Offensive, provocative or inappropriate names are not permitted and will be changed without prior notice.
2. Fair Play
2.1 Bots and Third-Party Programs
Bots, macros or any external program that provides unfair advantages are prohibited. Modifying the game client or bypassing server restrictions will result in an immediate permanent ban.
2.2 Bug Exploitation
Exploiting bugs or glitches is not allowed. If you find a bug, report it to Staff immediately through official channels. Taking advantage of errors will result in severe penalties.
2.3 Multiple Accounts
Multiple accounts are permitted, but may not be used to gain unfair advantages. Abuse in events, prize distribution or farming will result in penalties across all associated accounts.
3. Trade and Economy
3.1 Fair Trade
Trade between players must be transparent and honest. Scams or deceptive trade practices will not be tolerated and will result in penalties.
3.2 Real-Money Transactions
Selling, buying or exchanging in-game goods or accounts for real money is strictly prohibited. Any attempt will result in a permanent ban.
4. In-Game Interactions
4.1 Kill Stealing (KS)
The first player or group to attack a monster has the right to defeat it. If you attack a monster by accident, apologize and withdraw from combat.
4.2 Griefing
Intentionally interfering with other players' gameplay is not allowed. Deliberately luring monsters to cause other players' deaths is prohibited.
4.3 Looting
Drops belong to the player or party who defeated the monster, unless another arrangement has been agreed upon in advance.
4.4 MvP Bosses
MvP bosses can be contested by any player (standard KS rules do not apply). Fair competition is expected — do not interfere with another group's skills or mechanics through deliberate disruption. The MvP's aggro and its summoned minions may be taken by any player or group.

All general rules remain in effect during WoE. Use of hacks, exploits or unauthorized programs will result in severe penalties.

Alliances between guilds must be declared to Staff and respected during the event.

A more relaxed atmosphere in chat is permitted after WoE, but racial, gender-based or similar insults remain prohibited. Staff may mute or penalize players if chat becomes unmanageable.
6. Events and Competitions
6.1 Event Participation
Respect the specific rules of each event. Cheating will result in disqualification and further penalties.
