6.11.3 Shop Signs and the Licensed Master Shopkeeper

(see HELP SHOP POLICIES and HELP BINS)

MASTER SHOPKEEPERS ONLY: SHOP SIGNS
-----------------------------------
Licensed master shopkeepers, and no one else, may purchase shop signs. Shop
signs may only be purchased in shops owned by master shopkeepers. If you are
standing in your shop and do not yet have one, you will be notified that you
can make the purchase, and the cost of it.  Shop signs are non-refundable and
non-returnable, so consider carefully before purchasing. No more than one shop
sign may appear in any shop.


HOW TO USE THE SHOP SIGN
------------------------
Simply enter your shop and then WRITE SIGN. The rest is just like any other
writing session (writing a letter, posting a news item, etc).


LIMITATIONS and LANGUAGE
------------------------
The content of the shop signs is subject to the language rules of our realms
(HELP LANGUAGE RULES). Violating shop signs may result in removal of the sign
and/or loss of license, possibly permanently.


CONFIGURING THE SHOP SIGN
-------------------------
You may control the colour of your SHOP SIGN as a configuration option. Type
CONFIG COLOUR and you will see the setting there: CONFIG COLOUR SHOP_SIGN
<colour>.

Everyone that enters your shop will see the sign at that colour, no matter what
their config settings may be for viewing 'things' in rooms. If the person
entering does not have ansi colour enabled, then the sign will not be coloured
differently from anything else.
