AU has very strict policies about language that is allowable on our forums. We try to maintain a controlled environment without cursing and crude language. We believe that with a little foresight and thought, insults containing curse words can be modified and rephrased without the use of vulgar language. These reworded insults oftentimes are more effective and have a greater impact than their vulgar alternative.
All of our channels are rated PG to provide an environment that is friendly to players of all ages. We believe that the creative use of ic insults can provide more roleplay and a better atmosphere for Adventures Unlimited.
The following is a list of rules regarding the channels on AU.
1. The MUD's channels and notes are rated PG. Do not use words that are out of this context. About the only allowable cuss-words are Damn and Hell. Any over-use of these will be dealt with as well.
2.Crude sexual comments are not allowed. This rule includes comments on sexual orientation (i.e. You are gay ? or anything worse than this).
3.Symbols may not be used in place of letters to subvert these regulations (i.e. F@CK). Other abbreviations that subvert these rules are also not allowed (i.e. Wtf).
4.Topics such as religion, politics, sexual orientation, race, nationality, self pity, drugs and alcohol, and cruelty to animals are not allowed on ooc channels.
5.The message boards, note boards, titles and rtitles are subject to these regulations.
6.Any language deemed inappropriate by a channel monitor or immortal will immediately be ceased by the offending player. Language in descriptions, titles, or rtitles that are deemed inappropriate shall be changed immediately without argument.
7. Repeated insults (i.e. calling someone a whore) are inappropriate. If you cannot come up with something new, you will need to just
be quiet.
