Today we have made several changes to the rules. It is very important you read through the rules again to make sure you do not violate them. These new rules are effective immediately. This means that any violations of these new rules in the past do not matter (you shouldn't report them). Please also wait a week before reporting players who appear to be violating these new rules.
You can read the updated rules in full here: http://the-west.net/help.php?article=rules
In most cases the changes are examples and clarifications. However, we do have one new rule:
§4) Push duels
It is forbidden to duel players with the intended result of pushing the player with experience or money.
Examples
* It is not allowed to take your clothes and weapons off with the intent to lose a duel on purpose.
* It is not allowed to purposely let yourself be dueled in an attempt to lose money
* It is not allowed to purposely duel someone and lose in an attempt to lose money
The other changes are:
Rule 1: Addition of: "An account can only be played by one player."
Rule 1: Example: "It is forbidden to look after someone's account when they are on holiday.".
Rule 2: Addition of: "However, it is allowed to participate in the same fort battles."
Rule 3: Addition of: "We also do not allow advertisements/links to other web based games, referral systems or money making schemes. This concerns every area of the game where players can post their own text or graphics."
Rule 3: Example: "It is allowed to link to suitable Youtube videos"
Rule 3: Example: "It is allowed to link to web games operated by InnoGames GmbH, but no others"
