The Nexon forums are for all players of Nexon games to socialize and engage in discussions with each other. To keep the forums a productive and positive place for all players to gather, please keep discussions G-rated. So welcome and take this opportunity to read our forum policy. Enjoy your visit and remember to have fun!
Volunteers/Community Managers:
- The forum community is handled by forum moderators and Community Managers. They are in charge of up keeping and promoting the forum community. They do not have tools to assist players with support inquiries. - Community Managers (also referred to as CMs) are always reading what you have to say and make reports to the appropriate teams when necessary, thus it is highly important players have discussions so all readers, including Community Managers, can understand. - Please do not make threads directed at the Community Managers/Volunteers. They will try to offer assistance if they can but please understand they may not comment or have information to provide at the time. - Volunteers do not have the right to ban or give infractions and are under a set of rules and best practices provided by Nexon to help moderate the forums. Only Community Managers have the power to give infractions and ban other users.
Accounts:
Forum IDs: - Keep it clean. That means avoid the usage of profanity, suggestive language and behaviors, and impersonating Nexon representatives. This includes abbreviations, slang, and other bypasses. - You are allowed ONE forum account. This is to protect threads from being intentionally necro-bumped (bumping old threads), impersonations, and ban dodging. - Inappropriate forum IDs will result in a name change picked by the Community Manager. - Duplicate forum accounts will result in the account banned from the forums.
Account Trading - Account trading is a violation of Nexon's Terms of Use. - Threads asking for free or unused accounts will be deleted. - Intentionally sharing account information of your account or another's user account will result in a permanent ban of the mentioned account.
