SMOKING
IS NOT PERMITTED in the dungeon, the washrooms, or the vendor

smokers to the designated smoking area and make sure that no play
is conducted in the smoking area.
|
| D. |
NO
ALCOHOL OR DRUGS! |
| |
| |
Note:
This is the Vancouver DM Team's standard rule. Some events might
have alcohol and you will be advised by the DMC's ahead of time
if this is the case.
|
| 1. |
Anyone deemed to be under the influence of any drug (including
alcohol and prescription drugs) MAY be denied admittance, instructed
to cease play or asked to leave the event, based on the discretion
of the DM Coordinators.
Note: Some events may have alcohol on sale or may allow
the consumption of alcohol at the event. In these cases the
following rules will be in effect:
|
| 2. |
Alcohol
is only permitted in the lounge area. If you intend to play,
we ask that you not indulge in alcohol before… please save it
for after. BDSM play and alcohol don't mix. If the DM's believe
you are impaired your scene will be stopped. The DM's decision
is final.
Further notes:
| a. |
The
Dungeon Play area will be under the direct control of
our DM's at all times There will be no consumption of
alcohol in the Dungeon Area at any time.
|
| b. |
Anyone
using illegal drugs, poppers, or any other mind-altering
substances during the party will be asked to leave, with
further legal and disciplinary actions to be determined
by the D.M. Coordinators and Event Management.
|
| c. |
Monitors
must be aware not only of people trying to use such substances
during a party, but more importantly, of the fact that
if a person has consumed a large quantity of drugs just
prior to arriving (particularly alcohol) the full effect
may not hit them until after they're past the door and
possibly playing. If a person appears to be acting progressively
more "intoxicated" as time goes by, and there is no evidence
of on-site usage, they may be experiencing the cumulative
effects of prior use. If you have any questions in this
area, enlist the opinion of another Monitor or a D.M.
Coordinator.

|
|
| E. |
ABSOLUTELY
NO ACTS OF PROSTITUTION ARE ALLOWED. This is defined by the offer
or acceptance of money for sexual acts, including SM play by individuals.
If the scene isn't free, it isn't done! Anyone violating this policy
will immediately be asked to leave the Dungeon, with further disciplinary
actions to be determined by the DMC and event host/s.

PHOTOGRAPHING,
VIDEOTAPING, AND AUDIOTAPING ARE NOT PERMITTED. The DMC's must
be made aware of any photographic approvals before pictures are taken.

OPEN
FLAMES OF ANY KIND ARE NOT PERMITTED, without prior permission
from event Staff and only in designated areas determined by the DM
Coordinators and Event Management. If someone wants to do fire play
or wax play it is up to the DM to make sure that the players have
adequate tarps to protect furniture and floors and a fire extinguisher
is readily available. They need to also make sure that the play is
not in a trafficked area and to inform the other Monitors. Tarps are
available for use. Players will be responsible for cleaning the tarp
after their scene. Then the tarp is to be returned to the DM's. Isopropyl
alcohol, etc., used in fireplay scenes, must be kept on a stable surface
in containers that will not tip or spill.
