       money. Any attempt to profit  from being a player in
       MU will not be tolerated.

       10. Disrupting events
       We try to run events regularly; however it is very
       difficult if there  is a large gathering of people and some or
       all
       are being disruptive.  When a MM is trying to make
       an announcement or
       give instructions during  an event, you must remain
       quiet. Keep conversations to private messages  (whispers).
       This is common courtesy.
       
       Punishment:
       Disconnection
       
       11. Spamming
       Flooding the game or forum with comments or other
       text unnecessarily
       
       Punishment:
       Warning, disconnection, forum ban
       How to report:
       Pass on any and all information to a MM as soon as
       possible including  suitable screenshots if necessary for
       investigation.
       
       NB:
       
       A “suspension” is a temporary exclusion, whereas  a
       “ban” is a permanent exclusion.
       All punishments within reason are up to the MM\'s
       discretion up to and including IP banning for any offence.
       When  multiple rules have been broken, this will be
       taken into consideration  and the punishment may be
       greater than that of the individual offences.
       The player’s record of past offences will also be
       taken  into consideration; all characters on the same account
       will be recorded  together; i.e. a first offence on
       one character will mean the
       next  offence on any character is treated as a
       second offence.
       
       
       HOW TO REPORT RULE BREAKERS WITH SCREENSHOTS
       It is important that you take appropriate
       screenshots. This means the  maximum conversation log must be
       visible and legible while keeping the  actual screen
       content partly visible.
       Press F4 until the conversation window takes up the
       full height of the  screen and alter the transparency of this
       window so that the writing is  clear and legible,
       but not so that the window is
       fully opaque.
       Screenshots where very little of the conversation
       window is shown may be deemed  inadmissible as evidence
       and dismissed.
