Stealing

Go ahead and try! Stallions often try their skills at stealing mares from another. But be warned: you might be the victim one day. It is a place of trickery and deceit - where the wittiest make their mark. Be sure to check the rules first though!

NEW RULE (effective 4/17/2011):
- TIME LIMITS
For kingdoms: the maximum time a horse may be forced to stay captive is 1 Beqanna year (or one real life month). The captivity will start the day the horse first posts in the kingdom.
For Herds: there is no maximum time a mare may be stolen for.
- REGARDING CHALLENGING/STEALING BACK
For kingdoms: a horse cannot be stolen/challenged for or steal/challenge for themselves until 6 BQ months have passed (2 real life weeks). The time limit will start the day the horse first posts in the kingdom. After the 2 weeks have passed, the captive and any other horse are free to steal/challenge for the captive horse’s freedom.
For herds: a mare cannot be stolen/challenged for or steal/challenge for themselves until 1 BQ year (1 real life month) has passed. The time limit will start the day the horse first posts in the kingdom.
After the month has passed, the mare and any other horse are free to steal/challenge for the mare’s freedom.

Time limits can be lessened by the stealer/challengers, but cannot be lengthened unless both players agree on the extensions. The challenged can add their own terms, but the challenger must still agree with them.

Please remember to state how many horses you are attempting to steal, and also include whether you are stealing from a herd or a kingdom (e.g. 2 from a kingdom)
