-<p>While this is not found under the Settings window, it is a setting which affects accounts (you can find it under the People section after clicking on a character). Avoidance is a feature which allows you to avoid certain player accounts for new character spawns. By setting avoidance for a character, new spawns on your account will not spawn in locations where the characters of this player's account exist. <b>Your adult spawns will appear in a different location, and your child spawns will never have them as a parent.</b>

Avoidance is a feature that allows you to avoid certain player accounts for tierborn spawns. By setting avoidance for a character, your child spawns will never have them as a parent. This setting no longer impacts the spawning location of your adultspawns.

-Any characters that have been avoided can be removed, just go to "Account Settings" under the "Account" tab in-game or in the character selection menu. There is a button labeled "Avoidance" in the menu, and clicking it will reveal which characters that have been set to be avoided by the account. <b>Characters/Accounts that have been set on avoid will not show on the list until after three months have passed with the option of removal available.</b><i>No one will be notified by setting this option, and this option does not change anything for current characters or the characters of the account being avoided.</i> You can avoid up to 15 accounts, with the oldest accounts being overwritten once that cap is reached.

 From a technical standpoint:<br>
-<b>Adults</b>: Adult spawns have a static position they will go to if there is no other valid spawn point (affected by where your own characters are, where avoided accounts are, and where other racial groups are).
+<b>Adultspawns</b>: Adult spawns have a static position they will go to if there is no other valid spawn point (affected by where your own characters are and where other racial groups are).
 <br>
-<b>Children</b>: Child spawns will skip the parents of accounts that are being avoided, they simply will not spawn with them. If only avoiding accounts are in line for those parents, a shortage message will be sent out about needing children in the race. If no one puts in a child that is not avoiding the parents for the entire 2 days of the parents waiting for a kid to be matched to them, then the spawning will fail and will not produce a child.

 <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Child_Adoption">Child Adoption</span></h2>
-<p>Adoption is the ability for an account to skip the queue and take over a character who was either unwanted or neglected on another account. Adoption is only available to accounts that qualify for having a child of the available race - meaning, you cannot adopt children if you already have filled child slots or if you already play the race that is adoptable, etc. Accounts that are able to adopt will see the option appear in the upper right corner of the navigation bar with a number indicating how many children are available. Accounts can only adopt a child if they have reached 22 years old on an adultspawn, in order to avoid players finding out they don't enjoy playing children and wasting an opportunity for that child to be adopted by a player that enjoys playing that role. You cannot adopt a child who is on the same tile as another of your characters.

 </p><p><b>Child adoption does fall under the 2 day rule for OOC discussion.</b> It is not appropriate to discuss who is adopting, who players of the parents of the adoptee are, and the event of adoption in general until two days after it has been resolved. These discussions can affect who adopts the child, and therefore IC events.
 </p><p><b>Adoption is not affected by avoidance.</b> Avoidance only affects the spawning of your own created characters, it does not affect what options you see as characters who are up for adoption.
