Hey all.
After this announcement, I had added a Section 0 on the Game Rules, here.
Basically I want to replace Section 0 and Section 1 with this (aka separate thread).

1. It’s been a while since I read these rules. Were the rules in the first part new or there before. If there before has anything changed?
2. In reference to PMs. Is it still legal to make reference to PMs as in “that’s not what you said in PM. You told me x, y, z.” But not directly sharing a screen shot? Or is it illegal to even make an indirect reference to them w/o permission?
3. In terms of harassing. What constitutes “swearing”? Is it using cuss words in general or specifically calling someone a “x,y,z”? Or anything the target considers a slur? Of anything a bystander might consider a slur? That one might be too vague/ unenforceable in this context, especially on the discord where people talk all kinds of mad sh— all the time, but it also feels like there has to be another feature to it beyond simply “swearing”.
01 - Don't discuss warnings and bans on players publicly as it unnecessarily puts a target on them.
02 - Don't search for, circulate, publicly identify, publish or otherwise share personal information on players (doxxing).
03 - Don't impersonate anyone.
04 - Don't share private messages without permission.
05 - Don't discriminate against anyone on their use of English, understanding of other languages and use of Latin-script transliterations.
06 - Don't harass anyone.
07 - Don't spam.
- Harassing means swearing, insulting, attacking and discriminating against others on any basis, including but not limited to religion, political affiliation, sexual orientation, creed, colour, nationality and even preference on how to play the game.
- Spamming means sending unsolicited messages to a large number of recipients, posting in a large number of places and posting in a high level of frequency.
01 - On the game itself, this forum, the game's wiki and the game's Discord server
02 - By the game's creator (Wouter Lievens) and players directly appointed by him
03 - Players can reach out to the game's creator and his direct appointees on violations of these rules by other players, at any time
04 - Players violating them will receive a 30-day ban and then a permanent ban if they violate them again

1. Section was new, the points were collected from the rest of the sections. Nope, just the wording.
2. Would you be okay with me sharing publicly, anything you've said to me privately? No matter how I do it. You don't get to pick what.
3. Sure, but you can tell when swearing is meant to insult vs meant to banter, no? So I guess I'd say intent.
