Rules & help

The short version

  • Respect people and keep private information private.
  • Play fairly: no cheats, duplication or reward farming.
  • Raiding and PvP are allowed where the server permits them.
  • Keep teams to four players; do not use alts to bypass limits.
  • Report problems privately and appeal with evidence.

Last updated:

Penalties escalate with severity and repeat behavior: warning, mute or temporary ban, then permanent ban. Serious cheating may result in an immediate ban. Exact ban durations depend on the case.
