@RULES UPDATES
The staff have voted to update / add to the rules. The changes are outlined below.
4.A. Failure to comply with punishment
OLD:
When you are bad, you will be punished. When you are punished, you need to comply with that punishment. You are more than welcome to defend yourself before your punishment is issued. After the fact, if you feel you have been treated unfairly, email [email protected] and explain your situation.
NEW:
If you break the rules, you will be punished. If you are punished, you need to comply with that punishment. If you feel you have been treated unfairly, email [email protected] and explain your situation, and a Senior Staff member will read and respond (if needed). Failing to comply with a punishment will result in a longer suspension or ban.
4.F. Community Harm
OLD: Sometimes a player's behavior, despite not breaking other rules, negatively impacts the entire game. The severity of this impact is subjective and decided by the admins by vote. If a player cannot de-escalate misbehavior after repeated communications with admins, they may be removed from the game for an extended, or even indefinite, period of time.
NEW:
Sometimes a player's behavior, despite not breaking other rules, negatively impacts a large portion of the community. The severity of this impact is subjective and decided by the admins by vote. If a player cannot de-escalate misbehavior after communications with admins, they may be suspended temporarily or permanently banned.
NEW: 4.I Multiple Accounts Playing from the same IP
Multiple people playing from the same IP address requires special permission from the admin. This is to prevent multi-playing (see 1.E). You may xhelp to speak with an admin or email [email protected] to request permission, though this permission may not be granted.
NEW: 4.J Using a Proxy or VPN
Due to a history of suspended & banned players using proxies & VPNs to hide their IP addresses and return to playing the game on new accounts while suspended or banned, connecting to the game using a Proxy or VPN is prohibited. If we detect you connecting from a proxy or VPN, we will remove you from the game and ask you to connect from your real IP address.
