 +====== Law: Cheating ======
 +                                                                              
 +  Cheating on Dune is highly frowned upon,  and is the fastest way to reach   
 +  the esteemed level of BANISHMENT. Levels of punishment  come  in  various   
 +  forms.  If something gives you great amounts of exp, gexp, or money in no   
 +  time at all, it is probably an abuse and therefore a cheat! Don't do it!    
 +                                                                              
 +  Cheating on Dune takes on many forms, but is not limited to:                
 +  1) Abusing bugs for money and experience.                                   
 +  2) Using in and out combat tactics.                                         
 +  3) Abusing any bugs/workarounds/loopholes to retain "unique" status items. 
 +  4) Running scripts or using triggers that cause you to automatically attack 
 +  monsters.  This is a particular pet peeve of the administration's, and is   
 +  likely to net you a very harsh penalty even on the first offense.  Unless   
 +  you enter the attack command yourself, it constitutes botting.              
 +  5) Idling in a room where an aggressive NPC spawns.  Because this forces    
 +  you into a combat while you are more than likely not at the keyboard, it    
 +  is against the rules as well.                                               
 +                                                                              
 +  Being caught cheating may result in one or more of the following actions,   
 +  or something worse, depending on the nature of the infraction:              
 +  1) Warning.  DON'T DO IT AGAIN.                                             
 +  2) Loss of stats/exp/levels/quests, depending upon  the  situation.         
 +  3) Loss of character, and deletion of backups.                             
 +  4) And the fun one, SITE  BANISHMENT.   Not  only will you not be able to   
 +  return, you have made everyone from your site unable to login to Dune.      
 +                                                                              
 +  In order to avoid this fate, REPORT ALL BUGS IMMEDIATELY. Failure  to  do   
 +  so  will  result  in  the label 'cheater' being applied to your persona.    
 +  Those who code are human, so  please report the accidental mistakes.  You   
 +  won't regret it.                                                            
 +                                                                              
 +  If you spot someone cheating, please report it.  The wizard staff here will 
 +  take care of the situation.  Once caught cheating, do not attempt to plea   
 +  your case.  It is your fault, and you must serve the punishment.            
 +                                                                              
 +  Ignorance is not an excuse.                                                 
 +                                                                              
 +  As this is not a  complete  list  of what constitutes 'cheating', you are   
 +  reminded that some situations that are not listed  in  these  rules  will   
 +  arise.   As  it  is the discretion of the wizards as to what cheating is,   
 +  you are expected to report anything that resembles cheating.                
 +
