Proposal: Fair Play
High Command doesn’t have the ability to metagame very well, so has little to say on the subject.
Reporting, Devenger.

[ Moving the spam/tampering/multi-account rules out into the glossary, and adding a couple more, in reaction to Darth Cliche blanking his own suggestion to Wakukee, and apparently editing Wakukee’s response. We already have some expected behaviour for blanking posts - even if it’s spam, we archive it on the wiki - so it wouldn’t hurt to write this down and make sure everyone plays by the same rules. ]
Replace the final three paragraphs of Rule 1.2 (Soldier) with:-
A Soldier must abide by the rules of fair play in Glossary section 3.6.
Add a new Glossary section 3.6, “Fair Play”:-
The following are BlogNomic’s rules of fair play. If any of the rules are found to have been broken, a proposal or CfJ may be made to remove the perpetrator from the game, and bar them from rejoining.
- A single person should not control more than one Soldier within BlogNomic.
- A Soldier should not “spam” the BlogNomic blog. What counts as spamming is subjective, but would typically include posting more than ten blog entries in a day, more than ten blog comments in a row, or posting a blog entry of more than 1000 words.
- A Soldier should not deliberately exploit bugs or unexpected behaviours in the software running the game (ExpressionEngine, MediaWiki or the GNDT).
- Instead of deleting content from a blog post which has at least one comment, the content should either be struck through with <strike> tags, or replaced with a link to a copy of the same content on the wiki.
- A Soldier should not edit their own blog comments once posted, nor those of any other Soldier.
Wak specifically asked me to delete his comments, however. (I only know how to edit comments, not delete them.)
I think the last rule prevents the fixing of typos.
