[Replace everything including and after "What to do if you are being harassed?"]
Any attack on one's race, religion, gender, sexual identity, sexual preferences, neurodiversity, or other immutable aspects of one's self should be immediately be reported by submitting a request (request #help).
If you believe you're being harassed in some other way, you may still submit a request to the wizards for assistance.
If you never want to interact with the harassing user again, on any character, submit a request asking for an official No Contact Order (NCO).
If someone violates an official NCO, do NOT respond to them. Contact a wizard instead. Violating an NCO is a very serious policy violation.
Recommendations If you don't feel comfortable escalating immediately to an official report, there are steps you may take for resolution. These are merely recommendations; at any point, you may choose either escalate to a formal complaint, or de-escalate and talk over the issue with the other party.
- First, remove yourself from the situation. Make some space and take a moment to calm down. What felt like an attack may have been a misunderstanding or miscommunication. Try to look at the exchange from a more detached point of view once it no longer feels so immediate and distressing.
- If, after taking a moment to examine the situation, the interaction seems (or blatantly is) harassment you may either:
- Tell the person, clearly, that you do not want to be treated that way. Make it clear that you're speaking out-of-character.
- If you do not feel safe speaking to the person, break contact (see next list item) or submit a request.
- You may break contact by performing any or all of the following steps (replace [name] with the character name):
- Filter their pages:
page #ignore [name]
- Filter their whispers:
whisper #ignore [name]
- Hide from them on 'wf':
wf #hidefrom [name]
- Hide from them on 'wft':
wft #hidefrom [name]
- Use your client to obscure any public output coming from the offending individual (says, poses, etc.). This varies by client, but a simple regular expression that can be used as the basis of a trigger is
^[name].*
