World of Aeterna Forum and Server Rules
DIR By: ARuseler
Date: May 8, 2013, 6:51 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The intent behind these rules are for everyone to be excellent
to one another. Consider the people around you. Keep fair play
in mind. It's a game and nothing is gained, or lost, save the
experience. Fe can be re-earned. Equipment replenished. If you
become infuriated step away. If you make a mistake apologize. If
you wish to remain in Town after you die, or after someone has
moved away, simply ask.
Fair play, a level head and consideration for others are
paramount. The rules are not a sword or shield to be used for or
against someone, but to ensure that the server environment has
structure and allows everyone to have fun. Know them and
understand them.
1. No griefing
1.1 World of Aeterna is a ROLEPLAYING SERVER. Role playing is
REQUIRED while playing here.
Server administrators are: ARuseler, Ingotjuh, Ownz0r
1.2 Server administrators will impose sanctions on players for
violating server rules and for any actions that harm server
gameplay.
1.3 Not allowed on World of Aeterna forums:
- Posting abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, racist
materials;
- Advertising, especially commercial advertising, except (1)
advertising your own gaming websites or forums or (2) your own
game servers;

anime that is in any way slightly graphic or pornographic;
- Posting libel, defamatory, threatening materials and any
law-violating materials;
- Posting copyrighted material that does not belong to you and
redistribution of which was not allowed by the owner;
- Seizure-inducing pictures may be removed without warning.
1.4 Using bad language on forums is not allowed without any
exceptions. Flaming, abusing, and insulting other members in any
form, with or without a reason, is not allowed.
1.5 You troll you lose. Any alternative forum accounts used for
trolling or other disruptive non-roleplaying purposes will be
banned.
1.6 No ponies off the reservation. Any and all pony pics will be
removed without warning if they are not in their allocated
thread.
1.7 World of Aeterna forums are meant to be easily readable,
which means that:
- All posts must be in normal English.
- All posts should be readable with appropriate paragraph
division and punctuation.
- Posting with CAPS LOCK enabled is not recommended.
- You should not misspell nicknames of other forum members if
asked not to.
1.8 Signatures should not exceed 250 px (15 lines of text)
height or 700 px wide. Signatures that exceed this limit will be
edited with or without warning Embedded pictures must not exceed
700 px wide. Pictures that are too wide can be removed without
notice.
1.9 Administrators are obliged:
- To ensure work of World of Aeterna server;
- To be fair and treat all players equally, independent of their
level and town alignment;
- Not to mix server roleplaying with server administration in
any way;
- Not to ignore any cases of server rules violations that are
reported.
1.10 Player who is violating a server rule can be warned in the
game or on forums. If the player does not ignore the warning,
does not repeat the violation, and tries to reduce the negative
consequences of what he/she did, this player would not be
sanctioned.
Warning is optional. In case of a violation, especially a
serious one, sanction can be applied straightaway.
Possible sanctions for rule violations are:
- Removal of certain equipment from player (equipment fine);
- Removal of Fe from character, % or fixed sum (Fe fine);
- Placing inside a prison system;
- Deleting character;
- Banning account on forums and/or in-game;
- Banning IPs;

- Renaming player;
- Changing reputations, rank or town membership.
2. Cheating & Hacking
2.1 Following actions are considered cheating on server:
- Using mods, speed-related and loot-related mods especially, as
well as using modifications that improve stats of items;
- Changing account information and using any kinds of software
that changes normal gameplay;
- Cloning, e.g. creating new characters to collect starting
money;
- Single player having more than one instance of Minecraft open
to play multiple of their own characters;
2.2 Threats or attempts to hack server, both successful and
unsuccessful, will result in banning your server accounts
forever, as well as blocking access to the server and forums.
3. Rules of conduct
3.1 Using coarse language, posting abusive, hateful, racist
content in chat, public or private is prohibited under any
circumstances. Any kind of flaming, threatening or insulting
language directed at other members, factions or server
administrators in chat, public or private, is prohibited on
server and on forums. RP-related threats are allowed on the
server.
3.2 All messages in system chat must be in understandable
English.
3.3 Out-of-character (OOC) chat must not be used in Global or
local chat. OOC communication in group or private chat between
players will cease if one player requests it. Admins are free to
communicate with any player at any time.
3.4 Threatening other players with reports and sanctions,
attempting to pose as an Admin and using an Admin's name without
permission is not allowed.
3.5 Names of new characters should be set up with role-playing
nature of our server in mind. This means that:
- Names should contain no swear words.
- Country of player origin must not be used in character names.
- Names with excessive use of random symbols, capital letters,
numbers, symbols, leet speak, emoticons should not be used.
4. Official Player Faction/Town Rules
4.1 All rules and regulations concerning faction/town creation
procedure and home system claiming are listed in this thread:
Faction Creation Rules.
4.2 Administrators reserve the right to limit recruiting for
certain official player factions for a certain period of time to
keep server factions balanced.
4.3 Official player factions are free to restrict or not
restrict access to their owned systems and tax players who enter
owned system. However, properly Tagged and ID'd independent
players may enter Guard/Owned systems, and cannot be taxed.
Access to factions, nations or towns that surround owned areas
must not be restricted unless there's a war with another
faction.
4.4 Official player factions have the right to bounty or attack
any player who is using their name or glory and not part of the
faction or town.
5. General PvP Rules
5.1 All attacks must be the result of some form of role play.
"Die" is not sufficient. An attack is any hostile action that
drains health to less than 75%. Being hit once is not considered
an attack. If a player is attacked he has a right to defend
himself regardless of who is attacking.
5.2 Characters that are a Traveler are considered to be low
ranked players and may only be attacked if at least one of the
following conditions is met:
a) They attack you first by draining your health to 75%
b) They are at the scene of a battle between yourself and
someone else and refuse to leave when told to leave. (Low ranked
players should leave the area when combat takes place or accept
the risk of being attacked if remaining. Onlookers are fair
targets.)
c) Attacking a player base, city or town.
5.3 Fleeing from combat and then hiding inside a protected area
while you are in range of the enemy you were fighting counts as
PVP death. Going out of range of the enemy within a PVP area is
allowed, this is to prevent border hopping.
5.4 A player who was killed in a PvP fight must not enter the
area or city where the fight took place with any of the
characters on his/her account(s) until 2 hours has passed from
the time of his/her death.
If the player respawns in the same area or city, he/she must
leave the are/city within 10 minutes of his destruction without
attacking anyone, except in self-defense. Other players are not
allowed to attack one who is leaving.
If the enemy (character or characters) leave the game before two
hours have passed, the player may return to the Area/city. If
the enemy then returns to the game they may request the player
leave the area/city again until two hours have passed since the
original time of death.
5.8 A player who was killed in a PvP fight must not attack the
enemy (character or characters involved in the death) with any
of the characters on his/her account(s) for 2 hours.
Self-killing, friendly fire kills or death to NPCs during a PvP
fight are counted as normal PvP deaths.
5.9 Disconnecting from the server in a PvP fight to escape, as
well as in any other situation that involves player interaction,
is not allowed. If you lose server connection during a player
interaction, you should get back in game quickly to continue the
interaction, with the other player's permission. If that is not
possible, then post on the forums and PM the players involved.
6. Town Membership
7.1 Bounty-hunting, mercenary and freelance hire
All bounties must be posted on the forum. If you attack another
player to claim a bounty and the bounty is not posted on the
forum, you are open to a PvP abuse sanction.
Mercenaries, freelancers and bounty hunters may be hired on the
spot in game to assist with a combat without a forum post. The
other parties involved in the combat must be made aware of
this.*
*Don't, like, be a mercenary hiring another mercenary to kill
someone and then that mercenary hires you to help so you can run
around mercenarying people. Or the admins will probably delete
your account.
8. Battle Cloud
8.1 The Battle Cloud is a non-RP Area. Nothing you do there
needs to have an RP basis.
8.2 All attacks on The Battle cloud must be preceded by an
agreement to such by all parties that will be involved in the
combat. This does not have to be an RP agreement, just an
agreement to start killing.
8.3 Bad behaviour in Battle cloud will be sanctioned under 1.2.
Respect each other in there.
8.4 Offical factions/towns are obliged to balance Battle cloud
time with RP system time. Your primary duty is to play the RP
role you elected to play not to spend all your time in Battle
CLoud.
