuse...

With the increasingly absurdly huge clans, cats being created yet never rped beyond bare minimum or not even touched beyond their creations/apprentice ceremonies, staff have come to you, our community to pitch a rather significant change to the status quo.

For the longest time, WCC has had 5 slots, one for each clan, though having one cat in each clan was never truly enforced. This came from the days our site was much smaller in number, with roughly 20 active members on average. As certain clans were neglected and our member base became far more experienced in handling their characters,...
