Blacklist / Discretionary Rules
Updated
All offences which are listed in this category are under Administration or Management Discretion before a Permanent Blacklist is issued.
Spam Botting
Using alternative accounts or bots to spam messages in public chat, private messages, or any other part of the network is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Flooding chat with repetitive or disruptive messages
- Coordinated spamming or command spamming (visible or not) using multiple accounts
- Using automated bots to advertise, harass, or disrupt gameplay
- Violations of this rule will result in a punishment, which may include temporary or permanent bans of all associated accounts.
Blackmail
Any form of threat directed at an individual to demand items, favours, or any other benefit in exchange for withholding or not revealing compromising or damaging information to the authorities (staff members) is strictly prohibited.
- Attempts to blackmail another user on the network will not be tolerated and will result in appropriate disciplinary action.
Chargeback
Chargebacks on donations after the purchased items have been received and claimed are strictly prohibited.
- Important: If a purchase is made under your username and a chargeback occurs after the transaction has been confirmed and the items have been claimed, you must immediately create a Support Ticket. The charged-back item(s) will be removed from your account without exception.
If you have already used or traded any charged-back item(s), all items, perks, and rewards obtained through these items will be revoked. Additionally, failure to return all charged-back items to staff, or any attempt to hide, lie about, or otherwise conceal these items, will result in a permanent blacklist from the network.
- This policy is in place to maintain fairness and protect the integrity of the community.
Buycraft Scamming
Scamming within the limits of the network’s control is technically allowed but strongly discouraged, as it may still result in punishment in certain cases.
Buycraft Scamming, however, is strictly prohibited. Scamming related to Buycraft transactions, including voucher codes or any Buycraft deals, is not allowed and will result in disciplinary action. This includes, but is not limited to, failing to provide promised items such as a Sharpness 8 sword following a rank upgrade.
Buycraft Refunding Process:
- The victim of a Buycraft scam is not required to repay for any items or ranks received. Instead, the corresponding rank/items will be removed or revoked.
- The offender who performs a chargeback on the victim will be permanently blacklisted from the network.
- If the victim traded in-game items for Buycraft items, ranks, or voucher codes, the victim will receive their original in-game items back.
