Rule Clarifications and MOD Updates
Posted by Mat on 12 Jul 2016, 12:26 pm
We have been consolidating and reviewing a lot of feedback on various rules we have, and are happy to announce that all of the updated rules have been released.
1. The Terms of Service no longer forbids breasts, but instead focuses entirely on nipple exposure. Breasts are now allowed on Painties as well as artwork posted on Furvilla provided they follow the nipple rule. We feel this best represents a SFW environment while also not implying sexualization of people with that body shape.
2. The Terms of Service clarify our position on game asset trading with other browser games. The short answer is, we are fine with trading, however, we would like you to wait until the game is out of beta before doing so.
3. The Code of Conduct now indicates that CSS should not be used to cover or alter game stat information, including hiding or altering your or your villager's stats, or replacing your villager's image with CSS.
4. Our Forum Rules have now been updated to indicate that the phrase 'illegal drugs' refers to United States federal law, as there are discrepancies between the laws of different countries regarding what is an illegal drug, as well as individual states within the US.
5. Finally, after taking in all feedback with Painties and speaking with our Paintie moderators, we have completely revamped the Painties rule page in a way we hope clarifies everything regarding Paintie rules. We have been struggling with the inventive ways that players are creating some Painties, but unfortunately some are created in ways we did not intend for our bases to be used. We hope that this guide clarifies what we consider permissible for the use of our bases and helps clear confusion.
That now covers all the rules that have been changed thanks to your feedback. We also wanted to let you know that moderator applications are now closed. We received over a thousand applications and have hired our team. We do not yet have an ETA on releasing the forums as the moderators are occupied with ironing out issues with Painties. We will provide you an update when we have an idea of when the forums will be ready to re-release.
Last, here are a list of changes that have been implemented since Monday, the majority of them from suggestions e-mailed to us:
- grayed out Change Career button when idle
- destroy unwanted recipes from career page
- removed white gradient on long Private Messages
- Transfer Currency / Transfer Item on user page
- horizontal scrollbar appear in the message box when needed
- view all recipes/their reagents for reference: searching items in the museum now provides a list of reagents (for recipes), or a link to the recipe that crafts the item, or links to all recipes that use the item
- placed a button in the blacksmith career page that straight away takes you to repair requests
- Villagers page indicates which villagers are sick and with what
- item pages now include links to NPC shops if the item stocks there
- Paintie Removal button to strip a Paintie from a villager at the user's request
- the following items can now be used from the inventory on villagers who are not the active villager: medicines, pets, recipes, costumes, species potions, hp potions

The bank is great, if you want to make sure you don't accidentally spend FD when you meant to pay FC.
For instance, a lot of the construction workers offering their services, offer for both FC and FD, and accidentally hitting the wrong button could prove really costly for you.
Placing all your FD in the bank, would ensure you didn't accidentally used it, buying something you thought you paid for with FC.
I think it's just another space for money, like how your storage is separate from your inventory.
I don't think they're going to limit how much money we can have, or put our non-bank money in danger. Right now the only benefit is separating your money, maybe so you don't accidentally spend too much.
I'd like to see daily interest implemented as a small incentive to store money in the bank though.

I'm not sure this will be seen by staff. I'd advise you to write a suggestion to staff using the "contact us" form at the bottom of the page.
You have some great suggestions (and staff certainly has been open to user feedback so far), so it'd be a shame if they never reached staff. :)
Ok so...now we have a bank.
Why do we need a bank? I mean I know some people are excited but.
Why do we need a bank? We have unlimitted space for funds, FD and FC. Are we now going to have less space for money, and need to upgrade our wallet? Are we going to lose money per hour not in the bank?
I mean..I guess people wanted it..but this has litterally added nothing..there is no real reason to use it. And now I'm worried that there will be a reason to force people to use the bank.
Kijame neo has a pretty successful example of the benefits of bank interest that you collect once a day. It wouldn't be a high number, you'd only be making at most an extra 100 FC, maybe a couple thousand at like a million or more.
It wouldn't be breaking anything.
Azzie If the bank has interest we'll be inflated before you know it XD Try playing the lottery instead!
bank should have an intrest rate
but still BANK
THEY MADE A BANK???????
YESYESYEYYES
can you consider PLEASE adding some sort of immediate resubmission to paintie rejections, like a way that we don't have to wait 2-3 days all over again?? especially considering-- i don't know WHAT is going on suddenly-- it seems like every 9 out of 10 painties result in a rejection for entirely pointless reasons while the remaining 1 out of 10 only got in on blind luck.
Also forgot to comment on this, but
"Added a Bank for storing FurCash & FurDollars, which can be found as a link on your inventory page."
