Official Raider Knight Forum Rules

Welcome to the official Raider Knight forums! We're pleased you've joined the community and are eager for you to add your voice to conversations and start new discussions.

The official forums intend to serve as a comfortable, safe environment for ideas, thoughts, and experiences to be communicated with the community. While many who join the Raider Knight community will inherently understand our goal of a constructive and inviting community, there may be occasions where precise clarity is needed to determine just which behaviors and content are appropriate for the official forums.


To address this need, we have compiled the following list of rules.

1. You need to be at least 18 years old or older to access this website.


2. Until you have 3 posts on the forum, your posts are subject to moderator approval.
Don't worry though, once you have 3 posts you can post freely without restrictions! Just be patient, and don't re-post messages!


3. Signature module is enabled, but you are not allowed to add sponsored links.
Those who add sponsored links to their signature, the module will be disabled on their account.


4. Always post or start a topic in the right category.


5. Do not attack others.
This includes, but is not limited to:
  • Insults (against individuals, groups, companies, or countries)
  • Comments that attack or disparage a Race/Ethnicity/Nationality/Religious Belief/Political Affiliation/Gender/Sexual Orientation or Identity
    Harassment of individuals or groups.
  • Naming/Accusing/Calling Out: Do not accuse or call out other players for misbehavior. This sort of issue is not resolvable on a forum. If a player has violated our Terms of Service, please create a support ticket.
  • Posting Provocatively: While we frequently have strong opinions, it is important to phrase things in a manner that is as constructive as possible.
  • Trolling posts created for reaction is not appropriate.
  • No Threats Allowed. This includes both physical threats and threats of legal action.
  • Don't bitch modders because of bugs in their mods or for other reason.
  • Don't bitch artist because you don't like their creation

6. Do not spam or post non-constructively. This includes:
  • Posting "+1," "Thanks," or similar posts without content.
  • Posting in a non-constructive manner, or with excessive negativity, which often involves some aspect of section 1.
  • Reposting topics multiple times, copying posts to existing threads on other topics, and posting threads in the wrong subforum.
  • Bumps, or posts simply to manipulate the order of thread display, are not allowed. All posts need some form of constructive content.

7. Solicitation and Advertising:
Spamming is not allowed. This includes aggressive self-promotion. No advertising, promotion, Marketplace listings, products, or services. Do not reference other websites offering any product or service.


8. Do not post about moderator actions, regarding your accounts or those of others.
We will not enter into debates regarding moderation, which we administer in accordance with these guidelines.
  • If you have questions about or wish to appeal moderator actions, please contact us via direct message on the forum (Community Managers).
  • If you have questions about suspensions or bans in game, please contact us under: https://discord.gg/d3U9E2wb4Y (these actions are administered by Raddeck (Admin)).

9. Official topics/threads: Do not disrupt or go off-topic in threads started by someone else.
Official threads may contain additional instructions or requests; please read them before posting!


10. Content not permitted on Raider Knight Official Forums:
  • Extreme Sexuality or Extreme violence: Discussion of excessive sexuality or violence stories is not allowed. These sorts of topics are best shared between friends, not on public forums.
  • Personal Information: Sharing of others' personally-identifying information is not allowed and will be sanctioned immediately, and harshly. If you wish to share your own information, including social media addresses or game network tags, you may do so.
  • Illegal Pornography: The posting of child/under 18/bestiality/ultra gore/sado pornography is not allowed.
  • Illegal Activity: Do not promote or discuss illegal activities on the forums.
  • Advertisements or direct links to pages encouraging commercial transactions on our forums. This includes overt promotion or recruiting for other games.
  • Religion and Politics: These are not topics for official game forums. This includes Off Topic forums.
  • Infringing Content: Do not post anything that supports or encourages IP or copyright infringement.

11. The use of multiple accounts is not allowed.
  • Suspensions are for individuals, not accounts. Creating additional accounts to avoid suspensions is not allowed.
  • Users who connect from the same location or computer may be subject to suspensions taken against other users from the same location/computer.
In these cases, the moderation team will make their best efforts to determine the identity of individuals, however this is solely at the discretion of the moderation team.


12. Direct links to images, pages, or sites with content that violate the forum rules are not allowed.


13. Some forums has their own set of rules that everyone should be aware of. Please take time to read them.



We moderate at our discretion
We evaluate posts on a case-by-case basis and take into account the severity of the conduct and any history of past violations. Although we will make reasonable efforts to take into consideration the context and general sentiment of the Discord or forum discussions, the actions taken (or not taken) by Raider Knight and our moderators are at our sole discretion, and we may act without warning or explanation. We provide the discussion areas of our sites as a service to any type of players, and we will take the actions we deem appropriate to keep our sites a productive and enjoyable environment for all members.

In cases where moderator action is required, moderators may edit, move, or delete posts containing violations of the forum rules. Moderators may warn, suspend, or permanently ban accounts from posting on the forums. These actions will be based on both the frequency of required moderation for a specific user and the specific guideline violation in question.

If you wish to discuss and/or appeal any decision taken on your forum account (warning, infraction, suspension or ban), feel free to contact Raddeck via https://discord.gg/d3U9E2wb4Y Please send your message through the email address affiliated to that specific forum account. Use the email subject: [Raider Knight Forums] [YourAccountname] [Warning/Infraction/Suspension/Ban] and include the following information:

Forum name:
Affiliated email address:
Forum action to appeal (warning, infraction, suspension or ban):
Date the action was taken on your forum account:
Reason for appeal:


Please remember that these warnings are only visible to the member, community managers and admins. This is private information and never to be shared with other forum members. The team will NOT treat your inquiry/appeal if it is for an account you do not own.

Not all situations can be encompassed by these guidelines, and Raddeck reserves the right to moderate at his own discretion. Failure to follow these guidelines, or direction from Raider Knight forums representatives, may result in action being taken against your forum account.


However, with these guidelines in mind, we invite you to add your voice to the official Raider Knight forums and become a constructive member of its community.

Welcome and happy posting!
