Currently there are no alignment restrictions linked to classes. It is possible but will require code modifications/enhancements.

Regarding asking for a player email address, you can require a valid email from players by setting an email ban. Players type in an email address, the mud sends them an unlock code, they use this code the first time they play their character.

Archaic is just a language some of the immortals on the original decided they wanted.

To add an email ban that requires email addresses from anyone that connects from aol.com say.

permban *.aol.com email (to start creating the ban profile)
ban (to get a list of the bans)
banedit 0 (to edit the most recent ban)
allowed (to enter the string editor, key in allowed email addresses 1 per line)
* (to say accept any email)
@ (to quit the string editor)
show (to admire your work)
done (to get out of ban edit)

Thats it, email addresses will show up with laston -e for admin.

Also to remove the ban, type allow *.aol.com

In terms of the next release, looking at within 3 weeks at this stage. I just wrote a note about it on the dawn website last night.
