+### Avoid pointer use
+
+BYOND has a variable type called pointers, which allow you to reference a variable rather then its value. As an example of how this works:
+
+```
+var/pointed_at = "text"
+var/value = pointed_at // copies the VALUE of pointed at
+var/reference = &pointed_at // points at pointed_at itself
+
+// so we can retain a reference even if pointed_at changes
+pointed_at = "text AGAIN"
+world << (*reference) // Deref to get the value, outputs "text AGAIN"
+
+// or modify the var remotely
+*reference = "text a THIRD TIME"
+world << pointed_at // outputs "text a THIRD TIME"
+```
+
+The problem with this is twofold.
+- First: if you use a pointer to reference a var on a datum, it is essentially as if you held an invisible reference to that datum. This risks hard deletes in very unclear ways that cannot be tested for.
+- Second: People don't like, understand how pointers work? They mix them up with classical C pointers, when they're more like `std::shared_ptr`. This leads to code that just doesn't work properly, or is hard to follow without first getting your mind around it. It also risks hiding what code does in dumb ways because pointers don't have unique types.
+
+For these reasons and with the hope of avoiding pointers entering general use, be very careful using them, if you use them at all.
