Revision as of 13:31, 26 April 2017

A hobby like RP of one that exposes players to many other players who have their own opinions, likes, dislikes and experiences. For this reason discussions and jokes about touchy topics can result in disagreements. We're adults and we live in the adult world, so out motto here is simple: Be Respectful.

In order to keep tempers down and personal opinions from turning into heated arguments, the staff have set the following rules on the Channels and the OOC Lounge.

• The Public Channel is [Family Friendly]. Please keep fowl language to a minimum.
• For no reason should 'adult matters' become a discussion topic.
• For no reason should OOC government or social politics, topics of sexuality or OOC religion be mentioned on channel.
• Staff will tolerate no form of bullying on channel.
• Absolutely no slander will be tolerated, this includes degrading comments about another player or another game.

It is important that players remember that everyone has a right to feel the way they feel, but no one has the right to rune the enjoyment of others.

If any any time a player requests that a topic be changed due to discomfort, the policy is that the topic be dropped, or takn to pages. This game should be welcoming to everyone.

Also please remember that:

• An apology goes a long way.
• Being polite is a better way to have others respect you.
• Being a jerk just makes people /want/ to cause you discomfort, don't play the game.

In short, just remember that we are all people and all people deserve respect.

Players will receive /one/ warning and should they ignore it, they will be removed and all characters recycled without hesitation.
