Modern Nights logs IC content automatically.

==What Gets Logged?==
All poses written in IC gridsquares are logged unless poselogging is turned off in that specific area. When a staff member is present, OOC commentary is logged. IC phone usage is logged (texts, conversations).

==Why?==
*1) So there are fewer ST bottlenecks: On other games, individual staffers independently log information, and plots can get tied up when someone doesn't remember, isn't available, or lost their logs. Here, we just save everything.
*2) To spy on characters, not players: OOC conversations that were had between players and only players should remain explicitly private. We disable staff invisibility on IC grid squares and save poses so that the only 'candid' activity a staffer can see is IC activity.
*3) To provide OOC oversight to IC spying: Instead of allowing staffers to dark-watch scenes, they have to access pose logs through a method Batty monitors and provide a reason, e.g. "Jim is magically looking backwards in time."

==Can I Turn It Off?==
Yes. If you own a gridsquare (e.g. your home), you can type "+privacy" and turn off logging. If you are in an ICly indoor location, you can type "+privacy" and turn off logging for 3 hours. You cannot turn it off in public locations. Please be warned in advance that staff is not obligated to uphold anything they cannot prove happened through pose logs or +notes. +Privacy does not defend you against ongoing IC spying like an obfuscated vampire - it just omits your poses from logs.
