Member Rules
- Blocking an admin is interpreted as you not wanting to have anything to do with the breed anymore. It automatically means that you'll lose all Albus in your posession. You can keep the design of the import but the horse cannot be an Albu anymore, you also cannot keep the breeds mutations.
- Not so much a rule but a general pet pieve of mine is when we don't get a "hello", a "please" or "thank you" when we interact with the community in any way possible through notes etc... I think it is common decency to start a message with "hi" or "hello" etc...
- Please refrain from DMing admins on Discord for matters that can be asked publicly, other people might have the same question.
- IA prompts are not allowed on this group, any Albus illustration made with AI won't be accepted.
- You cannot claim/ buy more than 3 imports in a single day. By imports I don't mean customs but the ones that are designed by admins.
- Creating Albufera specific linearts or YHH is allowed BUT they should be for single use only. You are not allowed to leave a base or lineart for sale for multiple people to buy. It should be sold only once.
- You’re not allowed to be rude/insulting towards other members. Please send a note to the group if you receive any kind of harassment because of anything Albufera.
- If you want to sell your Albus, please read the selling and buying rules
- Starting the 27th of April 2023: You cannot reuse lines for references, every albu reference must be unique.
- If you used to have an Albu but deleted the reference/had an import you never drew send a note to the group with any info about your horse/ import.
Horse Rules
- Bits or any type of instrusive tack are not allowed to be used on Albuferas.
- An Albufera must have an art reference or it's info filled on the comment section.
- Imports do not count as existing horses, if the reference or info of a horse doesn't exist then the horse doesn't exist. It can't reproduce etc... also any XP you count on it will not be valid and you will not receive any rewards for a horse that doesn't have a reference.
- Same for foals: you can't count that a horse has had a foal if said foal doesn't have a reference or info filled.
- Training techniques used to “break” the horse such as rollkur, restraints to force any type of motion, any aggressive technique are forbidden (I see a lot of people doing it all the time, Anky Van Grusen is not a good reference). Any type, hoofpads to exaggerate motion, any type of saddleseat ridding is absolutely forbidden.
- Albuferas can't enter a mounted show or category if they're younger than 4.
- Before breeding your albu check the breeding rules.
- Albuferas should look like Albuferas. I understand you having all kinds of artstyles or having all levels of skill but I would like to see an effort put into respecting the conformation of your Albu. Use as many refs as you’d like, ask for advice. I don’t ask for a perfect renaissance painting; within your own skill still try to respect the conformation.
