1) Multi-Accounting/Shared-Connection
Each player is allowed to play no more then a single account. *
If two or more accounts are usually, occasionally, or permanently being played from the same network the game Support must be notified in advance, in the beginning of each game world, without exception. In these cases the accounts must not have contact of following types: "5 IRON RULES"
DO NOT:
Trade any items with each other on the players' market
Send each other resources
Attack or defend together (1. players' cities, 2. Forbidden Temples, 3. fortresses)
Attack each other
Cast spells on each other
If all of these conditions are met, there is no risk for both/multiple IP sharing players at all.
If players does not inform the Support or they join the same alliance (etc..) they carry the risk of getting banned all the time. They are watched closely and if an admin decides he has sufficient evidence of any kind of cheating, all IP sharing accounts are banned.
Extent of ban for multi-accounting is allways for the rest of the game world. Admin does not have to explain his reasons to players at all, multi-account bans are not open for futher discussion.
Advice for IP-sharing players in the same alliance:
Always inform the Support in advance and be very careful about playing only your account all the time. You can never completely avoid a risk, but you can make it safe through the game.
2) Pushing/Spell spamming
It is not allowed for any account to obtain unfair profit out of a lower ranked account in a matter of resources, gems or artifacts.** This includes constant sending of resources to a higher account, or player willingly letting another player to raid or attack his/her city in the game world.
Attacking or casting spells on the same player's city repeatedly is also not allowed. These rules apply:
- The same city cannot be attacked more than 1 time in a span of 48 hours.
- Casting spells on a player's city repeatedly (spell spamming) is allowed only once in a span of 48 hours. The amount of Mana used on the spells cast on one city may not exceed the casting player's total Mana pool.
- For special game worlds like Zeus, Hades and Hecate, attacking an spell casting is without limitations.
