General Information:
The Wartale Rulebook is not made to criticize anyone, but to avoid that, we Moderators and Administrators spend all our time on keeping the game and forum tidy.
The Wartale Rulebook is interpreted and enforced by Moderators and Administrators (the 'Staff'). Please note that only the English version of The Wartale Rulebook is used by the Staff, and is the most updated.
The Wartale Staff is dedicating a lot of their spare-time on the operation of the site and game. Therefore, always respect the requests of the Staff. Disagreeing with Staff members is allowed, but do so in a neat and proper tone - this way will get your opinion the furthest Should you feel offended by a Staff member, then write a personal message (PM) to an Administrator or Moderator to clarify the situation. Direct or personal criticism of an Administrator or Moderator might lead to punishment.
A warning should not be taken as an ultimate punishment but as a reminder to conform to the rules.
Most rules here are based on common sense alone. By following the rules below and using common sense, you will have an enjoyable visit on the forum and in-game and you will make others' visits enjoyable as well!

It is up to users to prove their right to a spawn, it is assumed to be no one's until proven otherwise. If a user(s) cannot prove the spawn was free of other user(s) before fighting in a spawn, their portion of the case is dismissed. If both the offending and defending parties cannot prove this, the entire case is dismissed. If a user is not responding for 15 minutes or greater, they are considered not to be present and the spawn is thus free of their claim to it [their character alone does not make them present in a spawn]. Additionally, 1 person cannot claim the whole main HS in hunting maps, the spawn will become available to other people after 15 minutes. Proving this is entirely up to the user, and intervals of less than 15 minutes of no response will not be considered and in this situation they can be reported for kill stealing themselves with an ensuing punishment. Should a user become present again by response or action who was previously not, they are considered the kill stealer if they were proven not to be considered present for at least 15 minutes and will be given appropriate punishment.

Accomplice
If you know an offending (violating) user and you do not report that offending user to the Staff, you may face similar or the same consequences as the offending user. If you are part of a group of offending users, then no matter if you are contributing to the offense in a lesser extent than another offending user, you may face similar or the same consequences as the other offending user. If a Staff member requests you to cooperate, by sharing information or otherwise, and you intentionally hide information that could help Staff with catching an offending user, you may face similar or the same consequences as the offending user. You can contact Staff through the Forum, you can ask for your report to be handled anonymously.
