1. Botting (using robotlike scripts) is illegal. Botting is defined as
any activity which your character is performing without the player being
awake, at the keys, paying attention to the window, and issuing direct
commands through whatever interface you use. This definition of botting
includes following another character and being "leveled" without making
an attempt to join in on the action, as well as having scripts to perform
functions independent of player interaction. We realize there are clients
out there that can practically play the game themselves. Don't use them.

The following types of scripts are illegal, regardless of whether your
player is actually behind the keyboard:
* Scripts that move you around ("walker" scripts). This does not include
the "speedwalking" features built into some clients. Speedwalking is
permitted, but please do not dump large amounts of movement commands to
the game at once - you will most likely be disconnected.
* Automated combat - for example, scripts that "scan" and move you to fight
a certain NPC. Any script that automatically starts combat without
interaction from the player is illegal.
* "Spamming" scripts that dump a lot of commands to the game at once.
* Anti-idle scripts. If you aren't playing the game or using the chat rooms,
please log off using the QUIT command.
* Any script that controls the character while you are not at the keyboard
or paying attention to the game window.

2. You are responsible for your character and any scripts you run using
that character. If you have an active script that is poorly written and
allows another player to trigger it - thus causing your character to do
stupid things - you are at fault. Similarly, if you find a player that has
easily-abused triggers, they should be reported to an Immortal or the
Administrators via email to admin@materiamagica.com, as soon as possible,
and then left alone.

3. Do not engage in any behavior where a primary purpose is to increase
skill or spell usage.
