Age disclaimer
Some of the material posted on this wiki relates to Mature Themes, and is not intended for consumption by those of less than 18 years of age. Don't make me have to chase you off my lawn with a broom, you damned kids!
Ownership of content
Content created by us: Creators of content on RocksfallWiki hold the rights to that content posted to the Wiki. In other words, please don't steal our charaters, our test systems, or our settings without asking. If you ask nicely, we'll probably let you use it anyway.
Content created by others: We maintain no claim over content created by others. In other words, anything put up on this wiki which is the intellectual property of anyone other than the editors of the wiki is NOT intended to challenge the right of the author. It is here simply to allow us easier access. If anything here is a significant problem, please let us know.
Content under the OGL: Posting OGL content on this wiki without the OGL license is not implying we lay claim to the content, or that the content belongs to others and cannot be used. It's simply up here for our own use. This applies to any other open-source data posted, but not clearly marked as open source.
Yes. The first two seem to contradict, don't they? Most gamers, I think, will understand. We post some small content, like a few roll tables, equivalent to photocopying a page or two from a book, to make the GM's job a little easier. But on the same hand, if we come up with wonderful new characters, we may not want to find them in some one's fantasy short story or novel for sale (or even just floating around the web). Not as much as a contradiction as you might think.
As for the lack of clear distinction between that content which belongs to a RocksfallWiki editor, a third party, or is released under the OGL... In all things, this is a casual wiki.
And...
We're also lovely lovely people. <3
