The rules for the Ingame Chat and Forum are as follows:
1. Keep Spamming to a minimum and don't post ENTIRELY off-topic. If anybody spams multiple times, then a warning should be given.
Spam on the forums is making posts containing only some small word(s) or posting completely off-topic.
This is either to gain post count or to troll. Some examples:
- People posting "bump" to bump own threads.
- Completely posting off-topic.
- Posting nonsense such as "auipfbapifbrfapb-lol".
Spamming is only allowed in the Off-Topic section of the forum, nowhere else!
2. Do not advertise the buy or sale of any real world good.
This includes everything related to real life money.
3. Do not advertise for buy or sale Runescape Accounts/Runescape items/Runescape cash.
4. Respect the Staff
5. Do not ask for real world information from any player you do not know in the real world.
6. Please keep arguing (flaming) to a minimum, this also includes trolling.
7. DefinitionX does not tolerate spamming of advertisements anywhere within DX-community.
You cannot advertise the following:
* A fellow website, or another community.
* A Youtube channel.
* Servers, Runescape, or any other game.
* Fansites (Unless it's DX approved, Also must be affiliated.)
If caught spamming or advertising the above, without a warrant, a moderator will jail you, ask you questions
and either mute or punish you in any other way. Depends on the situation. On the forum this will lead to a forum ipban.
8. Signatures should not take up more than 1 screen. Don't overflow our forum with useless pictures!
9. Nude pictures or any other explicit material as avatar/profile picture/signature isn't tolerated either.
Posting them is obviously against the rules as well. For Pete's sake, we have children playing this game.
10. Impersonating a staff member will resolve in an instant ban/ipban.
11. Glitching through walls/noclipping is a reportable offence as well. Players that are found doing this will recieve
a ::warn on their first offence and some explanation in jail. If they do it again after this warning you have the right to
ban them for a day or two.
12. Threatening to shut down the server resolves into an immediate ipban.
13. Please use the yell channel only when it's necessary, conversations should be held in the regular chat or over
private messages.
14. Multi logging, using more than 1 character at one time, to gain an unfair advantage towards other players isn't allowed
either. First a warning shall be given, the next offence will resolve in a 24h ban.
15. Please keep swearing to a minimum, no excessive swearing allowed otherwise action will be taken. Also please don't direct swearing towards people. We don't mind swearing, we just don't want to look at it all the time.
