Greetings ladies and gents.

To be honest this isn't much of 2 "new" rule additions as it is to get it on the rules page. These were rules in the past and I'm guessing it was removed by accident or never put up because it is a rule(s) so obvious that it doesn't need to be posted. Either way it is a rule that has been and is still enforced (though not officially posted).

Rule Title Proposal: Do Not Threaten To Hack
Possible Description: Do not threaten to hack, crash, or damage in any way servers/computers.

Rule Title Proposal: No Hacking
Possible Description: Do not hack, crash, or damage in any way servers/computers.

To be honest I wasn't sure if this post was even necessary . These 2 proposed rules are pretty much rules already, but I think they should be "Written in stone" if you get my meaning. I think at least the First one should get posted.

I think "No Bug Exploiting" pretty much takes care of it. Since hacking is bug exploiting.

Unless they get into memory addresses and packets.
I think it's a great rule to add. Better to have it put up there in specifics then have some guy point out it wasn't up there, and have to tell him he's technically right.

Isn't that common sense? o.o

It's common sense if you steal something it's against the law. Doesn't mean people don't do it if you don't have some kind of warning. Hell, people STILL do it when your store or home is plastered in warnings and security.

Only raising our chances against it by adding the rule.

agreed and signed

That's still exploiting...

Doubtful.

How about we just move "Do Not Discuss Illegal Activities" into Overall Rules?

That is a good idea too.

JA's packets are sequenced. Good luck spoofing them.
"Getting into memory addresses" would be via a buffer overflow to execute remote shellcode. All known vulnerabilities are patched, and it'd count as hacking/exploiting, so

I think if someone is going to go so far as to attack the server, they don't give a crap about the rules obviously so adding these will have no (Or even negative) effect.

I think a discussion between the admins is needed regarding illegal activities and topics in the server..

More specific rules means less warnings given which I am all for. I think it's a good idea.

More specific rules means LESS LAYING DOWN THE LAW WITH OUR FISTS

I agree with IceCream more rules the better

But I like to use my fists.

*sigh* So do I, but the bloody mess after the beatdown is just too much

That's why you clean it up with your tongu- er... Mop I mean.

Too obvious, we could fill our rules page with 500 rules if we wanted to

We should attempt to fill the rules page with every possible rule.
Or at least this thread. Or maybe a thread in the spam section.
Let's make one of those.

The punishment should be a direct ban i think :S

true... but you have to admit Razors suggestion for moving the "Do not discuss illegal activities" should be moved to overall rules
