Server Rules

[Former-GM-Altheridos]

2007/12/10 Im adding the rule *AFK Hunting/Leveling will be considered as botting. Same rule will apply for the upcoming Homunculus.*

[GM-Pandora]

2008/01/01 Updated rules list. Thanks to GM-Auron and the rest of the GM team for helping organize the new rules.

[GM-Aki]

2008/01/15 Removed the # in the character allowed to name your sprite since it causes problems in game play.

2008/02/07 New rule has been added.

"Do Not Spoil Custom Quests in Public
Details/Locations on any heRO custom additions or quests are not to be mentioned using @main or public forums. However, players are allowed to ask questions regarding these heRO custom quests in public, but answers must be given through other chats, PMs or in private forums."

Please just take the good habit of not spoiling anyone. If you want to answer the person asking on main but are too lazy to type their name you can always say "pm me i'll tell you".

This rule is effective as of now, however we will only give warning for the remainder of the month of February.

Added Hylozoist card's transformation effect to the DB rule:

"Transformed monsters by Hylozoist card effect also obeys the DB/BB rule. Please do not use Hylozoist card within a town. Take care of your transformed monsters, or cry for help immediately on @main if the transformed monster is too strong for you to handle alone."

Minor amendment to the vending rule. New parts are bolded.

[*]Sidewalk Vending and Chat in Prontera
Do no set vending shops or Chat rooms in the middle of the street in Prontera, put them on the sidewalk instead. Only one vender can occupy one cell.

2008/03/04

Added links to heRO Ticket Support System as the new standard method to report to GMs.

This "new" rule should be implied and already in practice, but we will put it into writing for clarification.

[*]Do Not Tolerate/Assist in Rule-breaking Activities
Inaction to cover up a rule-breaking act committed by someone else, such as not reporting a bot due to being in the same guild/friends, not reporting fully banned member returning to heRO, can also count as an offense. You should report on rule breakers as soon as possible.

March is the month of rule revision or something...

2008/03/06

A revision to put good manner into official practice.


Do Not Loot Steal
Do not steal the loots of other people, be it from monsters or when a player is unloading pets. heRO Server already supply @autoloot as an automatically activated command. However, players should always avoid dropping items on the floor or unloading pets in crowded areas to reduce misunderstanding.

2008/03/11 Added rules regarding Homunculus.

The heRO AI is sure to comply with our specific rules regarding homunculus, using it is recommended.
http://www.pandoraonline.net/AI.zip
Players are also free to use their own written ai, as long as they follow server rules.

- No killstealing!
The homunculus is bound by the same rules as its owner, and must not attack a monster that belongs to another player.
- No auto-alchemist skills.
The AI is meant to control the homunculus only, you are not allowed to use it to control your alchemist/creator character.
- No AFK leveling.
Afk leveling will be considered the same as botting, if you must go away from keyboard do so in a monsterless map or send your homunculus to sleep.
