Texting Rules

Ark Industries

Statement Released by A.I.

A.I have numerous satellites orbiting the Earth, and they are the most powerful ones off the planet so to speak. With these satellites we offer the best coverage for our mobile telephone network.

Basically, you will never have to look around for the best signal, the signal is always strong, no matter where you are. You can even make/take calls or text messages on the subway.

The rules for the Texting forum are governed by the rules of the site as well as the chatbox rules. You may review them all here:

Text messages are meant to be brief. think like Twitter post brief (i.e. about 150 characters).

Your character may use this area to contact a friend if they find themselves in a pinch, or if they just want to chat.

Also, seeing as how text messages are supposed to be brief, it bears reminding that this forum should not be used to rapidly increase your post count. The moderators can always turn the post count off in this area if we think it is being abused.

Please keep in mind that cellular-type transmissions such as text messaging are not always secure. It will be up to the moderators' discretion if a message is intercepted by someone "listening in" on the line and gleaning information. Text messages can always be traced . . .

If you would like for your character to intercept a message in addition to its intended recipient, please contact both the players involved as well as the moderators so that we may come to a consensus.

Your character may only send text messages to other characters whose cell phone numbers they have.
