NOTE: As many of you may or may not know, the Admin(s) and Game Master(s) have regular alternate characters that we like to use while in-game. These characters have different in-game names and it may look like a normal character but these characters can give out warnings like a normal player does.

For example: If you were given a warning by a player because you were using vulgar words on /post and you replied in a rude manner then you will get temporary banned for it.
 
Keep in mind that if a normal gamer gives you a warning in-game is a person who actually cares for you not to get banned. They gave you a warning for a reason and once you are told not to do it then don’t do it. 
 

7.       Advertising:
 
a.      Members who advertise other gaming servers – Permanent account ban.
b.      Members who advertise MU server rankings or guide that do not affiliates’ our servers – Permanent account ban.
c.      Members who advertise non-gaming related websites – Permanent account ban.
d.      Members are prohibited to use pornographic websites or any sexual explicit websites in our server and forum. (This includes, personal stores, /post and etc.) - Permanent character ban.

NOTE: Keep in mind, that if someone invited you to another MU Private Server(s) or any gaming servers and you have acknowledged that person without reporting the incident then you will also get banned a permanently for assisting a rule breaker.

8.       Making Rumours is prohibited and will receive a permanent banned. This includes the following: 

 
a.     Telling or advising any gamers that this particular person is a GM using a normal character.
b.     Telling or advising any gamers that he or she is using speed hacks. 
c.     Any server negative comments. 
 

9.       Accessory of the Fact:

Anyone who dares to assist any rule breakers in-game and forum will also be given a permanent ban.
 
For examples:
If you give assistance to someone who is selling items for real currency and get caught or gets reported then he/she will be permanently banned without warning. Giving assistance by saying "Bro, you got reported on forum so I suggest you to move your items to a new account". If you say that to a rule breaker then you will be permanently banned. 
 
If you help a temporary banned person to prove he/she is innocent your account will be temporary banned as well. If that person is proven to be using cheats or breaking any of the rules then the person you are helping including your account(s) will be ban.
 
To ensure you don’t get involve between an Admin and a member who is suspected as a rule breaker or a known rule breaker, I suggest you to keep your comments to yourself and do not assist anyone who is temporary blocked. When you do provide assistance, you are only helping that person not to get unban. The more you help, the more Admin’s won’t believe that person you are helping and you will only risking of losing your accounts. That suspected rule breaker(s) or rule breaker(s) will need to fight his own battles without anyone’s help.
 

10.       Server Admin Staff Authority:
 
a.       The Admin’s decisions are absolute. There is no reason for you or anyone to challenge an Admin’s decision. You will be permanently ban in our servers for challenging an Admin. Once it has been decided then the suspension or ban is no longer a discussion.
b.      Members and Game Masters must respect the Admins at all times. Admins has no reasons to disrespect you as long as you don’t give the Admins the reason to disrespect you in the game or forum.
c.       Members and Game Masters must not PK or kill any Admins in-game. They are in-game to conduct investigation and testing. Bothering an Admin will result to schedule testing delays. If you want to test damage or test duel with an Admin then make sure you ask for permission.
d.       Members and Game Masters who uses any types of insults towards an Admin will receive a permanent character ban and possible permanent account ban. If you deleted that ban character and created another character using the same I.P. address and consistently bothering or insulting an Admin then you will be ban. - Character / Account and I.P. address permanent ban. 
e.      Admin's has the right to move or disconnect any members’ and Game Masters in-game. 

For example, if you are caught AFKing using skills in Lorencia Centre PVP zone for no reasons because you are level one who is wanting to show off then your character will either be moved to exile or get disconnected. Why? You are causing lag in-game towards other players. Keep in mind, we have a lot of players that don’t have the luxury to get good internet connection or have a good gaming PC.

 f.      Once an Admin closes any threads or topics and/or discussion in-game or forum, members and including Game Masters and/or Moderators can no longer reply or open up the same topic.
