List of Rules
     Game Rules
Users are not allowed to do the following:
- Access puppetnightmares.com if you are under 18 years of age. Login to https://www.pocketnightmares.com instead to access a SafeR For Work version of the game.
  - Own more than two accounts here. If a family member or a friend is playing here on your home network with you, please seek approval from someone at the Contact Page to play and trade together.
  
- Threaten the Administrator that they can, or will, hack the site. This is a  
    serious offense that is more likely to result in an immediate ip address AND/OR account ban.
  
- Play against themselves in any form.
 
- Purposely lose PVP games to benefit another's, or their own, account.
 
- Abuse found game bugs instead of reporting them with "Help>Report a Problem".
  
- Dual log. Notify the administrator Ignis via e-mail at the information here or a moderator such as Acrii, Saless or butz in game 
    if you share a connection with another player and need to receive protection.
  
- Buy your own items from the auction and/or trading system.
  
- Use the auction as a method of trading. Use the trade system for that.
  
- Use the auction and/or trading system as a method of storage for any accounts you have.
  
- Give away your account to other players without staff permission. This will lead to too many illegitimate transactions and possible account "donkeying".
 
- Abuse the auction and/or trading system as a method of credit, coin or any other object transferring between two accounts you have.
  
- Set up macros/bots to play the game for them. Failure to abide by this rule will lead to long term account restrictions.
  
- Set up scripts that alter how the game behaves. Using and/or distributing such scripts will result in a ban with no warning if you are discovered. 
 
- Beg other users for real money, credit  or any other in game items.
  
- Pimp your own creatures to yourself by using another account.
 
- Edit URL variables during the game. An example of this is changing the value of "game_id=" during battle.
 
- Mini-moderate. This means acting as if you are a moderator or have some authority in the game when you in fact do not.
 
- Attempt or plan to sell their account(s) to another individual without permission from Ignis. This is considered scamming, and could have your items confiscated and your account(s) banned.
 
Warning: Ignorance of these rules is no excuse for breaking them. If you break a rule, it is up 
to the administrator or moderator's discretion whether or not to ban your account, ip address, send you to Troll Prison, delete your account, or a combination of any of these.
     Chat Room Rules
  The following is a list of rules that must be adhered to in any chat room:
  - Adult content artwork, cybering and sexual roleplay are not allowed in the in-game chat. You must go to the Discord and post it in the Adult Stuff channel if you wish to share it.
 
  - Please avoid labels for yourselves or others that can be misconstrued as trying to appeal to a fetish. Examples include: Futa, Femboy, Cuntboy ect.  However, you can freely refer to yourselves this way in the Adult Stuff channel of our Discord.
 
  - Terms with strong sexual associations, even if self-descriptive, should be used only in the Adult Stuff channel of our Discord. Note that I'm allowing carvouts for sex education and vocabulary expansion when explaining such terminology to other players.
 
  - DO NOT access the Adult Stuff channel of our Discord if you are below the age of 18.
 
  - No trolling, no spamming, no flaming and no bringing up a topic just to upset people.
 
  - No links to Illegal content.
 
  - The staff here are just people and deserve the same basic human respect as anyone else.
 
  - Constructive criticism of PN is fine, but please learn the difference before addressing any of the real people that work on this website.
 
  - Only English will be responded to by the staff in the public channels.
 
  - No one's perfect, but please do your best to chill out.
 
  - No putting down others for their gender identity. Knowingly misgendering someone on purpose is a muteable offense.
 
  - In-game chat is not intended for any serious debates. You can go to our Discord and access the Politics channel if you're interested in something serious.
 
  - Do not attack anyone for talking openly about their life. Constructive advice is fine. If you don't know the difference, just be quiet and let them vent.
  
 - If a person is reasonably offended by a conversation or topic, it has to stop. If you are the offended person in question, be sure to voice it clearly instead of starting a fight. Escalating fights is just as bad as starting them.
 
  - If you want to advertise your own project here, you should contact Ignis first. Perhaps he'd even be interested in an affiliation.
 
  - Keep posted advertisements for your auctions short, infrequent and limited to the Help chats. If it starts to get annoying, you will be asked to stop.
 
  - Do not argue with a staff member when you are told to follow a rule. Instead, in game mail Ignis in private about the disagreement if you think there was an injustice done to you.
