New page

This is really more about our ''values'' as an online community, particularly [[Violet Volts]].

In other words, if you're contributing content to the game, these are the values we want to instill in our players.

'''''#1 is Fun.''''' — This is a game, it's meant to be fun first and foremost.

* ''Non-violence''. We will not add the ability to harm any living thing to the game.
* ''Redemption'' — and ''forgiveness''. The ability to forgive someone and for someone to redeem themself for having done wrong.
** As a special case, for storytelling purposes, this does not apply to [[Shade]].
* ''Consistency'' — the game world's story got edited a little after [[Tootsville IV]] to account for changes to the system and all, but we don't want to go rewriting history too often.
* ''Respect'' for one another and one another's belongings.

Some of the other lessons?

* Be nice; “do to others, as you would have them do to you. This is the whole of the law…”
* Share
* Help others
* Care for your environment
* Don't discriminate; don't stereotype.

Some educational elements we can maybe work in (see [[Edutainment]])

* Younger players:
** Arithmetic
** Reading/writing
** Online safety
** Literature
** Basic foreign language skills (eg, [[Dragón]])
** …
* Older players:
** Programming skills (Scheme maybe? or SmallTalk?)
** Higher maths and things? (The MIT lectures?)
** …
