doobie - Jedi Council  |
These are the Academy's updated rules and regulations. I'm placing them here until DJ gets a chance to put them in the proper place. Mad props to Hardwired and Fizz for the updating! ::intro:: These are the rules you must follow. These rules apply to all servers and areas of the Jedi Academy, including IRC. If you are caught violating these, it will result in an official JA warning. You only get one warning. If you violate the rules again you will be banned from the Academy. These rules are not all-inclusive, so if you recive an order from an Academy staffmember (Knight, Trainer or Council member) obey it. If a rule violation occurs, take a screenshot or make a demo and report it to the nearest Knight or Trainer. In the case of emergency report it to a Council member. Also, these rules may be subject to change without notice. ::rules:: 1. Watch your mouths. A very small amount of swearing is ok, but if you take it over the top, you will get a warning. Racist/sexist/homophobic talk is extremely forbidden. This extends to the image you use on your profile and the name you use on the servers. You may use a nickname other than your Academy name if you wish, but if a staffmember asks what your Academy name is you will have to tell them; failure to do so will result in a kick or ban. This is to ensure that we don't get intruders on the servers. Please stick to the English language. A small chat in other languages is ok, but remember that English is the main language of the Academy. 2. Our servers are for the private use of our Academy members and no one else. Giving out the server passwords is not allowed. If someone asks you for the passwords, you are to direct them to the server page (member or non member). If you are found to have given out the password to someone you will be BANNED from the Academy regardless of warnings. The classes servers may be used anytime w/o special permission. If however a staffmember asks you to leave, immediately do so without arguing. Also, during the action of a class, don't join the server if you do not want to participate in the class. Should a ranked member be present on the server, ask for her/his permission. 3. The Jedi Academy is clan neutral ground. We are a place to hang out; clan activities (recruiting, clan wars, etc.) are not to be held within the Academy. 4. There is absolutely NO fighting or agressive action unless agreed upon. If someone is attacking you against the rules, don't fight back. That simply lowers yourself to their level and further irritates the situation. Tempers rise, names are called, and bans are handed out when this happens, so take the high road. If someone is bothering you tell a staffmember. If it continues, report it to a staffmember, switch to spectator or take a break to calm down. Along the same lines, it is not allowed to attack someone while they are typing (unless the typing icon appears while you are in the middle of an attack). 5. If it's not naturally bound to a key in the game, don't do it. A custom keyboard config is fine if it makes you comfortable, but no binding combo moves (DFA, lunge, etc). Also, usage of a killtracker is not allowed on the servers. 6. Please keep guns in the gun area (the courtyard in JK2 and the fortress area in JK3). The same thing goes for setting det packs/trip mines traps outside that area. If we catch you doing this you'll be subject to disciplinary action. The only exceptions to this rule is if the presence of guns or traps outside of the gun area is OK with everyone on the server. If someone has a problem with it, even only one person, then don't do it. Remember that tripmines stay in place after you disconnect, destroy them before leaving the server. 7. Any extraordinary activity (such as FFA, roleplaying, king of the hill, etc..) involving guns or other agressive actions outside the gun area or any other rule violation must be ok with everyone on the server. To avoid confusion to people joining the server during such a session, stay clear of the spawnpoint, or tell them directly upon connecting. 8. When using the NPC room (Ask a staffmember if you are unsure of what the NPC room is.), only spawn as many NPC's as you can handle and no more that 5 at a time. Use your heads here. Note that the NPC room is there for training purposes only and should only be used for that. Abusive action of the NPC room will not be tolerated. Also, do not continuously ask the Trainers to spawn things. Ask once and only once. 9. Do not stand in doorways as this affects the fps in the connecting rooms. Make a choice...in or out. ---------------------------- ::Map specific rules:: 1. Vladarion's Memorial The memorial is a sacred area for the Academy. Saber duels are tolerated in this area, but not in the direct perimeter of the memorial. You may not stand or sit on the memorial at all, nor are you allowed to saber or shoot at it. Remember, this is a memorial of one of our finest students who tragically passed away, treat it as such. 2. Mune's Bar Mune's Bar is a place to chill and talk. Saber duels are allowed, but only if it doesn't affect other players in that area. And do NOT abuse the privacy booths. *edit* ewwww its sticky. *edit again* not anymore  _______________ -Academy Leader/Dictator/Defeater of DJ Sith and JACen Solo in the JAK+ Tournament -I do think it (the JA) will help convert dozens, maybe hundreds, to the dork nation... --me This post was edited by Aron on Mar 02 2004 10:03am. |

Sure that's your desition but i trust that most of you guys who is in the staff of this academy lives in a free country? Sure i agree that basic english knowledge should be an requirement to joining this academy, but outside classes and the public webpage i think its un-neccesarry to make a rule regarding language. Peoples have brain, and those who lames and doesn't follow common ethics you allready have a rule that kicks them out.. More clear now what i meen? |

Joining the academy shows that you understand basic english. If people should be allowed to speak all of their own languages, because their english isn't "that good", we'd have to write the rules in 132 languages too. Talking in your own language isn't strictly forbidden, but I think it doesn't show much respect when you do when other people are around too, especially when they tell you they find it annoying. In example: When I am alone on the servers with a couple of fellow dutch people, I might be talking dutch. But as soon as someone else enters, i stop talking dutch. Pretty much everyone in the academy speaks english, or at least understands the basics of it. Speaking english might teach them a bit or two also. |

Though i accept the rules, i must say this looks alot like dictator-ship of controling people, regarding language, if you want everyone to understand you, offcorse you speak in english. Else you should be free to talk the language you want. Just my personal opinion about that |

w00t, they are now in place on the rules page as well. Im glad you appreciate our work. Although there are some rather experimental things in there, like the usage of classes servers, I hope we dont have to change them too much anytime soon. It should all be common sense, so if you guys use your heads, you should be fine.  - FiZZ of Belouve _______________ One of the Belouve boys, founder of the mighty FiZZsters Midbie council #20 - Fizz - #1933 - Jan '03 - Aug '04 "Renfield, you idiot!" |

Bravo, good edit. Helps a lot. _______________ I must not fear . Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear .

Seems fair enough. Respect other people, no laming, follow authority's commands, and just plain use your head. When you take a screenie, and the console is up, does it record console?
