Site Allegiances
updates and announcements
1. In order to maintain transparency and accountability, the staff team has released a spreadsheet detailing the duties split between the team. This list is not exhaustive, but it is meant to give an idea of how responsibilities are handled by each member. 2. Staff is currently undergoing a massive internal restructuring of systems and processes! You can follow the recent announcement to learn more about the current status of this restructure. 3. The Sitewide is officially over and all plots are allowed to resume! 4. As a result of misuse of anonymous feedback, Staff has changed how feedback is now being handled on-site. Please check out the new procedures!
quote of the month (submissions)
The quote of the month is designed to display the fun, inspiring, or impactful dialogue that our userbase comes up with. Quotes can be submitted at any time but staff will only select eligible quotes from the month prior to the release of the newsletter. Our goal is to feature different characters from all different clans and various users. Quotes will be selected by staff from the submitted pool and will be shared alongside their origin topic, along with the character name, roleplayer, and context for the quote.
Quotes can be submitted in the form linked. Please feel free to submit multiple quotes during every monthly time period. All submissions are anonymous, so of course you may submit your own as well. If you have a quote you'd like to see included in the quote of the month competition, you can fill out the form!

Kitty's Corner & Behind the ScenesWelcome to the newest newsletter section, Kitty's Corner! Here, Kitty will share a monthly tip or some food for thought, and will share a small peek into the ongoing staff projects! Currently, staff is aiming to give their full attention on three large projects at a time. Kitty's Corner: It's okay to take a break! I know first hand there are about to be a lot of finals upcoming, so it's okay to put WCC to the side if you need to for a couple of weeks! If you're a High Rank, let your fellow HRs know and I know they're more than happy to help where necessary. Don't forget to take a deep breath--you got this! Behind the Scenes: It's been a busy month for the staff team! Here is a preview of what we have been working on. - Staff Internal Restructure: We've said it hundreds of times, but this is perhaps our biggest, most time-consuming project at the moment. We are working on a system that would be an internal code of conduct for all members of the staff team to provide a more consistent level of responses, fairness, and approaches to everything we do on the site.
- Class System: Teased back in December, we are currently working on a Class System to add some flares to our ranks! This rework has been placed on hold until further notice, as Staff is halting major reworks until after our internal system is straightened out.
- Name System Overhaul: Name lovers, rejoice! We are re-evaluating what names are accepted, FINALLY adding our desired suffix list, and changing how we will handle name submissions. Currently, this system is in final review, and should be released very soon!
- Staff Applications: With Grey retiring from the staff team, we have an open spot to fill! Staff applications closed March 30th. With 3 applicants, we will be hosting interviews soon! Keep an eye out for your next staff member!
- Update to FR Limits: Ooooh, romance is in the air! We have changed how Forbidden Romances work and are limited on-site. Now, each user may be part of one forbidden romance at a time. Phase 1 FR's are subject to be revealed/teased by "Plotting" rolls for medicine cats, and updates must be posted to the plotting page!
- Feedback Updates: As posted in a very recent announcement, we have discontinued anonymous surveys. As a replacement, we are now promoting the use of our Comments & Suggestions form, Incident Reports, and following a Conflict Resolution Guide. We encourage you to check out the announcement!
- Rule Tweaks: While major reworks have been put on pause, we are always looking to continue refining our rules! We will be continuing to notify the site about any small edits we make to the site's rules, but our hard-hats are always on!
