Server Rules

Crushbone is an open-signup server with a small, opinionated ruleset. We value low drama and long play sessions. Read Rules for the canonical list — this page is the annotated commentary.

The short version

1. Be decent. No slurs, no harassment, no personal attacks in /ooc, /shout, or Discord.
2. No exploits. If a bug lets you do something that feels free, report it. Abusing it is a ban.
3. No RMT. No selling in-game items, plat, or characters for real money. Ever.
4. No botting. Automated play with no human at the keyboard is a ban. Multiboxing with a human driver is fine.
5. One account per human unless pre-approved.

What MacroQuest, Zeal, and CBZ are

• MacroQuest (MQ): the broad EQ-modding framework. Capable of AFK play and gameplay advantages we don't want on Crushbone. Not allowed.
• Zeal: server-sanctioned QoL mod for TAKP clients (doesn't apply here — wrong client).
• CBZ — Crushbone Zeal: the server's own open-source client mod for RoF2. Ships curated QoL features (map, nameplates, autorun, etc.) and nothing that would be unfair. Allowed. See CBZ on GitHub (link pending first release).

If you're not sure whether a tool is allowed, ask in #help before you use it.

How enforcement works

• First offense for minor infractions: a warning from a GM, logged.
• Second offense: temporary ban (24–72 hours), logged.
• Third offense, or any single serious offense (RMT, exploits, harassment): permanent account ban.

All GM actions are logged and reviewable. If you think a call was wrong, open a ticket — calm, written appeals carry weight. Yelling in #ooc does not.

Why the rules are small

Because we wrote them for adults. Most EQ servers die of over-policing, not under-policing. We'd rather ban five people cleanly than pass fifty rules everyone has to memorize.
