Cybering : Why Is It No-Tolerance?

[Elrohir Sil'Siol 7]

Maybe someone should make a guid on using "fade to black", as odd as that souds...

Cybering is gross, I don't want to see it on the server. People don't have to do it on here many other internet sources can help you if you feel the need to cyber

Well put.

In the words of the shotgun-toting old-man - KEEP OFF MAH LAWN. Although, in this case, keep it off our server.

Just the fact that this had to be made... I am disappoint LotC.

Excellent post, Freya! I'll make sure to re-post this on our community pages. Great way to clear up the confusion.

Finally, a clear message.

I hope no one who has cybered outside of the forums or server takes this offensively. We just don't want to be sued or something.

• I don't want to see High Elves shouting "OI D**KHEAD!".
  
  

Am I the only person who can imagine a high elf shouting that with a scouse voice? ._.

[Austin 697]

By the way I often see people IG refering to others as C*NT or I sometimes call others D*CK Heads but thats because my goblin is pretty insane ;P

Basically, don't do anything you wouldn't do at a family reunion.

Well, I can't say the same for Cersei and Jaime Lannister... Their views are a bit...different.

I am willing to toe the bill to see two lovers get their freak on in real life, I don't want to watch of course 0_0. Trolol, but this seems to be needed to be said. Luckily we haven't seen 'b-tch, whine, moans' to this concrete warning!

I feel that due to the severity of the punishment given due to cybering, cybering should be something defined with powergaming and metagaming on the whitelist application.

Arguably it is more severe due to it being an indefinite ban over a temp ban from meta or power, and many people especially youth may not understand what cybering is and may assume that RP sex is okay.

It should definitely be prominently known that cybering is against the rules, but adding it onto the application would be going rather far. If I'd seen something like that on the server application when I was joining, I'd have run away. Quickly. It indicates that the server has lots of issues with cybering, and some people would conjure up images of creepers (the human, IRL kind.) everywhere.

Also, I never understood why people would break the rules for this at all. If someone wanted to ICly...engage in such activities, they could just fade to black in the server and use a third-party client of some sort to conduct their business. That way, it's no skin off our proverbial backs.

I somehow wonder why people RP Yiffing. When they KNOW it is against the rules O__O

Well, the problem is that people are lazy. They may not want to take the time to "switch over". Plus, there's the fact that I'd assume it's kind of awkward in general, even to the people who engage in it. Therefore, they'd like to be done with it as soon as possible. Taking the time to "switch over" to another program would most likely kill whatever little magic or feeling there is in it. Therefore, people find it simply better to bend the rules, thinking that they won't be caught, or simply do not realize that it's against the rules, considering how much else we can get away with.

I don't know why you'd want to cyber, eh...
