Rule Adjustments??

Recommended Posts

Justin    78

I thought now would be a good time to take a second look at the Simplicity In-Game rules and create a place where people can voice their opinion on certain rules.

If there is a rule that you think should be added/altered/removed, please let us know below.

Please try to make an appealing case as to why your change should be implemented.
"pls remove botting rule bcos I like botting" will not cut it.

I'd like this to be a serious topic as I understand there are certain rules that people just don't see as beneficiary.
(Mostly towards the cannon rule)

 

I hope to see a solid discussion below. 😁

 

Spoiler

In-Game Rules

 

Section 1 - Botting, Bug Abuse & Bank Pin

1.0 Set a Bank-Pin!

If you do not set a bank pin and your account is compromised resulting in a loss of items or levels you will not receive compensation. *Bank pins are now mandatory*

 

1.1 Botting/Macroing

Simplicity does not allow the use of third party software to gain an unfair advantage while playing our game. This includes bots, auto clickers, or any other third party software.

 

1.2 Bug Abuse

Intentionally abusing bugs with your knowledge that causes harm to Simplicity and the community will automatically result in a ban if you continue to abuse it and don’t report it. If you find a bug instantly report it under the “Report a Bug” section on the forums. This does include using safe spots.

 

1.3 Duping

Any player that dupes items without informing the Simplicity Management Team will result in a termination of your account along with all the items duped. This infringement is a permanent ban in all circumstances and will never be looked into.

 

1.4 Glitched Items

Attempting to exchange any glitched item on the Simplicity market is against the Simplicity rules and the punishment is case-to-case.

 

1.5 No begging

You're not allowed to beg players for items. It gets very annoying for people and also spreads a negativity.

 

1.6 Advertisement

you're not allowed to advertisement your youtube channel/other media. If you upload a video about simplicity you need to post it on a thread on forums and shout out the thread instead of your youtube channel.

 

Section 2 - Threats

 

2.1 DDoS Threats

A DDoS threat will always result in a mute and if it continues then an IP mute. If a threat becomes an action then the player will be IP banned.

 

2.2 Hacking Threats

Threatening to hijack another player’s account will always result in an IP ban.

 

2.3 Real Life Threats

Sending real life threats such as a “dox”, or a violent threat that puts a player in danger is against the rules and the punishment is case-to-case.

 

2.4 Flaming

Flaming another player for any reason is against the rules and will result in a mute. Flaming can become threats if it is severe enough which could lead to a ban so please do not flame one another. Learn to use your ignore list if a fight starts to occur.

 

 

Section 3 - Scamming/Gambling

 

3.1 Item Scamming

Scamming another player for their in-game items will always result in a ban and will only be reversed if all the items are returned to the player. If you gamble items/gold you don't have, you will be punished.

Scam reports without sufficient proof may not lead to punishment, make sure you record your gambles like it says to when you do ::gamble.

 

3.2 Gambling Rules

A NEW RULE has been added to gambling to stop in-name donation vs item/cash gambles and scams. NO ONE is allowed to FP/Stake an in-name donation. First time offenders will be jailed, second time it will be a ban.

Planting in flower poker is a donator benefit. You are not allowed to have others plant for you if you do not have the status to do so. Failure to comply with the rule will result in jail time for a first offense and ban for a second.

Section 7 - Wilderness & Minigames

7.7 Luring

Luring anyone to the wilderness with the intention of killing them is against the rules and will result in punishment.

 

Section 8 - Miscellaneous

 

8.1 Leaking IPs

Leaking a player’s IP goes hand-in-hand with threats and will result in a ban. Leaking personal information is something that Simplicity takes very seriously.

 

8.2 Intolerance

Simplicity has absolutely no tolerance for racism, bigotry, sexism, or any other intolerance. These can easily create hatred and we will not have that around.

 

8.3 Server Disrespect

Advertising anything but Simplicity will result in a permanent ban.

AFK farming any boss for the purpose of rare drops and/or boss points is against the rules and may result in your boss points being reset.

 

8.11 Promocodes

It is against the rules to give out the promocodes that players get from doing ::subscribe.

 

8.12 No Dwarf Multicannon at the Lava Fire Giants, Derwen's or Porazdir's

From now on if you are seen using a dwarf multi cannon at ::lava (Lava Fire Giants) or Derwens (inside Arthur's Dream Max Zone) or Porazdirs (at ::ohall) you will be asked to take it down as there are not very many monsters there so it is unfair to other players. Failure to do so will result in jail time, you will only be asked once.

Side note - cannons may be used if the area is unpopulated.

 

8.13 Drop Parties/HnS/Giveaways

Drop partying is no longer allowed and can ONLY be hosted by staff when approved. Exception being the drop parties that come with $200+ donations that put boxes automatically into the chest. Hns or any type of giveaway has to be approved by a member of staff.

7.3, death dotting

Its just part of honorless PKing, it always has been. Its a scummy thing to do but if youre looking for an "honorable" pvp fight then there are other alternatives. Wildy is a free for all, if you want to avoid getting DD'd then you need mithril seeds. Its an inherent part of pvp and its just gonna cause (and presumably already has caused) situations where someone gets DD'd and then bitches and wants their stuff back.

Im not the biggest fan of NH tribridding but its not a rare occurrence in any hybrid/tribrid on the official OSRS, nor is it against the rules there.

Unrelated, there should be more clarification on what is and isnt against the rules when it comes to typing. Obvious ones are obvious, directed at a user in aggression is frowned upon, but theres gotta be a line somewhere that is acceptable within limits, what can and cant be said, etc.

Having someone yoink your drop party item and responding with "oh you fucker" could be considered the same as outright insulting someone, because without auditory context, a flaw with text as a whole, you cant really tell if that was of humorous intent or not.
