Wheel of Fates: a small clarification

Written by: Clexx

Addressed to: Everyone


Although I didn't believe that this was necessary to point out before, a
number of individuals seem to be having difficulty grasping the concept.

None of your winnings from the Wheel of Fates may be transferred between
your characters, directly or indirectly. Any clear exploitations of the
wheel, including those which benefit individuals other than yourself,
will suffer appropriate consequences.

What does this mean? Well, for example: if you decide to create a large
number of new characters (or a small number which you repeatedly use for
this sole purpose), roll the wheel for prizes, and then hand them
directly off to a friend of yours, then this will be treated the same as
if your friend had created the characters himself. If someone offers you
gold from one of these characters, then I would highly suggest that you
refuse to accept it.

I'm extremely tired of seeing characters which login once a day, spin
the wheel, send a tell to their buddy 'Hey, get over here', give them a
prize, and then logout. Even worse, we've had situations where
individuals are collaborating with one another to do this in unison,
which is completely unacceptable.

As many of you are aware: we have several automated systems in place for
tracking the transfer of gold and items, and we make particularly good
use of these during events such as the Wheel. I also, personally, audit
our logs on almost a daily basis. If I notice any trend that seems
unusual, then you can expect to hear from one of our Administrators.

If you have any questions or comments (or if you would like to speak to
me about any specific situations before they come to our attention,
which I would highly suggest) then feel free to send me a message.


Penned by my hand on the 9th of Lanosian, in the year 347 MA.
