Going to Jail?
Written by: Zephyr_
UKS2000 says that a jailguard's duties are to uphold the constitution of Cybertown(Paragraph 3 ) and what it stands for, welcome vistors and newcomers to the jail and offer help when needed. The main causes of being banned are swearing, flooding, threats to other Cybertown citizens, and breaking the Cybertown Constitution.
If you are ever arrested or want to know about it (Q&A):
Q:How long and how do you get out of jail?
A:It would depend on the offence and the security guard attending. The average is usually three days, but can be extended to six months. (If there is re-offending.)
Q: Isnt there a fine?
A: Yes there is if you have reached a 14-day ban, it would be 500 cybercash along with a deduction of 500 experience points.
Q: If a cybertown citizen is banned for life how would you return?
A:Citizens who have been permanently banned may request, in writing, permission to immigrate back into Cybertown after having a period of 6 months.
The Cybertown Constitution is:
1) In communicating to others in Cybertown follow customary manners as they are (or at least as they should be!) followed in real life. In other words don't insult other members, don't make statements that are grossly offensive including blatant expressions of bigotry, racism, hatred, or profanity and don't indulge in abusive or harrassing behavior or personal attacks. This includes not indulging in racial, ethnic, sexual, or religious slurs, disruptive behavior of any kind or making lewd comments.
2) Cybertown includes a set of Colonies where people are not discriminated against on the basis of personal beliefs, sex, age or race and a place where people are not attacked for these things. One intention of Cybertown is to provide an oasis for rationality, pleasant discourse and harmony rather than tirades and insults against those who disagree with your views.
3) The public meeting places are not sex-chat spaces. This means that you must not engage in sexual activities or sexually-explicit chat that would generally be considered offensive or inappropriate in a public place. What you do in the private spaces is your own business - what you do in the public spaces becomes everybody's business and appropriate actions will be taken to prevent violations. These actions include gagging offenders, removing them from the community for a certain period of time and, in extreme cases, exiling them forever.
4) You may not promote or provide instructional information about illegal activities, or promote physical or mental harm or injury against any group or individual. You also may not indulge in activities that infringe upon anyone else's copyright(s).
5) Cybertown is not responsible for the content of these meeting places. That responsibility lies solely with the people using the spaces since they are the ones dynamically creating the content. The opinions and views expressed in these meeting places do not necessarily reflect those of Cybertown.
6) Due to legal requirements Cybertown does not monitor these meeting places, but the community itself, in the interests of fostering positive community spirit, has decided what it will and won't accept in these spaces and various Security Personnel do check on the spaces from time to time. We do not wish to be forced into using filters by the foolish and thoughtless actions of the minority.
7) Members can be held legally liable for the contents of their speech, and may be held legally accountable if their speech includes, for example, defamatory comments.
8) You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Cybertown for any loss, liability, claim, damage, and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from or in connection with the contents of your speech and your use of these communities.
9) In building your dwellings in Cybertown, the above rules also apply. In other words you cannot furnish your spaces with textures, texts, objects or images that would be considered offensive, illegal, pornographic, racist or that violate copyrights.
10) Your uploaded files, and your participation in conferences and chats, are subject to review, modification, and deletion without notice by community officials or others responsible for community activities.
11) Avoid excessive shouting (use of all caps) or flooding (continuous posting of repetitive text) in the Chat areas.
12) Impersonation of Cybertown sysops or staff members is prohibited. False representation of yourself as a Cybertown employee or sysop can result in immediate termination of your Cybertown account.
