Very interesting stuff on dealing with RMT, item recovery/scammer issues, GM commands, and lots of other interesting tidbits.

Ah heck, one more bit:

8.1 GM in Standard Form
The GM has a fixed standard form.

Appearance:
Male Race: Hume Face Type: 5-A Size: M Job: Paladin
Female Race: Hume Face Type: 2-A Size: M Job: Paladin?
( The face type for Male will be bald-headed, Female will be blonde with a ponytail. )?
*When using a Female character, either 1) The staff controlling the character must
be a woman OR
2) There must be a special reason why the staff controlling the character wishes to be a female GM

Also, apparently these are the edited documents; there were actually phone numbers (such as Sage Sundi's) on it originally. Of course, I wouldn't post that, even if I had it.

However, if I shouldn't have posted this document, go ahead and delete these posts or ask me to do so. I realize it was not something originally meant to be seen by us, but there is really little (if anything) that can be exploited from it anyways. Supposedly RMT have had their hands on this manual for a while as well, although that doesn't justify our needing to have it either.

No one will be fired over this, it was released into the public domain out by that piece of s*** Rustymetal.

Those who were around at the time no doubt remember the uproar Skillz (ala Speerit, Duncan et.al.) caused by bringing this douche and his buddy Killuminati to Carbuncle after they were banned from Bismark for hacking and harassing GMs in real life. The toons they used on Carbuncle were Takk (>.<) and Luther.

Harassment IRL isn't just bannable, isn't that "get the douches arrested"?

[Maethros]

Yeah, the hacking got them banned. After the perma-ban, they went on a tear harassing GMs at the ops center and on their cell phones. The harassment got them a call from SE's attorney, not sure if the authorities got involved.

lol wut?

Killum and Rusty was Nightshade's idea >< he didn't tell anyone until they were here.
I was no longer an officer in that ls then ><

I did not want them here >_< Rusty really wasn't a bother, but that other guy was hell on earth.

Basically the reason Night wanted them here was because FM had that JP guy claiming for them and the only person Night knew could beat them was Rusty. Why he had them come to this server YIKES!
