The rules for Graalonline were last updated Januray 01, 2003(it says at the end). I've been playing graal classic for 4.5 years and I never encountered them. Perhaps this is my fault for missing some small print somewhere, or not looking hard enough but I think that if the rules are still relevant, they should be able to be accessed more easily such as the URL being posted in the help section in game, and if they are not relevant they should be updated. Just my thoughts.

These rules are for Playerworld (the PC servers). It has never been established whether or not they apply to servers accessible via iOS, and there has never been any indication whatsoever from the staff that this is true. Furthermore I doubt most of the GPs know of their existence, much less actively follow them. The fact is that they are not advertised on iOS servers, they are not part of any terms of service that must be agreed to, and players never encounter them unless they are digging in areas unrelated to the servers they are actually playing on.

And now we are back to the beginning

Please read these policies carefully so you understand the rules under which you can play GraalOnline and interact with the other players.

I don't see it stating it is just for PC, it clearly says GraalOnline referring to any servers associated with the Graal part of Eurocentre, it is a general rules of conduct for all servers.

I'm just stating them for the people reading this thread and I agree with you on how they aren't advertised but really the rules are common sense.

Game is 9+ use your brains

superaweseomeminecrafterguy

DONT SPAWN HIM  

It means XXX would have a players name as in kill_SARDON, which can be seen as a form of harassment or bullying.

Again, it states the staff at hand have the right in judging whether or not it is actually offensive and needs to be dealt with.

Yes I can read or I wouldn't have been able to respond to your post. The question, though, is that if these rules are archaic and unknown to both staff and players, what weight do they really hold? Given that each of the iOS servers have independent GP/PR teams that handle bans in unique ways, it seems unlikely that each of the servers are pulling from the same body of rules. At best, these servers tend to be operating on a common-sense kind of mentality, which brings us back to the OP: it would be nice to have some legitimate rules to follow.  

We've got some rules, super bump this thread until everyone who reads the forums knows they exist? Maybe a start.

Wait, why would adolf hurler be offensive? If so then you have to say George bush is offensive, and all other political references.

There is a guild named "thanks Obama". This is offensive. It's offensive to republicans because they believe that Obama is worst president. Unless the guild is mocking Obama by saying "thanks Obama". Then this is offensive to democrats.

Do you see my point? These rules are confusing and vague.  

I don't view adolf's last name as offensive (it is censored in classic unless they changed it) the same way as I don't view someone having solely their middle finger extended as offensive. However, a lot of people do and majority rules, so yeah.

Why hitler is sensored and is concidered an offensive name?

its because aldolf hitler was worse than bush and started a world war.
its not about the politics its really about what this person did ....have you ever seen those concentration camps or heard those sad stories of the dozens killed in the war?
people concider him anti christ and his last name is illegal to use and jewish communities are more offended

although their are nazis out there and people who agree with the nazi mindset which does make it wrong to sensor it due to our pathetic accepting society

WHen it all comes down to it… HItler had innocent people killed and so did Bush. So if the word Hitler is blocked because of all of the innocent people he had killed, then so should a lot more politicians is all I'm saying.

No, do you know how to read?  

Everyones actions contribute to the death of others, even if it isn't for a long time into the future. Butterfly effect. Not many people think that way though.
