Game Rules

If you are unsure if something is not allowed, don't hesitate to ask a mod/admin either in-game or on discord.

  1. User scripts are only allowed when they solely make visual changes.

    Idlescape is not affiliated with any userscript, and use of 3rd party scripts is at your own risk

    1.1. Any form of automation or botting is not allowed.

    1.2. Creation, distribution or conversation on bots or automation devices are not allowed.

    1.3. User scripts are under no circumstances allowed to make calls to the server.

    1.4. The only allowed way to create actions in the game is through the built-in buttons and inputs.

  2. Only one account per player is allowed

    *You can have as many characters as a you have unlocked. Having more than two characters needs the purchase of Idlescape Plus or Character Tokens. Currently only one regular character can be active at the same time, the rest of active characters have to be outside of the regular league.

    2.1. Having multiple accounts is not allowed - Alts are not allowed.

    2.2. Players must not share, transfer or lend their account to anyone else.

    2.3. No boosting. Do not give excessive gifts to another player, giving them an unfair advantage over others. Small gifts between friends or to help new players are fine. This also includes gifting free dungeon runs.

    2.4. Don't impersonate others

  3. Trading any items, services or other things from outside of Idlescape for items, services or other things inside of Idlescape is against the rules. Breaking this rule will result in a tradeban for both players and any gained advantage to be taken away.

  4. Spamming multiple listings of the same item on market. For example: putting several items at or around the same price in low quantities, would be considered spamming

  5. Only use the @mods tag for emergencies such as spamming, racism, things being broken etc. Unnecessary use will result in a mute. Use the feedback button or create a discord ticket if you need to get in touch with mods.

  6. Dungeon key refunds will only be permitted if a player disconnects (due to a server disconnect or unstable internet) and leaves the party, causing the party to fail the dungeon.

    Completion of a dungeon despite a disconnect will not result in a key refund. Intentionally forcing a disconnect to obtain a key refund is not allowed. Abuse of the key refund system will be punished.

    Disconnecting while solo'ing a dungeon does not cause you to fail the dungeon. Upon page refresh you should still be in the dungeon. If you aren't, you were defeated.

  7. All chat rules also apply to player names, item names, and chatroom names.
