TFC Questions
Audio Drama Questions
- Are you going to open new auditions for the audio drama?
- No.
- When will we get the next installment of the audio drama?
- As far as we know? Never. Sorry guys. As much as we know it makes people excited, we had to decide which parts of the project we were going to focus our energy on, and we opted to continue the story instead of trying to piece more audio drama of the existing text together.
- Will work ever resume on the audio drama?
- Probably not. Enjoy the piece that exists, because it's highly unlikely we'll ever get more done.
Banning
- What is banning?
- Banning is when a user is banned, barred, or otherwise prohibited from posting in the TFC Community forums.
- What does banning entail?
- The account of the banned user is blocked from being able to post by an administrator.
- How long does banning last?
- In the past, some bans were repealed. The users whose bans were repealed went on to misbehave again. Bans are now permanent.
Character Building Questions
- Can I make a character who is an [insert inherently Force-sensitive species here]?
- No. Inherently Force-sensitive species are currently restricted to the use of the Cast and/or Crew. You can make a Force-sensitive, but don't have them be a Miraluka or a Vornskr.
- Can my character be homosexual or have an "alternate" gender?
- That's your business, not ours. Just keep in mind that all biographies must adhere to strict standards: you cannot create an X-rated biography for TFC, post an X-rated piece of artwork or fanfiction for TFC, create a homosexual character in order to bash homosexuality, etc. Additionally, if your character has an "alternate" gender or is hermaphroditic, they should come from a species that is naturally of an alternate gender/hermaphroditic nature.
- Can I write more than one biography?
- Yup.
- Where do I find info on putting a bio together?
- We've assembled a helpful guide right here: TFC_EU_Character_Creation.
- Can I use a race that's original to me or TFC for my character?
- Yes! Though creating your own race and making it work well takes time and patience. Also, if you wish to use a race created by another member of TFC, you MUST ask the creator's permission first.
Character Specific Questions
- Wasn't there somebody else filling the role of "insanely powerful Jedi Kid" before Perdia?
- At one point in time, yes. That character's player has long since left the site.
- Hey, Zannah got her character name from that "Darth Zannah" girl in Darth Bane: Rule of Two (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Darth_Bane:_Rule_of_Two), right?
- No. Darth Zannah (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Darth_Zannah), also known as "Rain", was a character who first appeared in the graphic novel Jedi Vs. Sith (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Jedi_vs._Sith) in 2002. TFC's Zannah has been a Cast Member here since 1998, and has been playing her said named character since 1993, predating "Darth Zannah" by about nine years. There is NO relation between these two characters.
- Will we be seeing more of Empress VV and the Amazons?
- No, those characters' player no longer visits this site.
Chat Rooms
- Has TFC ever had a chat room?
- Yes. The cast and crew still maintain a private chat room. Public chats are held from time to time, but there is not a 24/7 chat room for the TFC community, and we do not have a chat room on our website.
Crew/Cast Questions
- How do I become a TFC Crew Member?
- There are many factors involved in the decision to add members to TFC's Crew. Most notably, people who are friendly, intelligent, trustworthy and interested in contributing to the site tend to be recognized and eventually elevated to Crew. Crew are often privy to the inner workings of the story as it is being written, and sometimes called upon to help with RP and proofreading. Asking/whining/begging for Crew status makes Admins cranky.
- How do I become a TFC Cast Member?
- You don't. The cast is established and unlikely to add new members.
- Are you ever going to reopen auditions for new characters?
- At this point? No. We have too many characters to balance in the storyline as is. We are not interested in adding new ones. On the rare occasion that we need a new character to fill a role, we do tend to poll TFC's EU bios for candidates, which leads to cameo appearances. Want to have a character mentioned in the story? Create bios for potentially useful people.
- Who is on TFC's Staff?
- The Staff is a group of Cast and Crew members most involved in running the site. More information can be found here.
Domestic Animals
- Do TFC's furries hunt, raise livestock, or keep domestic animals as pets?
- Yes.
Episode I
- Why did you rewrite Episode I?
- There were a number of reasons for rewriting Episode I, ranging from plot holes and poor writing to replaced cast characters.
Forum Questions
- How do I join TFC's forum?
- Go to the Community (http://bbs.furryconflict.com/) and register an account.
- Where should I go first?
- The Airlock (http://bbs.furryconflict.com/viewforum.php?f=39) and Decompression (http://bbs.furryconflict.com/viewforum.php?f=58) Zones.
- Does my post count mean anything here?
- Status wise? Not a thing. Some people are more active than others. Don't bother trying to catch up by posting crap. This may lead to your being snarked at by the Admins, or possible banning.
- How do I get TFC Cast members to join my RP?
- Have you tried asking nicely? Don't expect too much, though. Writing for TFC takes up a lot of what spare time we have, and we DO have lives.
- Can I have a cool title or one of those shifty avatars?
- No.
- Do those group things mean anything?
- Not really. They're a board feature.
- What are the triforces beneath a poster's name on the TFC community forums?
- A triforce indicates that you are a member of the TFC cast and/or crew. Crew members have blue triforces. Cast members have multicolored triforces.
Mirror Universe
- Is the Star Wars galaxy a mirror universe of the Star Trek galaxy? For example, if Marc Xavier went onto a planet in the Star Wars galaxy would he have an evil twin somewhere that made people hate and fear him?
- No. Not under any circumstances. No one has a mysterious doppelganger on the other side of the Great Rift.
Music
- Does TFC have a soundtrack?
- No.
- Do TFC characters have theme songs?
- Sort of. Some cast members have theme songs in mind for their characters, but that information is not public.
Ship Designs
- Why can't I submit ship designs for Federation or Imperial vessels?
- We have a lot already. The attitude at TFC once approached that of an arms race. The admins have decided that this is not the direction for the site to go; more emphasis is being placed on characters than a technological arms race now. So, no more ship designs. Sorry.
- Ship X is totally more powerful than ship Y!
- Honestly? You're entitled to your opinions, but at TFC the Plot determines who wins. Everything else is just random statistics and pure dumb luck.
