Mush news:Policies

General

This is a game designed to be played for enjoyment. If it isn't enjoyable, don't play. Please do let us know what's wrong, however.

Mush news:Ethics policy

These are the standards that we hold our staff to. See 'news ethics policy'

Mush news:Copyright

We believe in open access. Toward that end, we share most of our local content. This file includes our copyright and licensing information. See 'news copyright'

Golden Rule

This is basically a non-consent game. However, people are able to fade scenes that make them uncomfortable. Ultimately, this falls into being understanding of others' play styles. This doesn't protect anyone from consequences, however. They still happen, just off-camera. In addition, make sure to keep aggression in character. Out of character aggression will not be tolerated.

Characters and staff

We wish to support interesting, well-played characters. We are not trying to cripple supernaturals and will generally not reject concepts without hearing them. If you really need that fifth dot, consider why it's justified. We might like your answer. We might not. Be willing to explore; this is a game of shared stories, not a reality simulation.

Staff and Spheres

All spheres are subject to uniform policy defined by Lemuria and/or Troy and Thenomain. RP staff tells stories; build staff builds; code staff codes. Upper staff sets policy. Spheres are not isolated or independent.

Mush news:Alts

How many alts you can have & what you shouldn't be doing with them. See 'news alts'.

Staff Alts

Admins & Storytellers may have PCs in spheres they staff, under certain conditions. See 'news alts 2'

NPCs

NPCs exist to provide background, texture, and a growth structure for each sphere. NPCs are not PCs with an N in front. They are props to further a story.

Age

This is a game of adults, by adults, for adults. No PCs under the apparent or actual physical, emotional or mental age of 18 are permitted under any circumstances. Played by models must also be at least 18 years of age and appear that way too.

Staff

Staff are restricted from venting about players on any channel. This is strictly not allowed.
