Rules Abuse

In general, activities which take advantage of game features and the limitations of the code to produce impossible results or make people do unlikely things are illegal. For example:

- If you have stolen someone's equipment, it is illegal to give it

 to shopkeepers, innkeepers, etc. who would not ordinarily accept it
 or keep it from the victim.  (On the other hand, if you are a troll,
 for example, and have acquired a staff, and want to give it to
 Grinder, this is ok, as Grinder would probably never give it back
 to the owner anyway.)

- Jumping into inaccessible deathtraps with equipment you have stolen

 or looted is illegal unless you actually want to stop playing the
 character (retire). Using a deathtrap to get rid of cursed eq is
 also considered illegal.

- Misleading emotes, like 'emote leaves to the west', are illegal.

 'emote begins some strange incantations..." belong to these too.

- Activities which seek a result that is otherwise unobtainable due to

 current effects on a character in the game are illegal. For example:
 if you are slept and unable therefore to use 'tell', communicating to
 a person RL (phone, IM, etc.) in order to circumvent your current
 inability to tell is patently illegal.
