Hello, and welcome to Gallop Free! We are a realistic (or as realistic as we can be) role playing website for most northern North-American species of wildlife. Feral animals are also accepted, and with mod approval, it is possible (though unlikely) to join a limited number of exotics. This means you can't join wildlife from around the world as with some sites, but you can join everything from fish and reptiles to mammals and birds! In fact, unlike some species-specific sites, Gallop Free encourages biodiversity, so do not hesitate to join as wide a variety of animals as you see fit.
Gallop Free has existed is some form or another for at least eight years now. We've come a long way from our humble start as a horses-only bravenet site, going through three administrators, numerous hosts, and all too many members. Animatus should be our permenant home, and neither the admins nor long-time members intend on going anywhere either! So please feel secure that this isn't one of those sites where you join and develop characters, just to see the whole place vanish in a few months.
Gallop Free may look small compared to other RPGs, but we have plenty to offer. Instead of creating vast numbers of territory-specific boards, we permit all species to interact in a few general terrains. This method of RPing permits everyone to have a chance at finding mates and claiming territory, instead of a the select few observed at other sites. What's more, regardless of your character's species, he or she has the chance to encounter everything from conspecifics to predators or prey - much more similar to a natural situation!
Unlike some sites where overbearing moderators control every aspect from mating to fighting, Gallop Free likes to hand control over to its members, encouraging creativity and individual plot development. You will never be involuntarily trapped in a pre-determined plot line at this site, nor will you be stuck waiting for some higher-up to give approval before you can have offspring, engage in battle, or begin RPing. That's right - if you fill out a join form, you can start playing immediately - no waiting period! Just be sure you read our very lax rules before joining; we believe in freedom, not anarchy.
Thanks so much for your interest in joining! I hope with sincerity that you enjoy your RPing experience here at Gallop Free!
Regards,
RW, Administrator
