RULE6

6. Client Scripts, Botting, Triggers, etc:
6a.
As above, spam is illegal, but on occasion one might get stuck where their
scripts hit a bug and send a lot of commands to the game. If this occurs
immediately disconnect yourself (eg: /zap for MudMaster users) or just
close down your client or hang up the modem, then fix the problems in your
script, and then re-log in. Writing scripts/testing scripts in a crowded
public area (ie: MedLink, or the center of Medievia town) isnt advised.
6b.
Setting off peoples triggers is illegal. This means that if you say
anything or room anything that shows something such as: you are either
hungry or thirsty, you are doing something illegal and are going to get
yourself in trouble.
6c.
No triggers or other automated forms of combat. Any script that benefits you
in combat is illegal. Read Help TRIGGER
6d.
Bots (roBot) -- Making bot scripts is illegal. Bots are where a script
controls your character. Scripts to run zones, repeatedly kill mobs, or
otherwise benefit your character while you are not in immediate control of
your character are illegal. (also see 6e, 6f, and 6g)
6e.
Auto-trade or walker scripts are illegal (scripts that automatically
move you around).
6f.
Any script that controls you while you are afk, and not immediately aware
of and in control of your character are illegal. Including, but not limited
to auto-freight selling, auto-auctioning, spammy anti-void avoiders, etc.
Further, the use of any complex script to automate aspects of the game is
illegal, regardless of whether youre AFK. The only exception to this are
trade valuation scripts (ones which check prices, NOT ones that run trade
runs for you). This specifically includes scripts for guarding CPK. Spellups
are not considered complex scripts.
6g.
Allowing people to control you via telepaths, says, formtell, or any
communication channel, or via 3rd party programs, is illegal. Simple scripts
for allowing friends, clannies, form members, etc to receive minor benefits
(eg: auto-cleric scripts) are okay, as long as you are active and in
complete and immediate control of your character.
6h.
Text encryption scripts on public channels are illegal.
6i.
Purposely flooding someones ip via the various chat programs that are out
in order to disrupt their game play is highly frowned upon. Any attempt to
ruin a players game play via Medievia and/or 3rd party programs is illegal.
6j.
Gambling is illegal on Medievia, except for the HEROWAGER command and
the MEDLINK casino rooms. ANNOUNCEMENT 708 is to be considered part of
this rule. ***USING THE ROLL COMMAND FOR GAMBLING WILL GET YOU PURGED!***
Running or participating in activities that are usually managed by the
code or staff is illegal. This includes, but is not limited to, scripts
that play games or for cash or other compensation, including lotteries or
other games of chance. It also includes dueling for gold or betting on
duels.
6k.
This rule, which was a clarification of 6j, has been removed.
