you can do this.

PART 4

Rules, Requirements and Advice

16
RULES

╺ Don’t bully anyone. If you feel you are being

bullied or you witness it, speak to someone. We
WILL sort it.

╺ Don’t share anything NSFW if there is any

possibility of someone under the age of 18
seeing it. We have and will report things to
relevant authorities if it’s necessary.

╺ Don’t discuss illegal things you may or may not

have done on any of our systems. We don’t want
to know and don’t want to be involved.

17
REQUIREMENTS

╺ You must turn up on time, correctly presented

and ready to go.

╺ Raise any issues you have with the appropriate

people.

╺ Ensure any information you share is correct.

18
ADVICE 1/2

╺ Don’t be THAT guy.

╺ Set your game up early so you avoid the

embarrassment of holding everyone else up
because you didn’t set a mod up right.

╺ Ask for help at any time other than session

times.

╺ Try not to get upset with people before speaking

to them about issues. Misunderstandings, due to
language barriers and the lack of body language,
are common.
19
ADVICE 2/2

╺ Try to avoid being the person who breaks

atmosphere. Although it’s a nice thought to try
and make people laugh, it can be frustrating
when things are going well and someone takes
everyone’s focus away by saying a movie quote
or similar.

20
