Hey there!
We've realised that there are many channels that are abused very often, that's why we've decided to make a guide about the correct use of the most abused channels. Let's go!
1. The newbie chat.
This channel is the most abused one. Its correct use consists of answering or asking questions related with the script, it's usually abused in an inmature way, and it bothers players who are asking or responding questions. If you abuse the channel, you'll be muted by a Senior Helper/Admin, and when you get unmuted, you'll have to either pay a fine or spend some time in the admin jail, so it is better to avoid it.
Examples of correct use:
2. The global chat.
This channel is also very abused, and not always in the same way as the newbie channel, since this chat has other purposes such as discussing OOC matters between players. This must NOT be abused, for example, using it as an advertisement, also spamming is not allowed, capital letters are not allowed etc.
Examples of correct use:
The abuse of this channel will also get you muted from the chat.
3. Advertisements.
This is a very commonly abused channel, it's been made for IC matters, and it must NOT be used in an OOC way, so you must only use the advertisements for In character issues.
Examples of correct use:
Examples of incorrect use:
Exactly the same here, use this in an incorrect way and you'll be muted straight away.
4. Report.
This channel is used if you need the administrator's help, for example, use it if you are stuck or if you saw a hacker, or maybe you saw a HA and need to complete a refund request... Use "/reporttips" in game for more information, here are some examples. Be very specific when reporting.
Examples of correct use:
Examples of incorrect use:
5. Help me.
This channel has a very specific purpose: Helping new players to start in Lawless and to get experienced, that's why, if it is abused or used for wrong reasons, you'll most likely be muted, and if you get a /helpme mute, you also get a /newb mute, so it is not very profit, this channel can be used to ask for directions or to ask multiple questions of one theme... Here are some examples.
Examples of correct use:
Examples of incorrect use:
I do not suggest that you abuse these channels because, as I said before, you can get easily muted, and the fine you have to pay is not very profitable.

Senior Helper Richard D Daniels: Lex - Use /findjob and then choose the job you'd like to find, then follow the red marker.
