Help System

1. Public channels (shout, yell, dream) are for game-related subjects only.
Usage of these channels for debates about real-life subjects (including, but
not limited to: other games and websites, sports, the amount of lag on the
Internet, and most current events) is expressly forbidden. This kind of
talk disrupts roleplaying players and hurts the fantasy environment of the
game. This also includes using public channels to spout song lyrics and
nonsense words.

2. Do not use the public channels to bash or otherwise berate a character.
Players who willingly participate in abrasive situations should expect their
complaints to be reviewed less stringently than others who are innocently
attacked.

3. Profane or abusive language is not tolerated on any of the public
channels of the game. This includes "masking" the words by inserting, deleting
or substituting characters, spaces, etc. Many people in Materia Magica attempt
to roleplay, and activities such as the ones outlined above can disturb
the sense of immersion that these type of gamers crave.

4. Do not use color codes to send excessively brilliant multicolored and
inverse colored messages over public channels, use them in your player
descriptions, or titles. Use of color codes within the game is a privilege
and can be revoked. The Administrators and Immortals will make the
determination of intent to annoy.
