1: (admin) Equipment on the ground
 From: admin
 Subject: Equipment on the ground
 Equipment dropped on the ground is fair game for all.

 By dropped equipment, I mean that that you drop.  This does not include
 equipment that is removed from you without your consent, such as when you
 die.  Zombies used to retrieve corpses are NOT to be messed with if they
 are in the possession of eq.  Other cases of this sort:
 Corpses
 Zapped equipment
 Disarmed weapons
 Corpse eq (after the corpse has been eaten)
 Equipment donated for the purposes of a corpse retrieval

2: (admin) General player interaction rules
 From: admin
 Subject: General player interaction rules
 This mud is populated by others, and you have the obligation to obey certain
 laws of courtesy.  Below are some of them -
 It is illegal to:
         dispel a player unless asked to do so by that player.
         rob a players corpse without their permission.
         take a players equipment if their corpse is eaten or otherwise
             disposed of.
         take a weapon from a disarmed player.
         summon mobs to "populated areas" such as town, mud school, or 
             immediate paths from town.
         kill a corpse retrieval zombie and sac the equipment on it.

 It is also illegal to summon players against their will, especially to aggro
 mobs.  This will be considered a player kill, and the offender will be treated
 as such.

 If a mortal recites teleport on a mob, they are NOT responsible as to what the
 mob does or where it goes.  Gods may relocate the teleported mob, kill the mob
 ect.... but they may only but in back in its proper place, and only if the
 room is unoccupied by mortals.


3: (admin) Penalties
 From: admin
 Subject: Penalties
 Available penalties for breaking rules are:

 Booting:    You are forced to recall and quit.
 Disconnect: Your link is intentionally broken by a god.
 Freezing:   You are not allowed to do anything at all.
 Denial:     Your character is not allowed to log on to the mud.
 Siteban:    Your IP (or entire class C address set) will be banned.
 Purging:    You loose all your equipment.
 Archiving:  Your character is put in storage.
 Deletion:   Your character disappears.  Forever.

 These are somewhat in order of increasing harshness, and I hope we dont have
 to use them at all.

4: (admin) Player harassment
 From: admin
 Subject: Player harassment
 It has come to my attention that certain players are being harassed by other
 players.  I find this somewhat annoying, as I thought people would be a bit
 more responsible than this.  Since it is obvious that that is not the case,
 I'm making a rule against it with punishment.  

 First offense:  Warning.
 Second offense: You will be frozen for 3 days.
 Third offense:  You will be frozen for two weeks.
 Continued offenses: Your characters will be deleted, sites will be banned, etc.

 Harassment of a mortal by a god is grounds for immediate dismissal of that god.
 I do not take this sort of thing lightly, and all gods regardless of level are
 advised to do the same. 


5: (admin) Duping and storage characters
 From: admin
 Subject: Duping and storage characters
 In light of a recent problem, I have decided on a policy for storage characters
 and equipment duping.  If you intentionally attempt to duplicate a large amount
 of equipment, I reserve the right to forfeit the duplications AND originals.
 Characters from this point on will only be allowed one storage character per
 main character.  I realize that this is somewhat difficult to enforce, but if
 I find 5 characters that are all level 1 holding 500 pounds of stuff, who are
 happily packing and trading eq about, I will quite happily delete whichever I
 find more offensive.  You know who you are.

6: (admin) player killing
 From: admin
 Subject: player killing
 Pking (player killing) is defined as the intentional (or occasionally
 accidental) death of a player directly as a result of the actions of another
 player.
 This includes summoning a monster to a player, summoning a player to a monster
 without thier knowledge, or forcing a charmed character to attack a player.
 There are also other ways, which will be treated as pking as defined above.
 This does not include characters who join a group willingly, who enter into
 battle knowing the risks.

 The penalties for player killing in this (or any other fashion) are going be be
 severe.  The lightest offenses will be archiving of the character for a short
 period of time.  Obvious, blatant, repeated attempts to do this will result in
 freezing, purging, or outright denial of the character.

8: (admin) pkok rule, an important one
 From: admin
 Subject: pkok rule, an important one
 Format:
 pkok
 pkok <your name>

 The pkok command is used to register yourself for player killing.  With no
 arguments, it gives a description of what it does.  With any argument, it
 sets you to playerkilling.

 Once you register for player killing, the flag can only be removed by leaving
 the game and re-enterg.

 If you are killed by another player killer, you will not lose experience or
 equipment.  NOTE, HOWEVER, that being killed by a mob WILL take away your
 exp, and leave your corpse wherever you died.

 In leiu of this, it is illegal to pkill someone in such a way that they lose
 experience or equipment.  This inludes summoning them to a mob, summoning a
 mob to them, using charmed mobs, or anything else like that.

 This is taken directly from the help page on pkok.  I hope this clears things
 up a little bit.

 Subject: Multiplaying
 Effective immediately players shall be allowed one active character
 logged into the mud at any given time.  This rule will be enforced.

 The only exception will be the brief logging in of a storage character
 for the exchanging of eq.

14: Feb 23 19:03 (dentin) Channel Censorship
 From: dentin
 Subject: Channel Censorship
 First of all, 'newbie' is the only heavily monitored and censored channel.
 Newbie is the primary channel people see when they first log in - it should
 make a good impression on them, and they shouldn't have to deal with extra
 noise on it.

 Gossip, shout, and yell are also monitored, and you may be asked to curb
 your language on those channels.  They should be clean enough for a 10 year
 old to listen to.  This is of course rather subjective.  Cursing is usually
 fine, but excessively graphical topics are not.  These channels are limited
 because they are universal channels that most people have on.

 Auction should be kept to what auction is for.  The user defined (#)
 channels are pretty much free game.

 Spamming a channel, any channel, is a deadly offense.  Don't spam.

 First annoyance (offense) you will be asked to use tell, say, or some other
 channel. After that you maybe booted, no-gossiped, or frozen.  Keep in mind
 that all kinds of people, and all ages play this mud.
