PLUSHIBES SPECIES TERMS OF SERVICE

Plushibes is owned by tanimtoo - Plushibes are a CLOSED SPECIES. You cannot make your own as part of this species without stated permission (MYO).

 

THE FOLLOWING DOCUMENT OUTLINES THE PLUSHIBES WEBSITE AND DISCORD TERMS OF SERVICE. BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE OR JOINING THE DISCORD, YOU MUST READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS.

 

This TOS extends to all official Plushibes sites, communities, and social media which, at the moment, include plushbes.com, discord and the toyhouse world.

By accessing the site or Discord, viewing any content, or using any services available on the site, you are agreeing to be bound by these terms. Failure to abide by these terms may result in a warning, a ban from the Plushibes group, and/or termination of the account on the Plushibes website, depending on the severity of the situation. If you do not accept all of the Plushibes group’s rules, refrain from interacting with this species and participating in any events.

The base framework of the Plushibes website is based on the openly available Lorekeeper ARPG Masterlist. We do not claim ownership of this framework, nor claim creatorship. All other content found on this website, including artwork, writing, etc. belongs to the Plushibes group unless stated otherwise. Credits for any extensions and artwork can be found on the Credits page.

While these rules extend out of our official site to anyone interacting with the Plushibes species, we can’t fully regulate what happens on third-party sites or servers. We advise you to not join any unofficial groups, as those are not moderated nor observed by us. However, if you find any suspicious activity outside of our server or site, you may contact us and we’ll try our best to resolve these issues but cannot guarantee being able to execute proper action.

These terms are subject to updates and changes, so it is important to check them regularly. Whenever rule changes are made, we will update the ‘Last updated’ date at the top of this document and announce the updates in our official Discord. When big rule updates have been made we will also announce these on plushibes.com through the News feature and/or the Discord server.

 

MEMBERSHIP AND USER CONDUCT

 

USER BEHAVIOUR

Users are expected to be kind and respectful to other members and staff regardless of the situation or circumstance. The Plushibes community is not a place for venting, ranting, or overt negativity. Please do not bring up any topics that may be harmful or upsetting to others in public.

Participation in our official Discord group is a privilege, not a right. Discord participation is also not required in order to obtain or own any Plushibes characters nor to enter most events.

THE FOLLOWING CONDUCT VIOLATES OUR GUIDELINES AND WOULD BE SUBJECT TO WARNINGS, STRIKES, OR BANS, DEPENDING ON THE SEVERITY OF THE SITUATION:
  • Perpetuating homophobia, transphobia, sexism, ableism, racism, pedophillia, zoophilia, nazism, and any other hateful remarks inside or outside of the group. Bigots are not welcome in our community.

  • Being rude to, bullying, or harassing users in the Discord server, or on other social media. If there is a concern with a user that cannot be solved with blocking, please open a ticket or contact a mod. Note: We require proof of instances of breaking TOS, and cannot go off of "good faith" statements. Please provide (to the best of your ability) transcripts, screenshots, or any other relevant information.

  • Name-dropping or publicly gossiping about an individual, even if not present, to stir up drama.
    • Discussing rumours, scandals, or malicious/negative situations involving other species, closed or otherwise, including the community, designs, or owners of those species in the Discord server is prohibited.
    • Additionally, any user found to be posting harassment or these topics to "hate" or "drama" blogs will receive a strike. Both of these instances are malicious and directly go against the rule above of respect towards the community.
  • Guilt-tripping, whining, or complaining about adoptable or artwork prices. Do not beg, guilt, or harass members or staff to try to gain characters, items, currency, or artwork. Plushibe characters are an artist-made luxury item, not a necessity.

  • Harassing another user to sell or trade their Plushibe character(s) to you when they are not explicitly put up for sale or trade offers. If a character is not listed for sale or trade, please do not contact the owner to ask if you can purchase or trade to obtain them.

  • Creating off-brand Plushibe characters or species to sell, or copying an existing Plushibe character’s design and selling it as a different species.

  • Scamming another user by attempting to sell or trade a character that does not belong to you, or accepting money but not transferring the design to the buyer.

  • Reselling your Plushibe character for much more than their official value. 

  • Creating multiple on-site accounts to obtain on-site currency/items, participate in sales and raffles, or other means to profit off of the species will result in an immediate permanent ban from the Species. More than one account is not needed for any reason.

  • Pretending to be a moderator, admin, or guest artist may result in a ban depending on the severity of the situation.

We have a zero-warning policy for incest, pedophilia and zoophilia/bestiality content involving Plushibes and/or any other species/art posted on Toyhouse or in any of the NSFW Discord channels.  

When moderators make a decision or announce a new feature, the issue is open for further discussion in admin DMs or tickets. It can be overwhelming and difficult for individual mods to handle when large numbers of people all question a decision at once, and we much prefer concerns to be addressed one-on-one. This allows us to take our time formulating our replies without getting buried in other messages or overrun by an overwhelming response. Please know that we consult with the entire team for all major decisions and think about our members’ happiness first. No decision is pushed forward without heavy discussion beforehand.

While we encourage members to voice their opinions and highly appreciate suggestions, we also have to consider the well-being of our moderators and other members. When topics are frequently and excessively discussed, our moderator team might not always be ready to fully divert their attention to the discussion at hand to quickly form a comprehensive and accurate response. Therefore, we might ask members to temporarily drop a topic if we feel like the discussion is getting out of hand, is too much for the available mod(s) to handle, or is overtly nitpicky or inconsiderate. In this case, the moderators will always discuss the topic as soon as possible with the full team and make a public announcement in response. Once a moderator asks for a topic to be dropped and discussed later, it must be dropped immediately without any ‘last words’ added in. Ignoring this will result in a warning.

Suggestions and critiques are welcome, as long as it’s constructive and civil - we will not tolerate hateful or cruel messages directed towards members or the staff team. If suggestions or criticism devolve into name-calling or bad-faith arguments towards the mods, warnings will be given out to all involved.

Moderators are allowed to ban users based on them having prior bad experiences with them, or when users come forward and warn the moderation team. 

WEBSITE & SPECIES CONTENT

  • Everything must be kept PG-13 in public spaces, which includes the site. Therefore, on-site content may feature some more serious imagery, themes, and topics such as gore, body horror, alcohol and drug mentions, and other possibly triggering content. This content will always be properly spoilered and marked with trigger warnings to make users aware of its subject matter.
  • Members and mods may create NSFW content, but this must be properly tagged, spoilered and/or posted in NSFW-designated areas. This includes sexual topics and sexual nudity, gore is not counted in this category. However, it is strictly forbidden to create sexual content of Plushibes in any feral form/having detailed feral genitalia or sexual content including feral characters, and doing so will result in an instant ban.
  • If a user decides to engage with any NSFW content put out by the official group or a member of the group, they are doing so at their own discretion. We will never force anyone to produce, engage in, or discuss any NSFW topics, as these will mainly be included in individual character designs, some lore, and some on-site assets. 
  • Any NSFW content needs to have a fitting and explaining content warning and spoiler added to it before posting in our Discord or plushibes.com. The same also applies to triggering content, which requires a fitting trigger warning as well as a spoiler before viewing/reading. If you’re unsure whether or not your content requires a CW/TW, please message one of our moderators.

 

AGE

  • Members must be at least 13 years old to create an on-site account, join the species Discord server or obtain a character of the group species through official sales and giveaways. Users under the age of 13 are asked not to interact with the species at all and will be banned if found to have created an on-site account.
  • Members under the age of 18 may not interact with or create NSFW content at all. Any minor found to be doing so will be given an immediate and permanent ban from the species.
  • Swearing is allowed, but keep it moderate.
  • We do not tolerate adults bothering minors or vice versa. Inappropriate or suspicious talks between minors and adults may result in an instant ban from the species for one or both users involved.
  • Members under the age of 18 cannot create, request, or share adult content. Similarly, adults are not allowed to create, request, or share adult content with minors. Both parties may be given a ban in this situation.

 

ACCOUNT AND USER UPLOADS

  • You must have an on-site account (linked to any of our social media options - i.e. Toyhouse or Deviantart) in order to own any Plushibe characters.
  • Your account name must be unique and cannot include any vulgar, sexual, suggestive, NSFW, hateful, or otherwise disrespectful words or phrases. The same also applies to your account’s biography and profile image.
  • Links in regular users’ profiles are not verified by the mod team. Clicking on any links not provided by the site or moderators is to be done with caution. However, it is forbidden for users to include any content in their profiles that breaks any of our rules. If you find any suspicious, NSFW, or otherwise rule-breaking links or user profiles, please report these through the Report button on the user’s page (triangle next to their username).
  • It is forbidden to make multiple accounts on the Plushibes website or Discord for any reason. Making multiple accounts, to earn more on-site currency/items or materials, enter FTO/FFA sales for higher win chances, bypass bans, troll, cheat, etc. will result in a permanent ban without further discussion. To find such "sockpuppet" accounts, we have a system on our site which flags down suspicious accounts. After reviewing these manually, we will contact you to request an explanation.

-> If you find yourself unable to log back into your account, try resetting your password, or contact an admin as a last resort. If you would like to change your username, please contact an admin instead of creating a new account; we can change your username for you.

-> In the event of a ban, the banned user cannot create or use another account. Your account and access to your account are non-transferable and cannot be given away, traded to, or sold to another user or person for any reason.

  • You cannot sell in-game currency/items for real-life money. You may trade art, physical goods, or characters for in-game currency/items though.
  • All art and writing uploaded by you must either be made by you or have accurate and working credit to the artist/writer and needs permission from the artist/writer to be reposted on this site. Said content must follow our ‘Website & Species Content’ rules.
  • The Plushibes group is strongly against NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) and will never interact with or condone them. Every instance of the acronym NFT used within our group is the shortened version of "not for trade". This acronym has been used for character trades for years, and we will not change its in-group meaning to stand for Non-Fungible-Token, as we do not associate with them. The staff team and guest artists are against Non-Fungible Tokens.

 

WARNINGS, STRIKES AND BANS

All warnings, strikes, bans, and other personal matters will only be discussed privately with the individual involved. We will not give out any personal information to other users or disclose who has how many warnings, strikes, etc. any user has at any point in time.


A Warning will be given out to the user in question for small and/or clearly unintentional rule breaks. Strikes may also be directly given, without prior warning, for larger and more intentional rule breaks. Once a user has received multiple strikes, they may be temporarily or permanently banned from participating in the Plushibes group, depending on the severity of the situation and their previous warnings/strikes. 

The staff team decides not to work with a 'warn system', meaning every situation/user will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

 

We also reserve the right to instant ban someone without warning in serious situations.

 

There are two types of bans a user can receive:

A temporary ban means that the user is banned from participating in any group-specific games, events, sales, giveaways, and any other group-specific activities for a set period of time. During this time period, the user may trade, gift, or sell their Plushibes characters but will need to provide proof of the trade to a moderator. Once the given timeframe has passed, the user may be allowed back into the group unless the moderators receive proof of continued malicious intent and/or non-changed behaviour. If this is the case, an extended or permanent ban will be issued.

A permanent ban means that the user will be banned from all group-related social media, the Plushibes Discord, and the official Plushibes website. The user may no longer participate in any games, events, sales, trades, giveaways, or other group-hosted events. The user will be given a specific timeframe in which they can void, sell, trade or gift away their in-game items/currency, as well as any Plushibes characters logged on the website. After the given timeframe has passed, all characters, items, and currency still on the user’s on-site account will be permanently voided and deleted. This user will be blacklisted, meaning they may no longer receive Plushibe characters.

ANY OF THE FOLLOWING WILL RESULT IN A PERMANENT BAN WITHOUT DISCUSSION WITH THE USER:

  • Pedophillia, zoophilia, racism, nazism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, and any other hateful remarks inside or outside of the group.

  • Messaging/Exchanging NSFW content of any kind to/from an adult to/from a minor.

  • Anyone under the age of 18 creating any Plushibes-related NSFW content or sharing any other NSFW content within the community.

  • Creating off-brand Plushibe characters or species to sell, or copying an existing Plushibe character’s design and selling it as a different species.

  • Scamming another user by attempting to sell or trade a character that does not belong to you, or accepting money but not transferring the design to the buyer.

  • Issuing a refund or chargeback after purchasing an official Plushibe character without discussing this with the other user or moderator/GA first.

  • Selling a Plushibe character for a much higher value than their masterlist shows/the moderators appraised.

  • Creating multiple on-site accounts to obtain on-site currency/items, participate in sales and raffles, or other means to profit off of the species.

  • Pretending to be a moderator, admin, or guest artist.
  • Lying about your age to gain access to the website or Discord server.

To read more about voided characters, refer to the relevant section, ‘Voiding.’ Users may keep their characters after they have been voided but can no longer call them a Plushibe or claim them to be a part of the Plushibes group. 

Users that have been permanently banned may be put on a public blacklist to warn and inform others. No personal information will be mentioned but the user's username(s), as well as a summary of the reason for the ban. This will only be done if we believe the user is - and will continue to be - a rule-breaker and put others in danger.

 

ART

  • Tanimtoo retains the right to use any Plushibes-related art that he has created for any material; this includes (but is not limited to) site art and promotional posts. 
  • Users are not permitted to trace Tanimtoo’s, staff members', GA’s or any other user's art or claim their art as their own.
  • You not edit existing art done by our official or guest artists' work unless given explicit permission by the respective artist. If you want to change your character's design, you will need to redraw the character yourself or commission another artist and submit a redesign request on our website.
  • Any art posted to plushibes.com or in our Discord needs to follow the rules stated in the ‘Website and Species Conduct’ of this TOS. More specific rules may apply to the Discord server due to its specific channels.
  • You may not sell merchandise of NPCs/Tanimtoo's characters/the Plushibes brand as a whole, or profit off of official art in any way. This includes creating prints or merchandise of official art, the species, etc. This also includes any art made by any of the official/guest artists. Users may sell merchandise made with their own art, but this needs to be discussed with Tanimtoo first.
  • NSFW art and writing are allowed to be made of humanoid or anthro Plushibes, as they are intelligent anthropomorphic beings. However, any NSFW art or writing needs to be tagged and/or spoilered accurately when posting. It is prohibited to create NSFW art and writing of any underage or feral Plushibes. None of this art or writing may be shared from adults to minors or vice versa!
  • Masterlist images must be kept generally SFW and body horror/gore must be kept to a minimum, as characters on the masterlist will not be spoilered/censored.



CHARACTER AND OWNERSHIP TERMS

 

SPECIES-SPECIFIC

  • Plushibes are a closed species by Tanimtoo, meaning you cannot make your own without a Plushibe MYO slot. Official Plushibes can only be made by the species owner, certain staff members, designated guest artists, or by using a MYO slot. These rules pertain to the ownership, resale, and trade of Plushibe designs. You may not claim ownership of the species or claim any rights to any art and content made for this group.
  • You may not make 'fan characters', 'one-offs', 'rip-offs' or 'off-brand' Plushibes, nor may you claim one to be an official Plushibe.
    • Tanimtoo is okay with characters and species existing that share the same or similar concept, theme or aesthetic. He will not condone any witch-hunting or harassment towards people in or outside the species for owning a character similar to the species. However, he will not tolerate intentional copying of Plushibes either, the keyword being 'intentional'.
  • You may make Plushibes with the use of a MYO slot based on fictional characters or media, but be aware of those that fall under official copyright rules. These CBCs ("Content Based Characters") must be unique enough to be called an original character. Kinsonas/'Dekudogs' are not allowed due to their mostly-copied nature.

 

OWNERSHIP

  • When you own a Plushibe character, you own the personal and non-commercial rights to that character. The Plushibes group retains the commercial rights to the species but does not claim any personal or commercial rights to any individual character you may own. We will never claim to own or revoke any characters owned by any user.
  • Commercial use of your Plushibes requires specific approval by Tanimtoo, as well as the original designer of the character.
  • Users only officially own a Plushibes species character if the masterlist of said character is under their name. Once a masterlist transfer has been made, approved, and accepted, the character no longer belongs to the previous owner. Only through the on-site transfer of the character's specific masterlist entry can the trade be verified and called legitimate. To reduce the possibility of a scam, users are encouraged to only initiate a character transfer after full payment has been made.
    • Payment before transfer. Staff can force a character/ownership transfer if necessary, a payment cannot be forced by staff.
  • If a user is experiencing difficulty verifying the legitimacy or worth of a Plushibes species character they are purchasing off-site, they may reach out to a site moderator for assistance. 
  • At the moment, every Plushibes species character may only have one official owner. Co-owning cannot be officially recognised on the site and is therefore discouraged. We do not and will not take any responsibility for co-ownership disputes or the terms that co-owners set between themselves. You are completely responsible for keeping up and navigating your co-ownership contract.
  • You may change your Plushibe's appearance and design according to our redesign guide and rules stated in [[a work in progress page]]. Things like age, character, height/weight, gender, story, etc. may be changed at the owner's will.
  • While we host all Plushibe characters on our website, we have no direct connection to, or say in, how a user decides to develop their character’s personality and actions. We do not condone any inappropriate character development but cannot and will not interfere with a user’s personal choices unless they directly violate our rules. It is against the Plushibes Terms of Service to make characters that perpetuate harmful stereotypes of gender, sexual orientation, mental health status, ethnicity, etc. Any character that is suspected of doing such should be reported to a moderator immediately with reasonable proof.

 

DESIGN AND REDESIGNS

  • The complete overview of design and redesign rules/guides for Plushibes can be found on [[a work in progress page]]. The following rules are simply the rules around designs and redesigns.
  • Larger design edits, different traits, and specific patterns or colours may require on-site items. When submitting a design/redesign, the item must be applied in the submission to make the design/redesign valid and approvable.
  • Once a design or MYO request has been filled out and submitted, it will then be reviewed by an admin or moderator. This can take anywhere from a day to a week depending on staff's availability.
  • If changes must be made to your design, the admin or moderator reviewing it on-site will return your submission with notes on said changes.

 

VOIDING

  • A user may request to completely remove any of their Plushibe characters that are on plushibes.com and any association with the species. This will result in the masterlist of the character being completely deleted which includes all of their art, info, and items/traits. This action means ‘voiding’ your characters. After this process has been done, the character can no longer be associated with the Plushibes group nor can it be called a Plushibe. This process is permanent and cannot be undone by the current or any future owners of the character. 
  • Any user may decide to void any of their characters without question from the Plushibe team or any other members. Refrain from asking any members why they have decided to void their characters, as the reason might be personal or simply none of your business.
  • To void your character, simply request to message an admin and tell them which specific character you’d like to void. You will be requested to agree to this TOS once more before your character will be permanently voided.
  • Plushibes without a masterlist entry are not considered a Plushibe and should be reported to staff if the owner pretends like the character is still a Plushibe.
  • Design tweaks to turn the character less like a Plushibe may be requested and should be considered. However, in the end, staff can not force a change in the design of a character that is not a Plushibe (anymore).

 

SALES AND TRADES

The following are general rules for any official Plushibe or pet species sales, as well as resales. Extended rules may apply to specific sales or events - and by participating in any official sales, auctions, raffles, character events, or trades - you agree to these terms.

 

GENERAL RULES

  • Official sales and creations of Plushibes can only be made by Tanimtoo and when discussed by moderators and designated guest artists.
  • Please do not ask to be a guest artist or moderator. When applications open, there will be (an) announcement(s).
  • Do not ask any mods or guest artists when sales go up.
  • Do not ask for specific Plushibes in seeking ads unless they are up for trade and/or you have gotten permission from the owner.
  • Do not message a Plushibe owner asking if they plan to sell/trade their Plushibe, if they would consider selling/ trading to you, or if you can be notified if they ever go up for sale/trade unless the Plushibe has been trade-listed. This is disrespectful and will result in a warning. 
  • Do not complain or guilt-trip anyone about the value of Plushibes. They are not a necessity but a luxury item!
  • Plushibes MYO slots are on occasion handed out in raffle sales, 'MYO offerings' or free events. These slots are only valid if they have been uploaded to the MYO slot Masterlist with their own masterlist entry. If you are not explicitly asked to submit a claim for a MYO, it means staff will or already has created it for you.
  • Refunds and chargebacks are not accepted and will not be granted (exceptions for extreme situations may be made if they’re brought forward early enough). In the case of an unresolved chargeback, the character will be voided, or you will be banned from the species permanently and put on a public blacklist to warn others.
  • Designers retain partial rights to their design. This includes all copyrights, rights to intellectual property, and the rights to distribute, reproduce, and display in their online galleries. Artists will not reuse or resell the design for personal and commercial projects unless the design has been traded back to them.
  • Artists reserve the right to refuse sale or service to anyone at their discretion; this includes the sale of adopts or guest artist commissions. (Example: Users with brand-new/unverified accounts or repeat rule-breakers.)
  • The ToS of payment sources should be kept in mind upon selling Plushibe characters to anyone under the age of 18. Most (e.g. Paypal, Ko-Fi) prohibit the use of their platform by minors. There are exceptions (e.g. Cashapp) that allow anyone above the age of 13 with parental permission and supervision.
  • We are not responsible for any unofficial or stolen Plushibes characters you may purchase or trade from outside of our official Discord group, social media, or website. It is your responsibility to resolve the situation and get your money back if you are scammed outside of our community. You may report the incident to us, but we cannot guarantee compensation. We only have control over the sales occurring within our community. However, users found to have made these sales will be punished with a temporary to permanent ban.

 

AUCTION AND CUSTOM RULES

  • False bids on auctions are not tolerated. Users are prohibited from making bids in an attempt to increase the price without intent to purchase.
  • The currency should not be changed from one bid to another. Most official Plushibes sales are hosted in USD ($) but may be in another currency depending on the artist.
  • It is forbidden for users to block other bidders to prevent them from making further bids.

 

RESALE RULES

  • Plushibes or companion species cannot be sold for much more than their on-site values.
  • If you’d like to appraise your Plushibe’s value, read through the Appraisal part of the TOS below and ask to DM a moderator on our Discord. There, a moderator will work you through how to appraise your Plushibe character.
  • Selling a Plushibe for much higher than their official worth can be a bannable offence if this appears to be done in bad faith.
  • Only ask for an appraisal if you are selling/trading/gifting your character.
  •  MYO slots can only be traded or gifted but not resold.

 

Appraising a Plushibe Species Character:

  • Plushibes may be appraised if they have any added artwork or writing. This counts digital art and digital writing. If you’d like to add the value of any physical items made of/for the Plushibes character, then you will need to also be willing to ship said items to the new owner.
  • You may only appraise your Plushibes character if you are planning to sell or trade the character.
  • To get your Plushibes character appraised, please ask to DM a moderator in the Discord server's ask-the-mods channel and an available moderator will help you at our earliest convenience.
  • Please provide proof of purchases for commissioned pieces, as well as your own commissions sheet/site for any personal work of your Plushibes character. You may create a document compiling everything for appraisal if it is more convenient. The clearer it is for staff, the more appreciated.

 

Personal works: counts for HALF of your commission prices. Please submit proof of your commission prices as a reference. There is room for discussion.

Commissioned works: counts for FULL commission prices. Please include screenshots of DMs, receipts of purchase or any other form of proof.

Traded works: counts for YOUR part of the trade, not the other person. Please submit proof of your commission prices as a reference.

Multi-character note: If there are two Plushibes in one piece, the worth is split in HALF (Example: the commission was $30 featuring two Plushibes; each Plushibe would be able to add $15 to their worth, not the full amount.) 

Does not count: gifts, pieces used in prompts, pieces bought with Plushibes site currencies or other site currencies.

-> NOTE: Make sure to list the currency (Euro, USD, etc.) you paid in for each piece so we can convert it all to USD for the ML entry! Please also keep in mind that we may update or change these rules if people abuse them by bloating a character's worth just to sell/trade. We are quite flexible, willing to discuss and not too strict when it comes to proof.



TERM MEANINGS  

Plushibes, also known as shibes, their feral/anthro variant, Plushipets, or their humanoid variant, Plushipals, are sentient plushies featuring zippers, stitches and/or patches! More about this species can be found [[in a work in progress page]].

MYO ("Make Your Own") are slots sold, traded, or gifted to members to make their own character of a certain species. MYO slots have an attached rarity and sometimes traits, which cannot be modified without the use of items.

Closed Species are an Original Species defined by the unique nature of the character’s appearances, anatomy, and lore to create the species concept as a whole. Characters within a Closed Species are not free to make, meaning only certain individuals can create official characters of said species. Usually, there are MYO slots with which other users can make their own characters of the species.

GA ("Guest Artist") are individuals who were granted special, yet not unlimited, permission to create Plushibe designs for sales, trades or giveaways. When, how or how many GAs are chosen is up to the staff team.

FTO ("First Time Owner") are members who have never before owned a Plushibe. 

Non-Owners are members who have owned a Plushibe in the past but currently do not own any Plushibes.

FFA ("free for all") is a term used to indicate that a specific sale, trade, raffle, etc. is available for anyone to enter. This includes members who currently own Plushibes, as well as FTOs and Non-Owners. 

FCFS ("first come first served") is a way to quickly sell characters or MYO slots. The person who replies fastest to the given advertisement will be the winner of said sale, trade, etc.

Raffle Sale - A raffle sale is a sale in which the character or MYO being sold has a predetermined price, such as $50, and the buyer is selected randomly from a raffle. It does not cost any money to enter into the raffle. Only the winner, once rolled from the raffle, will need to pay for the character. Do not enter any raffle sales if you cannot pay!

NFT ("not for trade") Some Plushibe characters on Toyhouse might have the Tag ‘NFT’. This has always been a shortened version of ‘not for trade’ meaning that the character isn’t currently open for offers.

UFS ("Up For Sale") indicates that a member is looking to sell their character! They sometimes have a set price tag or may allow you to offer money with other things on top, such as art.  

UFT ("Up For Trade") indicates that a member is looking to trade their Plushibe for characters, such as one-offs or other closed species! They may mention what sort of characters they are looking for in their post.

SWAPS ("Up For Swap") indicates that a member is looking to swap their Plushibe for another Plushibe only! If they are only looking for swaps, please do not try to bribe them with non-Plushibe characters. 

UFO ("Up For Offer") indicates that a member is taking offers on their Plushibe for money, characters, art, or other! They may mention what sort of offers they are looking for in their post.

ENTERTAINING OFFERS indicates that a member is accepting offers on their Plushibe out of curiosity, but is not certain if they would let the character in question go. Entertaining means that it’s mostly to see what sort of trade offers they will get, so the people who offer shouldn’t get too excited about receiving said character.  

Please respect these terms and only offer what people ask for! Repeatedly ignoring sale or trade requirements will result in a strike.
