General Game Rules

1. Don't grief. Griefing is excessively harming your fellow players or the station. Being a jerk is okay; ruining someone's entire round isn't. (Confirmed antagonists are exempt from this rule both ways.)
   • You should not harm anybody in the Arrivals area, even if you are an antagonist.
2. No metagaming. Metagaming is many things, further explained on the Metagaming page. Basically:
   • Meta-communicating: You cannot chat or share information about the current round outside of the game with other players.
   • Meta-grudging: If someone attacked you in a prior round, you can't use that as a reason to attack them in a later round.
   • Multi-keying: If you've joined a round with one account, do not join it with any others.
3. Using a modified client: You may not modify your BYOND or dreamseeker client in any way.
4. No racism, bigotry, sexual content, or slurs. This includes your character name, BYOND key, flavor text, in-game speech, etc. If you're told something breaks this rule, that is not an invitation for debate. Calling someone a dick is okay; talking about yours isn't.
   • This also means no references or jokes about "rape", the n-word, and so on. There is no reason to ever use those words here.
5. Don't outright give secrets away. This mainly means secret chems.
6. Listen to the admins. If an admin PMs you with a question you need to respond quickly by clicking the admin's name or pressing F1. Admins have the final say in rule-related matters.
7. This is not an exhaustive list. Rules-lawyering is strongly discouraged. "But it wasn't in the rules!" isn't an excuse to be awful.

If you are unsure about a specific situation you are always allowed to use adminhelp (F1) in-game and ask.

If you believe you have been treated unfairly or a rule was incorrectly applied you may post in the Admin Complaints forum. We take all complaints seriously. You will not be punished for posting a complaint.
