GameMaster's Rules!
2. Donation items are for donators only,
NOT GMs. If you would like donation gear, then donate. You will be
warned once before deletion of your character and then removal of your
GM permissions.
3. Running players through raids/instances is strictly
prohibited, please note: if this happens, all players in that raid
will have their characters banned as they should also know it is
against the rules, and the GM involved will be punished.
4. GMs must not abuse their powers or use their positions to manipulate
or be over-assertive towards players. Our players are just as
important as our GMs, and so they will be treated professionally and
with respect. They must also be under no delusion that their rights
exceed those of our members.
5. All GMs must show respect
to the players, as they show respect to you. When answering tickets you
should be polite/kind and helpful, use good spelling and grammar, and
trying to answer each question to the best of your ability even when
someone is not being cooperative. Doing so will get you noticed and
increase your reputation and the respect you earn amongst your players,
eventually leading to promotion.
6. You must have your GM tags activated at all times when ingame.
7. You can only have one GM
character. NO alts on the GM account whatsoever. You may have a non-GM
account, but you may not use your GM account to grant your alt account
any advantages or privileges that other players would not be able to
recieve. For example, no remote reviving when you die, no summoning to
destinations, etc.
8. Do NOT question these rules, and do not question Admins or Management's decisions.
9. In the event that you think the rules are wrong, or unfair, please refer back to rule number 8.
10. As a GM, you must show discretion and remain humble. This means
no boasting, showing off, acting cocky or acting differently merely
because you have been entrusted with a managerial role within our
community. This also means being invisible in the malls.
11. Being a GM is a big responsibility, NOT a "status" mark. You need
to work hard and use your position to benefit the community. It is not a
"bonus", or a way to get "free powers" or "free things" - do not think
this way, or you will, again, be subject to punishment.
12. GM's or any other ranked staff member(s) are NOT permitted to play
any other WoW private server. No questions asked, no excuses given.
Your account will be removed, and you will NOT be pending an
investigation if we believe you're breaking this rule.Naming Policy
