I. Liderc Regulations & Guidelines (OOC)
II. Liderc Law (IC)
“Freedom and strenght only come from discipline: seek freedom
and become captive of your desires. Seek discipline and find
your freedom, submit yourself to a rigid discipline and you’ll feel
that in that submission lays your strenght.”
~Liderc Dark Codex, I, 62~
- LIDERC GUIDELINES (OOC) -
1. As a Liderc member, it is expected that you will put maximum effort in both understanding and respecting the MASADA Rules and guidelines.
2. Keep in mind that as a member of the group, you represent Liderc in all that you say and do. Your IC/OOC actions affect the overall perspective on how Liderc reputation is viewed. Creating troubles at this level will lead to consequences depending on the severity of the issue.
3. As general rule: when you’re in any CCS universe wear your faction tag: Liderc member tags are deemed as IC badges which any player can see. It counts as IC information for all the players you encounter and in most cases, it is the detail that players you encounter will note and remember most. *Note: this is deemed more as guideline than strict rule: can exist many IC and OOC reasons to wear or not wear a specific tag.
4. No cross-factioning (joining multiple IC active factions in the CCS network). Either you’re a Liderc or you’re not. Any exception to this rule must have solid IC reasons and agreed with with the faction leaders. *Note: In respect of this specific rule, character's racial groups are not considered “factions”.
5. Combat is deemed as a sub-type of conflictual roleplay which means that whatever fights initiated with enemies must have IC reasons corresponding with IC events. No starting fights out of boredom or “just for fun.” More importantly, OOC driven fights are totally unacceptable.
6. Accept your defeat, is part of the game. There’s no such thing as a “fair fight”, many factors always affect the outcome of a combat scene: numbers, levels, SL or network issues, luck... Accept it with poise and NEVER whine. No matter if “they” do the same or not; “they” are not Liderc.
7. OOC issues between Liderc members have to either a.) be worked out privately, or, b.) brought to the faction leaders as soon as possible. OOC disputes which escalate to OOC drama ruin gameplay and create discord in the group. Refusal to cooperate in resolving such issues may lead to the removal of toxic individuals, depending on the severity of the situation.
8. Support other Liderc members in any aspect of the game: rules & guidelines, roleplay, meter, and so on.
9. Keep IC/OOC seperate at ALL times and strive to make this seperation clear. For example, your OOC friends could also be your IC enemies, but IC you are expected to view them as enemies and act accordingly.
10. Do not allow room for IC/OOC confusion. Strive to stay true to your character and roleplay story at all times. If there’s any doubt as to whether your actions can be misunderstood, work to clarify it.
11. No OOC arguing with other players in Local Chat. Especially, do not respond to OOC criticism or complaints in Local Chat. Try to limit OOC chat to IMs.
12. Always stay tuned to the Liderc’s official channel as well as Allied channels, especially when we are in combat as important information such as situtation/strategy updates and orders will be given in those channels.
13. Show courtesy by striving to respond to calls made on the Liderc group chat whether it’s to let everyone know that you’re safe or simply to notify them that you’re busy with things outside of NOR or SL.
14. Always keep a log of everything, whether it be Local Chat or IM logs. Often you will be asked for a log when you report a situation or an issue, especially when it escalates into a situation where sim GMs or admin becomes involved.
15. If there is anything you are unsure about Msada rules, CCS rules, Liderc OOC/IC laws, guidelines, always ask an Officer or a Council member for clarification before you act.
