* Mute you because you PKd them and they are angry.
* Mute you because of something you said in local.
* Mute you because you insulted them (eg. "lex is a big poopy head)([[Devs and GMs|GMs]] can mute you for this however)(rule does not apply if insult involved something listed above in things not to talk about)
* Mute you permanently, [[Devs and GMs|GMs]] alone reserve the right to mute for more than 24 hours, I'd ask them to refer any cases where they feel an extended mute is needed to a GM.
* Mute you in a manner inconsistant with the procedure posted above.
