About the Beekins

The Beekin Volunteer Program is the group of community members that use some of their free time to help the other players in Furcadia. The name comes from our benevolent Prime, Beekin the Help Dragon. The Beekin Helper Program consists of the Beekin Council and the Beekin Volunteers. The Associates also run the Beekin program.

Beekin Volunteers provide their assistance to all Furcadians with the aid of a help channel, some special training, and a general air of friendliness. They represent players from all areas of Furcadian life and have a target number of 10% to 30% of furre kind. These volunteers are not required to be on duty at all times of play and only sign on their channel or turn on their badges when feeling prepared to help. It should be mentioned that most Beekin Volunteers will not be there to handle trouble. Enforcement of rules is only the duty of Guardians and all trouble should be referred to them.

The Beekins are a volunteer program. This means anyone can apply if they meet the application requirements of the group that is being applied to.

The Guardians, previously known as 'The Owsla', are charged with enforcing the rules in Furcadia to keep troublesome behavior to a minimum. The Guardian should be patient and tolerant above all, mature and easy going, with a strong sense that this is his or her community and a desire to serve it. What the Guardians do not need are those with attitude, or power trippers, or status seekers. This position is not about being 'special'. It is about giving yourself to the community. This group is very limited and most who apply will not get the position. You must have been in Furcadia 6 months to apply.

Beekin WelcomersWelcomers

- E-mail the Welcomers

The Welcomers are a vital and important group of Beekins, since they are the first furres a new player is likely to meet. Welcomers influence whether or not a newfurre finds Furcadia an inviting and friendly place to be. They greet newfurres upon arrival in Furcadia, help with first steps in Furcadia, finding new friends, and if requested; show newfurres around. Welcomer Beekins are alerted when a newfurre arrives in the world and may "claim" the new arrival. There is a special welcome map where Welcomers watch over newfurres as they learn the basics of Furcadia. An ideal Welcomer is an active, friendly furre who loves Furcadia and other Furcadians. You must have been in Furcadia for at least 3 months to apply.
