It's 1869. A time when the land was lawless, merely a few years after the Civil War ended, Legacy stands tall over its people. While still considered small, the town is ever growing with the number of settlers that travel here and choose to call it their home. One family in particular has put the town on the map. The Gunner family is said to run the town. They have a positive impact on it and tries their hardest to keep out the lawbreakers and those who wish to destroy it. You can't keep everything safe, however. There's bound to be those who want to uproot this family and take the town as their own, to shatter the peace that has been so hard earned. Afterall, this is the true west. It's rugged, untamed and it's only a matter of time before peace is merely a whisper and all hell breaks loose.

Summer, '69
Just hitting mid-June, it's really starting to warm up. Crops are in full swing, as well as foaling season for the horses. Calving has started on the ranches. The sun beats down on the town of Legacy, drying up any remaining puddles left behind by the Spring showers. Pretty soon the whether will just be downright miserable.

05.29.18 Welcome to LegacyX! I'm so excited to have you all here, please come on in and take a load off! All links can be found to your left under 'Information'. Don't hesitate to reach out to a staff member if you have any questions, that's what we're here for! Right now there's just little ol' me so we are looking for more staff members. Since we've just opened, expect things to be slow. But know this, we're working on everything!!

TO START WITH, - If you are not familiar with the Proboards TOS, please familiarize yourself with them now. - We have a zero tolerance for begging, harassing, bullying, panhandling, streaking (alone... alone is unacceptable. It must be a party.), throwing the bird, and any behavior that is deemed unacceptable in a normal public place. - Profanity is acceptable to an extent. Extreme use of obscenities not only makes the site look tacky but will get you banned. - Hey Jack! Don't spam the chat box! - Members are expected to respect everyone whether staff member or fellow member, multiple warnings of any kind will result in either temporary ban or removal from site, depending on the severity of given warnings to the member. - And lastly, smiles are contagious.. remember this!
SOME SITE FACTS, - Legacy has no minimum word count, however we recommend at least 200 words, or enough to give your writing partner something to work with. - Legacy supports a separate character account system. Please create your IC account first. You may sort your own groups, and can do so through your profile. If you need help with this, ask a staff member! - The site-year-to-real-time ratio is 2 real time months to 1 site month, so 1 site year = 6 real months. Seasons last about 6 real weeks. - Legacy is set in Legacy, TX (Amarillo today) 1869.
IN-CHARACTER, - All living beings age at the end of each site year. - We do not have a character limit! However, if you cannot handle more than what you already have please save yourself the trouble and rethink another creation. - Do not post a face claim unless your character's application is accepted. You can reserve a play by for one week. - Do not claim a job, gang or tribe until your character's application is accepted. - Liquid time is allowed, but don't get crazy with it. Days and weeks are fine. - No god modding, member-through-character bullying, or just being downright disrespectful. But we shouldn't need to remind ya'll that ~ - *** Although Legacy follows factual timelines and historical events, we do not support real life demographics. While we accept characters with names reflecting real world icons, your character cannot automatically claim that reputation. You must develop a reputation for them. Furthermore, real world names do not have to reflect real world reputations on LegacyX. John Wayne can be an outlaw's name.***
JOBS, - Many jobs are ready to claim as soon as your character is accepted, but please keep in mind that higher-ranked jobs (ex. Mayor, Sheriff, Land owners, ect..) may require approval or for your character to "earn" said job through promotions. - Remember your Chain of Command, if your character is a stable hand, the barn's manager is their boss and we expect it to seem like so. - Members or characters found purposely abusing a higher-ranked job with be "fired" and removed from the Jobs List. This includes refusing to play an appropriate roll for the position or becoming inactive for a long period of time. - Please keep in mind that some jobs do require a bit more activity than others will, such as a Mayor and Sheriff jobs. - Lastly, characters are not paid for their jobs unless otherwise stated. However free boarding and bonuses from stables and other establishments are provided through employment. If a character is paid, payment will be rewarded once a month, on the 1st of every month (this is our time).
CANONS AND WANTED ADS, - Firstly, you must be active in order to obtain any canon. - Canons must have a completed application in order to be played, this can be done by either the creator or adopter.. - Site Canons must have at least one active thread at all times. - Misuse or abuse of any site canon may result in the character being withdrawn from the member's possession without the member's consent. - Members do not own site canons, therefore it is forbidden to remold a character's personality, appearance, or relationships without approval by staff member. They also cannot be transferred or copied on another site, period. - If any problem between canons or wanted ads become consistent, action will be taken in order to resolve issues. This includes warnings, temporary bans, or the request to remove a character all together.
