ActiveWiki:Conduct Guidelines

The Active Worlds Conduct Guidelines are a series of rules that are enforced in AWI owned worlds in the Active Worlds Universe. These rules are enforced particularly in public building worlds by the Peacekeepers.

As a project owned by AWI, these guidelines (if applicable) are also enforced by the ActiveWiki SysOps.
