That reminds me... you know what I don't get? I don't understand why some Warrior Cat roleplayers use wolf-speak in their RPs. I thought it was wolf-speak... not cat-speak. I have seen some cats refer to each other as "faes" and "brutes", or "wave their banner in the air", "gets up on her pillars", so on and so forth. I haven't read many of the books, but I know for sure that the author DIDN'T use wolf-speak at all. She did use different words to describe different things, such as "she-cat" for a female cat, or "tom" for a male.

The stuff seems to have originated with wolves, hence the name, but it doesn't mean felines should be picked on for using it due to their species. And no, of course the author didn't use wolf-speak! If rpers went off of what authors wrote, there'd only BE correct English!

...maybe groom themselfs(like in WQ)

I used to hate it when the wolves would do that. Go afk a second and when you return, the thing's licking its butt. xP

Know what would be nice, some kind of language filter that would block off cussing. I just [recently] got banned for a few weeks, all over cussing, so I'd figure I'd bring this up. Just a little idea that might help keep people from being banned over something so little for a [ridiculous] time.

If you follow the rules, then you don't get banned. Simple. But it might be a good idea for the younger players / overprotective parents to have a filter so that when a self-destructive idiot comes along, you don't get kids asking 'Mommy, what does *bleep* mean?'

How about "begging"? I can see many players having the need to sit on their back feet and point their front paws. Also, holding paws up for extended amount of time.

Great idea. ^^ I was going to suggest the same.


So, my idea. Iunno. A paw washing action would be cool for felines; lick a fore paw and then rub their ear or something.

Nice tutorial. Very concise. ^^

Very nice site, Bloo. Be good for one of those chars you want some non-realistic color for, but don't have any idea what. Useful to see 'em without having to mess with the sliders.

Maw: "the mouth, throat, or gullet of an animal, especially a carnivorous mammal."
 So "maw" would actually be used correctly in this case. I find it quite descriptive for open jaws, but that's just me.

As for "build" in place of "body," I've seen/had it used correctly before in sentences such as "he has a slim build," but other than that I haven't heard it used much.

Mm. Maybe maw it could be used for just the mouth, but to my understanding, it means the entire upper digestive tract. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

And as to build, 'slim build' doesn't really mean a slim body. More like his body was built like that. Similar to 'she has a slender frame'. But it's not calling her body a frame, just relating her skeleton to one, and remarking that it's skinny.
