[ Sensitive Subjects ]
Just a couple things the mods have been talking over lately that we need to pass on to you guys:
1. IC Chat or AIM logs are not considered game canon unless all parties involved are okay with it. It's fine to bring chat events into canon; please post a log somewhere if you do, so interested parties can follow what's going on.
2. We felt it best to deal with this before it becomes a problem. Controversy is fun to play, but certain plot topics are more sensitive than others. We'd like them run past a mod first, just to make sure that everyone's not overloading the comm with them (like when we had over 9000 killings at once) and the player plans to handle them maturely. "Sensitive topics" here include rape; pregnancy and especially means of ending it (e.g. abortion, miscarriage); death; suicide. (If we missed something important, please tell us here; we recommend always erring on the side of caution.)
2-a: As we mods monitor, we reserve the right to end a plot that oversteps sensitive boundaries; especially if there is no mod approval, player disagreement on handling of sensitive topics, or complaints.
3. In addition, please talk to the other mun first and warn the rest of us if your character is going to be using explicit racist or otherwise offensive language. Swearing in posts is fine, but if it's in 60 point blinking red font or your character is the type to drop slurs, please cut and warn for content.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask in the comments!
