General Rules

The Imperium Realms is not only a server but a community of creative writers and role-players as well. We aim for creativity and fun within our community. However we also know that some rules must be implemented for the health and quality of our community.

We welcome folks happily into the Community!

***Do note that by playing on our server you acknowledge that you have red, understood and accepted these general rules!***

1. **We do not sell privileges! Occasional donations to pay the servers rent are not publicly disclosed. The server team will be grateful for your support, but can not give you any special treatment.**
2. **No using or abusing exploits, cheating, camping, griefing, trolling, flaming, meta-gaming or god-modding. This includes, but is not limited to:** *+camping/building around rare resources +Using scripts to gain an unfair advantage +Emoting and declaring your character to have powers that they do not possess. +Ninja-Looting.*
3. **Harassment in ALL forms is prohibited. This includes but is not limited to;** *+OOC/IC stalking +Sexual harassment +Bullying +Deliberate breach of consents +Unwanted/Consented DM's through Discord. +Using other platforms to provoke/Slander and/or Harass members.*
4. **Any past dramas within other servers are not welcomed here and will not be tolerated!**
5. **No slandering of other servers.**
6. **No Blending:** Every Role-player can get attached to their character, which is normal. However, bringing your OOC perception of some players to IC interactions and vice versa, going out of the way to ‘save’ your character, ensuring that they succeed in every situation and reach the happy end you designed in advance, can also lead to other behavior that is listed here. So in sweet and short: DO NOT MIX YOUR OOC IC OR YOUR IC OOC!
7. **No Metagaming:** OOCly as a Role-Player you are exposed to a certain amount of information your character cannot possibly know IC, but is strictly known OOC. This information can come through any plat form such as discord, watching online activity, chatting with player oocly ect.. That information must not ever be brought IC of define your IC actions. Consensual meta, like OOC setting up a friendly meeting or siege, is acceptable. However taking advantage of other characters using OOC knowledge is not.
8. **No Constant request for special treatment:** All players are equal. If you have RL issues of any kind that affect your mental health and capacities, don’t bring those IC and online and don’t use staff members as psychotherapists. RL situations doesn’t justify special treatment OOC or IC. We will be friendly and help you out, but it’s not something everyone owes you. Do not spoil the game for others.
9. **No Ignoring server concept and lore:** All Lore must be consider when creating a character, story, event or Role-playing in general. Try to learn as much as you can, all that information is posted within the discord for that purpose, weather its about race or just other groups/ Factions or clans.
10. **No Partaking in ‘sever politics’:** Many players will have played on other servers in the past and like to share their experiences. Talking about other RP server and members of the community is fine, but we will never accept trash-talking or other derogatory talk about them in our Discord.

## **Conflict**

1. **To avoid any paranoia and lack of communication while or people assuming the worst. In every situation of player conflict, players are expected to establish a normal OOC connection in an attempt to mend any misunderstanding, listen to each-other and reach a mutually solution. If one or both sides fail to do so a member of staff will try to contact both parties and see to it that the dispute is solved between parties.**
2. **All ruling made by admins or mods are final and are not up for discussion. All other members of staff will be informed of rulings are being made.**

## **Staff Requests**

1. **If you have evidence of players violating server rules and community guidelines. Make sure to contact admins immediately and send it to them. If you no evidence except for vague acceptation or concerns, admins may start an investigation bet please understand that without much detail we as staff have little to work off of. Staff also cannot address issues when we are not aware of them.**
