Rules of Conduct

ROCKtropia Forum - the forum for ROCKtropia, HELL, Secret Island and Howling Mine, created through EntropiaPlayer.com.

Welcome to the forum for ROCKtropia!
This forum exists to support all explorers, traders, hunters, sweaters, and newcomers across the Entropia Universe but with the focus on ROCKtropia, HELL, Secret Island and Howling Mine. We're here to share knowledge, have fun, and help each other. The forum is open to everyone - from the greenest of noobs to the most seasoned Entropians - but with openness comes responsibility.

Before participating, please read and respect the following Rules of Conduct:

1. Be Respectful

• Treat all members with kindness and courtesy.
• Healthy debate is encouraged - personal attacks are not.
• Critique ideas, not individuals.
• Racism, sexism, hate speech, bullying, or harassment of any kind will result in immediate action, including bans.

2. Keep the Tone Friendly

• We're a passionate community, but that doesn't mean we shout at each other.
• Humour, sass, and banter are welcome - as long as it's not cruel or exclusionary.
• Don't let discussions become personal vendettas. If things heat up, cool down or take a break.

3. Zero Tolerance for Abuse

• Any form of harassment, doxxing, threats, or targeted abuse will lead to a permanent ban.
• This includes private messages - if you're being harassed privately, report it.

4. No Discrimination

• Everyone is welcome, regardless of race, gender, nationality, religion, avatar skills, or planet of origin.
• This is a galaxy of unity - not division.

5. Keep It Constructive

• Don't post just to provoke. Trolls may feed themselves elsewhere.
• Bring value to the forum: share advice, ask questions, help others, or post your discoveries.
• If you're frustrated, try being part of the solution - or post in the Rant section.

6. Help Us Help Newcomers

• Remember what it was like to be new - guide, don't gatekeep.
• Share tools, tips, tutorials, and encouragement.
• We're here to build up, not break down.

7. Follow the Posting Guidelines

• No spam or excessive self-promotion of things outside this Universe.
• Use relevant sections - we have categories for a reason.
• Keep threads on topic and readable. Don't flood threads with nonsense.

8. Mods Are Here to Help (Not Rule You)

• Our moderators are volunteers from the community.
• If they step in, it's to maintain a safe and positive space.
• Respect their decisions - but if you have concerns, you're always welcome to message them privately.

9. Forgiveness Exists, but So Does the Ban Hammer

• We believe in second chances, when possible.
• But some behaviour (like hate speech or harassment) skips straight to the permaban.
• Just ... don't be that guy or girl.

10. This Forum Is Powered by EntropiaPlayer

• This forum is user-created and owned by www.EntropiaPlayer.com
• For any requests or questions, please contact founder and administrator of EntropiaPlayer and this forum, Lykke TheNun on this forum or in game, or write a mail to mail @ entropiaplayer.com

Final Note:
Have fun. Help others. Be excellent.

Together, we create the universe we want to log in to.
