UK - Ban Cat--My character Zorro was deactivated yesterday, can you tell me why?

I replied to your PM, I need a bit of time to sift through characters to try and find yours (which I can't, I asked you to send me a link to them.) in the future however, please try to stay on-topic. Even if I'm taking a while I always reply to PMs and if you're worried I missed it don't worry about sending another one.

Guess what? I finally thought about changing the colors of my character and I got poison_kiss to help me out. They changed the deisgn and everythinh and there was nothing but natural colors. Guess what happened when I resubmitted the character with the new render and design? (I made a render for the headshot) They didn't activate it because "vampire stories have nothing to do with the balto world". What the heck it that??? That wasn't a rule last time I checked. And all my fanfics with Hunter and Balto are before he was a vampire. So now what? I'm gonna have to change his history too? Because I REFUSE to change the history!

I'm going to guess whoever accepted your fan-fics in the first place didn't read them =/
anyhow... what does Vampires have to do with Balto...?
The balto Film is based of a REAL life story...
You don't see no magical abilities and blood sucking vampire dogs, and wolves
*and that makes no sense, a vampire that is a wolf? Uhh.. mythology 101, Lycanthrops Hate hate hate vampires and vice versa.. why would one be a wolf?*
even more the vampire x were wolf stories *shudders*.. never gonna happen in real mythology
err well anyways..
the only bit of 'magic' we see is Aniu which is not very drastic, a ghostly white wolf, makes sense..
now a 'vampire' wolf... is.. just on a whole new level..

again.. when creating your characters.. make them as realistic as you possibly can, not no 'blood sucking, mind-reading elemental mending wolf. Then you wouldn't be having these problems

I'm just going to assume he unnatural color ban was added to prevent stuff like this from coming in.

Don't get angry and start complaining. Just make it a more natural shade of yellow or gold. You don't see neon yellow wolves running around, do you?

Well, if I recal in Balto one, there was a purplish dog(Star) & a blue one that looks like Nikki during the sled dog race.
But yeah if I see a dark puple wolfdog roaming around, I would be a bit consered Lol

Meh, I'm tired of this. Plently of my characters have unatural colors and no ties to Balto, so I'm just gonna delete them.

Have a nice day! - Pikayu

Yeah I've decided to just put stuff about my "unnatural" characters on DA instead ;]

Hmm... EVERY TIME I would make a character, I don't think it will ever be accepted.

The reason, I have colorblindness. So the colors will never actually be realistic.

This "unnatural" color rule is really unfair to people like me, who can't even SEE A color right. So How would I get a character accepted?! I would have to get someone else to color it, and if I do that, I might not like the colors!

I don't have a character yet, But I plan to get one of mine up soon, but I don't think it will ever be accepted. >.<

*end ramble*

The mods are considerate people. I'm sure they would understand.

You could also P.M a fan character mod with a picture of your character to see if the colours would or would not be accepted, without having to write out the bio first. That way you aren't spending your valueable time for nothing.

Well, I'm sure if you asked and stated you were colorblind the mods would point out your character is blindingly green or red.

Yes, of course. We'll completely understand you if you mention that somewhere, anywhere, just tell us.

The fan characters rules are dull and seem to be "new" to some people, and I understand it's frustrating to get your character deactivated like 3937493 times.

There is a topic about this -> fan-characters-what-is-and-is-not-acceptable-t23398.html
Just to avoid further confusion.
In fact the link is shown when you submit a character, so all you have to do is read them rules and then you will avoid that xyz mistake. And then there you go, you'll have your character approved.
