Game Master Posts: 731 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | On the Atlantica Online forums we want you to feel free to express, discuss and share your ideas. To avoid confusion we ask that you review this section before you begin posting. The following rules apply to every forum unless explicitly stated otherwise. If a rule is broken by a user, or if circumstances require, a GM, CM, or Administrator may administer a warning, temporarily suspend the user's forum account, permanently suspend the user's forum account, temporarily ban the user's game account, or permanently ban the user's game account at their own discretion. We will do our very best to be fair when dealing with these unfortunate cases. We understand that even though it is the user's responsibility to know the forum rules, sometimes they may be misunderstood or misinterpreted, and that occasionally people do make mistakes. Any decision to take action against users by a GM, CM, or Administrator will have many factors taken into consideration to ensure that any form of punishment is truly warranted. Please note that the Terms of Agreement for NDoors service also apply to the forum, as it is a part of the service. 1. Be Respectful.

We have different beliefs and ideas and we need to try and be respectful of each other. · No flaming or posting to intentionally insult another user. · No racism, sexism or discriminatory comments. These will be deleted immediately. · No trolling. This means that you cannot make a post with the purpose of drawing insults or flames from other users. · Do not bypass the word filter 2.
