| <h2>🗃️ Hosting & Server Type Rules</h2> | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| <h4>🌐 Hosting rules</h4> | ||||||
| <ul> | ||||||
| <p>Hosting publicly accessible servers requires them to be registered with Teeworlds' and DDNet master servers. | ||||||
| Game servers that register with these master servers are subject to <a href="https://www.teeworlds.com/?page=docs&wiki=rules/server_rules">the server hosting rules of Teeworlds</a> as well as the additional DDNet rules:</p> | ||||||
| <li>A modified Teeworlds server must not use a standard gametype (dm, tdm, ctf, lms, lts)</li> | ||||||
| <li>0.6.x and previous: The player count shown must resemble the amount of human players. The maximum player count must be the maximum number of human players.</li> | ||||||
| <li>0.7.x and later: You can also include non-human players using a special bot flag. This allows client-side filtering.</li> | ||||||
| <li>Do not host an excessive amount of servers. There is no fixed limit but try to not overdo it. (i.e. there should be people playing on them eventually)</li> | ||||||
| <li>Do not host servers purely for advertising purposes (e.g. passworded & having only an advertisement as name; having sponsoring info or the likes in the server name is perfectly fine).</li> | ||||||

Suggested change
There was a problem hiding this comment. that's copy and pasted from teeworlds There was a problem hiding this comment. fair - i just dislike how it reads :P There was a problem hiding this comment. I know what you mean, gotta get more feedback. if more ppl are for changing that, we can do that. It does not change the meaning, just improves wording/readability, might be fine. |
||||||
| <li>Do not advertise cheats (in i.e. message of the day, server messages, server name, through NPCs, etc.)</li> | ||||||
| </ul> | ||||||

This reads wrong. The "DDNet rules" below are currently copied from the link, those are not additional rules except the last one.
