KXRO Rules & Regulations
by Admin Thu Jun 09, 2016 3:52 pm
The following rules are a strong reminder to all players that it is your responsibility and ours to upkeep and maintain the peace of the server. As time goes by, rules are subject to changes, alterations, modifications and updates. In which case, players will be notified by a Facebook post.
Administrative Rules:
1) Violators of the rules of Kx Ragnarok Online WILL face...
WARNING, MUTE, JAIL, SUSPENSION(ACCOUNT(S) AND/OR IP), PERMANENT BAN(ACCOUNT(S) AND/OR IP).
Note: For Suspensions & Bans, punishment will usually involve IP + ALL accounts unless stated otherwise.
2) Management will not hesitate to ban the accounts & IP Address of players who are caught advertising another Ragnarok Online server.
3) Do not spread rumours which are untrue against Kx Ragnarok Online or the GMs. Do not create false stories in an attempt to promote a negative image of the server to the general public, your accounts & IP Address will be banned without hesitation.
4) GMs reserve the right to choose whether to issue a warning or a heavier sentence depending on a first-time offense or the seriousness of the particular case being handled.
Punishments issued can/will be increased or extended if the player shows bad attitude and a complete lack of respect towards GM. In Kx Ragnarok Online we will rarely issue a permanent ban unless it is absolutely necessary to do so. Players who have an absolute disregard to the server rules, showing extreme signs of rudeness towards GM team, multiple offenders, repeated offenders and totally unwilling to cooperate, only such players will receive the PERMANENT BAN. We don't want to do it, don't make us do it.
5) All players are empowered with the right to give warnings to violators. (Video evidences are always better)
Provide a screenshot with the following:
1. Tell them atleast 3 TIMES through Private Messages AND/OR Public Chat that they are committing an offense which is punishable by Server Rules.
(Please call out the violator's name if you address him/her in public)
2. Take Screen Shots of the player continuing to commit the offense even after 3 times warning.
3. Post the screenshots in the forum's 'Report' section.
*Alert* GMs will skip Warning as the minimum punishment issued to the reported player for the specific offense commited.
General Rules:
1) Do not use Bots, hacks or any 3rd party programs(including macro softwares) and Gaming mouse/keyboards that provides an unfair advantage.
[color=#EEEEEE]For Suspected Bots:
Bot character will be warped to jail. We will check the database and contact the owner of the account. They are required to send the program to GM for BLOCKING and are also required to provide full information about it. Players who cooperate will be let off with a WARNING on the condition that they never use it again. Players who refuse to cooperate, deny allegations or give dishonest answers will be BANNED.
[color=#FF0000][Minimum: Warning/BAN]
The following reasons are not acceptable:
1. My friend/family member/girl friend/boy friend etc. played I don't know what they did.
2. Its my first time in Kx Ragnarok Online and I don't know the Rules...
3. I've seen other players bot why can't I?
4. I saw the GM and got scared so I disconnected...
5. I was busy hunting item and had no time reply...
6. The monster was hurting me and I couldn't reply...
7. I was pressing skill with my hands while my eyes were looking elsewhere, reading forum, books, etc...
8. I don't have a forum account. How am I suppose to know where to read?

Players will be warped to for questioning by a GM. They are required to send the program to GM for BLOCKING and are also required to provide full information about it. Players who cooperate will be let off with a WARNING on the condition that they never use it again. Players who refuse to cooperate, deny allegations or give dishonest answers will receive a minimum penalty of JAIL until investigations are complete. After running tests in front of the player and the GMs are still unable to achieve the results of what the suspected player managed to achieve, it would be considered that the player was using a 3rd party program and refuses to admit, penalty will be BAN.
[Minimum: Warning/BAN]
2) Do not use someone else's name with the sole intention to impersonate them.
This includes the names of any players or the GM Team, the use of "GM" or [KxRO] in a character name and guild name is also forbidden. Punishment issued will be decided by the act that was carried out by the Impersonator. GMs WILL render assistance for scam cases that were carried out by Impersonation. For attempting or carrying out an act while impersonating as a GM consequences WILL be greater.
[Minimum: Jail/Suspension/Ban]
Note: Having similar names does NOT equate to impersonation. Impersonation refers to the act of pretending to be someone else for the purpose of doing something illegal.
3) Do not spam any skills (e.g. Meteor Storm/Lord Of Vermillion/Ice Wall/ etc.) in town that will cause any form of disruption or inconvenience.
[Minimum: Warning/Mute/Jail]
4) Do not use pets / mercenary / homunculus or yourself to block any NPCs.

7) Do not attack/insult GMs.
If you are unhappy about an issue, approach us and talk to us. You may address the issue by private message, public channel or even megaphone and we will respond to you through the same medium. However, if you choose to use a megaphone please take caution on what you say and how you say it. Players are advised NOT to use megaphones for your own protection. If you are complaining consistently in public channel or megaphone for sole the purpose of creating trouble a more severe penalty awaits.
[Minimum: Warning or Mute]-[2nd time: Jail]-[3rd time: Suspension/BAN]
Example of an appropriate megaphone message that GMs will respond to:
"GM could you explain why you changed xxx. What is the motive or purpose for making this change?"
Example of an inappropriate megaphone message that GMs will NOT respond to and warrants a punishment:
"WTF noob GM why the **** did you changed xxx. Are you a ****ing moron? Change this **** for ****?"

Prior warning will be provided, if the player does not comply he/she will be muted or jailed until the end of the event. If the player was behaving inappropriately or showing bad attitude the Jail term will be extended.
[Minimum: Warning/Mute/Jail]
9) Do not threaten to physically hurt another player of KxRO or his/her loved-ones in Real Life.

We will investigate if the other party has violated any of our rules and we will exact the appropriate punishment and/or we will enact new rules to protect you in future.

If we already have proof that you bought/sold items in cash you will receive a more severe penalty. If we happened to know that you are a seasoned player, we assume that you are already aware that it is an offense to buy/sell items in cash, no warnings will be provided and immediate action will be taken.
[Minimum: Warning/Jail/Suspension/BAN]
2) Account/Item sharing is entirely at the account/item owner's risk. GMs will not take any responsibilities for such cases.If your account is compromised in any way as a result of account sharing, GMs reserve the right to refuse support.

4) Trade in KxRO Cash Points at your own risk. Players are advised to exercise caution when selling large amounts of KxRO Cash Points in one trade.
If someone wishes to buy KxRO Points from you, try to establish their In-Game identity. Do not take risks by selling to a 'New' or 'Unknown' player as he/she may ask of you to buy items in the KxRO Point shop and logout without completing the trade. For your own safety, do not trade with Novices or 1st job characters, he/she might have intentionally created that character to rip you off.

The GM team are not responsible to educate players on what type of comments contain Racism or Discrimination.
