Freebie Bin Rules: Please Read!
I want everyone here to be able to get along and have fun!
Do not RESELL or TRADE a character you got for free!
Do not tag them with "Trade/Sell".
Do not put them in your trade folder or sale folder.
Don't "forget" you got them for free- make a note in the profile, tag the character with "free", or double check the ownership log before you put them up for trade!
Givers- when sending a freebie via toyhou.se transfer, please make a note that the character was given for free!
(When you transfer, it allows you to add a note)
This way, there will be no confusion about whether or not the character was free.
If you have drawn or purchased art since you got the character, ASK the person you got them from if you can sell or trade them.
If yes, they are only worth the price of the art you added to the character!
(Seriously guys. #1 problem by far. If you do this three times, you're getting banned.)
Don't complain - You'll get another shot!
Sometimes all the good stuff gets posted while you're taking a nap. Please keep your complaints to yourself, as it is disrespectful to the person giving the characters. You'll have plenty of chances in the future!
(You can, however, politely, request that the giver try a "WTA" or some other giveaway that is not fcfs. Politely.)
Requirements
The person giving out the characters can set whatever requirements they please. If they want to put a character up for free, and only people with a donkey as their avatar can claim, then so be it.
If somebody declines your request for a character, they do not have to explain themselves. It's their character to give as they please.
"Over-claimers"
I get a lot of messages about issues with people who claim tons of characters. What can you do about them?
When giving out characters, consider adding a requirement instead of fcfs.
You can have the requirement be anything- "Own less than 200 characters", "Tell me a joke", "Guess a number 1-10" etc.
This means you can just skip over anyone that tries to claim if you feel like they've been claiming too much.
You do not owe anyone an explanation of why you did or didn't choose them. If anyone gives you a hard time, message me!
DTA's
Draw to adopts are allowed, but the art must be of the character you're giving away.
If you are having somebody draw art of your character so they can get a different character, that is an art trade.
