Real money trading — deletion
Buying or selling Syndicate Wars currency, items, properties, crews, or accounts for real-world money (or crypto, gift cards, or off-platform favours of value) is banned. Staff hunt RMT. Sellers are deleted. Buyers risk the same.
Account trading — deletion
You build your own operative. Selling, gifting, or transferring an account is forbidden and ends in immediate termination.
Bug / exploit abuse — game ban
Using glitches, dumps, or unintended mechanics for gain is banned. Report bugs via Help / Bugs. Abuse gets you banned; good reports keep the city honest.
Multiple accounts — game ban
One person, one account. Multi-accounting to farm, launder, bail, mug-farm, or dodge heat is banned.
Account sharing — game ban
Only the creator may operate the account. Sharing logins, “sitting” an account, or hiring someone to play for you is banned.
Abetting — game ban
Knowingly helping rule-breakers — middlemanning RMT, parking illicit gains, or covering multi-accounts — is treated like the offense itself.
Automation
Tools may only use data from official Syndicate Wars interfaces you load yourself. Bots that play for you, scrape pages, flood endpoints, or bypass CAPTCHA / security checks are banned.
These apply to mail, chat, forums, profiles, crew boards, and public activity.
Discrimination
Hate speech or slurs about origin, religion, gender, sexuality, disability, or similar — banned.
Harassment
Doxxing, real-world threats, stalking with personal data, or coordinated harassment — banned.
Extreme flaming
Unfiltered abuse meant only to distress, or severe slander of other players — banned.
Obscene content
Pornographic or graphically extreme material unsuitable for a crime game’s public channels — banned.
Compromising security
Phishing, asking for passwords, recovery codes, 2FA, or payment details — banned.
Ignoring staff
Ignoring staff warnings or instructions about conduct — escalation to bans.
Impersonation
Pretending to be staff, another player, or a real-world person to deceive — banned.
Enticement
Encouraging others to break rules or evade restrictions on their account — banned.
Flooding / spamming
Duplicated, irrelevant, or illegible spam in mail, chat, forums, or events — banned.
Advertising
Promoting unrelated sites, products, or games is banned. In-game services may only be advertised by the provider in appropriate channels. Buying or selling reputation / karma is banned.
Language
Public forums and global chat are English-first so staff can moderate. Other languages in private crew spaces are fine if they do not hide rule-breaking.
Staff decide punishments. Appeals go through in-game Help tickets. Serious offenses may be reported to payment processors or authorities where required by law.
