Cheating ======== Any players caught cheating may have their character and/or equipment et cetera permanently removed by the administration. Other kinds of punishments are possible as well. Partying, sharing pcity rooms or even otherwise interacting with players that cheat may bring you under suspicion as well. Willingly collaborating with cheaters can result in you and your property to become collateral damage. It is better to report and avoid cheaters if you are aware of their actions. In contrast, you can be awarded for catching and reporting people that cheat. This kind of awarding will be done quietly, so that you are in no danger of retribution. What exactly is cheating is generally defined by archwizards - if in doubt, refer to 'help archwizards are always right'. A non-exhaustive list of punishable activity examples follows: - Taking advantage of a monster that stops fighting back. - Using items / abilities that cause damage or start fights in no-combat rooms (for example Arelium church altar room). - Knowingly and/or continuously abusing, instead of reporting, bugs that give some kind of advantage to the player. Examples of such bugs include, but are not limited to, are: * Bugs that cause monsters to lose (part) of their battle abilities. * Infinite or "free" money / eq / experience. - Purposefully crashing the game, causing excessive lag, or other such acts that cause harm to the game. - Roboting (using triggers that allow your character to perform actions while you are not present, see 'help robot') - Using "meta-game" features to force other players to do actions, such as abusing their _legal_ triggers. - Playing multiple characters (unregistered secondaries).
