Code of conduct

Vaelenor is a shared world. These rules apply to chat, names, guilds and any interaction between players.

1. Respect

No insults, harassment, hate speech, threats or stalking — over race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability or anything else. Disagreeing is fine; attacking the person is not.

2. Chat

• No spam, flooding, sustained caps or advertising other services.
• No explicit sexual, violent or illegal content.
• No sharing of personal data (yours or someone else's).
• No scams, chain messages or promises of items/currency outside the game.

3. Names

Character and guild names follow the same rules as chat. A name that is offensive, impersonates the game staff or is misleading may be changed without notice.

4. Account

• The account is yours: do not share, sell or trade it.
• You are responsible for everything that happens on it — protect your password.
• Selling items, gold or characters for real money is forbidden.

5. Fair play

• No bots, macros, scripts or automation of any kind.
• No exploiting bugs. Found a flaw that grants an advantage? Report it instead of using it — using it is a violation, reporting helps the server.
• No interfering with the game's availability (attacks, overload, reverse engineering the services).

6. Reporting and blocking

Found someone breaking the rules? Use report on the player's profile: it goes to the staff. To solve it right away, block them — blocking cuts chat, PvP challenges and mutual visibility.

Repeated false reports are a violation too.

7. Penalties

Depending on severity and repetition: warning, temporary mute, rollback of improperly obtained items, suspension or permanent ban. Automation and bug exploitation usually go straight to the harsher penalties.

8. Rule changes

The game is evolving; rules and values may change to keep it balanced. Relevant changes are announced in the News and in this wiki.
