These are the rules of Aarchon. For other matters, use common sense.
Stupidity, like ignorance, is not an excuse.
1) Changes to these rules are at the discretion of the immortals, and may
be done without warning, notice, or even evidence of sanity.
2) Your presence here is a privilege not a right. Obey any orders from
gods, and you will be fine. Deletion does not require a reason,
appeals are to be sent to the implementor (Bobble).
3) Sitting around idle with a client is hazardous to your health. Along those
lines, creating a bot for your character to let it run around completing
quests, gathering gold, or other activities, is illegal and is punishable.
4) No kill stealing. This means you cannot attack a mob someone else is
fighting, unless they ask you to. Also, try to avoid attacking fleeing
mobs. You wouldn't care to whittle a tough mob down near death and
have it flee, just to let the player in the next room kill it and take
the experience and equipment. Think about it.
5) No quest stealing. This means you cannot sit at a quester, watch other
people's quests, and then race them to the spot to either kill their
quest mobs or to sac their quest items. This is a common courtesey
issue that will be dealt with in the same way as kill stealing from a
disciplinary point of view.
6) Cheating will not be tolerated. This includes accepting favors from
gods and exploiting bugs. If you find a bug, report it - do not use it.
Violators will be dealt with accordingly, up to and including deletion.
7) This is a community, and sexual harassment will not be tolerated in any
way, shape, or form. You will be deleted, period. Repeat offenders
will be site banned.
8) Comments / Language that are offensive, vulgar, or derogatory are
not allowed here in any way, shape, or form. Use common sense.
Harassing, spamming, or constantly antagonizing other players, and
excessive complaining is not tolerated either. Read above. This is
a community. Note: Roleplay is accepted but should not step far
into the above territory. Immortal discretion will be used here.
9) Along those lines, characters who pick names which are deemed offensive
(or even annoying) by the gods will be asked to choose something else.
Names which are candidates for this include: sexual innuendo,
profanity, and general stupidity. If it doesn't sound like it could
possibly be someone's (fictional) name, don't use it. No guarantees
are made that players who are asked to recreate will be given their
same equipment, level, etc. afterward, so choose wisely the first time.
10) Do not actively bring about the death of someone who you would not be
eligible to murder. This includes the case when you are not a pkiller,
the victim is not a pkiller, or you arent in range of each other.
Summoning them to an aggressive mob, or summoning the mob to them are
examples of violations of this rule.
This rule includes healing or spelling up someone during a pkill or
clanwar fight that you are ineligible to join for any reason, including
pkill or clan status, or level range.
11) Remort can only be discussed on private channels, so that players who
want to be challenged by the remort puzzles, do not have their experience
spoiled. You may ask for help on public channels, and then take it
to tells.
12) There is a protocol to appeal immortal decisions. This protocol is posted
rather explicitly in 'HELP PROTOCOL'. Another helpfile worth checking
is HELP PENALTY_GRID, because the imms use this to decide on punishments.
13) Stealing someone's password or character in any form will not be tolerated.
14) Above all, and most importantly, this place is intended to be fun -- for
both mortals and immortals. Enjoy yourselves!
