Rules and Standards
This page states the official rules of Apple Story. Some standards we have set for our staff are also listed here. Staff member or not, please feel free to review this page any time!
Basic Rules
XAT Chat
- Refrain from bothering the staff. The owners are usually busy, especially Angelina. Jenny's not since she sucks.
- Refrain from swearing too much.
- No harassment of any kind will be tolerated. The first two offenses will result in kicks, the third will be a ban (should the offenses be severe enough).
- Don't beg for the staff to check on things. Whether it be a Staff Application or a Registration, please just PM a staff member and be patient.
- No advertisement. Any of this will result in an immediate ban.
- If you are new, please check out the pages for information that may already answer any questions you may have.
- Don't be a prick. Learn your manners.
- If you are a non-English speaker, we apologize for any inconvenience. The staff will try their best to help you with any questions you may have.
- Try not to spam.
- If you were banned, don't bother a staff member through a private message.
- Please don't bother staff about your Donation Rewards. The staff most likely have no idea about your Donation at all, so please ask one of the owners instead.
In-Game
- Please be respectful towards your peers.
- Hacking of any kind will not be tolerated. Should you be seen with any sort of unauthorized .wz edit or bot, you will be immediately banned and you will not be unbanned.
- Do not purposely try to disconnect others in-game. You will be warned and promptly jailed, should the behavior persist.
- Do not advertise at all. This will result in immediate action. Depending on the severity of the offense, you will be warned, jailed, banned, or all, in respective order.
- Do not spam. This applies whether you're using smegas or just spamming through chat. If you're merching or recruiting, no more than 5 times in one minute. Be reasonable.
- Please be respectful to the staff. If you have a complaint or you'd like to report a staff for whatever reason, there is the Feedback page on this site.
- If you are a donor, do not distribute your donor client. If you do so, you will be immediately banned with no questions asked.
- Do not scam. If you are found to be or have been scamming at any time during your experience here at AppleStory, your account will be wiped and you will be banned. You may post an appeal to be unbanned, but severe offenders will be permanently banned.
- Remember to have fun and don't forget to vote~ (:
Staff
- Before banning or jailing a player, always remember to take screenshots for evidence.
- Do not spawn multiple mobs at a time, unless it is completely necessary (during JQ events, etc.). Otherwise, use your common sense. It is okay to spawn 5 snails at once; it is not okay to spawn 5 Zakum bosses at once.
- Do not warp other staff members unless you have their prior consent. Only warp players if it is absolutely necessary.
- Be respectful to the community and the staff members of higher rank than you.
- Be aware of the basic information (rates, donation rewards, voting, etc.).
- Try to check back with the XAT Chat and Updates whenever you can.
- DO NOT distribute your Staff Client. If you do, you will be demoted and banned immediately with no questions asked.
- Just because you have more power than the other players does not mean that you are superior to them. Treat them with respect.
- Do not abuse your power in any way. Weekly meetings will be held in-game for further evaluation, should we feel you need it.
- Don't be ignorant.
- Be as active as possible. If you are going to be inactive for a certain time, let one of the owners know why and how long. Being inactive can and will lead to a demotion, as we should always consider new staff members.
- Unless you are either me or Angelina, you may never use the command !setgmlevel, whatever the situation. If you do, you can expect an immediate demotion and ban, as well as a kick in the face.
- Be nice to your fellow staff members! A good team of staff is the foundation of a good server.
- Staff level 3 and under are prohibited from the use of the MSI command.
