These rules are in addition to the rules of the particular game you are playing. Look below for additional rules.
GENERAL RULES
NO DUPES: We occasionally allow connections from the same IP for exceptional circumstances, such as military facilities, and home networks, however these may be subject to voice verification. Please don't ruin it for others.
NO BLATANT SWEARING: Some light words are okay, just don't get excessive. We'd like to provide and keep a family atmosphere. This does not apply to elite or advanced games though, so let the player beware.
NO RACIAL SLURS
NO BLOCKADING STARDOCK OR CLASS 0 PORTS: Denying players access to Stardock or Class 0 ports is not permitted. Destroying these ports is considered the same as blockading and not permitted.
NO SHIP BUYOUT'S are permitted.
NO PLANET BUYOUT'S are permitted.
NO ADVANCED SCRIPTS: Some games may allow these but they will be posted at those games. In general, as someone else put it, if you have to question it, it's probably not allowed.
RULES OR SETTINGS IN ANY GIVEN GAME, except racial slurs and swearing, can be modified by player unanimous consent.
A RULE VIOLATION COMPLAINT PROCEDURE IS AS FOLLOWS: Your choice of : Email or Personal Message to the Board Administrator or Sysop or posting in the Ultimate TW Forum. Any attempts to resolve your complaint outside of our complaint procedure without first giving the Sysop reasonable time to fix the problem is a rules violation.
All truce violation complaints must contain the following: The name of the offending party, the name of the offended party, what the truce violation was, where and when it happend and some documentary supporting evidence such as a screen cap or game log etc. If you can't supply this information we may still believe you but will be hard pressed to take corrective action abscent some tangible corrobotive evidence as outlined above.
THIS IS A PRIVATE SERVER. MEMBERSHIP AND ACCESS IS AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF THE SYSOP!
TRUCE RULES:
TRUCE FOR 3 DAYS in all games, unless otherwise noted in the game. For those
players who can't count on their fingers or toes, this means hostilities don't begin until the "V" says Day 4.
NO COMBAT against other PLAYERS is permitted. Alien combat is permitted. Trapping another player with a ship interdictor is considered combat and not permitted. For those of you who are TRUCE IMPAIRED, capping and podding is also considered combat. Invading another players planet is considered combat. Alien planets, once acquired, and in a home sector, are truce protected.
SINGLE TOLL OR DEFENSIVE FIGS are permitted and may be placed in space lanes during the truce period but NOT accompanied by Armid Mines.
LIMPET MINES are permitted.
FORTIFYING YOUR FRONT SECTOR with all available resources is permitted.
RULE CONFLICTS: If there is a conflict in any of these rules, the SPIRIT of the rule shall prevail over the WRITTEN rule. The Sysop is the final arbiter of the spirit or interpretation of any rule. If any of these are broken, corrective action may be taken. The penalty will be commensurate with the offense. If you persist, then you may be banned from playing here.
PLAYER SUGGESTIONS regarding game rules are encouraged. Feel free to post any thoughts in the Ultimate TW Forum.
