 ====== Authorities ======
-All users of Furscape MUCK shall comply with general policy as set by muck owners: Michael Nixon (Zirik), Anthony Hayes (Hagalaz) and Tobias Koehler (Unci), hereafter referred to as "headwizards".
+All users of Furscape MUCK shall comply with general policy as set by muck owners: (Zobeid), Anthony Hayes (Hagalaz) and Tobias Koehler (Unci), hereafter referred to as "headwizards".
 Muck administrators (i.e. wizards) may prescribe disciplinary actions for players who violate these policies. Players may appeal rulings to the headwizards. In all matters of muck rules and policy, the headwizards have final authority, with a majority vote of headwizards used to decide matters of dispute. In the event of a tie vote, another W4 or W3 wizard may be called upon to break the tie.

 ====== Adult Themes ======
-This game may involve adult themes. We therefore prefer that you create a character that is actually and legally an adult. However, if you choose to play a child, your application will not be approved unless the child has a parent or legal guardian and the reviewer feels that no reasonable person could interpret a child's or childlike description in a sexually suggestive manner. If your child character behaves in a suggestive manner toward another character, or your adult character behaves in a suggestive manner toward a child, you will be asked to leave.  To ensure that there is no misunderstanding, we will repeat this rule, just in case it was missed the first time: **//__SEXUAL AGEPLAY INVOLVING MINOR/UNDERAGE CHARACTERS IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN, AS IS DEPICTING MINOR/UNDERAGE CHARACTERS IN A SEXUAL MANNER__//**.
+This game may involve adult themes. //We therefore prefer that you create a character that is actually and legally an adult!//
+Additionally, there are areas of the MUCK that require use of the **[[@BIRTHDAY]]** program to state your legal, real-life date of birth, with refusal to do so (or failure to provide a birth date that satisfies the 18+ rule) preventing access to those areas.
+However, if you choose to play a child-character, your application will not be approved UNLESS:
+. The child has a parent or legal guardian in-character as part of a legitimate and substantial storyline.
+//AND//
+. The staff feels that no reasonable person could interpret the character's description or mannerisms in a sexually suggestive manner.
+**Age-Play on Furscape Muck is ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN!  This includes use of player-controlled underage "zombie" characters.**
+* If your @description depicts a minor/child character in a sexually provocative way OR depicts any kind of nudity, YOU WILL BE BANNED from the game.
+* If your child-character behaves in a sexually suggestive manner toward another character IC or OOC, YOU WILL BE BANNED.
+* If your adult character behaves in a suggestive manner towards a child, YOU WILL BE BANNED.
+* If you create or own objects that depict inappropriate ageplay (including room descriptions), YOU WILL BE BANNED.
+To ensure that there is absolutely no misunderstanding, we will repeat this rule: **//__SEXUAL AGEPLAY INVOLVING MINOR/UNDERAGE CHARACTERS IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN, AS IS DEPICTING MINOR/UNDERAGE CHARACTERS IN A SEXUAL MANNER. IF YOU VIOLATE THIS POLICY IN ANY WAY YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DELETED AND YOU WILL BE BANNED FROM THE GAME.__//**
-If your character concept isn't appropriate for Furscape MUCK, staff will be happy to suggest changes. But please remember that all approvals are at the discretion of the staff.
