       |                                                               |
       |                 a s   w r i t t e n   f o r                   |
       |                                                               |
       |                     I M M O R T A L S                         |
       |                                                               |
       |                                                               |
       |                                                               |
       |  1. Ignorance of the rules is no excuse.                      |
       |                                                               |
       |  2. Do not kill mortal players. Period. You do need a really  |
       |     brilliant excuse for it.                                  |
       |                                                               |
       |  3. Do not cheat for ANY mortal in ANY way,  especially your  |
       |     own. Unless of course you LIKE deletion. This includes:   |
       |     * Giving them equipment.                                  |
       |     * Casting various spells on them.                         |
       |     * Giving them information about other players.            |
       |     * Transporting mobs to players and vice versa, softening  |
       |       and other types of tampering with the mobs.             |
       |     * Pardoning, restoring and setting their stats for other  |
       |       than TEST purposes. You must also note other immortals  |
       |       about it. In general, try to avoid testing with actual  |
       |       players. Should you need a testchar, ask the Creators   |
       |       or Implementors for help.                               |
       |     * Ignoring their violations of the Rules of Stonia. Just  |
       |       remember, you will be held responsible if we find out   |
       |       that you were aware of the violation and did not react. |
       |       There are measures for getting information like this.   |
       |                                                               |
       |  4. The rules about multiplay apply to you as well. You must  |
       |     wait at least 3 minutes between logging out (or leaving   |
       |     your immortal linkless) and logging in with your mortal.  |
       |     You are allowed, however, to come in with your immortal   |
       |     char straight after your mortal char has left the game.   |
       |                                                               |
       |  5. Should either you or your mortal char violate a rule, it  |
       |     won't make any difference for other immortals. Since you  |
       |     have been trusted an immortal character, you should act   |
       |     accordingly. Make your own conclusions.                   |
       |                                                               |
       |  6. A note on quests: Quests are a good thing, more or less,  |
       |     but do NOT give out very extravagant prizes. Try typing   |
       |     'help quest' to get some more information on this topic.  |
       |                                                               |
       |  7. Do not undermine the authority of a higher level  god.    |
       |     If you see that some player has been punished by another  |
       |     immortal, do not remove the punishment without a very     |
       |     good reason for it. Do not try to overrule each other.    |
       |                                                               |
       |  8. Do not give out your immortal character to other people   |
       |     or you'll be deleted.                                     |
       |                                                               |
       |  9. Do not give out experience or equipment reimbursements    |
       |     unless it is really obvious that it was due to a bug.     |
       |                                                               |
       |  10. Notify other immortals about your actions that include,  |
       |      for example, quests, punishments as well as bugs and any |
       |      kinds of discrepancies, problems, ideas etc.             |
       |                                                               |
       |                                                               |
