Know Before You Play

These apply to all members, all the time. They're not complicated — just take them seriously.

Gameplay Rules

Zero Tolerance: Exploiting & Cheating

Exploiting, duping, and cheating is a zero-tolerance position. The only exception is exploits used as workarounds for game-breaking bugs. Removal is immediate — no warnings.

No Salt / No Drama

It's just as annoying to listen to as it is awkward to hear. You'll come across bad players, cheaters, very good players — handle yourself as a good sport in all situations. Whiners, easily frustrated members, and poor sportsmen will be removed.

No Griefing

Rune Guard heavily discourages griefing. Stream sniping, pad ramming, harassment of other players, and similar community-adverse behaviors will result in removal. We value our reputation as a fair-playing organization and intend to maintain it.

Piracy

Discouraged in some situations — particularly against new players. It's not explicitly against the rules, but use judgment and don't embarrass the org.

Trolling

Nothing in the rules against it, but we have a lot of mature players and you'll have a hard time fitting in doing it.

General Rules

NO POLITICS — One Warning Only

This is a gaming community. Political discussion ends with one warning and immediate action after that.

  • This is a 21+ server (18+ for friends of members)
  • No sexually explicit, pornographic, or illegal content
  • No personal attacks or harassment
  • No sexism or racism
  • No religious, political, or sexuality discussions
  • No griefing, cheating, or ruining the gameplay of other players
  • Guiding Principle: When in doubt, don't say it. We are here to play games.

Communications Discipline

Voice comms are how we operate. Treat them like a professional meeting until you're acclimated to our culture.

  • Control emotional outbursts for both wins and losses
  • Minimize background noise and open mics. Use push-to-talk (PTT) if eating, watching TV/movies, listening to music, or if others are in the room
  • Comms during combat take priority. Limit casual talk to essential information for group success
  • "BREAK BREAK" — Emergency callout to halt all communication for mission-critical info only. Respect it immediately.
  • Try very hard not to talk over others

Naming Policy

  • No org brackets [X] unless you are an official ambassador for another organization
  • Your Discord handle must match your in-game handle
  • Use () after your RSI name for phonetics or nicknames — e.g., "Michael (Mike)"
  • Rune Guard avatars are appreciated but not mandatory
  • Handles should be easy to read and pronounce for clear comms
