Hello
I'd like to clarify the reason for the metagaming punishment.
The situation occurred in the public chat, where someone said "come to the business battle," and I jokingly replied "on my way, boss."
I didn't use any external information or bring it into the role-playing game. It was just an interaction within the chat itself. I would also add that the administrator, even having the right to interpret the message, did not penalize all offenders. This is because "comin" and "ok" can be seen as responses to the message above.
METAGAMING MEANING - Metagaming (MG) - Using information you have gotten from Out of Character ways and using it In Character. e.g Using private messages to tell your friend your character is in trouble at a certain location. Inciting someone to metagame is also against the rules. This includes emoting information that other people have no reason to currently know — your /me's and /do's should not state what others cannot see, hear, touch, smell or taste. Using VoIP programs such as Teamspeak, Skype, Discord and Ventrilo to communicate IC whilst in-game is strictly forbidden.
If there are any specific rules regarding the use of public chat for this type of message, I would appreciate it if you could let me know so I can avoid it in the future.
Thank you.
