<h1 style="float: left;">KAG Official Server Rules</h1>
<h2 style="float: right;">Last updated 01/08/2019</h2>
<hr style="clear: both;">
<p>
By playing on King Arthur's Gold official servers, you agree to obey the rules listed below and incur any penalties
given by server admins if your behaviour goes against them in any way. Official Server Admins should refer to this
document to ensure they are providing fair, informed outcomes to all in-game situations.
</p>
<p>
It is the player's responsibility to keep up to date with these rules as they may be modified without notice.
</p>
<p>
If you see a player breaking any of these rules, you can report them in-game using <code>!r (KAG username)</code> in the chat box,
or tagging an admin with <b>@Ingame Server Admin</b> in the <a href="https://discordapp.com/invite/kag">Official Discord</a>.
</p>
<p>
If you believe you have been wrongly punished, you may appeal the ban by posting in the appropriate forum thread:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://forum.thd.vg/threads/21688/">Banned from an official server</a></li>
<li><a href="https://forum.thd.vg/threads/1713/">Banned globally from all servers</a></li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
Penalties given can be classified into three categories:
</p>
<ul>
<p>
<b>Minor:</b> Minor penalties are typically the result of first offences. These include any warnings, mutes, hiding
nicknames, kicks, or short-term bans (typically a few hours).
</p>
<p>
<b>Moderate:</b> Moderate penalties result from an escalation of minor level penalties, warnings, or the nature of the
offence (for example griefing.) They typically include longer mutes or bans.
</p>
<p>
<b>Severe:</b> Severe penalties involve longer bans, typically without prior warning. A severe penalty is applied as
a result of prior offences, or simply the nature of the offence (for example, hacking).<br>
A severe penalty also includes global or permanent bans, or as the result of <a href="#evasion">punishment evasion</a>.
</p>
</ul>
<p>
Reports are dealt with at the admin's discretion. Repeat rule-breakers may incur harsher penalties than those listed under each rule.
</p>
<h2>Chat-Related Rules</h2>
<p>
<b>Spam:</b> <a name="spam"></a> Defined as any irrelevant or unsolicited message that attempts to flood the in-game chat box. Spamming includes any
repetitive phrases, words, or sentences whether by a single person or a group of people with no intent to contribute to current conversations.
Spamming is classified as a <b>minor</b> penalty.
</p>
<p>
<b>Purposeful avoidance of chat filters:</b> The use of symbols such as *, white spaces. or the intentional
misspelling of words with the intent to bypass the in-game chat filter.<br>
Similar to <a href="#spam">spam</a>, continuous avoidance of the chat filter is classified under <b>minor</b> penalties.
</p>
<p>
<b>Racism/Discrimination:</b> <a name="racism"></a> Content that is abusive or discriminatory is not permitted on official servers under any circumstances.
This includes material that is racist, derogatory, vulgar, overtly sexual or any material that promotes hatred, discrimination, or
prejudice against a religion, ethnic group, race, gender, sexual orientation, or age.<br>
Anything deemed this will be dealt with accordingly with <b>moderate</b> or <b>severe</b> penalties.
</p>
<p>
<b>Controversial subjects:</b> <a name="controversial"></a> Anything controversial or offensive will be dealt with accordingly. This includes religion,
politics, sexual activity, or historically offensive events. Controversial subjects range between <b>minor</b> and <b>moderate</b> penalties.
</p>
<p>
<b>Flaming/Harassment:</b> Any messages with the intent to discriminate, degrade or bully a player will be acted upon accordingly.
The implications of this depend on the context of the situation as deemed by the player(s) involved or an admin.
Flaming or harassment will incur <b>minor</b> to <b>moderate</b> penalties.<br>
It is advised that players ignore, using the in-game function, anyone that is harassing them and contact an admin to deal with the situation.
</p>
<p>
<b>Impersonation:</b> <a name="impersonation"></a> Impersonation of a player, admin, or member of THD for any reason will be dealt with accordingly,
either by <b>minor</b> or <b>moderate</b> penalties.
</p>
<h2>Gameplay-Related Rules</h2>
<p>
<b>Griefing:</b> <a name="griefing"></a> Actions with the intent to hinder your team, such as destroying own-team structures, blocking doors, or spamming shops are not tolerated.
The severity of the penalty depends on the extent of the grief, incurring <b>moderate</b> to <b>severe</b> penalties.
</p>
<p>
<b>Trolling:</b> Much like <a href="#griefing">griefing</a>, any actions with the deliberate intent to hinder your team, such as mass building shops,
buying excessive boulders et cetera, incurring <b>minor</b> or <b>moderate</b> penalties.
</p>
<p>
<b>Teamkilling:</b> Intentionally killing your teammates will result in <b>minor</b> or <b>moderate</b> penalties depending on the situation.
The intent of the teamkill is at the discretion of the admin.
</p>
<p>
<b>Hacking:</b> Any manipulation of the KAG application while playing online by any program to alter the game's behaviour,
including modifying working memory, is not tolerated and will be severely punished. With evidence, the player will incur <b>severe</b> penalties.
</p>
<p>
<b>Exploitation of glitches:</b> The exploitation of bugs, flaws, limitations or weaknesses within the KAG game that are judged to be game breaking,
or exploited with the intent of benefiting from these is not tolerated.<br>
You will be given <b>minor</b> ranging to <b>severe</b> penalties depending on the severity/frequency of the exploitation.<br>
If you do find a glitch, report it on <a href="https://github.com/transhumandesign/kag-base/issues">Github</a> and do not continue to abuse it in game.
</p>
<p>
<b>Attempting to crash servers:</b> Actions with the intent of crashing or slowing down an official server are strictly prohibited.

</p>
<p>
<b>Nicknames:</b>

</p>
<p>
<b>Intentional AFK or non-participation:</b> Intentionally AFKing in-game, especially in a full server, either in a team or in
spectator will lead to a <b>kick</b> via anti-AFK timeout or by an admin to free up server slots.<br>

will lead to a vote-kick or a warning. Failure to comply will lead to a <b>kick</b> in order to open server slots.
</p>
<p>
<b>Punishment evasion:</b> <a name="evasion"></a>The use of additonal accounts (alts) or through changing IP or HWID to evade punishments will lead to <b>severe</b> penalties.
