Restricted items

[Taras Crozo]

If I unlock the use of a restricted item, can my other character use it?

 

[Antares]

Not sure why you'd use one character to get something, and then another to use it, but I'm sure the answer is no.

Only the one who got the restricted item. This is a one-time thing, so only your one character who had the thread for getting it can use it once.

Then if that is the ruling rule it should be enforced better. Throughout that spat of auctions there were a few restricted items sold or traded to buy something. No action was taken far as I know on that. Nor would it be fair to come back around and say no and screw up all the work that happened there. But perhaps a reminder to everyone would be in order that trading restricted items in the future is prohibited?

I will have to refer to our rules again. To be honest, Tech Judges and other people who have something to do with Tech Creation, are keeping their eye on every restricted thing. According to our rules:

To be able to use a Restricted Item in your Factory Submission, a writer must first complete the objective attached to the restricted item in a convincing manner that adds to the quality of the role-play thread.

Well, that's what you already know. But:

Completing restricted item objectives may count as development threads for the submissions using the restricted item. Each completed objective only counts for one submission.

Nobody has ever told anything about not selling such things made out of restricted materials, but a restricted material can't be used for more than one submission. And the submission would have to be made by the character who acquired the restricted item. That's what I was talking about.

Right then so I could say, run a mining operation for Beskar. Then sell it to whomever. And then they're free to use it for an item, basically.

If anybody starts abusing it, we will deal with things. It's as easy as possible... >.>

 

[Fabula Caromed]

We are reactive, not proactive. If there is abuse, we react to it. We do not hunt down people who are prone to abuse and harass them when no one has a problem with what they're doing.

...Most of the time. >.>;;

Oh... is that how that rule works?

I may have made a tiny mistake then, because I did unlock two restricted item objectives and upon finishing them just put a kilo amount to it and then sold it by kilo, rather than by thread. Is that also acceptable or is that bending the rules unjustly?

You guys notice it says:
a writer must first...

A writer....

Not a character...

Thats why auctions are ok? Because were supposed to earn it. After achieving said item as a writer, its to do with what you will. According to my understanding. Heck im working on a weapon with Jon that gets its cortosis from an alts actions (Zaiden, and he died at that time leaving it in his will), and Jon is an FJ

Character is but a sub-account who belongs to a writer. Of course you can earn a restricted item with a sub-account, because you're still a writer...

 

[Zaiden Dean]

Lol well duh, but thats my point. If it was account specific, wouldnt he have stated as such? He could have said that it needed be done by a character, but instead said a writer.

RULES ARE FOR FOOLS!!!

First thing I was gonna say was "as long as the thread was done for it and never used, have a ball" but I see that's all already been covered so.
