Rules
Short, plain, and the same for everyone. Playing means agreeing to them.
These rules are here so that the game is fair and the people in it are decent to each other. Staff apply them in game and on the Discord. If something is not covered here, the test is simple: if you would not want it done to you, do not do it.
1. Accounts
- One person, one account. An account has one email and up to five characters; make more characters, not more accounts.
- Your account is yours alone. Do not share your password, sell, buy, trade or give away an account or a character. If you want someone to play a character of yours for a while, use a guest pass from the account settings: it is logged, limited and never hands over your password.
- Protect it. Use a password you use nowhere else, turn on two-step verification and put a PIN on your characters (see Security). An account lost through a shared password is not recovered by staff.
- You must be 13 or older to have an account.
2. Cheating and third-party software
- Play with the client we publish and nothing else. Modified clients, bots, macros, auto-clickers, auto-typers, injection and anything that plays the game for you or reads the game's memory are not allowed.
- Anything that gives you input the game did not ask for counts: a program pressing a key for you is the same as a bot. Resting a weight on a key is the same as a bot.
- If you are not sure whether something is allowed, ask staff before using it. "I did not know" is not a defence once it is in this list.
3. Bug abuse
- If you find a bug, stop and report it: on the Discord, on the Support page, or by writing to support@paradox.ps. A bug that could put accounts or money at risk goes to security@paradox.ps.
- Using a bug for gain (items, experience, access to places or things you should not have) is bug abuse, whether or not you found it yourself. Reporting a bug and then using it anyway is bug abuse.
- Gains from a bug are removed, and the account that used it is punished.
4. Real-world trading
- Do not sell or buy anything in the game for real money, other games' money or anything else outside the game: not gold, not items, not accounts, not services. The only place real money meets the game is our own store.
- Offering to do so, in any chat, counts the same as doing it.
- Advertising another server, in game or on the Discord, is not allowed. This includes names and links in your character's name, your title or your clan.
5. Behaviour and chat
- No hate: nothing racist, nothing against someone's religion, sex, sexuality, nationality or disability. No threats, and no harassment of a player who has asked you to stop.
- No scamming. Lying to another player to get their items (a fake trade, a "doubling" offer, a trust trade, a lure dressed up as help) is scamming. Gambling against other players outside the game's own systems is at your own risk and staff will not refund it.
- No spam: the same line over and over, flooding a chat, or filling the yell channel. The game's own chat filter is not a target to get around.
- No posting of anyone's private details (a real name, address, phone number, picture or account email), and no sharing of someone's private messages without their say.
- Encouraging other players to break any rule here is treated as breaking it.
6. Staff impersonation
- Do not pretend to be staff, in game, on the Discord or by email. Do not use a name, a title, a crown or an icon meant to look like a staff rank.
- Staff never ask for your password, your two-step codes or your PIN, and never ask you to hand over items "for checking". Anyone who does is not staff: screenshot it and report it.
- Real staff are listed on the About page and marked in game.
7. Punishments
Staff choose the punishment that fits the rule broken and whether it happened before. The tools are:
| Punishment | What it does |
|---|---|
| Warning | On the record, so the next time counts as a repeat. |
| Mute | No public chat for a set time. A yell mute or a global mute takes just those channels. |
| Jail | Your character is held in the jail for a set time. |
| Freeze | Your character cannot move or trade while staff look at something. |
| Ban | The account cannot sign in, for a set time or for good. |
| Computer or address ban | For serious or repeated cheating and real-world trading: the computer and the connection used are banned, not just the account. |
Every punishment is recorded with a reason and the staff member who gave it, and every one is reviewed if you appeal. Items or experience gained by breaking a rule are removed whatever else happens. Staff abusing these tools are treated more harshly than players, not less.
8. Appeals
If you think a punishment was wrong, appeal it on the Support page. If you cannot sign in, the page has a way in for locked-out players. Say which character it was and what happened; the staff member who reviews it is not the one who punished you. Appeals by Discord DM to individual staff are not taken.
9. Changes
The rules change when the game does. Changes are posted in News and on the Discord, and this page shows the date of the last change. Last changed: 13 October 2026.
