1. Compete with integrity
Cheating, unauthorised tools, exploit abuse, match manipulation and knowingly gaining an unfair technical advantage are prohibited. Report serious bugs privately to ARCL staff instead of using or distributing them.
2. Respect other people
Harassment, threats, hate speech, discriminatory abuse, doxxing and targeted humiliation are not welcome. Competitive disagreement is normal; personal abuse is not.
3. Protect fair play
Do not intentionally grief, teamkill, sabotage teammates, ghost information, stream-snipe or disrupt organized matches. Follow event-specific instructions given by authorised match staff.
4. Use communication responsibly
Do not spam, flood channels, impersonate staff, distribute scams or post malicious links. Keep names, images, loadout descriptions and other public content appropriate for the community.
5. Respect accounts and systems
Do not access another person's account or game identity, evade a ban, probe private systems, misuse APIs, attack infrastructure or interfere with loadout files belonging to another player.
6. Publish responsibly
Only publish loadouts from a profile you control. Use accurate titles and descriptions, credit relevant creators, and do not upload illegal, infringing, hateful or deceptive images or text.
7. Follow staff direction
Administrators and match officials may act to keep services safe and competition orderly. Do not obstruct an active moderation action. Concerns about a decision should be raised calmly through the official appeal or staff-contact channel.
8. Enforcement
Responses may include content removal, warnings, temporary restrictions or permanent removal from some or all ARCL services. Context, severity, history and risk to the community may affect the response.
9. Report problems in good faith
Use the loadout report feature or official ARCL staff channels for genuine concerns. Deliberately false, retaliatory or repeated bad-faith reports may themselves lead to moderation.
10. Rule updates
These rules cannot describe every harmful behaviour. ARCL may address conduct that clearly undermines safety, fairness or the operation of the community and may update these rules as the league develops.
