• Treat every player with basic respect. Personal insults, harassment, and targeted hate are not tolerated.
• Excessive swearing aimed at other players — especially in public channels — is prohibited. Light language in private conversation between consenting players is acceptable.
• Discrimination of any kind — based on nationality, religion, gender, or any other personal trait — results in an immediate ban.
• Do not intentionally ruin another player's experience. This includes kill-stealing, luring monsters to players, or blocking spawn points out of spite.

• No spamming — do not flood any channel with repeated messages, symbols, or meaningless content.
• No advertising — promoting other servers, websites, or services in any channel is strictly forbidden.
• Keep public channels (default, trade, help) on topic. Heated arguments belong in private messages, not in shared spaces.
• Spreading false information about the server, staff, or other players with the intent to cause harm or panic is prohibited.

• The use of bots, macros, auto-clickers, or any third-party software that automates gameplay is forbidden.
• Exploiting bugs or glitches for personal gain is not allowed. Report any bugs you find to the staff — abusing them results in a ban.
• Multi-clienting — running multiple game clients simultaneously is allowed in a reasonable way. Only one character can be actively played, the rest should remain in a protected zone or at trainers.
• Do not attempt to scam other players. Unfair trades carried out in bad faith will be investigated and may result in a ban.

• Character names must not be offensive, vulgar, or contain insults directed at individuals or groups.
• Impersonating staff members or other known players with a similar name is forbidden.
• Names that exist solely to provoke or troll other players will be subject to a forced rename or deletion.

• Staff decisions are final. If you disagree with a punishment, reach out calmly through the appropriate channel — do not argue publicly.
• Staff will never ask for your password. Anyone claiming to be staff and requesting account details is impersonating.
• False reports submitted to waste staff time or to harm other players will themselves be treated as a violation.
