Reminder About IMs and Questions for Blocked Posts

posted by Ginger at 04:42 PM, April 11, 2004 | Filed under : Netiquette & Play Procedures | Comments and Followups

Michael and I have had a number of people IM us asking for quick judgement calls on things recently. While we’re happy to answer if we’re on and available, sometimes we don’t have time to make a call or answer the question, or even if we do, we may need to consult the other GM.

If we answer a question and particularly if it requires a rules call, you’re responsible for emailing the GMs a transcript of the IM. If we don’t have a record, we may not be able to remember why we decided the way we did, and we may not be able to prove to ourselves that we made a decision that way. So keep our records complete by mailing us chat transcripts.

If you are blocked (whether you ask a question by IM or email) please be sure we get a copy of the question *by email* and that it says clearly that your post is blocked until you get an answer. That way we can turn the answer around as quickly as possible so you don’t miss a post. We try to keep up with things on our own, but we’re missing things right now, and we need your help to ensure that high priority items get treated appropriately.

Thanks for keeping this in mind when you ask the GMs questions.
