Game Rules

This part was made after User:Jaxad0127/Rules Dialog where you can find translations

Players breaking the following rules may be banned (up to and including a permanent ban) or have their characters reset at the GM's discretion:

  1. Do not abuse other players (insults, swearing, and the like directed to a particular person or persons)
  2. No bots (and botting means ANY activity while away from keyboard)
    Botting will be determined by talking to players who are moving and/or attacking.
  3. No spamming / flooding (including trade spam)
  4. No begging
  5. Speak English on public chat
  6. Treat others the same way you would like to be treated


Game Masters (GM) and Administrators are in charge of enforcing the rules

Game and forum rules by Platyna

Platyna said: Ref. Forum Post : Game and forum rules. Well, time to set some rules:

  1. Do not abuse other players (it means insults, swearing etc. directed to a particular person/s)
  2. No bots (and by botting I also mean ANY AFK activity in game).
  3. No spamming/flooding (including trade spam).
  4. No begging.
  5. Speak English on public chat.
  6. RFC 1855.

-These rules may change in the future, so it is worth to take a look on this thread from time to time.

  • Notice WIN ERR 001:Replying to spam threads/posts is also spamming. Five warnings will be issued and then a username/IP/email will be banned.[1]
  • Spamming or trolling on forum to boost your post count, to be able to vote in GM election polls is a subject for instant ban.[[2]]
  • Some precisions: (Post subject: Re: is it also forbidden to attack the same mobs as another
    • There is no rule forbidding following other players. There is a rule preventing to annoy players and to use automation to gain advantage over other players which is unfair. If a GM suspects botting, s/he is supposed to execute a standard botcheck on each char.
    • Also it is not forbidden to attack the same mob as another char, it is even encouraged to play in teams (of living people), this question is completely pointless as there are and there were no rule forbidding it. Common sense is a rule of all rules, appliance of the rules could be some way automated I would get rid of GMs and introduce rules-enforcing bots.
    • Common sense is a rule of all rules, appliance of the rules could be some way automated I would get rid of GMs and introduce rules-enforcing bots.
