Prehistoria’s Experience Rules
Prehistoria is meant to be a fairly simple game that is welcoming to users of many playstyles.
KOS and Combat
Players are allowed to KOS and target others in combat. They are allowed to target you consistently.
However, players are not allowed to:
- Server hop to target a user. You can target whoever you like if you happen to be in the same server as them, but do not seek them out across multiple servers.
Do not join different servers in search of someone you want to target
If you are targeting someone and they leave your server, do not try to follow- Perform large server-hopping raids. Raiding a single server is fine as long as you stay there, but you are not allowed to jump between servers and raid multiple in a short timespan.
Casual play with friends and switching servers as needed over time will not be mistaken for this. This applies to large groups of players that switch servers quickly in order to obstruct gameplay for a large number of users.Prehistoria should accommodate users with different playstyles. You’re allowed to PVP, KOS, or target users freely–we obviously can’t stop people from fighting who they want!–but you should also always be able to get away from someone you don’t want to play with by going to a different server. If people leave your server to avoid you, let them.
Hacking / Exploiting / Sabotage
- Hacking (using 3rd party scripts/software) will result in a permanent ban with no chance to appeal.
- Using minor bugs is allowed, even in combat!
Be careful that your bug use isn't mistaken for hacking, such as abusing flying bugs. If you're accidentally banned for a bug you can contact moderators to remove the ban.- Sabotage of the game using severe bugs or vulnerabilities will warrant a ban
Breaking moderation tools, crashing servers on purpose, encouraging others to use severe bugs, etc. If you think "haha this is messing up the game for so many people!" then you'll probably be banned for it.- Abusing severe bugs that obstruct gameplay for other users and refusing to report the issue so that you can continue abusing it may result in temporary bans until the bug is fixed
This is a last-resort action to remedy usage of severe bugs that are interfering with others' gameplay
Chat, Conduct, Behavior
We use mutes to enforce Roblox’s code of conduct such as appropriate and child-safe language. The following are treated severely and will result in serious actions such as temporary bans, permanent bans, or very long mute times:
- Hateful language directed at race, gender, sexuality, or religion
- Inappropriate language unsafe for young players
- Profane or inappropriate behavior directed intentionally towards a moderator or staff
Using alternate accounts to evade mutes will quickly result in a permanent ban of all your accounts.
The following issues can result in bans from Prehistoria even if the behavior occurred outside of our game:
- Being dangerous to the real-life safety, security or privacy of others online, such as dangerous stalking behavior, exposure or solicitation of others’ personal information, inappropriate behavior towards minors, account theft, or promotion of illegal activity
- Dedicated harassment of game staff/moderators, such as bypassing bans or blocks to harass a member of staff, or bypassing discord bans repeatedly. You will be given very clear warning if your behavior is leading to an in-game ban.
Non-Disclosure Content
Prehistoria has a private testing branch only accessible to a team of select users which contains content which is not meant to be shared publicly. Prehistoria also has a public testing branch where early-access content is sometimes released publicly to the community before being officially released to the game.
Sharing content from the Private Testing Branch which you know is not meant to be public will result in being permanently barred both from the Private and Public testing branches.
Appealing
Appeals for in-game mutes or bans can be attempted by contacting any moderator or developer. Use of official Discord moderation ticket systems is preferred, but if you cannot access it, you may also comment in the game’s group forums on Roblox.
Please note bans for the following reasons will not be revoked.
- Hacking
- Exposure of inappropriate content to minors or other illegal activity
- Evading moderation actions using alternate accounts
Appeals may be granted or declined on a case-by-case basis.
Major Issues and Case-By-Case Moderation
Please use common sense for anything not mentioned. If you think “well I probably shouldn’t do it, but it’s not against the rules so…” then stop right there. Don’t do it. Users may be banned from Prehistoria if we believe they are intentionally doing things that they know cause harm or stress for our moderators, developers or community members. Developing a game and moderating a large community takes a lot of time and effort; don’t intentionally make it harder.
