In any respectable village there is a
Tavern or
Inn which provides drinks and meals. Certain taverns have rooms for travellers to stay.
All Inn keepers accept that one comes to chat in their tavern on condition that one buys a small drink. The price of a drink is very low so that everyone can use the tavern without bankrupting oneself.
Cheers!
What can be consumed there?
- Drinks: 0.2 fetis. Give half an hour of chat.
- Meal: 0.5 fetis. Give two hours of chat.
- Carrot juice: Great classic.
- Tomato soup: A soup for winter evenings where one needs to be warmed up.
- Beer: A popular drink amongst customers.
How to begin a conversation with someone
After you have bought a drink or meal, it is necessary to click on the icon
in the customer list.
Caution : you can only start 5 conversations per half hour!
How to choose an image
When you have bought a drink, just click on
[ Modify ] to modify within your framework on the left. A box named 'Profile' will appear and you will be able to choose a character, age, hobbies, etc.
What is the purpose of and ?
= esteem (you are well-liked)
= help (your help is appreciated)
A person who has received many thanks can start to have stars beside his or her name. One needs 10 votes to receive the first star or the first heart. The following ranks are summarised below :

How to get new points in order to vote?
When a shepherd begins his life in Moutonking he cannot immediately vote, nor to go to the tavern.
- With the first sheep's passage to level 2, the shepherd acquires 3 voting cards for esteem and 3 voting cards for help, that he will be able to bestow on whoever he wishes.
- With the first passage to level 3, the shepherd acquires 4 voting cards for esteem and 4 for help.
- With the first passage to level 4, the shepherd acquires 5 voting cards for esteem and 5 for help.
- With the first passage to level 5, the shepherd acquires 6 voting cards for esteem and 6 for help.
For the moment there are no other means to acquire the voting cards, but soon one will be able to find some whilst out on a walk!
How do I get people to vote for me?
The best way is to be pleasant and obliging. People who it can be proved have cheated will have to start again from zero or could even be prohibited access to the tavern.
I have a message which says "Not more than 5 conversations in half an hour." what does that mean?
The goal is to allow the correct operation of the tavern and the waiter. You have the right to receive as many conversations as you like, but you can only start 5 in half an hour.
It is like that for the time being. :)
How to finish a conversation?
When the conversation is open with someone, it is necessary to click on the small icon (
) to open the special menu.
Then click on
[ Close ].
Someone is annoying me, how can I block his messages?
When the conversation is open with someone, it is necessary to click on the small icon (
) to open the special menu.
Then click on
[ Ignore ].
You will not be able to send any more messages to the person concerned and will not receive any more messages from them. Blocked people are forgotten when you reconnect.
Protection of your privacy and details
Conversations are saved for fifteen minutes by Moutonking, and can in normally be read only by the two people taking part in them. When an abuse is flagged up, the conversation is retranscribed for the moderators who must then take whatever measures they judge to be needed.
The sanctions are as follows :
- warning
- final exclusion from the tavern
- letter to the host and registration of a complaint
In case of abuse of this system, the ability of a person to report an abuse can be withdrawn, this is so as to lighten the work of the moderators.
Using colors, smilies, etc
It is possible to use BBCode to improve the presentation of a message, see the article on the
post office. Smilies are disabled for the moment.
