Dear FML Managers,

One of the things we're looking to do at the moment is clarify some guidelines that may be being interpreted differently in different gameworlds. We've taken this list from suggestions that have come from where guidelines have been questioned in the subscriber forums, as well as from discussion with moderators, so if you are unsure about anything else please feel free to start a thread in the forums and we'll more than happily look into it.

Firstly, the Market Place.

- We'd like to see the Market Place start to be used as a chatroom rather than purely as a transfer list. Since the addition of the advert slot at the top of the Market Place we don't think there's any need to restrict the general chat area to one line adverts every 10 minutes etc. That's not to say you can't use the chat area to advertise a player, but don't expect it to stay on the screen for very long as people are more than welcome to chat about anything transfer related in there. That's also not to say, however, that it's ok to spam that chatroom. 10 minutes between is still a good target, common sense is the way forward! Remember there are other ways you can advertise your players - the advert box at the top and the transfer mailing list should be your main tools.

- Colours and skin code are allowed but please do so in a reasonable way. For example, decorating your mail to the transfer mailing list is fine (and can sometimes look great) but using huge fonts and skin images in the chat rooms can look obstructive and get in the way of other people chatting.

- When it comes to advertising players based on Judging Potential the warning is "Buyer Beware". If you are the sort that exaggerates your players potential to try and get a higher price, then shame on you, but it's not something we're going to ban or punish you for. It is the buyers responsibility to have a look into the player and, if in doubt, assess them yourself. If you are not sure that someone is good value for your money, then don't buy them, it's as simple as that! If in doubt, I'm sure there are plenty of people in the gameworld who will happily offer you a second opinion. We are also looking into ways to allow people to share their JP readings via an in game tool so you can be assured of its accuracy.

Most importantly, the main clarification that we would like to make is about the moderators themselves. The moderators are not bad guys! They are all volunteers who love the game and give up a lot of their free time to help keep the gameworlds ticking. They are obviously there to try and stop people from cheating and make sure that people are following the rules but that's for the good of the gameworld. If a Moderator asks you to do something (or in most cases, not to do something) please show them a little respect for all their hard work even if you disagree with them. If you have an issue with a moderator or disagree with what they say, don't raise it in game or in the forums, just submit a support ticket and we'll happily look into it.

That's it for now, but as I said, if there's anything else you are unsure about, please feel free to start a thread in the forums and we'll more than happily clarify it for you
