📜 TickMU Official Game Rules
These rules define the standards and behavior expected from all players within the TickMU community. By registering and playing on TickMU, you automatically agree to follow everything listed below.
01. Account Management
- Appropriate Naming: All character and guild titles must be clean. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy regarding sexual, racist, or any form of hateful/discriminatory language.
- Account Limits: There is no legitimate reason to operate more than 5 accounts, since you can open up to 10 chars per one account. Players discovered managing excessive accounts (10+) will face a permanent ban across all accounts and an IP-range restriction.
- Personal Responsibility: You are the sole custodian of your account. You are responsible for protecting your credentials from hackers, siblings, or untrustworthy acquaintances. By registering at TickMU, you pledge never to share your access details.
- Connection Proxies: The use of Proxies to enter the game is strictly prohibited. Detection of a proxy IP will result in the blacklisting of the entire network and all associated accounts. We allow IPs based on our server region.
- Credential Sharing: Never give your login info to other players. If you choose to share your account, the staff will not assist you with any resulting issues or losses.
- Prohibition of Transfers: The trading, selling, or gifting of accounts is not allowed. All accounts linked to the involved IP will receive temporary bans, and the accounts in question will be purged.
- RMT (Real Money Trading): Exchanging in-game assets for real-world currency is banned throughout the community. Violators will face temporary or, in severe cases, permanent account termination.
- Security Details: Ensure your email and password are secure, unique, and accessible only by you. Do not reuse passwords from other servers.
02. Staff & Administration
- Solicitation for Rank: Do not bother us to join the Staff Team, unless we're recruiting. Such inquiries will lead to a temporary suspension. Be wary of scammers pretending to be Staff members offering positions.
- Disciplinary Actions: Warnings and bans are only issued when a player has significantly crossed the line. We strive for a toxic-free environment; please help us by being respectful. You may request an appeal in the designated ticket system.
- No Special Treatment: Staff members are not here to provide personal advantages. Do not message Admins or GMs asking for items, currency, or buffs.
- Honesty Policy: Deceiving the Staff Team is a major offense. Filing fake reports for "lost" items or providing fraudulent information will result in an immediate ban.
- Impersonating Staff: Acting as a TickMU Admin or GM—on any platform—is a critical violation. We will never ask for your password or contact you through unofficial channels.
03. Illegal Software & Misconduct
- Prohibited Tools: Using any software that alters the intended game mechanics is forbidden. (Note: Hardware macros/built-in mouse software are permitted as we cannot fairly regulate them).
- Exploitation of Errors: Abusing game flaws or glitches is strictly banned. Even searching for or requesting information on how to exploit the game will result in punishment.
- Bug Penalties: Users caught profiting from game bugs will have their characters temporarily suspended.
- Mandatory Screen Verification: If a GM requests a stat screenshot, you must provide it instantly via Private Message. Any evidence of image tampering will result in severe consequences.
- Connection Manipulation: Intentionally creating "lag" to gain a combat advantage is illegal. We monitor IP locations to prevent users from faking their connection status.
- Guild War Abuse: Manipulating auto-score mechanics in guild wars is prohibited and carries a mandatory 1-week ban.
04. Fraud & Scamming
- Any individual found defrauding or attempting to deceive other community members will be exiled immediately. Ban durations are at the GM's discretion but will last a minimum of 7 days.
05. Castle Siege Regulations
- Appearance Items: Transformation rings are strictly barred from the Castle Siege area.
- Ghost Guilds: Registering "dummy" or inactive guilds to fill slots is not permitted.
- Path Blocking: You may not drop items or use skills (like Kalima Gates) to obstruct access to Switches or the Crown. Only Dark Lords are permitted to use pets while sealing.
- Active Engagement: Every participating side must remain fully active for at least the first 30 minutes of the event. Staff will monitor attendance and disqualify those who fail to participate.
- Tactical Interference: Disrupting the event will result in a disqualification for the current and subsequent Siege.
- Forfeiture: The Alliance Leader (HGM) is not permitted to surrender or quit during the battle. Doing so risks disqualification for the entire guild.
06. Duel Guidelines
- Shield Mechanics: Utilizing the Shield Skill in the duel arena is banned and carries a 1-day character suspension.
- Evasive Trolling: Constant running to avoid combat in a duel is not allowed and results in a 1-day account ban.
- Wagers: Once a bet is confirmed, it is binding. If issues persist, the Staff Team will cease supervising official duels.
07. Communication Standards
- General Conduct: Be respectful. Harassment and insults will not be tolerated. Please use the forums to report any players targeting you.
- Outside Advertising: Promoting other game servers or unrelated websites is strictly forbidden. Breaking this rule results in an immediate and permanent IP/Account ban.
- Spamming: Do not flood the /post or global chat. Sending more than 10 consecutive messages is considered spam and earns a 1-day ban.
- Staff Etiquette: Treat our team with respect. They work hard to keep the game running. Any toxicity toward the staff will result in maximum penalties.
