General Rules

[Soyouz 17]

Introduction

All the sanctions are pre-established with the administrators and the Gaming Masters. As impartiality is required, an individual A will be treated in the same way as an individual B. We will make sure that this rule is applied by all the GM's and moderators.

• Sanctions may also in some cases be applied to all the accounts of the person concerned. As a result, violating the rules with an alternative account may have an impact on your main account.
