Knight Realms is about people getting together and having fun together playing a game. I understand and accept that it is a social organization and people will not always get along or like each other. I also understand that some people have a natural tendency to make jokes and whisper gossip among themselves. I also understand that people just do not realize that when they say anything to anyone, in any social organization it will inevitability get around to everyone. As a result they say things that they should not have, hurt feelings, and make enemies, and generally cause a great deal of unnecessary and unwanted negativity.

So this is what you should be thinking every time you say anything gossipy or jokingly to anyone. “Is this something I would be comfortable saying to the face of the person or people it is about?” If the answer is no, than you should catch yourself and realize that you are making a mistake at best and are at worst participating in bullying.

Do not yell at anyone. No one deserves to be yelled at.
Do not belittle anyone. No one deserves to be made to feel small by you.
Do not make fun of anyone. No one deserves to be the target of cruel jokes.
Do not harass anyone. No one deserves to be the target of harassment.
Do not verbally assault or emotionally abuse anyone. No one deserves that.

If you have a moment of weakness and start to go down one of these paths, apologize right away to whomever you might have hurt by doing so. It is the fastest and most effective way to at least attempt to set things right.

Do not threaten any accusations or actions that could harm someone’s livelihood. This is a group of friends playing a make-believe game. We are lighthearted in our intentions and have no desire for anyone to drag such serious and dangerous notions into our social circle. If you ever have genuine concerns for anyone or anything, they should be brought to the Knight Realms staff, who can then make sure the proper and appropriate channels are reached.

As a member of Knight Realms you are part of a community. Do not cause trouble, embarrassment, resentment, or overall negativity in our community or we may ask you to leave it if we feel your presence in the community has become more detrimental than it is beneficial.

It is really sad when members of our organization think that they can use Knight Realms to hurt people. That is not why this game exists. As staff we are asking you to seriously consider your actions when making comments about anyone in our game.
