.DT General Rules $MUDNAME$ concepts help General Rules .SH Player Rights .SH Purpose .SP 5 5 These rights are detailed here to enable players to know which rights they go under on $MUDNAME$. However, these rights do not, and never will, provide a loophole to avoid punishment for rule-breaking. .EP .SH Tells .SP 5 5 You have the right to know when your tell history is being checked. This notification happens automatically when it occurs, and your tell history can only be checked by Lords or higher. Furthermore, this will only happen with your permission, or to confirm a harrassment case that another person has brought against you. .EP .SH Say .SP 5 5 You have the right to know when your say history is being checked. This notification happens automatically when it occurs, and your say history can only be checked by Admin. Furthermore, this will only happen with your permission, or to confirm a harassment case that another person has brought against you. .EP .SH Snoop .SP 5 5 You have the right to know when you are being snooped unless by a Lord or higher. Furthermore, Lords and higher will almost never use a quiet snoop except in the most exceptional of circumstances. Notification of being snooped will occur when snooping is started, and will include the name of the creator who is snooping you. Snoop is usually used only to confirm a bug, or a harassment case. .EP .SH Entrapment .SP 5 5 Many of you may be familiar with the notion of entrapment. In basic summary, it is enticing someone to do something illegal that normally they would avoid doing. The notion of entrapment does not exist upon $MUDNAME$, however, no creator may take more than a passive role in confirming a break in the rules. .EP .SH Summary .SP 5 5 As stated before, a break in these rights does not grant you immunity from punishment from breaking the rules. However, these are the rules all creator/player interactions are governed by. If for any reason you feel your rights are being compromised, please mail Admin with ALL pertinant information. Please remember that persecution of those that break the rules will outweigh the rights of the individual, as the most important right of all is for those who abide by the rules to have their enjoyment of the game free from compromise by those who break the rules. .EP
