[IMPORTANT - RULE UPDATE] Rule 8

Discussion in 'Empire News' started by JackBiggin, Feb 23, 2014.

  1. In light of recent events (and ones that happened very long ago in the past), the rules have received a small update. This rule has always applied to EMC, but to avoid any confusion, has been bumped up to a major rule.

    8. Intentionally causing public drama is not allowed
    Intentionally doing anything that is likely to cause public upset, arguments, riots, or any other negative action, for any reason, is not allowed. Players who are upset with a moderation decision, or any other action should contact the Community Managers. They should not use any of EMC's features, including, but not limited to the forums, and in-game chat to intentionally cause drama.

    The original rule 8 has now been bumped down to rule 9. Rule 7 has had additional clarification that PvP IS allowed in /v pvp... yes, apparently that wasn't obvious.

    As always, the rules are available at http://rules.emc.gs for your gracious viewing. :D

  3. Just a note that in term of the specific rule, drama refers to the explanation given under the heading. :p
  4. Oh no, wouldn't want to put on a show in front of a server!
    (This is a joke :p)
