Title: Validity of a Ban
Post by Sintaros on 11/23/03 at 05:57:43

>:(
I would like to know where it is printed that you cannot use colors in open chat and clan positions and such. I checked over the rules on the main site and nothing regards the use of coloration of text. Zephie banned me for using colors (/who Sintaros), and i was not aware that using colors was a bannable offense. If it is, I would just like to know where the rule is that prohibits the use of colors.

Thank you.

It's a bug, and abusing a bug is a bannable offense.

Ok, I'm not exactly a forum person. I don't sit around and read the forums all day. I had no way of knowing it was a bug. It could just have easily been a command set into the game deliberately. However, I can see how it can be abused and I will not use it in the future. I do believe, however, that I was banned unreasonably for information that was not presented to me. I recently started playing again about a week ago. I guess I am just uninformed of what has happened since I was gone. (Yeah, keep me off the streets, I use colors in text, I belong in a prison somewhere with the real criminals.) ( ) = sarcasm
