'''Patch Notes:''' Our idle policy is currently pending an overhaul related to the usage of SceneSys to concretely track activity. For the record, this does mean that your activity will be gauged by whether or not you've logged scenes. If you don't log scenes, you may end up flagged as idle.

Characters are the "Roles" in "Role Play". This news file covers Multiverse Crisis MUSH's character policies, including alts, alt interaction, idle policy, etc.


  1. All players may have up to 6 characters at a time. A 7th and 8th slot may be requested, but approval is on a per-application basis (that is, you must ask every time you drop your 7th or 8th character and want a new one) and does not persist between 7th/8th alts.
  2. Characters from MU*'s we've absorbed don't count towards character limits.
  3. Players may keep secret alts. This is a privilege that may be revoked based on how it is used, staff will ALWAYS know who secret alts are, and special circumstances may require they be revealed.
  4. A player's alts may interact in limited doses only. This should never give either alt an undue or unfair advantage, and should not result in players who AREN'T using multiple characters in a scene losing RP to the person who is. Most importantly, DON'T RP WITH YOURSELF.
  5. One player may not play two, closely-related characters. For example, you cannot play both Dr. Wily and Megaman, or Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.
  6. Our Idle Policy is case-by-case. Depending on your character type (FC, OFC, OC, etc.) you will be expected to have a minimum number of logged scenes. For characters who are expected to adhere to a minimum level of activity (FCs & some OFCs) this will be around one scene a month. OCs generally won't idle out, but may have their approval revoked and require updates to re-enter play. While the old idle nuke is no longer being run formally, it will still be used to determine who is chronically idle. FCs and OFCs will still be periodically @nuked or reverted to Guest accounts.


Want to report a CharSquatter?: It's pretty easy to tell if somebody's done something recently. You can +scene/old <name> to see a list of time stamped logs.
