 ====== The GM Codec ====== ====== The GM Codec ======

 +===== Staff =====
 +
 +==== Conduct ====
 +
 +All staff are expected to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner befitting their position.  This should be common sense.
 +
 +If you have questions on conduct please ask the lead GM or Xype.
 +
 +==== Relationships ====
 +
 +Staff are not allowed to have a romantic/partner relationship with a player.  The only exception is if the relationship existed before being promoted to staff.
 +
 +The staff-player dynamic has been proven to be problematic.  One or both of the players can end up leaving the server.  A falling out can then reflect badly on the Mythmoor server and its staff.  The goal here is to maintain integrity, not only for our authority, but for the good of the server.
 +
 +A staff member is welcome to pursue a relationship with a player, but they must resign their post first.
 +
 +If you have questions on relationships please ask the lead GM or Xype.

 +===== Punishments =====
  
 In the past GM’s have had to take action with no clear set of defined punishments outlined. This Codec is an attempt to make a uniform set of instructions on how to deal out punishments in situations. Some of these also apply to Chat Moderators. I am making this Codec a post that is available to the public so there can be no confusion between staff and players on how a situation was dealt with. This Codec may need tweaking and adjustments from time to time, so we reserve the right to make any changes at any time. In the past GM’s have had to take action with no clear set of defined punishments outlined.

 In most cases we do not need to moderate chat. Usually just letting someone know via a PM that they are getting a little out of hand is enough to temper a situation. However in the case the community is being disrupted and the player refuses a verbal warning the following is the rule thumbs on chat mutes: In most cases we do not need to moderate chat.

Line 21: Line 45:
 In the situation a ban is needed, which again is not often though sometimes the case arises. These are reserved for particularly disruptive community members, known repetitive exploiters and the like. In many cases dropping a few of Xype’s Secret Service on them is a more desirable punishment. If a ban is needed and issued, Xype should be alerted so that any website orders the player has done can be looked into to determine if there are any viable for refund. Any GM issuing a ban can not be overturned by any other GM other than Xype, all appeals for any ban or chat mute must go through Xype to be overturned, however it is very unlikely he will overturn any GM decision as he already made careful considerations on who is staff, and they have his full support. In the situation a ban is needed, which again is not often though sometimes the case arises.

 Note with the situation where Xype may look into viable refunds, as per the checkout terms no refunds is the policy, however He is very generous when it comes to giving people back their money who are no longer being allowed to play on the server. It is a case by case basis, and not guaranteed that refunds will be issued. Note with the situation where Xype may look into viable refunds, as per the checkout terms no refunds is the policy, however He is very generous when it comes to giving people back their money who are no longer being allowed to play on the server.

Line 39: Line 65:
 If a player curses the gods, or worse says the god is weak, an avatar can be dispatched on the player. That avatar can then do what they will. Gods are gods and what their avatars do is up to the gods. If a player curses the gods, or worse says the god is weak, an avatar can be dispatched on the player.
