Lingo
« on: December 26, 2015, 03:05:07 am »
I didn't know if i should put this in game help or forum help but it applies to both. I'm new and as I've been playing the game and been on the forum, they're are a lot of abbreviation, acronyms and strange words the members use that i have no idea what they mean (like RPSR and floof). If someone could make a list of the common lingo or something that would be awesome. :)

I've noticed a lot of people asking about the Floof-o-Meter, what it is, and what it does. I've decided to make this guide explaining as much as I can about it. Feel free to correct me on any of this or add on more information!



What is the Floof-o-Meter?

The Floof-o-Meter is a form of karma on the forum. Floofs/Nuzzles do not effect anything in-game or on the forum whatsoever!

Why and how do I 'floof/nuzzle' someone?

You can floof someone for any reason! They are usually given to someone who has helped you with a problem, someone who is overall helpful and kind towards the community, or someone who has made some sort of creation you like.

In order to nuzzle/floof someone, you must first have at least 25 posts on the forum. Just find their miniprofile from a post they have made, and click "Nuzzle".

(Just using my second account for an example!)



Here's an example of a post.



The "Floof-o-Meter" lists how many floofs you have received. Clicking "Nuzzle" will give the user another floof. You cannot floof yourself and can only floof the same person once within 24 hours.

Can floofs be taken away/why do some users have negative floofs?

I was not around while this was still a thing, so correct me on anything if needed! A while ago, you could either 'bite' or 'nuzzle' someone. Biting took away floofs, and nuzzling added floofs. This feature was removed in order to promote positive behavior. Some users with lots of 'bites' left the forum during that time and still have a large amount of negative floofs.



Hope this helps make the Floof-o-Meter a little clearer! I'm tired of saying 'floof' so much throughout this tutorial haha. If anyone asks about the Floof-o-Meter, feel free to send them to this post!
And for abbreviations

RPSR: Roleplay sample required (a roleplay sample is a passage of role-play that you send to a group that wants its members at a certain literacy requirement.

a floof is a form of currency. I also call my feral heart peers floofs. :3
