Administrative Decisions

by the Administrator of Abydos

Roleplaying - Stay In-Character

 I will be an In-Character, Roleplaying Administrator. If I'm not around you can leave me a just outside my office. Therefore, all In-Character decisions will be handled In-Character. This is not just for problems because I don’t want this to be negative.
  • If your Character has a suggestion, I want to hear it.
  • If your Character has a question, I will do my best to answer it
  • If your Character has a problem, I will do my best to help

You may not always like my answer - but I will never lie to you. My answer to you may be . . . No.  I may not be able to give you the answer you because you don’t need to know.

If your Character has a problem, there are three levels of authority in the city: 

Start with the Head of Caste if the problem is between two people of the same caste since the Head of the Caste rules over that Caste. Example the Head of Physicians would be over those in the Physicians caste, and so on. (My additional note.)
  1. The Magistrate - It is the Magistrate’s responsibility to investigate and prosecute wrong doing.
  2. The High Council - The High Council will hear appeals of the Magistrate’s decisions.
  3. The Administrator - The Administrator is the tie-breaker in Council split decisions, the final say and last word.
The Administrator is NOT a Ubar. I will not override a majority decision of the High Council.

I said I don’t want this to be negative, but I must mention a couple things.
  • If you have a problem, I advise you to approach me In-Character.
  • If you insist on taking a Character problem OOC - be prepared for the consequences as the knife can cut both ways.

Out Of Character (OOC)

The Administrator has the final say on the validity of all RP events. This means, even while trying your best to stay In-Character, you feel the RP was invalid You have the right to call for a Mod to look into the situation.

Silly Example to prove a point:
Fred_of_<city> captures you.
You go along with the RP for a while.
He then *wraps you with Wonder Woman’s Lasso* and is expecting that you cannot help but tell him the truth about <your city's> defenses.

If you don’t agree with the decision of the Mod, I will make the final decision. The Administrator has the final say on all disiplinary actions taken.
