Game Rules

If you are unsure if something is not allowed, don't hesitate to ask a mod/admin either in-game or on discord.
1.1 User scripts are only allowed when they solely make visual changes.
Idlescape is not affiliated with any userscript, and use of 3rd party scripts is at your own risk
1.1.1 Any form of automation or botting is not allowed.
1.1.2 Creation, distribution or conversation on bots or automation devices are not allowed.
1.1.3 User scripts are under no circumstances allowed to make calls to the server.
1.1.4 The only allowed way to create actions in the game is through the built-in buttons and inputs
1.2 Only one account per player is allowed
You can have as many characters as a single account allows (one regular character, one ironman, one challenge ironman. Challenge Ironman are only approved by admins and can't be created by players)
1.2.1 Having multiple accounts is not allowed - Alts are not allowed.
1.2.2 Players must not share, transfer or lend their account to anyone else.
1.2.3 Account boosting is not allowed (Utilizing an account for the sole benefit of one person)
1.2.4 Don't impersonate others
1.3 Trading any items, services or other things from outside of Idlescape for items, services or other things inside of Idlescape is against the rules
Breaking this rule will result in a tradeban for both players and any gained advantage to be taken away
1.4 Spamming multiple listings of the same item on market.
For example: putting several items at or around the same price in low quantities, would be considered spamming
1.5 Only use the @mods tag for emergencies such as spamming, racism, things being broken etc. Unnecessary use will result in a mute. Use the feedback button or create a discord ticket if you need to get in touch with mods.

2.7 All chat rules also apply to player names, item names, and chatroom names.
Names that do not follow this rule are subject to be "flowered". Having a name that previously did not get flowered is no guarantee for the future

User made chat channels are exempt from rule 2.1: "Spamming is not allowed" and rule 2.5: "Use chat in the way they where meant to be used." Other rules do apply to user made chat channels, and the chat channel owner has the responsibility to ensure the rules are followed.

Scripts and Extensions

Scripts and extensions are allowed to a certain extent, any form of automation of game mechanics is disallowed, unless they are built in.
Things which are not allowed
Any form of usage, distribution or development of extensions which communicate with the game server, are not allowed and will result in a ban.
Only allowed way to communicate with the server and send requests, is by the game's own UI. Things which are not allowed for example:
  • Having a relisting button in marketplace. This directly communicates with server by sending first a unlist request, and then a market listing post request.
  • Fetching prices of market items. This would send requests to server to fetch the prices for individual items.
  • Adding a hotkey to augmenting.
Things which would be allowed
  • Having additional metrics, exp/hm, etc., in resource nodes.
  • UI changes and new UI element, as long as they don't SEND requests to server.
  • Show in UI what buffs from equipment you have active.
