GENERAL RULES

Coelunes are a closed species created by Luka. Please message them, or any of the moderators if you have any questions about the closed species!


  • If you're uncertain about any rules, feel free to ask a moderator! We are here to help!

  • Every designed Coelune (along with it's owner(s) & designer(s) will be listed on the masterlist located here

  • We must be notified of any swap/trade/gift/selling/voiding of any Coelune design

  • Information about MYO slots/pricing can be discovered here

  • Failure to comply with the Coelune TOS can result in suspension from the community, please just use common sense and be kind.

  • Moderators will be unable to watch over the actions of every person within the community, please notify us if something is to come up and we happen not to catch it (further details on how to report may be viewed on our "Blacklist" tab)

CO-OWNERSHIP

You are permitted to own a Coelune with a friend, but please bear these rules in mind when considering co-ownership!


  • You are allowed to co-own a Coelune, but to prevent troubles, it's highly suggested that you only co-own with close friends

  • Inform moderators if your Coelune is being co-owned so we can keep track

  • If there is trouble between you and a person you are co-owning a Coelune with, please solve these disputes privately, mods will not intervene in personal matters

  • No more than two people can co-own a single Coelune at the same time

  • If you wish to redesign/sell a co-owned Coelune, both parties must agree to the redesign/selling, and proof must be given

  • Although co-ownership is allowed, one person of the two owners must "hold" the slot and have it underneath their name due to the way our website works

PAYMENT

Payment for MYO's will be done by PayPal invoices sent out from Luka
Once a MYO invoice has been sent out, you will have 48 hours to pay it, or else the slot will be sent to another or voided.


MYO slot pricing

COMMONUNCOMMONRARE
$15$25$40

In most scenarios, MYO profits will go to all Coelune mods in an agreed upon cut.


  • A Coelune design will only be owned by you once you have paid for it!

  • Adopts must be paid for within 24 hours of a moderator confirming you have won them

  • The high quality PNG of your Coelune will be sent as soon as the designer can confirm you have paid them

  • You may not bid on an adoptable with an account younger than 5 months old or with no activity

  • Once an invoice is sent out you may not back out of the purchase. Please be 100% sure you can pay the invoice off before bidding/buying. You may not refund Coelune purchases.

  • Depending on the offence, failure to pay within the designated time may result in receiving a warning, ban, or even blacklisting from the species... please just pay in a timely manner!

  • Failure to pay for a design will cause the design to be returned up to bidding or sent to the next person in line

  • You may not re-offer on a design once you have failed to pay

  • If paying through a payment plan, the payment must be completed within one month

  • If paying through a payment plan, you must state as such within your buying message

  • Do not commission art of Coelunes that haven't been officially purchased

CREDIT

Coelunes are a species created by Luka (@nightbuns)
This TOS Carrd was made by Revenge (@sonzies) who is no longer staff & is keeping this carrd up until an actual staff member can move it


  • Please credit and link to the designer/artist when reposting artworks to sites such as Toyhou.se or RefSheet

  • Do not take credit for designs you have not made, no matter the form of purchase

  • If redesigning a bought design, you still must leave credit to the original designer somewhere on their page, even if the design is no longer in use

  • Do not claim Coelunes as your own, link back to our Toyhou.se world or website when applicable.

DESIGNS

All Coelune designs must be approved by staff before use, they must follow design rules listed here
At the present moment, when submitting to our masterlist, your image may not be larger than 2000x2000px


  • You may draw inspiration from preexisting designs, but you may not copy designs from already existing characters that you do not own (anime, TV shows, games, pre-existing Coelunes, YouTubers, other peoples' OCs, ect.)

  • Designs too heavily inspired by already existing characters will be denied, if a mod does not catch this but another party notifies the mod, there is the possibility you will be asked to redesign your Coelune

  • Do not use racist iconography (Nazi armband, rising sun, ect.) on Coelune designs

  • A Coelune may be voided at any time, but you must notify a staff member before officially voiding them (official/guest artist coelunes may not be voided, in the case they are held by a blacklisted user, the design will be returned back to the designer.)

  • It is encouraged that you redesign a Coelune once they have been voided to disconnect them from the community

  • Under certain circumstances, the Coelune team may void a character at a moment's notice

  • Use caution when designing culturally heavy Coelunes. Be mindful, especially when making a Coelune that uses imagery from outside of your own culture


REDESIGNS

  • Small changes (such as clothing or eye color) are okay to do without sending a notification to the Coelune team

  • When making larger changes than that, please notify the moderation team

  • Please keep the original/older designs of a Coelune somewhere that they may be accessed! Just in case you would like to trade the design

  • When redesigning a Coelune, you must keep at least 50% of the most latest design intact (Official coes must keep 70% of their design intact upon redesigns)

RESELLING/TRADING

Though you are permitted to trade and resell Coelunes, please keep these rules in mind.


  • When reselling/trading a Coelune (or Coelune MYO), please ask for an appraisal beforehand

  • It is mandatory to update your slot tracker when selling a Coelune MYO

  • Reselling a gifted MYO slot is not permitted

  • You may only resell a MYO slot for as much as you have purchased it for

  • When reselling a premade Coelune (without additional art) you must resell it for the price in which it was bought for

  • You may not give any Coelune designs to blacklisted users

  • In turn, blacklisted users may not possess a Coelune, if you are in possession of one, they are automatically voided (official/guest artist coelunes may not be voided, in the case they are held by a blacklisted user, the design will be returned back to the designer.)

  • Official adoptables & GA adoptables have a trade cooldown of one month.

BLACKLIST

Please do not go out of your way to harrass any people featured, this is only here to prevent the selling/interaction with the following people while in this community.
Members will not be blacklisted without being notified, along with this, we will not blacklist members unless we feel there is justified reason to.


  • heavensins (scamming & causing member discomfort)

  • Rameroli (claims of problematic behavior*)

  • suitsu (drawing pedophillic content)

  • WIPMON (ableism, racism, nazi apologism, transphobia, & agefaking)


*Full reasoning has been ommitted due to legal threats and/or request from the blacklisted.

If reporting a community member for suspicious activity, you must provide viewable evidence of the events occurring. Hearsay and secondhand accounts will not be accepted as all claims will be looked over with upmost sincerity.For safety, moderators will never join any servers/group chats in order to view evidence.

LIABILITIES

There are many things the Coelune staff are unable to moderate, as much as we would love to watch over everything in the community, there are just some things outside of our reach!


  • Users with a history of scamming may not be banned, however, if the staff determines a user to be a scammer in the present time, they are likely to be banned

  • Coelune staff will not dig into the history of users without sufficient reason to do so

  • Users banned from owning Coelunes will be notified at the earliest convenience by a member of the moderation team

  • Harassment of any kind directed towards blacklisted members is not condoned by Coelune moderators and is harshly discouraged

CODE OF CONDUCT

Overall, please be a kind human being, however, if you need a reminder of how that is, read below!


  • Coelunes are a species which should not be associated with discriminatory content (i.e. racism, homophobia, transphobia, ect.)

  • You may not use terms such as "loli" "shota" "trap" "femboy" or similar when describing Coelune characters

  • Guilting anyone in the community for MYO slots, designs, art, or anything is not allowed

  • Do not harass/threaten users within the community (or outside of the community) for any reason

  • If users are found to be doing morally unacceptable things or supporting such content (bestiality, underage NSFW, incest, "proship" content, transphobia, racism, antisemitism, ect.) they may be blacklisted from the species as a whole

  • It is unlikely to happen, but, should a moderator determine you are unfit for the community, you are able to be blacklisted without prior notice

  • Works that are considered fetishistic or kinks must not be posted in places that minors may see them, it doesn't matter how "light" the fetish, we have NSFW channels, utilize them

  • Though, on another note, Coelunes are not meant to be a NSFW species, please do not go overboard with NSFW content (gore and sexual works both)

  • Do not submit R18 works to the Coelune DA group

  • Do not attempt to solve Coelune issues on your own, if there is an issue which arises, notify a moderator
