eBook Distribution

Any discussion of
distribution will be swiftly
dealt with by the staff

As per Scholastic's demands, RAF can no longer sanction the distribution of Scholastic eBooks, nor the implied distribution through other means. We hope that our members will abide by our decisions and will honor Scholastic and RAF's request that the eBooks remain defunct.

Feel free to converse.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Thanks to Parker for his 2nd donation!

RAF would like to thank Parker (currently Darth Revan) for donating a second time.
Enjoy your karma, we appreciate your support!

Scholastic's Letter to RAF

Yesterday, I removed the RAF eBooks page of RAF which hosted the Animorphs eBooks and halted the eBook Project started over three (3) years ago. This comes on the heels of a very stern letter sent from a lawyer of Scholastic, the publishers of the Animorphs series.

Though Animorphs has long not been published, RAF, they claim, is infringing on their trademark of "Animorphs", and by having the "unauthorized" Animorphs eBooks online, "creates a likelihood of confusion as to the source of origin of the goods and services you provide and is likely to deceive and confuse customers into believing that (you) are owned or endorsed by Scholastic..."

I have therefore removed the eBoooks, and added a note on the website saying we are not affiliated with Scholastic, and replied to this letter in an attempt to remedy the situation.

What is for certain though, is that we will no longer provide eBooks for the Animorphs series or any Scholastic publication. What we will still continue to provide is a great Animorphs community for the few that still enjoy the series.

Feel free to discuss.

There is a great possibility that in the next week major changes will have to be made to RAF.

More Changes to RAF Donors

Beginning today, there will be not only two ranks for members who donate, but three.

Here's the new breakdown:

Donor ($5-$9.99)
9 Stars -
Position lasts for 6 months - Same as Gods + 1000 personal messages + 10 Karma points + access to D-Lounge

Silver Donor ($10-$49.99)
9 Stars -
Same as Donor + position lasts for 1 year + 20 Karma points

Gold Donor ($50+)
10 Stars -
Same as Silver Donor + unlimited personal messages + 50 Karma Points + gold color + position lasts forever + no advertisements on the forum

So here's what really happened:

1. "Donator" has been renamed to the more conventional "Donor".
2. If you donate less than $10 dollars your position will expire in 6 months.
3. If you donate more than $10 but less than $50 you will get 20 karma points (Silver Donor).
3. Gold Members has been renamed Gold Donors.

What is Animafia?

If you were wondering how to play, here's a bit more details about our forum's Animafia game.

(Ani)mafia is played by a group of RAFians on either the mafia or the civilian's team - along with a game moderator. Certain members may also be given special roles, such as the medic or the cop.

At the beginning of the game, the moderator gives everybody their roles (via pm), which must be kept secret.  During the night, the mafia  decide who to kill off and the special roles get to perform their abilities. When day breaks, the town can lynch someone they suspect to be mafia by means of voting. The game continues, alternating between night and day, until one side is eliminated.


Here's a link to the board and more detailed rules.
