NEW MODS
Hello everyone! We’ve got some very exciting news to share with you, it’s time to Welcome our new Mods as an official part the Furvilla Staff!

Beta Content Rule
Another thing before we let you go, a new rule has been added to the Global Rules section regarding Beta Content so please go and give that a read. There is also a corresponding infraction for this rule addition. Be sure you are all up to date on the Furvilla Site Rules and TOS as we head into the Site’s Grand Opening.
This new rule will be going into effect at launch:
Discussion of, reposting of forum content, or screenshots about Beta activity is strictly forbidden by the TOS. Distribution of this information only serves to incite drama and will not be permitted. Exceptions to this rule are any remade threads for sales, role plays, knowledge base & guides, and site resources.
Edit: Moving farther into this, this rule is mainly to avoid reinstating all the drama and fighting from the Beta. Signatures stating that you were a Beta tester are fine. With the new MOD team coming in, I've adjusted how I want to go forward; less infractions for things we can talk to you first on, more community interaction, which hopefully will bring the community together more. Not literally everything from Beta is banned. If you're unsure about if a signature or screenshot you have will be okay, by all means, ask a MOD; Ask me. I dont mind, and neither do they. We're here to be a part of the Community.
Restock Change
And last but not least, all Container Items and Basic Weapons/Shields have been removed from Restock and returned to their original unlimited stock status.

@Admin-Deinmaar
pm'd!
Chaos
Would you mind PMing me the screenshot? I can let you know
thank you mods for making the containers have unlimited stock again! also welcome new mods! hope you enjoy furvilla shenanigans!
@Admin-Deinmaar ooohh I understand, thank you
i took a screenshot of a single harmless comment i made in an unpopular opinion thread about myself because i thought it was funny and wanted to immortalize it in my signature before its erased forever
would this be an infraction? I know it says 'dont repost beta content TO incite drama' but the larger summary makes it sound more like we shouldn't do it at all
Now
What I want avoid is bringing up old issues about the changes. I understand that a lot of people don't like what was changed, but it's probably best to avoid talking about pre-changes. This will be something we go over together to decide if it breaks the rules or not, and I definitely want to move away from jumping straight to infractions so often. PMs will most likely be utilized more often as we go forward outside of obvious rule breaking.
A new mod called Magpie? o.
Well that might get a little confusing.
@Admin-Deinmaar so is it alright for someone to talk about things that are site content related that were changed before the site opened, such as the addition of site features, or is that specifically what's excluded? Is it like, specifically complaining about how the site used to function?
I wasn't in the forums enough to know about any specific drama.
The beta activity rule is so unnecessary, smh.
But, nice to see the containers are unlimited again, and welcome to the new mods.
Welcome new mods!!
And I'm glad for the new rule, there is no sense in bringing up old drama and bitterness from beta!
