Gameplay

Since each island on RAMETA is an isolated space, violations in this section relate not to actions against other players but to the exploitation of game mechanics to the detriment of the service.

6.1.1
The deliberate use of errors (bugs) in the server, plugins, mini-games, or events with the aim of gaining an advantage or bypassing game restrictions is prohibited. Severe

Exchanging resources, items, or progress between accounts owned by the same player (including alternates) is prohibited even if it is technically possible. Severe

Party (joint play on a shared island)

Most of the relationships within a Party are technically managed by the server itself (leaving, kicking, restrictions on resource movement). This section covers only what the server cannot control.

7.1
Accepting a player into a Party is the leader's responsibility. The administration does not compensate for losses caused by the actions of an accepted party member, provided those actions do not violate other provisions of the rules.
7.2
Creating a Party specifically for inflating shared progress, achievements, or event rewards between different real persons or between alternate accounts of the same player is prohibited. Severe
7.3
Everyday conflicts within a Party (personal arguments, disagreements over island construction, grievances) are to be resolved between the players themselves. The administration does not intervene in such conflicts unless they entail a violation of other provisions of the rules.
7.4
Use of the Party chat (where available) is subject to the same rules as the global chat (section 4).

Final provisions

8.1
In case of conflict between provisions of the rules, the stricter interpretation of the violation applies.
8.2
Upon detection of a critical violation (⚫) that threatens the safety of other players or the operability of the service, the administration reserves the right to apply a ban immediately, before the public review is completed.
8.3
The administration reserves the right to apply sanctions for the totality of violations. Multiple violations across different categories may be treated as a violation of a higher category.
8.4
Appeals against sanctions are filed through the project's established communication channel. Appeals submitted in public chat or in the form of insults will not be considered.
8.5
The administration reserves the right to refuse service to a player who systematically violates the rules, even if no individual violation entails a permanent ban.
