This means you must be somewhat active in either pet collecting, in-site trades or forum activity....Do not abuse off-site trading. We do allow members to trade off-site. However, do not make or keep an account on here with the sole purpose of using monthly pets as off-site trade fodder. And do not, under any circumstance, trade between sites that forbid off-site trading. We will ban you and alert the other site about the trade.
This includes any form of account exploitation. Example: You cannot ask members from other sites, for any reason, to join just to give you all of their pets. This is being used as a way around multiple accounting and is not allowed.
We've been noticing an increase in members who are literally only keeping their Eldemore accounts to gain profit on other sites. Normally on a large adoptable site this would be okay, however Eldemore is still too small and unable to support these types of accounts. In addition to this, simply keeping one or two random creatures on your account or just posting "bump" or any other random messages on other threads on the forum to get around this rule isn't okay. We can see when you're doing this very easily.
Also, If you are trading with people who are abusing this rule you could risk getting in trouble as well. If you see a user who is abusing the offsite trading rules, please report them and let a mod or admin take care of it.

Please understand that we aren't trying to discourage offsite trading. This post is here to remind everyone of the rules.
