Refusing to comply with the Moderator's request may result in the temporary or permanent ban of your forum account.
• The forum has a profanity filter in place and bypassing this filter is not allowed, however light swearing such as "crap" will be tolerated to a point. (example of bypassing: if "stupid" is a filtered word, writing it as "$tupid" "stup!d" or the likes, or using broken code is bypassing.) All bypasses of the swear filter are infractable offenses, and if it continues after you have been infracted the poster will be reported for a ban. (See Warnings at the bottom of the post.) You are also NOT allowed to teach others how to bypass. Teaching others how to bypass will result in your account being banned WITHOUT warning.

This is a 13+ forum, not an 18+ forum. Moderators will use their best judgment to make a decision on what material is deemed inappropriate. Please respect the younger members of our community.
• No personal arguments or conversations will be tolerated. This means two people dominating a thread with personal conversations that cannot include another forum member, or arguments following the same format. This also includes threads made personally addressed to a specific poster to gain their attention or insult them.

• Keep the name calling and flaming to a minimum. An opinion is fine, but there is a limit.
• Harassment or belittling others will not be tolerated. Posts and/or threads will be edited, deleted and closed if necessary. Private Messages are not mediated by the Moderators due to the inability of the Moderator to verify the authenticity of the Private Message. If you are being harassed by someone via Private Messages, you are advised to place the harasser on ignore by using your Buddy/Ignore list
• Making fun of poor English speakers will not be tolerated. Please respect each other even if you may not be able to understand them. Insults and jeering of poor English speakers will be removed. Realize that not all forum members speak English fluently.
• Do not use the report button to submit false reports. Users who see any of the above material, can use the “report a post” icon under each forum accounts post however it should be noted that those who file false reports will be warned for their actions on two separate incidents prior to their first red infraction and eventually banned after further infractions. (See warnings)

TQ and the Moderator staff realize that not everyone speaks English fluently and we do allow threads for posters who speak different languages to converse with each other in their native language. It also should be noted that an ACCURATE English translation must be provided as the thread is also bound to the rules of the forum. Failure to provide an accurate translation can result in your thread being deleted or closed. Also note that non-English posts in an English threads should also have a English translation provided.

Hello and welcome to the suggestions section of the Conquer Online forums! In this section, the community pitches their own ideas about things they believe can make Conquer Online better. While I am sure a lot of you are eager to start posting, there are a few guidelines to follow in doing this. Guidelines are very important so that we can do the best job possible to make the Suggestions section of Conquer Online a better place, so let’s start from the top, here are some things you should know before posting:

General Guidlines

• Read the rules for “Community” section located here. Pay attention, because every rule listed there will be enforced here as well.
• As the forums search has been disabled, we have overtime used a google search to search for threads. View how to here
• Check the Approved Suggestions. Any suggestions in this section have been approved by TQ Digital, and can be implemented into Conquer Online at a future date.
• Look in the Recommended by Mods. Any suggestions here have strong support from the community. If a thread is in this section, then a new thread on the topic should not be created. Feel free to continue supporting a thread after it has been added to the Recommended Section through continuous posting in that relative thread.
• Look in the Denied Suggestions to find out if your suggestion; the same or similar to yours has been denied recently. Chances are subsequent threads similar to, or the same as ones in this section will also be denied. However If you strongly feel a thread has been wrongly denied, PM your case to a mod or admin and they will consider placing it back in the main forum. But please remember there is no guarantee that the thread will be moved.
• Look in the Recommended Suggestions List thread. If your suggestion matches one in there, you thread will be denied, merged or closed.

Regarding Threads and Polls

• Thread titles should reflect your idea. Threads with titles like "Good idea" or "Best suggestion ever" may be edited or closed.
• Angry polls or threads may be closed at the Moderator's discretion.
• Please edit the first post of your thread to reflect any changes you have agreed on. If TQ were to read them, the first post is most likely all they'll ever read.

These steps are not required in order to post, however it is Strongly Recommended that you follow them. If you do not follow these steps, do not be surprised if your thread is moved to the denied suggestions or closed without notice or given reason.

Now, here are a few things to keep in mind when posting your ideas:

• Please include a poll, unless you are specifically looking for opinions and discussion. Any thread which does not contain a poll will be considered a Discussion thread. A thread will NOT be placed in Recommended Suggestions if it does not contain a poll.
• Please remember to keep the poll options to a minimum. A simple 'yes' and 'no' will work in most occasions. Too many options will split the votes, making it less likely the thread will be place in recommended section.
• Down with biased polls! All biased polls or ones insulting posters for making a choice in either direction will be denied.
• Any poll where you can select multiple options will be closed or denied. These polls are not accurate.
• Make sure your title is descriptive, and overall indicative of your suggestion. Try not to be misleading. A suggestion entitled something generic like "Suggestion" or "A good idea", or which includes descriptors such as "must read", will be closed or denied.
• Try and fully explain your idea, and make sure it is relatively well developed. "We need more quests" is not a suggestion, it is a generalization. Expand your ideas, give TQ something to work with, give examples.
• Be open to constructive criticism. An idea will rarely ever be perfect from the get-go. By the community discussing the matter, the idea will come closer to something that suits everyone.
• Do not worry about if TQ will like the idea or not. This forum is designed for the community to produce and refine ideas. If an idea has a lot of support, it will be put in recommended section regardless. If TQ likes it, they will use it. If not, they won’t. Let TQ decide what TQ will do.
• It is preferable to only include one suggestion per thread. If the community is listing multiple suggestions in one thread it cannot be recommended.
• Be proud of your great ideas, feel free to tell your friends to check it out, but try not to go overboard. Do not go to every chitchat section telling everyone about your wondrous suggestion, this will cause your suggestion to be automatically denied, and the ChitChat Mods may issue infractions for spamming in their sections.
• You are allowed to petition for change, however any thread made for petition should refrain the use of bypasses and excess language which would make the thread uncivil. If you want to protest for player killing back in Twin City fine, just do it peacefully and respectfully to TQ or do not do it at all.

Now, a list of things you should not make topics about as in most cases these will be automatically denied:

• Anything that is not an actual suggestion. This includes complaining about a recent change made to the game, website or other. Petition threads wont be considered complaint threads once they remain civil and decent.
• Threads pertaining to Upcoming patches. Threads about an upcoming patch maybe automatically denied or closed until 2 days after the official release date of the patch to ensure that your suggestion is not based on fear from a feature of the patch (before it is released) and that comments following the suggestion can be supported with theories based off experience rather theories based upon opinion from reading (Note: petition threads will follow this rule as well). While a discussion thread maybe fine, they maybe better suited for the community section if the patch has not yet been released.
• Homo-sexual marriage/Sex change
• PK safe areas, adding/moving guards, pk system changes, etc
• Virtually anything involving how crowded/laggy TG is
• Server split/merge requests. Those go here
• Server requests for a certain group of people
• New Classes (TQ had asked player opinions on this before and after discussion, 4 classes were created by the players. See here for details New Classes Discussed)
• Complaining about how weak a class is
• Removing a class from the game
• Reporting bugs/hacks/account issues, etc
• The way TQ does business or runs their games/servers/forum/website. If you have a problem or a suggestion of their decisions, send them an email instead.
• Anything which would alter the game fundamentals
• Adding NPCs such as pharmacist/blacksmith to lab
• Ideas brought about by pure laziness
• Complaining about the difficulty of leveling, skill training, socket making, drop rates, etc…
• Monsters with levels as high as the level cap. New monsters suggested should be 10 levels below the cap. New stakes at the training grounds should also be 10 levels below the cap.
• New skills for the existing classes (ideas involving 2nd rebirth are fine)
• New pieces of equipment, such as 2-handed swords, quivers, gauntlet/buckler (for war with a 2h) etc
• Horses/Mounts
• Botting, changes to botjail, ways to catch botters, cheat prevention, fix aimbot, ect
• New versions of conquer, CO3, etc
• Name Changes
• Server Transfers/DB transfers
• Mobs Dropping CP

Finally, a few more things to keep in mind:

• The thing that will get your thread denied in most occasions is failure to follow the rules of the forum. Ensure that they are followed. Other times threads will be denied simply because support was minimal.
• Moderators do not play favorites. The mod team remains as unbiased as is possible. Just because your idea was denied does not mean that we hate you or are conspiring against you.
• Moderators do not need to explain their actions. If your idea was denied, then you should be able to find out why by looking at the rules.
• Moderators will make their own decisions; it’s not your place to make those decisions for them. Let them do their job.
• If you have a problem with a moderator, do not make threads screaming "Nazi censorship capitalism!" Email synsia or Opal with your official complaint.
• Persisting with a thread (i.e. reposting) after it has already been denied/closed will result in a warning, if reposting continues a ban request will be issued.
• The threads in this section are to be taken seriously as suggestions to be submitted to TQ. If you are looking to make joke threads or spam please take it to another section.
• These rules are subject to change at any time, without notice
