rules & botting

(Please see Rules Section of the Newbie Guide for a complete list of rules including those not related to multiplaying.)

Rules
RoninMUD allows a single player to have three characters logged on at the same time. Note that a linkdead character counts towards this limit. More than three characters may only be logged on when all characters remain in the reception or vault room for the SOLE purpose of exchanging equipment. This means that logging on more than three characters to have one of the chars cast a spell on your other characters while all are in reception is PROHIBITED. The only exception to this rule is on "BAM Weekends" in which you may log in five characters.

Character sharing and trading is strictly prohibited.

Botting
Botting is defined as using scripts and actions to have your characters play the mud without any input from you.

Botting is illegal on Ronin, and punishment can range from characters being locked to a full ban. The level of punishment depends on the level of the botting activity.

The only legal actions are those for auto-loot, auto-split, auto-eat and auto-drink. Auto-assists and auto-pummels fall under the bot category. Please note that aliases such as: #al {pum}{#20 pummel} are not actions and are not considered bots in any way.

To ensure you are not using a bot, or even a semi-bot, do not use actions that directly affect your characters. Actions should only send text to your screen to alert you to a required response.
