       Welcome to the Communication Channel
   DIR By: ARuseler
       Date: May 8, 2013, 10:24 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       The Communication Channel serves to allow negotiations between
       factions, towns and individuals, the exchange of welcomes
       between groups who have not yet previously interacted and the
       occasional threat to disembowel someone because you don't like
       them.
       Some things to bear in mind:
       1. This is a role-play forum. Any out of character posts will be
       deleted without warning. Lines of out of character text will be
       snipped from role-play posts.
       2. If a communication is not directed at you, or it is made
       clear that you are not a party to the communication, don't post
       in it.
       3. If a communication is not directed at your characters, your
       characters should not know about it.
       This thread will serve for feedback for any points people might
       like to raise regarding this sub-forum.

       1) A thread does not need to have a line stating the channel is
       encrypted in order to be secure. Simply put, unless it says it
       is an open channel, it is encrypted. An encryption line is
       completely optional, and threads omitting this line are awarded
       the same level of security as a thread including an 'encrypted'
       line.
       2) You may post in a thread here only if one of the following
       conditions are met;
       2a) Your character is on the list of recipients or belongs to
       the town which the transmission is directed towards. If the
       transmission is directed to your faction leadership, and your
       character is not part of that leadership, your character does
       not have view/post access to that transmission. If you are in
       doubt, contact your faction leader first.
       2b) You have permission from the transmission's author, or from
       the transmission's recipient (author/recipient must post
       detailing that they are allowing you access) to view/post in
       that transmission.
       2c) You have existing roleplay with the recipient that allows
       your character to view all mail he or she receives, and
       authorization to respond to said mail.
       2d) The transmission is directed towards your faction leader,
       but that player is unavailable for a long-period of time (three
       days or more) and unable to respond. In such a situation, the
       faction's second in command, or another member of the faction's
       leadership, may respond in his or her stead, but only on
       transmissions relevant to the faction, and not over personal
       business.
       2e) The author or recipient is either the military or police
       forces of a house in which you are the governmental leader, but
       only when the faction as a whole is being contacted, and not a
       specific person(s). Governmental leaders are not allowed to read
       or respond to transmissions sent to that nation's intelligence
       agencies unless otherwise designated by the thread author or
       recipient.
       If none of the above conditions are met, you can not post in
       that thread. If you are confused or in doubt over whether one of
       these conditions are met, or if there is sufficient reason that
       you believe justifies your character having access to read
       and/or respond to those messages, contact the thread author or a
       forum moderator before posting.
       3) Relations with a faction, such as being a mercenary group in
       their employment, being an ally, or having docking access to
       their bases, does not mean you can read or respond to
       transmissions directed to them. Likewise, governmental, police,
       intelligence, and military leaders may not read or respond to
       messages sent to or from corporate factions from their house
       unless otherwise designated by the message author or recipient.
       4) It is the responsibility of the author to make sure the
       thread clearly states the author's character's name/faction and
       the recipient of the message.
