Multis and Account Sharers:

At no time can you share your account with someone else. You can only have one account per internet connection. There is no leniency with this. If you need to be gone for an extended period of time, you can place your account into vacation mode.

If you are caught account sharing, Geoff will always delete all kingdoms involved. He does have a multi-scanner so DON'T TRY IT!!!

If you have a hubby/wife/sibling that wants to play the game as well, talk to Geoff and see if it’s ok to have the two accounts on one internet connection.

Profanity Filter:

There is an automatic script that will catch certain keywords and automatically lock your messaging privelidges. Other messages you send can be reported and in game moderators will lock you if your message is unacceptable or if you are clearly avoiding the filter and still being profane.

Unwritten Guidelines:

If you play LoT for a while you are guaranteed to run into the unwrittenrule debate at some point. None of these guidelines are set in stone, you are perfectly welcome to cast 5 possessions on someone and hit them, or to rob someone blind all day long, etc... Just know that going overboard like that is almost guaranteed to get you in trouble. Your Clan will also have it's own set of policies, it's best to follow those if you expect to get any support from your Clan when trouble starts.

Possessions – It is common acceptance that a necro can cast 1 successful possession or 2 successful lesser possessions to make an attack. They are the ones that have to do the attacking though. If you cast a possession for your coven mate to hit… that will cause trouble. It is looked upon as gangbanging. Your offensive spells are to be used for your benefit, except for war time.

Other Offensive Spells – Same as possession, it is acceptable to do an offensive spell for the benefit of attacking. If you do an offensive spell, like Open Gate or Sleep, and then your covenmate or friend does the hit, that can be looked at as gangbanging by some people/clans. People are pretty uptight about OG may want to check with your Clan policies or leader before using it.

Attacking – It is VERY shady to attack a kingdom more than once every 4 days. If you can see the attack on that kingdom in your coven news, then it’s too soon to attack that kingdom again. Also, when hitting, do not double hit. The exception to this: if they left themselves wide open, are a KT, or they suicided. Another thing that is looked down on is attacking a kingdom the same day that your covenmate attacks them. It’s looked at as gangbanging.

Thieving – When robbing someone, try not to rob them more than 5 times successfully in one day. If you rob more than that, CONSISTENTLY, people tend to get upset and take retaliatory action.

Someone already possessed – When you spy on someone’s military, always keep an eye on their military. If you see exactly 1% of each of their military unit types out with 1 character… that means they were possessed. Look at their SOR and you can normally get an idea if they were already possessed and hit. If you hit while they were possessed/hit by another kingdom… you may run into trouble with people thinking you gangbanged.

Suiciding – If you suicide, it’s your hiney. Don’t get mad if people possess your final two characters or cast spells/attack you. You basically decided your kingdom wasn’t worth much to you by sending far too much out. Don’t complain about it.

If you DO suicide, there are a few penalties to be aware of which were designed to discourage you from doing it. SO DON’T DO IT! =P

Penalty #1 – Making a suicide attack will give you zero experience. This is when you send more than 60% of your defensive points off base. The battle calc will force you to check a box allowing you to go suicidal.

Penalty #2 – If you have less than 1/3 defense points for characters and military home, you get 1/3 experience gain for defense.

Bashing -- Attacking a kingdom less than 1/3 your size is considered bashing… the game warns you in big red letters when you are on that kingdoms information page. You will receive less land/experience as well if you proceed with the hit. Even though the benefits of bashing are very slim and act as a deterrent, you may receive punishment from the defending clan. Bashing is never accepted.
