Adopts
You may not trade or sell your Squib within 1 week of receiving it.
Follow the individual designer's rules about reselling, trading, etc.
You may slightly change the design of your Squib as long as it is still recognizable as what you bought.
All design changes must be approved by the owners or one of the moderators.
Do not complain if another user gets a Squib you wanted.
Free adopts follow the same rules are free MYOs.
Customs
You may not trade or sell your Squib within 1 week of receiving it.
Follow the individual designer's rules about reselling, trading, etc.
You may slightly change the design of your Squib as long as it is still recognizable as what you bought.
All design changes must be approved by the owners or one of the moderators.
Do not pester any of the staff to make you a custom. If they don't want to do it for you or have theirs closed, accept that. (Asking them when they may be open is ok!)
Free customs follow the same rules as free MYOs.
MYOs
Free MYOs cannot be sold, only traded, gifted or donated to the Adoption Center.
(Though, may be sold for the equivalent of money spent on them. Examples here.)
You may not sell free MYO tickets or MYO tickets purchased with group currency.
They cannot be directly based on/share the design of a copyrighted character. Palettes inspired by copyrighted characters are fine.
Must be approved by a moderator or admin before it can be used/traded/sold. If not uploaded to the ML, you must keep track of the approval (via screenshot or link).
Breeding Rules/Breeding Prompt Rules
Squibs must be two weeks old before breeding. Not the age you gave them, but must have been uploaded to the masterlist for two or more weeks.
Squibs can breed twice a year. No more than that.
Offspring just received from an event may not be bred in the same event.
Squibs must have existed before the breeding prompt was posted to be bred. Any MYOs, adopts, customs, etc purchased and made after cannot be bred until the next breeding event.
A note from Bearbuns - Original founder One the current owners would like to uphold.
"I am a firm believer in a closed species not being outrageously priced and unobtainable to those who want one. I don't want to make you spend your life savings just to own a Squib. I promise to always keep Squibs affordable and available to those who may not be able to afford other closed species. I will continue to host MYO giveaways and other events for those who wish to try the species out, but don't want to make the purchase commitment until they've tested the waters. I don't believe in revoking your designs and adopts if you have infractions, but I do believe in some punishment and restricting what you can do within the community. I will never take your Squibs away over rule violations. I promise to keep this lovely community of ours growing and prospering. Thank you all for supporting us."
