Stendhal FAQ: Difference between revisions

: It's a building in Semos Plains West, which you can visit and even meet the prison guard and inmates.

; I've been jailed, when will I be released?

: When you were jailed the message told you how many minutes you were jailed for. If you are not sure please ask /support politely how long the sentence was for.

; What happens if I logout during my jail time?

: When you return your time will be restarted to the original time because of your failed 'escape attempt'. I.e. If you were jailed for 10 minutes and you logout after 5 minutes, when you login you will have to spend another 10 minutes in jail without logging out, to be released. If something goes wrong and you believe that you've spent the full time in jail without logging out, but you are not released, please ask /support for help.

; Where do I go when I'm released from the cell in -1_semos_jail?

: You are magically teleported to -3_semos_jail_walk which is a bit like a maze. When you get to the centre you appear again in Semos.

; Why does the long jail exit walk exist?

: For technical reasons prisoners must be released to Semos city. We used to release prisoners straight to the city but then players would continually ask to be jailed, as a free trip home! It became a problem. So the long walk was created.

; When I logged in I was sent to jail, can you tell me why and how long for?

: It sounds like an arrest warrant was placed for you. The message is supposed to be sent to you explaining the reason and time but it can be lost. Please, if you need details do ask /support but please ask nicely. If someone is available they will search back to find out why you were jailed and how long for. If noone answers please just be patient and try again later.

; Why can't visitors to jail move items around, or use items, either?

; Why can't I message my friends with a private message from inside jail?

: We had trouble with abusive messages being sent from nasty players inside jail, as a revenge. So now you can only use /support. And please be aware that if you abuse /support you will likely be banned.

: Because items can't be dropped in jail, putting someone there is the only way we can secure their safety, until the password is changed. It doesn't necessarily mean that we think they did anything wrong! Those who are put in jail for their own safety will not need to do the long exit walk, either.
