Things to know before you go

One thing I did find out when I began working on the list is that several of the sims in question are dedicated roleplaying sims, and as such have rules for visitors. Others may not be as restrictive on one hand, but may have other rules that would be good to know before you get there.

I will also give the following information on any of the places the VRT staff visits...

  • Access to Visitors
    • Open - Anyone can come and go as they please
    • Restricted - Must go through greeter area or some restriction to access sim
    • Limited - Must wear tag or more to enter
  • Character Tags/Titles/HUDs
    • No tags - Visitors can freely mingle with residents
    • Yes - Visitors must wear titler/damage HUD in the sim
    • Yes-OC - Visitors 'fresh off the boat' must wear Out of Character tag/Visitor tag
  • Avatar Restrictions
    • None - Any type avatar, any era of dress
    • Limited - Recommended dress code or avatar restrictions 
    • Extended - Enforced dress code or avatar restrictions with broader scope
    • Strict - Enforced dress code or avatar restrictions with narrow scope

Plus, we will endeavor to point out where the visitor information is located, point out a few things worth seeing, and other tidbits of information that seem worthwhile of passing on.

After passing the idea around a few friends, we will also add the maturity rating of the sim, and if there are any Adult themes or things of that nature.  I will also make sure the staff mentions anything else relevant along those lines...
