Blacklisting

Blacklisting is when the player is denied access to a shop, inn, Cyberspace site, or even an entire town or city, usually as a result of having done something wrong.

Effects
When the player is blacklisted from something, the manager or whoever is closest to the entrance in which they are trying to enter will block their way. Blacklisting also affects Karma. The Karma deduction is exponential, as it is a power of two. This means that getting blacklisted from a few things has little to no effect, but being blacklisted from more things will start to have a more significant impact on how the player is treated.

Resolving
Blacklistings, in most cases, can be resolved by talking to the manager, and also giving them some money. However, if the infraction was serious enough, or if the player tries to sneak in and/ir fake their identity, the manager may not forgive them. If a shop or inn closes or a Cyberspace site shuts down, the blacklisting is automatically removed and the Karma deduction is reversed. Blacklistings can also be resolved by getting their Karma reset.

Causes
The following actions can get a player blacklisted:
 * Stealing items (may also get the player arrested).
 * Bringing a pet (some places require pets to be kept somewhere outside).
 * Coming in with a weapon equipped.
 * Coming in while poisoned.
 * Attempting to sneak into forbidden and/or restricted areas.
 * Showing symbols of Inflamica (only happens in many places in Flamenica; showing symbols of Flamenica in a shop or inn in Inflamica can also get a player blacklisted, as Inflamica and Flamenica are bitter rivals).
 * Showing association with a different world (only happens during the war between the seven worlds).
 * Coming in with a fake identity if the player is already blacklisted (this still counts as another blacklisting even though it is the same place).
