Rules

GENERAL INFORMATION!

  1. By accessing DiamondWorld servers, websites, or Discord, you agree to comply with these rules. Ignorance of the rules does not exempt you from liability.

  2. While we strive for comprehensive rules, Staff reserves the right to address unlisted edge cases solely to maintain server integrity, security, and community safety.

  3. Staff may adjust the severity of punishments based on the context of the situation, the offender's intent, and their previous disciplinary history.

  4. Repeated rule violations will lead to escalating penalties, up to permanent ban from the network. Ultimately, we expect players to communicate respectfully and avoid acting in ways that intentionally ruin the experience for others.

1. Account & Security

    1. Punishment Evasion: Attempting to bypass an active punishment using alternative accounts will result in the penalty being applied to all associated accounts.

    2. Chargebacks: Any attempt to reverse a payment through your bank or payment processor will result in an immediate and permanent ban from the network.

    3. Refund & Restoration Policy: All purchases are final. Items and currency are not refundable due to player misunderstanding or technical issues on the player's end, unless it is a verified server-side failure.

    4. Account & Progress Transfers:
      Players may request a transfer of their game progress, statistics, and store-purchased privileges to a new account.

      Terms: This is a manual service provided by the Administration. The service fee is determined by the Administration.

      Restrictions: Transfers are not available for accounts with active bans. Once a transfer is complete, the original account will be permanently banned to prevent profile duplication.

    5. Account Security: You are solely responsible for your account. DiamondWorld is not liable for actions performed by third parties. We strongly recommend enabling 2-Factor Authentication.

    6. False Confessions: Admitting to rule violations (e.g., "I'm using cheats") – even as a "joke" – will be treated as a genuine admission and punished accordingly.

    7. Staff Conduct & Complaints: Staff members are held to high behavioral standards. If you believe a staff member acted inappropriately, you may file a formal complaint by opening a support ticket in our official Discord server. Appeals against punishments must be submitted within 15 days of the incident and must include the Punishment ID.

2. Communication StandardsNote: Private messages are exempt from minor chat offenses (spam, caps), but all serious offenses apply everywhere on the network.

    1. Spam & Flooding: Sending repetitive messages, excessive symbols, organizing chat floods or advertising in-game trades and services outside of the Trade Chat.
