The RoPets Wiki has its own set of policies and guidelines that users are required to follow to ensure proper interaction between users on the wiki. The RoPets Wiki's Staff Team strives to give its users the best information regarding RoPets and handles any misconduct of policies through discussion or a specified sanctions policy.
The terms "Policies" and "Guidelines", as referred to in this article, vary completely and may or may not match their real-life definition. As such, the definition provided below should be deemed to be applicable to the RoPets Wiki only unless stated otherwise.
- Policies: Policies refer to a set of rules that specify an appropriate conduct expected to be followed by all members of the RoPets Wiki. These set of rules are regulated frequently and are used to improve coordination amongst wiki users. Continual violation of policies may lead to sanctions according to the wiki's infractions policy.
- Guidelines: The amount or polity of guidelines on the RoPets Wiki are frequently altered to accommodate users and are thus, unstable and not enforced. Users are not required to follow these guidelines, but it is advisable for them to do so in order to improve their as well as other users' experience on the RoPets Wiki. No user may ever be sanctioned or punished for violating a guideline.
Any members of the voluntary staff team will never claim that the wiki is affiliated with Supersolid or its likings, which include developers that may have contributed to RoPets. Although developers or stars might occasionally appear on the wiki, their presence does not confirm any affiliation.
