1) Accounts and characters will be placed as In Active if the member fails to post in the activity check regardless of their post in the absence board. Accounts will be deleted after 6 months of inactivity on the site. Make sure to reply in all activity checks and always post in the absences board if you are going to be away longer than a week.
2) If you are placed as In Active, just re-post in the maintenance thread with your character's information and that you wish to return to active, the pack/loner status, etc...
3) Pack Leaders must be active and post at least once a week. If a leader fails to do this, they will be demoted and the packs Beta will be come Alpha. If there is no beta or the beta is not active enough, the pack will be open to claiming. Posting an absence thread will temporarily exempt a leader from this activity requirement, however for any absence longer than a week it's required to place a temporary leader in charge until your return. If a leader vanishes with no notice, the staff reserves the right to disband the pack or appoint a new leader any way they see fit.
4) Pack leaders decide whether to promote or demote their members. The Staff has no control over this.
