Rules

One rulebook for the game, the website, the forum and Discord. Every rule has its own link, so you can point to it in a chat.

These rules apply everywhere 4Global is: in the game, on the website, on the forum and on our Discord. By creating an account or logging in, you agree to them. Not knowing a rule is not an excuse. We may update the rules at any time; a change only applies to what happens after it is published.

  • Never share your password or sign-in codeStaff will never ask for them.
  • No cheats, bots or real-money tradingThese end in permanent bans.
  • Found a bug? Report itUsing it instead of reporting it is punished.

Section 1: General

1.1

Play fair, not by loopholes

No list of rules covers every situation. We judge by intent: hunting for loopholes or bending a rule on purpose counts as breaking it. Trying to break a rule, or pushing someone else to do it, is treated the same as doing it.

1.2

Staff decisions

Game Masters decide cases these rules do not spell out. Follow a staff instruction right away, even if you disagree. You can complain about it afterwards through a support ticket.

1.3

Your record follows you

Penalties belong to the player, not to a single character. What you do on a second account counts towards your main account, and repeated offences in any category lead to longer bans, up to a permanent PC ban.

1.4

Everyone is equal

Supporting the server with purchases gives no protection from these rules and no special treatment. Asking for one is not allowed.

Section 2: Chat and community

Chat bans are counted together for rules 2.1 to 2.3. Your chat record resets after 90 days without a new chat ban.

2.1

Respect other players

Insults, threats, hate speech, racism, sexism and harassment of a player or group are forbidden in every chat, on the forum and on Discord.

  3. 3rd offence7 daysChat ban
  4. 4th offence14 daysChat ban

Spam and flooding

Do not repeat the same message, write only in capital letters, beg for items or fill the global chat with nonsense.

Penalties are counted together with rule 2.1.

2.3

Use channels for their purpose

The trade channel is for buying and selling only. Keep arguments, politics and general talk out of it.

Penalties are counted together with rule 2.1.

2.4

Character and guild names

Names and guild tags must not be sexual, hateful, political, religious insults or advertisements. Staff can rename an unsuitable character or guild without warning.

Section 3: Account security

Staff will never ask for your password or your sign-in code — not in the game, not on Discord, not by email. Anyone who asks is trying to steal your account.

3.1

Your email is the key to your account

You log in to the game and the site with your email address, and every site login needs a code sent to that address. Keep your email account safe: whoever controls it controls your 4Global account.

Sharing an account

If you let someone else use your account, it is at your own risk. You stay responsible for everything done on it, and we do not restore items lost through sharing.
