  Anomaly TrekMUX has been painstakingly created for you, the player, with the
  express intention of providing an enjoyable role playing environment for 
  everyone.  As with everything, there are some rules and guidelines that must
  be observed and followed to ensure that your roleplay is smooth, fun, and has
  minimum complications. 
  
  Note that these rules are not all inclusive. You can still violate the spirit
  of the rules. Just because you can find a loophole doesn't mean you're 
  allowed to do it. If there is any doubt whether or not your action is going
  to be perceived as in violation, you should contact staff immediately and
  ask.

  Age: By agreeing to play here, you are agreeing that you are at least 18 
  years-old. Minors are not allowed on Anomaly TrekMUX because of the dark
  nature of the theme. If you are found to be under aged, you will be asked to
  leave.
  
  Courtesy: As you enter the IC world, please remember that behind every 
  character is a human being with thoughts and feelings of their own. It is 
  therefore extremely important that you are courteous to both staff and 
  players at all times.
 
  Relax: Not everything is going to go your way. Miscommunications happen.
  Errors happen. Mistakes happen. But there is no reason to blow an OOC issue
  out of proportion. Try to overlook the minor annoyances. Remember, we
  are here to have fun, so put your feet up and chill out.

  Privacy: Please respect the privacy of others.  Do not enter private rooms
  without the prior permission from the owner. OOC spying devices that are set
  DARK are also prohibited. Spying OOC is considered a form of harassment.
  Abusing code is considered spying.
  
  Spamming: Please do not spam people, whether it is through channels, @mail,
  or pages. It is extremely annoying, and it can waste valuable machine space
  on the host. Excessive use of the OOC communication in an IC area can be
  considered spamming - please be courteous when in public RP situations.
  
  Spoofing: Spoofing other players is strictly forbidden, unless written 
  approval is given to the RP Wizards by the spoofed player prior to the 
  spoofing event. Anything else that can be considered spoofing (even if it
  is silly in nature and not meant seriously) is forbidden. Don't do it.
  
  @walls: Sending fake @walls by any means is not permitted under any 
  circumstance.

  Approval: Characters that are set UNINSPECTED are not ready for roleplay and
  should not participate in any roleplay at all. Until those characters have
  been inspected by an appropriate wizard, they are considered OOC.  Players 
  who are UNINSPECTED and are caught roleplaying (or roleplaying unapproved 
  stats) will face a retcon of that roleplay scene and may be ejected from the
  game.
 
  Arguing: Do not argue with staff. If you disagree with something that 
  someone on staff has done, there is a procedure to follow. See 'news 
  complaints'. 

  Infighting: Do not argue or fight OOC with other players. You are expected
  to work out equitable solutions on your own without staff intervention. We
  are not here to baby sit. Staff will not care who is right and who is wrong,
  as all fighting parties will be ejected from the game permananetly. This also
  covers being OOCly insultory. Behave maturely.

  The producer's word: Anomaly TrekMUX is a game designed for you, the player,
  and run by the Producer. As such, you are expected to behave as though you 
  are in the producer's own home.  The producer has the right to refuse anyone
  to play here, and holds the right to forcibly eject someone for any reason.
 
  The producer tries to be just and fair, and rarely makes arbitrary decisions
  without discussion among other staff and players. Just as in the producer's
  house, the producer has the final word in all matters. If you as a player 
  have a problem with this policy, we suggest you find somewhere else to play.
   
  This is not to say that you do not have a voice, you do. Let staff know what
  you would like to see, and every effort will be made to accommodate you. But
  ultimately, the final word rests on the producer.
