    Default Announcement - exploiters/cheaters

    Hello while I totally approve of going after exploiters and cheaters could you direct me to where the in-game rules are please since there are some things (like re logging at the back of caves to farm boss) that opinion is very divided on so I think it would be good to have a clear cut set of don'ts.

    I've found the forum rules on the site but the actual game rules seem to have managed to hide from me (took someone digging out a ye old post as to why I couldn't make two accounts etc when I made a thread asking that question)

    Thanks

    I'd like to ask an additional question:

    Am I allowed to dual log using my brothers account (with his approval)?

    Game rules are here.

    Am I allowed to dual log using my brothers account (with his approval)?
    Simple answer, no. He shouldn't be letting you use his account and you shouldn't be asking to use it. If you say that you're brothers so where's the harm, think on that we've had situations in the past where one brother stole everything from another and then sold it on EBay. We eventually proved it via server logs and I don't know if they're speaking even to this day.

    No sharing of accounts.

    Thanks!

    Will you guys actively ban people for sharing accounts?

    No. It's just a heads up that if someone else commits a bannable offence on your account then you are the one who will suffer. Why take the risk?

    My girlfriend and I play neocron sometimes when she's at my place. I have my computer and she has her own.

    Is it a problem to you guys or should we be afraid that one of us lose his/her account ?

    Sharing an account isn't an offence in of itself. It's just foolish, like giving someone your ATM card and pin and then hoping they don't clean you out.

    We want to stress that you may think that the person borrowing your account is trustworthy but experience has shown us time and time again that this isn't always the case. Sure there will be exceptions, but the message from us to you has to be black and white: don't do it.

    I didn't express myself clearly.

    I have my account on computer 1.
    She has her own account on computer 2.

    Are we considered dual loggers even though we use different accounts/computers but the same internet connexion ?

    Sort of on subject, why did custom reticles get stopped Nid? And will they ever be re-instated? I used to love some of the ones I used end of NC1/early NC2 along with custom RPOS.

    Customising the reticle has always been a no-no - it needs to be the same for all.

    So,

    Just for clarity's sake, because I didn't see it in the rules.

    Is it *ever* OK to dual log? (And for transparency, I do *not* dual log, but I do play with my son from the same IP.)
    I ask because, from the forums, dual logging seems to be something that some players expect. So, ?

    It has been stated multiple times by staff that duel logging is fine, but registering a second account is not, you can only duel log if you have multiple accounts from back in the day basically.

    Just a no-no? So you don't actually enforce it?
