Message: <blockquote data-quote="WizO_Reesa" data-source="post: 2564345">Re: Just a few questionsIt has always been the same way - if someone in your family decides to use your character and messes up, or uses a new character and gains themselves an IP Ban, then you'd be removed as well.  Fortunately though, that happens very rarely.Actually, no.  As before, if you ever find yourself in a situation where you feel a WizO has acted unfairly (Bad mood, for example) then you can write <a href="mailto:adele@wizardsmoderator.com">adele@wizardsmoderator.com</a> and ask her about it. As the Lead for the ISRP Area, Adele can review what's going on. No WizO should take a bad mood out on someone. That's unfair. We are to uphold the CoC, not make issues personal.Both Rhane and Karalyn touched on this very nicely. I did want to add that speaking any language other than English can be considered disruption. The site is American based and, therefore, English speaking. Speaking a word or two of another language, or a sentence, is fine. However, having an extended conversation will get you a warning. (First a nudge to speak English, then a warning if you ignore the nudge). Karalyn handled this really nicely but I thought I'd add my own thoughts.  While it's always good to ask for permission on site via PMs, some people you know you can do stuff to/with just because you know what they're like. For example - Reesa is always teasing Nevine or giving him a hard time. I know that I can give Nevine a hard time, so I don't ask him permission.  Generally acting IC won't get you in trouble. Like Karalyn said, if someone asks you to stop in Pms, then respect their wishes. If someone claims you are harassing them, it will be fully investigated and yes, it does gain both sides of the story. I know this for a fact since I had to help deal with a harassment issue and had to get all parties involved to write Adele so it could be handled correctly.I really think the main issue is people walking behind the bar and serving, acting as if they are WizOs, WotC employees etc. There are some in character acts where you're allowed to do "official" things, like bus tables or muck the stalls for example. I really don't think your character claiming to own the tavern would be considered to be impersonation. The main thing to remember is this: What does it look like to others?  By this I mean that your buddies may know your character really doesn't own the CRT but a new player or someone outside of your circle of friendship might mistake that to be an "official" person.Let's see ... another example would be for "Reesa" to be in the Emporium as a regular person and tell others she's "Marshal Reesa" (known as WizO Reesa). Because there is no "WizO" before the name, that is considered impersonation.  I hope that helps explain my comment better.  You will not have to worry about one WizO giving you a gentle prod then another Wizo deciding something harsher is needed unless there is a complaint about it. For example - you come into the CRT and start talking about or rather hinting about sex. The WizO on duty might nudge you about it, so you change your speech until the WizO leaves. Once they leave, you start changing your talk to once again discussing or hinting at sexual contents. They complain to another WizO or to Adele, who then reviews the issue and finds that yes, you do deserve to be warned about it. In that case, you'd receive an official warning.  In MOST cases, however, the gentle nudge will be enough.As I said earlier, if you ever receive a warning and feel the WizO was too harsh, or you don't agree, write in about it. The issue will be reviewed. ~ Reesa</blockquote>
