God Modding Autohitting And Other No-nos
What is Godmodding (or godmodeing)?
(by Arkosis)
Haven frowns mightily on godmodding. This includes RPing that you have mind-powers that can automatically induce thoughts or behaviors in others, that you are the spawn of a god (or are a god yourself, or any portion of a god, or the vessel of a god, or even the chafing dish of a god), or claiming that you are royalty in the town of Haven.
If you run into persons who choose to godmod, please ignore them. If the person becomes obstreperous, tell a DM and we'll intervene to remind them that they are not, in fact, the chafing dish of Helm.
What is Autohitting?
Autohitting defines a player who describes their intention to hit someone and then hits them in the same breath, without giving the other player a chance to respond. In Haven (as in most roleplay in NW), you can only show an attempt to do something. For example:
Naughty:
BhaalTheMighty: *reaches over the table and picks you up effortlessly, tossing you aside like the regurgitated limp noodle you are*
JackBeanstalk: ((Hey, no autohitting, you freaking god-modder!))
Nice:
BhaalTheMighty: *leans across the table and tries to pick you up*
JackBeanstalk: *steps aside* -Rolls a Dexterity Check and gets a 10-
BhallTheMighty: -Rolls a Dexterity Check and gets a 12- *his fingers close on your collar despite your pathetic attempts to avoid him*
JackBeanstalk: *cries like the regurgitated limp noodle he is*
What is Autoresponding?
Autoresponding is the act of describing other players' reactions to you. You can only talk about your own actions; sadly, you'll have to wait for others to describe their own. For example:
Naughty:
AttentionSeeker25: *casts a haughty glance over the bar. As everyone's head instantly turns to stare at her, she ignores them with an icy stare*
Nice:
AttentionSeeker25: *casts a haughty glance over the bar, covertly checking to see whose eyes are upon her*
