Being a GM (game master) is a responsible job. In part, your actions affect what the community will be like. Hence, here are some basic guidelines to help you make decisions.
General guidelines
- Use your own common sense. You are a GM because we have trust in your judgment.
Enforcing the rules
Rules and punishment for breaking them
The primary job of a GM is to keep people happy with the game by enforcing The Rules. Standard punishment for each rule varies:
1. Do not abuse other players (insults, swearing, and the like directed to a particular person or persons)
- Punishment: ...
2. No bots (and botting means ANY activity while away from keyboard)
- Punishment: Permanent ban.
3. No spamming / flooding (including trade spam)
- Punishment: ...
4. No begging
- Punishment: ...
5. Speak English on public chat
- Punishment: ...
6. Treat others the same way you would like to be treated
- Punishment: Not applicable, this rule is not enforcable.
Keeping track of who is banned, why and when
- Probably we should have some organization between GMs that allows them to know what happened, since eAthena doesn't provide this kind of meta-information. Maybe a page on the wiki? --Bjørn 14:00, 6 November 2008 (CET)
- Or maybe a sticky in the forum Court house? --Vink 14:08, 6 November 2008 (CET)
- Remember to consider which information is public and which is not. (I hardly know a thing about this myself, except that there exists protections for individual integrity, I suspect it comes down to what laws and which conventions Poland has signed since the server is located there.) ✎ Kess☽ 14:13, 6 November 2008 (CET)
Responding to banned players
Once banned, a player often comes to ask to be unbanned. ...

- @hide - Make yourself invisible to monsters and on the list of users online.
- @warp <map> <x> <y> - Warps you to map at location. Eg. @warp new_3-1 30 30
