The staff have been working long and hard with this rule revision. It is a full overhaul of the rules to fill in gaps that have popped up over time. This is generally how rules progress. Someone does something, staff need to figure a solution and new rule or policy, repeat again. In the end one ends up with more fleshed out rules.
We're now more or less done for this time, but this is where YOU come in, as a player. Since this is going to be us going through all the rules you will all have a say in this. This is important. If you have suggestions or ideas it is time to present them when this revision goes on. Decisions are final. We'll be going through the different types of rules one by one. The rules to go through are (so much work to do):
General Rules
Chat Rules
Forum Rules
Metagaming Rules
Powergaming Rules
Building Rules
IC Death Rules
Stealing Rules
Town/Guild/Clan/Etc Rules
In-Game and In-Character Policies
Activity Policies
A poll will be posted in each thread for simple replies if all you got to say is "okay". It will also work as deadline for each issue.

SUGGESTION:
IC DEATH RULES:
1.Your character can’t be immortal.
2.Eventually, characters get old and die. One Real-Life month is equal to 1 Mesalia year and 1 season passed.
3.You can’t kill someone without their permission.
4.Nobody can kill you unless they have your permission, if your character has done something that would realistically result in death (jumping off cliffs, for example), or your character has killed another’s characters, opens up permissions on yours.
5.You MUST play your character for at least three Real-Life weeks.
Abusing the 3-week-rule and invincible-play is strictly forbidden!
6.After you die, you then need to post a new background story on the forums (the Character Deaths And Submissions section), along with your new characters name.
7.With the application you need to provide us of the story of how your character died, the death may be retconned by staff if it's considered needed.
8.All the items you had in your inventory are lost, they do NOT pass on to your next character.
9.Your new character may not inherit your dead character's items or home. For exceptions, PM a GM.
