Server Rules and Forum Rules
Offical Rules of Lethium

''' This means In-Game & Forums! '''
 *  Advertising  - We will not accept advertising here. Any advertising of forums or other communities/websites will not be accepted. If you do happen to see advertising, you are to report it to a member of staff immediately and it will be removed/handled. Advertising is not permitted by any means, anywhere on the forums or in-game. This includes signatures, profiles, graphics (or requests), private messages, usertitles, and such customizable spaces. Some servers have their server addresses the same as their website. If this is the case, then unfortunately, you will not be permitted to advertise it on Lethium. Search engine links containing search results that lead to forums aren't allowed of course If you post an image that displays a link to a forbidden website, it is punishable. Referral website(s) are also not allowed anywhere on the forum.

'''Please understand that linking to a website which contains a forum link is STILL considered advertising, and is punishable. (Spam rule still applies)'''

Note: Harassment is similar to flaming. '''Note: This also applies to your signature, avatar & profile picture. This includes requesting such content''' ''' Please Remember! +Independent rule statements '''
 *  Ban Evasion  - Ban evasion is considered to be a severe offense, and if conducted, it will lead to even further and possibly more serious consequences.
