What is cloning and why is it illegal using palace?
-Cloning is where you use an illegal palace client to steal someone's avatars, or you print screen to steal it indiscretely.

Making avatars is an artform, now matter how small it is, and it is just like infringing on someone's copyright on a painting. Make your own avatars, its much more rewarding.
Someone has my avatar(s) that I haven't every given out, what should I do?
-Politely ask the person wearing your avatar where they got it from. Most likely if they have it, other people already have it, and it is no use in going off on someone. It's probably not their fault that they have it, someone else probably traded it to them. Just polietly ask them to stick your name in the edit boxes of the avatar/props or if you have a web page ask them to stick that in there before they give it out to anyone else. If you approach people that way, they are more than likely to be nice about and (at least say) they will stick your name in the props' edit boxes.
What do I do when someone clones me?
-Cloning is actually the only one true constant on palace, and it can NEVER be avoided unless you don't wear the avatars that you create. The only good way to act is if someone clones you, ask them very cordially(nicely) why they have cloned you, and tell them that it is illegal when using palace. If they do not want to listen, `page a wizard. It is sad that people do not respect you when you say 'No I'm not giving this avatar out just yet' but you will get used to it, even though it totally sucks.
