Game Rules

Play the game, not the server.

Use the interfaces and actions the game intentionally provides. Do not forge requests, manipulate parameters, bypass cooldowns, permissions, resource costs, target restrictions or other server-enforced rules. Do not intentionally overload, probe, disrupt or interfere with the service.

Accounts must represent honest play.

Up to 3 player accounts may be associated with the same known network or browser-security identity unless an Owner approves otherwise. Do not use VPN hopping, cookie clearing, alternate browsers or other workarounds to evade that limit. Allowed alternate accounts may not be used to manufacture PvP wins, move illegitimate wealth, manipulate markets, farm bounties/challenges, evade punishment or create fake Gang activity.

You are responsible for activity performed through accounts you control. Never impersonate Staff, Admins or Owners, and never claim permissions you do not have.

No unauthorized bots, macros or automation.

Gameplay actions expected to be performed by a player must be performed by the player. Bots, macros, auto-clickers, scripted requests, browser automation, packet/request replay and unattended farming are prohibited unless a specific feature is explicitly approved by the game. Accessibility tools that do not automate gameplay outcomes are not targeted by this rule.

Keep the rivalry fictional.

Mafia-themed trash talk and competition are part of the setting, but targeted harassment, credible real-world threats, doxxing, stalking, sexual harassment, hate-based abuse, extortion, exposing private information or carrying a game dispute into someone's real life are not allowed. The same standard applies to usernames, bios, Gang names/descriptions, messages, announcements and support tickets.

Do not spam messages, tickets, invitations or other systems in a way that prevents normal use.

Protect the economy.

Use official Player Market, auction, direct-trade, Gang-bank and other supported transfer systems. Do not exploit rounding, escrow, duplicate requests, race/combat collusion or interface bugs to create or duplicate value. Real-world money, services, accounts, credentials or outside goods may not be exchanged for in-game currency/items unless the game explicitly introduces an authorized system for that purpose. Casino games, scratch-offs and the Daily Lottery use virtual in-game cash only; attempting to manipulate, replay or bypass their wagers, ticket reveals, drawings or payout rules is an economy exploit.

Trades are generally final when the server completes them correctly. Staff may reverse transactions when required to repair a confirmed bug, exploit, account compromise or moderation issue.

PvP is allowed when the game allows it.

Attacks, bounties, races, Gang wars and other hostile actions are legitimate gameplay when performed through the intended systems. Do not bypass eligibility restrictions, coordinate fake outcomes for farming, repeatedly abuse a technical defect, or use threats outside the game to influence an in-game result.

Gang competition follows the same rules.

Gang diplomacy, territory, organized jobs and wars may be competitive, but Gang leadership does not authorize harassment, exploit sharing, account sharing or economy manipulation. Gang names, announcements and internal activity remain subject to these rules. Leaders are expected to remove clearly abusive content they control when notified.

Report bugs; do not farm them.

If you discover duplication, unintended payouts, permission errors, invulnerability, cooldown bypasses, economy exploits or other defects that provide an unfair advantage, stop using the defect and report it privately. Repeating an exploit to “test” profit, hiding proceeds, teaching others how to abuse it or knowingly benefiting from exploited assets may result in removal of gains and account action.

Use Support honestly.

Logged-in players should use in-game Support Tickets. Players who cannot access an account may use Public Support. Include relevant facts and approximate times, but never send passwords or reset codes. False reports, fabricated evidence, ticket spam and abuse of support personnel are prohibited.

Protect your account.

Use a unique password, do not share credentials, and review recent login history from My Account. If you suspect unauthorized access, change your password, use Log Out Everywhere where available, and contact Support. Staff will never need your password.

Game-controlled NPCs are part of normal gameplay.

NPC-tagged street residents are automated game characters, not player or Staff accounts. Criminal NPCs may fight eligible players under the normal combat rules. Law-enforcement NPCs are noncombatants and may trigger normal Law & Heat checks for sufficiently wanted players. Do not treat NPC behavior as Staff moderation or attempt to exploit NPC rotation, combat, or encounter timing for illegitimate rewards.

Demo Realm activity stays in the Demo Realm.

Demo Player identities are temporary visitors, not registered player accounts. Do not attempt to bridge demo cash, items, XP, combat outcomes or other temporary progress into the live game, evade demo time/rate limits, automate repeated demo sessions, or use the isolated demo environment to probe or attack live systems. Demo activity may be logged for security, abuse prevention and Owner review.

Enforcement follows severity and evidence.

Possible actions include warnings, content removal, reversal of illegitimate gains, temporary restrictions, suspension or permanent ban. Serious abuse may skip lower-level penalties. Staff and Admin actions are permission-limited and important administrative changes are audit logged. Owners may act on clearly harmful conduct even when a newly discovered exploit or abuse pattern is not yet described word-for-word here.

Report problems through the proper channel.

If you believe an action was made in error, open a Support ticket and explain what you believe is incorrect. Do not harass the Staff member involved or create alternate accounts to evade a restriction. Reports are reviewed using available game, security, transaction and moderation records.
