1.6 Use of our Game Servers
1.6.1 Our Goals
Part of our services is aimed at online gaming. We have several servers online where players from around the world may connect to. While connected to these servers, you are bound by the Terms of Service and Privacy Statement above, as well as any addition terms described below.
We aim to make the gaming experience fun and enjoyable for each and every user, regardless of race, ethnicity, believes (political or spiritual), orientation, skill level, social status or anything that may identify a person. Therefore, you shall not discriminate against other players, use hateful or insulting speech, and you will keep the chat free of unnecessary content aimed to attack a person or our any of our services.
1.6.2 General Rules
You shall not upload and use content (in form of sprays) or create things that are in violation of our Terms of Service, you shall not hammer our service and flood the chat with spam messages or messages to attack a person or entity. You shall not grief other players. You shall not use cheats, hacks or exploits. And, you shall not disrespect an admin (or any other player) on any of our servers.
Breaking any of these rules may result in a kick from the server and a ban. Bans are network wide. This means, if you get banned on one server, you will get banned on all the servers. You may appeal your ban using our forums if you feel your ban is unjustified, and we will evaluate your request and investigate our log files.
In short, be nice and keep it fun for everyone.
1.6.3 Limitations
Our servers are located in Antwerp, Belgium. For high pace games such as Team Fortress 2 or Counter-Strike, we enforce users to have a reasonable ping count when connected to our servers. If your ping is too high, then perhaps it is better to find a server that is nearer to you. We generally do not discriminate against people from other locations, but you must know that playing with a high ping causes problems for other players, and it’s generally not fun to play against players that are rubber-banding from one position to another, just because of their high latency.
Therefore, we have decided that players with a latency higher than 110ms will be kicked from high-paced game servers, and players with a ping higher than 200ms will be kicked from other game servers.
