The GE Online team will state or list downs the following guidelines for the players to read and understand. Should there be any case not stated in these guidelines then the GMs shall have full discretion and authority in resolving such issues.

The GE Online Operations Policy may be changed at any time without prior notice to the users. The user shall be held responsible for checking for any changes to the policies. If the user continues to use the Service after we post changes to these Terms of Use, then they are signifying their acceptance of the new terms.

2. Users Obligation and Rights

Duties of the Customer

The users are required to read and understand the guidelines, conditions, and follow policies that govern the game in order to have a balance and orderly game community. If they fail to fully understand the policies, then they shall be held fully responsible to any consequences that may happen.

The user needs to immediately report game errors and other game play issues and submit them to the GMs. The users are not allowed to pass this information to other users through any means in order to avoid the abuse of such bugs or errors.

Account security – whether it is password protection, running virus checks, disabling file sharing, disabling third-party programs, or any other means of safeguarding your accounts, is the sole the responsibility of the account owner. Users are to be held responsible for their own accounts.

Any and all non-game related trades are strictly prohibited. A list of possible violations and sanctions can be found on this link (Sanctions and Violations).

Players are obliged to respond to any GM’s inquiries and requests in-game or through Q&A.; The cooperation of the players is highly desirable. Please note though that GMs will never ask for your username and password.

Players sending inquiries through our Q&A; section (if deemed necessary) need to send us complete and authentic information regarding their account. In case there are anomalies or discrepancies regarding the account information then certain requests such as those that require the submission of accurate user information may not be processed (e.g. hack cases).
