If you haven't bothered to read "Not Bad for a First Landing" on Korriban, I've set a new Precedent that applies to everyone on this board.
To put it in plain terms: If you God-Mod, you are screwed.
To further explain: Modding is simply something that won't be tolerated on our board. The problem with it is that it's a confusing little problem. It's really not a serious enough offense to ban or suspend someone for, yet it's annoying and serious enough to merit something be done. While a lot of boards end up with nothing but Admin censuring as an answer, a lot of boards don't have the sort of setup we do.
May I direct all of you to Rule Number 3 of our Board Rules?
You see, death happens in our board. It's closely monitored and discouraged, but it happens. Now, with this in mind, I have decided the appropriate punishment for God-modding:
IF YOU ARE GOD-MODDING AND ARE CAUGHT BY AN ADMIN, YOU WILL INSTANTANEOUSLY 'GIVE PERMISSION' FOR YOUR CHARACTER TO BE KILLED BY THE OPPOSING FIGHTER, FOR THAT FIGHT ONLY.
This rule adds a certain dynamic to the board, in that not only will players do their best to roleplay significantly more realistically, as no one wants their character dead, but in that those who do slip up intentionally leave the fate of their character in their opponent's hands. Either you get off easy, with nothing more than a scare and knowledge that, another time, you may not be so lucky, or... you're back to square one.
This rule is not open for discussion, as Malfius and I have spoken and agreed that it is just and fair. Regardless, any questions, PM me.

Rule #3
Try to avoid killing other players. They spend alot of time creating their character, so it's unfair to simply take that character away from them. Unfortunately, in the universe of Star Wars, death is inevitable for some. Therefore, it is HIGHLY recommended that you ask permission before killing someone else’s character. One way around this, is to decide beforehand between yourselves if this will be a battle to the death.
