CODE OF CONDUCT

Don’t be a cheat!

What constitutes cheating in Backgammon Masters?

Cheating in Backgammon Masters includes any attempt to gain an unfair advantage over other players. This encompasses manipulating rankings, using multiple accounts, exploiting bugs, and especially using third-party software. Such actions violate the spirit of fair competition and our terms of service, leading to strict penalties.

Third-Party Software:

Third-party software refers to unauthorized applications or programs that alter the natural gameplay, aiming to provide an unfair advantage. This also extends to any programs designed to aid playing, such as:

  • Mods: Hacks or programs that change game functionalities.
  • Bots: Services or scripts that automate gameplay.
  • Assistance Programs: Any software that directly aids playing decisions or actions.
  • Any software aiming to modify gameplay or offer unearned progress.

Using these tools compromises game integrity and player privacy, posing significant risks.

What are the consequences of cheating?

Utilizing third-party software, game exploits, assistance programs, or engaging in any form of cheating may result in heavy account penalties. Consequences range from temporary suspensions to permanent bans of all involved accounts, depending on the offense's severity. Refer to our Code of Conduct for details. Our aim is to ensure a safe, fair, and enjoyable environment for all players.

How can I ensure I'm playing fairly?

To play fairly, avoid any actions or software that might seem against the rules. If you're uncertain whether something is permissible, it likely isn't. We urge players to rely on their skills and strategy, report any bugs or exploits they find, and compete with integrity. Your commitment to fair play helps maintain the fun and spirit of Backgammon Masters for the entire community.

If you're unsure whether an action violates the rules, err on the side of caution and assume it does.
