Editing Server Rules (section)

= Server Rules =

'''TL;DR:''' Be nice, have fun. Don't cheat or RMT.

== Community Conduct ==

The most important rule is to exercise respect, common decency, and common sense.  
Let's be the best versions of ourselves to foster a positive and welcoming community.

* Treat everyone with respect.
* Be kind to fellow players.
* Sexism, racism, harassment, hate speech, or similar behavior is strictly prohibited.
* Do not lie, steal, or cheat.

Help keep the server fair and balanced for everyone.

** Selling accounts or items for real money is not allowed.

== Exploits ==

* Please privately report any exploits you discover.

* Players who report exploits may be rewarded.
* Players who abuse exploits will be punished.

== GRF Edits ==

GRF edits are allowed for visual improvements, including:

* Gray maps
* Visual skill changes
* Large monster sprites

However, the following are '''not allowed''':

* Modifying player sprites (e.g., Titan GRF used for easier targeting in WoE)

== Cheats, Bots, and Automation ==

Cheating, hacking, or automating gameplay is strictly prohibited.

Allowed:
* Hardware macros (e.g. Razer Synapse, Logitech G HUB)

Not allowed:
* Sickpot
* AutoHotkey (AHK)
* NoDelay
* WPE
* Any other software automation tools

Hardware macros must '''not''' be used to create bots (e.g. automatic teleport and cast loops).

If you are not actively at your PC playing the game, it will be considered botting.

== Accounts ==

* Only '''one Master Account per person''' is allowed.
* Do not use multiple PCs or accounts to bypass restrictions.
* Certain entities (such as large guilds) may have a shared master account for managing guild resources.

== GM Impersonation ==

* Do not impersonate a GM.
* Do not speak on behalf of GMs unless repeating official statements.

== Scamming ==

Do not intentionally scam or mislead players.

Examples include:

* Selling items at deceptive prices
* Buying items for less than their NPC sell value
* Misrepresenting rarity
* False vending titles

== Multi-Clienting ==

Multi-clienting is allowed.

However, it may '''not''' be used to bypass restrictions or obtain rewards intended for one player.

Examples:

* WoE rewards
* Instanced loot

== Griefing & Mob Control ==

Do not intentionally disrupt other players.

Examples of prohibited behavior:

* Mob dropping
* Opening Warp Portals where players are expected to stand
* Protecting mobs from other players using skills (Safety Wall, Pneuma, etc.)
* Blocking players with Ice Wall
* Leaving low HP mobs on shared maps
* Casting Kyrie Eleison on another party's tank to remove Assumptio
* Using Eske on mobs purely to disrupt others

Skill usage is allowed when it is part of a genuine strategy to kill the monster.
