Metagaming

Using OOC knowledge to influence your IC decisions is strictly prohibited.

  • Keep in-character (IC) knowledge and out-of-character (OOC) knowledge separate.
  • Just because you OOC know something does NOT mean you know it IC. Just because you see a player on the map OOC does NOT mean your character can automatically see them.
  • Do NOT abuse alts to collect information. If you want the info send a REAL scout to collect the information.
  • Do NOT abuse game mechanics, bugs or exploits!

Example:

  • Wrong: You saw someone mention a secret location OOC on a Discord chat. You go to that place IC as if your character magically knows where it is.
  • Correct: Your character hasn’t learned about that location in the game yet, so you don’t act on OOC info until your character finds it organically.

Example:

  • Wrong: You know of an exploit or game bug that gives you more information than your character would normally be able to acquire & use it to have an advantage.
  • Correct: You avoid using exploits & or game bugs to your advantage. Instead choosing to act in good faith at all times.

If your character didn’t learn it, they can’t act on it.
