Online Policy
Acceptable Use Policy
  1. The use of profanity is not permitted.  Any use of profanity or profane abuse will result in a warning to the player, followed by a suspension of  the player's character if it continues.   Note, "profanity" includes words and phrases generally considered offensive and is not limited  to specific words of profanity. It includes profanity disguised by the use of numbers or symbols, e.g. H*llo. Profanity could also include profane abuse involving out-of-character racial or ethnic slurs or language that is out-of-character hurtful or participates in hate propaganda or offensive stereotyping. Severe offenders could be suspended without warning.
  2. Harassment of other players will not be tolerated. This can be sexual harassment (lewd comments), abuse of emotion commands, targeting other players in message boards or in game for the purpose of harassment, etc. If asked by anyone to stop harassing another player, please do so immediately. Failure to stop the behavior will result in the suspension of your character. What constitutes "harassment" is widely varied and comes from the state-of-mind of the person on the receiving end. Remember that in cases where players seem excessively sensitive, Cosrin Staff will determine whether the average person would feel "harassed" and take appropriate action. If you feel you are being harassed, never ever respond in any form (shouts, chats, emotes, tells, etc), but rather contact a Cosrin Staff member.
  3. Cosrin allows multiple characters to be created for a given screen name.  We encourage players to explore the different character types available in Cosrin using this mechanism. Note, however, transferring items or gold between characters is not allowed and that you may not run more than one character in the game at the same time. If you do either, your characters will be altered to rectify the abuse and a penalty will be imposed. Running two characters in-game simultaneously will always result in a suspension of both characters.
  4. Cosrin is a land filled with quests and mysteries. The major enjoyment in Cosrin is the discovery of new areas and the solving of quests.  Thus we ask that players not give out answers to quests or brainteasers. Clues and hints are fine, but supplying answers is prohibited. Persons revealing quest solutions will be heavily penalized. (See HELP QUESTING)
  5. Disruptive behavior that may affect others enjoyment of Cosrin will not be tolerated.  Disruptive behavior may include, but is not limited to, scrolling in shouts, chats, says, tells, wails, emotes, wishes and includes out-of-character shouts over the regular shout channel. Disruptive behavior might also include but not be limited to roleplay that is antisocial rather than appropriately and enjoyably "dark" in a fantasy environment. Such behavior may result in your character[s] loss of privilege to do so for a time, and if continued may cause suspension.
  6. Roleplay point "trading" is not permitted.  1) Solicitation for roleplay points from other players, and/or 2) agreeing to trade, and/or 3) trading will result in a penalty adjustment to your character[s]. Continued abuse may result in suspension.  For appropriate use of roleplay points, see HELP ROLEPLAY within the game.
  7. Overt sexual actions are not permitted in Cosrin. No areas of Cosrin may be considered private. Cosrin caters to players of all ages, and behavior should be appropriate for everyone in the game. The person who walks into your room could be a young child. Any such actions are liable to result in the permanent suspension of your character. THIS INCLUDES ROLEPLAYING CHILDBIRTH WITHIN THE GAME. There is no provision within Cosrin for characters below the age of 18, nor will there be. All characters enter the world on their 18th birthday.
  8. The use of any automated means whatsoever to control your character is prohibited. The use of any script or macro that is not provided for in the standard form of the official OGC game clients or engine is not allowed. This includes circumventing any restrictions on the use of macros and other features which come with the standard form of the official OGC game clients or engine. Those caught violating this rule will be penalised with the loss of that character.
  9. If groups of players collide while trying to hunt, quest, or socialize in an area, it would be wise for the players to solve the difficulty themselves. If Cosrin Staff is called in because no compromise can be reached among players, Cosrin Staff will review the situation, then mandate a compromise that is binding on all parties. Failure to follow the mandated compromise might be considered disruptive behavior.
  10. Impersonating another player or Cosrin Staff member is not tolerated.
  11. Threatening or attempting to convince another player that a Cosrin Staff member will retaliate or show favoritism on your behalf is not tolerated.
  12. Cosrin Staff have the right to impose other rules not specifically stated here. Please obey the Cosrin Staff if you are asked to cease certain actions.
  13. Cosrin requires its players to adhere to ALL conditions and terms of service put forth in both the game and message boards.
  14. If at any time you have a question regarding Cosrin policy or wish to report a policy violation, use the " WISH <message>" command in the game or send an email to admin@legendsofcosrin.com.
