These standards apply to forums, global chat, crew chat, direct messages, player profiles, crew descriptions, ads, reports, names, avatars, images, signatures, and any other player-created content.

Core Standard

Compete hard. Do not make the game unsafe, hateful, sexually exploitative, spammy, or impossible to moderate.

Allowed

• Rivalry and trash talk that stays inside the game.
• Crew recruiting and crew identity.
• Trading, market discussion, price discussion, and item hunting.
• Strategy discussion.
• Roleplay that does not target real people or protected traits.
• Criticism of game systems when it is not abusive toward staff or players.

Not Allowed

Harassment And Hate

• Hate speech, slurs, or demeaning attacks based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age, or similar traits.
• Targeted harassment, dogpiling, stalking, or repeated unwanted contact.
• Encouraging self-harm or suicide.
• Celebrating real-world violence or tragedy to attack another person.

Private Information

• Posting or threatening to post real names, addresses, phone numbers, workplace details, family details, private social accounts, location data, payment information, IP addresses, or private photos.
• Asking others to find, leak, or contact someone outside the game.

Sexual Content

• Sexual content involving minors is never allowed.
• Sexual harassment, unwanted sexual comments, or explicit sexual messages are not allowed.
• Graphic sexual content is not allowed in public spaces.

Threats And Real-World Harm

• Real-life threats.
• Threats to hack, swat, stalk, blackmail, expose, or financially harm someone.
• Instructions for real-world violence, crime, fraud, hacking, or abuse.

Scams, Spam, And Malicious Content

• Phishing, malware, suspicious downloads, fake login links, fake staff messages, or impersonation.
• Spam floods, repeated ads, meaningless repeated posts, or disruptive formatting.
• Off-site sales of accounts, currency, items, tokens, or services.

Staff Disruption

• Impersonating staff.
• Lying about staff instructions.
• Evading moderation with alternate accounts.
• Filing knowingly false reports.
• Sharing private staff communications without permission when doing so disrupts moderation or exposes private information.

Names, Avatars, Images, And Profile Content

Staff may remove or change names, avatars, crew names, profile text, images, or signatures that violate the rules, impersonate another person, include prohibited content, or create moderation problems.

Blocks And Messages

• If a player blocks you, do not contact them through alternate accounts or third parties to continue the conflict.
• Staff accounts cannot be blocked because they need to send official notices.
• Blocking does not hide staff investigations or enforcement.

Moderation Levels

Staff may use warnings, content removal, mutes, temporary restrictions, account locks, suspensions, bans, and economy rollbacks depending on severity and history.

Context Matters

Staff may consider context, intent, prior history, volume, and impact. A single mistake may receive a warning. Coordinated abuse, threats, hate, doxxing, payment fraud, exploit abuse, or ban evasion can lead directly to severe action.
