A. Improper use of authority. This includes (but is not limited to): 
   
    1. Excessive Spanners (throwing other people into a "grand scheme") 
      when the person that you are spanning has indicated that they do not care 
      for such.
 2. Deletion of posts  permanent deletion of an IC post written by 
      a player (other than yourself) must have Kethryns approval. Other 
      deletions are permitted if they are OOC and are offensive and/or spam
3. Attempted coups  strangely  and unfortunately -- this had 
      to be included 
  
  B. God modding - this will be allowed only under strict guidelines and with 
    Kethryns approval
C. Abuse of members -
   
     1. Swearing - swearing at a member under any circumstances is strictly 
      prohibited.
 2. Insulting members 
     
      i. Do not tell members that they are stupid/bad posters/etc (no negative 
        comments).
 ii. Refrain from telling members how to post but if you must, use the 
        phrase "in my opinion" or "I feel like." 
    
  
  D. Bashing of the old staff is strictly prohibited. 
  A. All punishments will be decided as quickly as Kethryn can be contacted 
    and given time to reach a decision. If she is expected to be gone for an extended 
    period she will hand such decision making over to another staffer. 
B. Opinions on violations from all staff members are encouraged. The final 
    decision made on violations will be Kethryns, or in her absence, her 
    temporary replacement 
C. If staff needs to make a judgment on a non staff member, then they must 
    have a majority consenting vote of at least three staff members to enact punishment 
    and only if Kethryn is not there to sit judgment. 
D. All punishments will be accompanied by an email explaining what the offender 
    did, what the punishment entails, and why the decision was reached. 
E. Polls may be used to decide if a person will be punished but the punishment 
    level (non staff) will be as outlined on the home page of the forum - no exceptions 
    to this rule.
