Ethereal-Aion rules
The following rules must be known and followed by every player. No one is allowed to ignore them.
We hope that you are enjoying your stay on our server but never forget that you are subject to rules. Bypassing or breaking these will lead to punishments going up to a permanent ban from all our platforms.
1.Behaviour and fair play:
We have a strict non toxicity policy.
This means we do not tolerate any form of inappropriate/bad behavior.
This goes from the way you talk to others to the way you play.
The followings are not allowed and will be sanctioned:
-Advertising/ spamming for other private servers or anything unrelated to the server.
-Spreading rumors.
-Impersonating a staff member.
-Harassing or threatening others.
-Lying to the staff and trying to mislead them.
-Ignoring a staff member’s order on purpose or refusing to obey.
-Insulting others. If someone insults you, please do not answer back in the same way but use the block feature instead and report that person to a staff member.
-Using inappropriate names/legion emblems.
-“Trolling”.
-“Afk-ing” and/or being idle during an event.
-Excessive swearing/bad language.
-Exploiting bugs instead of reporting them.
-Kill trading/match manipulating.
We ask our players to be respectful at all times. You are allowed not to agree with someone but must keep in mind we are all human beings behind the screen.
Note: If you wish to promote the server please don’t spam or pollute public chats in retail or other private servers’ platforms, you’re actually degrading our image by doing so. Instead, stream, vote, publish good videos of it, spread the word through your friends.
2. Language:
Ethereal-Aion is a European server, meaning the language spoken in it is ENGLISH. It is not allowed to speak any other language in public chats. It is allowed to speak in any language you want in private chat rooms/channels. When contacting a staff member always use English at first, otherwise you might not get any answer.
3.Third party programs/Hacks/Cheats:
The only third-party programs allowed are dps calculators, keyboard/mouse macros, ahk and shugo console. If any player is caught using other types of third-party programs (such as cheat engines for example) their account will receive a ban immediately. Modifying game files is tolerated as long as it does not give you any advantage over other players, which we consider as hacking and sanction identically.
4.Making Reports/Support:
If you witness anything that needs to be known by the staff such as a player who didn’t follow the rules or a bug, please report it.
-Bug reports must be made in the discord’s bug report section unless you judge the bug too game breaking to be known publicly in which case please pm a GM.
-Player reports should be done by contacting a GM with proof (video or screenshot) of the rule violation.
-Reports must be done with care, politeness and seriousness if the player who makes the report wants them to be taken seriously by staff and treated in time.
-Any other type of issue that needs support should be done by sending an email to a staff member.
-Discussing or contesting a support decision repetitively may be sanctioned.
-Making useless, thoughtless or inappropriate reports/tickets will lead to sanctions.
5. Donating:
-To keep the server alive on the long run and support our work we offer to the players the possibility to donate. In counterpart they will receive a number of tolls proportional to the sum they donated as well as a "vip" access level (for donations above 30€), unlocking special features.
-Donating doesn’t give you the right to break the rules and won’t make the staff care more about you than the other players, it is a purely voluntary action.
6. On Discord:
Just like in game Discord is subject to several rules:
-Just like in any public channel in game, english only.
-Be respectful.
-Advertising for anything unrelated to our server is not allowed.
-Inappropriate names and profile pictures are not allowed.
-Make sure to be on the correct channel before writing.
-Make sure to stick to the chat room topic.
-Please watch your language, obscene sentences are not permitted.
Overall:
-Sanctions go from a simple warning to a permanent ban on all platforms. Misbehaving on one of our platforms can lead you to be banned on all of them. If someone keeps breaking the rules on multiple accounts, they may receive an IP or MAC ban, these are usually permanent.
-Please keep in mind that these rules are a guideline of conduct and deciding whether something is an infringement or not and what sanction shall be applied is at staff’s discretion.
-If you think that the punishment you received from a GM was unfair or disproportionate, please contact an Admin and provide solid arguments. Nonetheless you must be aware that the staff is carefully selected so it is rare that their decision is not supported by them.
-Once an Admin has rendered their decision, it is final and absolute unless they change their mind. Any further contesting will be sanctioned.
We reserve ourselves the right to change these rules at all times.
