1- The staff team reserves the right to put an end to a dispute or discussion by their word alone; it is further-expected that people are civil and willing to cooperate and communicate properly to one-another as adults in an environment that can, and potentially will, get heated.
Expletives are allowed to be used at your discretion, and controversial content (including politics, religion, etcetera) are allowed for discussion in an OOC environment, just as much as they are in the IC World.
2- Metagaming and Godmodding are absolutely prohibited. All actions in-game should be conducted from the perspective of your characters, not by your perspective. Metagaming is considered to be the act or intention of using OOC information — in particular information that you are not supposed to know ICly — to your advantage in-character, and Godmodding is considered to be the act or intention of controlling a player’s characters or actions outside of what is permissible by either the affected or by the Rules. Both are considered to be cheating, and cheating is highly frowned upon.
The punishment for Metagaming and Godmodding that is admitted to or enacted upon by the players or discovered by the staff team will be a WARNING and potential SUSPENSION by the Staff. Further incidents of Metagaming and Godmodding will be punished by a strict BAN from the forum, with a notice of leave and the potential to be REMOVED from any OOC groups.
3- While constructive criticism and pointing out flaws in other players’ roleplay style is perfectly acceptable, as it can help a roleplayer in desperate need of advise or looking to expand their horizons, it is not considered acceptable to harass or bully other players.
If you are criticizing or pointing out flaws in other players’ style, do it in a way that does not include derogatory insults. It is important to criticize, not belittle.
4- Administration and Moderation under "Worldwide Roleplay, Global Economics and Trade" are subject primarily to North American Timezones.
