We're quite lenient, but constant violation will result in everything you shared with us revealed, and your name denounced. > After you've decided to go on a hiatus, you're strictly forbidden to share our knowledge in any form, the one you learned from the curatory resources and the knowledge you learned from individuals. If you traded goods with another member, you can't share them and they stay inside MENACE.
