Arrav In-Game Rules

[Advise 2]

Section One - Trading / Scamming

 

 

1.1 Trade scamming

Trade Scamming commonly involves a player advertising the sale of a good at a lower than average price. The item will be placed up at the start of the trade with the amount agree, however just before accepting the first screen they may choose to switch out the good for something or lower value which looks visually similar. Trade Scamming in this form is NOT allowed on Arrav and will incur an infraction with valid video evidence, the infraction length will depend on the amount scammed.

 

1.2 Selling Unlimited Vote Method

The Unlimited or Infinite Vote method is a means for players to vote an unlimited amount of times for Arrav and allows them to reap the rewards. While using this method is not illegal, selling the method or giving away the method to others for any form of in-game or external currency is disallowed and will result in an infraction.

Password scamming occurs when a player gives out an account only to recover it at a later stage and take the account back with all of the temporary owners items. We advise players not to accept accounts from others and create their own account. 

 

1.5 Money Doubling

Money doubling is a type of giveaway which is dis-allowed on Arrav. It involves a player claiming to double your money if you trust them with your money first.

If it is proved that money has been scammed then a lengthier punishment will be placed.

 

1.6 Trust Trade Scamming

A Trust Trade scam occurs when a player lends an item to another play on the grounds that the item will be returned at a later date.
