Any Immortal that is level 60 or higher has the right to completely remove any
player from the Realms of Despair for suspicion of engaging in the sale or
purchase of "mud property" for real currency or property.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For these purposes, specific phrases are defined below.
Mud property includes items, gold, characters, residences, or anything that
exists solely as an aspect of the Realms of Despair and has no tangible
existence within the real world outside of data stored on the Realms of Despair
server.
Real life currency or property includes anything which exists exterior to the
game.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basis in fact is not a prerequisite for prosecution. If we have serious
suspicion, we have suitable grounds to act. Exchanges of this sort violate the
basic ethics of enjoyment of Realms of Despair, as well as the spirit of the
licenses of the DIKU and MERC codebases. These exchanges will not be tolerated.
