The Correct Description

[Akkaido Kivikar]

So why the re-posting in your own words? I'm pretty sure that all players of PlaneShift are intelligent enough to read the news section, and in the event that they aren't, a GM can direct them to it.

@ Akkaido:

There are a few mandatory rules set up by the project leaders which are enforced by the GMs. They are the rules which tell people how PlaneShift must be played or a player may be banned if ignoring them on purpose.

1) They are similar to an EULA and related to common rules of behaviour (like the Netiquette).
2) They had to be defined due to reasons...
3) They should be no burden to all people who were raised to be polite and cooperative.

If players are intelligent enough to be able to read such rules and agree to them, is one question. Another question is if they decide to do so. Unfortunately, not all do.

Pessimists may tell us now how senseless it is to post another thread about a topic, because those few would not be willing to read this one as well.

I don't care about those few pessimists and those few nuisances. I do it for all the others.

My point is that the players know all this already, and I see no point in yet another discussion thread.

It's the GMs problem to sort, not ours. Most of the players who have long annoying descriptions probably don't read the forums.

Not all players do know this, and I believe the topic is helpful for some who have read it.
I know that the topic has had positive impact, several of my friends changed their descriptions to be more fitting to the IC rules and their respective roleplays.
