Recommendations by the staff

1. Do NOT give out your ID or password to anyone, this includes GMs. A GM will not ask for your ID or password, so use caution with this. If you share your account information, and someone takes items off of your account, do NOT ask a GM to replace your items.

2. The GM team takes no responsibility in the event an account has been hacked and the account owner has been found to share their account info. Furthermore, they will be unable to take any further action in regards to cases once this fact is brought to light. SHARE YOUR ACCOUNT INFO AT YOUR OWN RISK.

3, If you loan out items or equips, you do so at your own risk. If you loan out items to someone and they keep the items, do NOT ask a GM to get them back for you.

4. If you engage in trades that exceed the 10 item per trade limitation (e.g. Hero Quest items, Large quantities of equipment such as Valkyrie shields), you do so at your own risk. In the event you trade the items to someone else and do not receive your suggested payment for it WITHIN THE SAME TRADE, Rule 17 on the loan of items or equipments will apply. **If you wish to have a "safe trade" use @request to use one of the Staff Members as an intermediary for the trade, remember to take screenshots of the deal**
