Alter Aeon Rules of Conduct
Rules Section 2 - Multiplaying
Rule 2.1 - Thou shalt not multiplay. Ever.
Multiplaying in any form is not allowed. Due to the way the game is set
up, multiplaying is a far more severe balance problem than on most other
muds.
THE ONLY TIME YOU MAY HAVE A MULTI LOGGED IN IS TO SWAP EQUIPMENT.
When swapping equipment, log in your multi, make your trades, and log
your multi off. Do not drop link, do not leave it idle, and don't
use it to cast spells on your other characters.
Type 'recall' and 'quit' on your multi when you are finished.
Rule 2.2 - You may swap equipment to a mule or alt.
The only exception to the multiplaying rule is to allow characters within
an account to swap equipment.
Remember: The only time you may have a multi logged in is to swap equipment.
When swapping equipment, log in your multi, make your trades, and log
your multi off. Type 'recall' and 'quit' when you are finished.
Do not drop link on your multi when you are done.
Do not leave it idle when you are done.
Type 'recall' and 'quit' on your multi when you are finished.
Rule 2.3 - All characters in an account are multis.
You're the only one who should be using your account. Two people may
not play from the same account at the same time.
If two characters are logged in on a given account, those characters
are multiplaying. It doesn't matter if it's two different people.
Rule 2.4 - Idling multis are still considered multis.
Even if your other character is idle, it is still multiplaying.
Do not use a multi to chat.
Do not use a multi to auction things, even if it's to your other character.
THE ONLY TIME YOU MAY HAVE A MULTI LOGGED IN IS TO SWAP EQUIPMENT.
Rule 2.5 - Linkdead multis are still considered multis.
It is not acceptable to leave linkdead characters hanging around.
Type 'recall' and 'quit' on your multi when you are finished.
Do not just disconnect.
THE ONLY TIME YOU MAY HAVE A MULTI LOGGED IN IS TO SWAP EQUIPMENT.
Rule 2.6 - You may not summon a multi to allow it to get a waypoint.
If you need to get to a waypoint, walk there or ask someone else to take
you there.
THE ONLY TIME YOU MAY HAVE A MULTI LOGGED IN IS TO SWAP EQUIPMENT.
Rule 2.7 - You may not cast spells on or pk with a multi.
This includes healing spells and resurrect.

Rule 2.8 - Properly constructed lottery bots may be eligible for an exception.
Well-constructed bots used for hosting player sponsored lotteries may
have a limited exception to the multiplaying rules.
See the 'botting' section on lotto bots for details.
Rule 2.9 - Seriously. Don't multiplay.
A good rule of thumb is 'one real person per logged in character per
account'.
Any more and you're setting yourself up for trouble.
If you are multiplaying to gain exp, all of your multiplayed characters will
be stripped of experience and possibly any stats you may have gained. You
may also have characters deleted, starting with the most powerful.
