Found this little gem. Old Knight code?

<786/786hp 607/607m 705/705mv | 9 PM> l knighthood
These are the rules we are all to adhere to.
They are guides to acting in a Knightly manner.
Here is a quick list, explanations follow.
We are all to know and adhere to these.


Rule One: No OOC, on the channel or spoken.
Rule Two: Always show up for raids.
Rule Three: Never leave the Code in enemy hands.
Rule Four: Always help good people in need.
Rule Five: Always fight honorably.
Rule Six: Be a good example for others.
Rule Seven: As Lord Cador would say...Do not be stupid.
Rule Eight: Never fear to ask questions.



1) No OOC language over CB or in speech. This includes
'level' 'hit points' 'experience points'
your age in hours, etc. Use IC terms, or just don't say it.
As Lord Cador says, you can't accuse someone of being
OOC without being OOC yourself.

2) Always show up to defend the Castle, unless you are specifically
told that it is a false alarm. More foes may arrive or you may
be able to save the armor and weapons of a Knight, or something
of that sort. No matter who you are, you must always defend the Castle.

3) Always attempt to retrieve the Code when it is in the hands of our
enemies if it is possible.
This does not apply to low-ranked Knights, but anyone rank 30 or
above should be able to make a decent effort. Remeber that the
Code represents all we stand for.

4) Render reasonable aid to any good person who asks you, or see thatemote clasps his hands against his chest and bows deeply.

someone else renders aid to them. But only help them to such an
extent as is reasonable for their rank.
Just as children can be spoiled, so can adventurers.

5) Never initate a fight at unfair odds, at least when the odds are in
your favor.
This isn't just sheer numbers, this is equality. One person to one
person is acceptable.
For creatures assisting, is a pile of rotting flesh or a bear equal
to one of us? No.
If they have one creature, get a creature of your own or go it alone.
If they have more than two strong creatures, another Knight aiding
is reasonable.
Use wisdom and common sense in determining what is fair.

6) Be a good role model. This means, be polite and courteous. Be brave
but also wise.
Do not use bad language. Do not break your word. Everything you do
reflects on us as a cabal, and marks you as either worthy or not.
Which leads to rule #7:

7) Do not be stupid.

8) If you ever have a question about anything, feel free to ask.
Asking questions is not stupid. Staying ignorant is.

These are the rules we all are to live up to.
If you think someone is not living up to them, counsel POLITELY and privately
if such is possible.
If that does not work, advise the leader or one of the Marshalls privately.
Remember, of course, that character assassination over our channel is anything
but polite.
