This forum is a place where people of different origins and backgrounds meet.

As is the case everywhere, certain rules must be adhered to, which will be monitored by the forum team.

The first priority is mutual respect.

The fact that this is an Internet forum, and is not "real", does not dissolve the basic rules of human coexistence and give excuse to a lack of behavior.

The following rules, as well as the respective area rules, are intended to specify the framework in which the Valnir forum is to be operated.

Violations of these rules may be carried out with administrative measures such as

Warnings, temporary or permanent forum and even ingame banning.

The forum administration team can delete, extend, modify or override parts of these rules at their discretion
