Bots have no wit or brain; they just charge at you at the nearest given opportunity and will only be stopped by a wall. Naturally, their lack of intelligence allows them to be abused in unimaginative ways. Glitching is the solution to a cheap victory. Players can just pick off bots like a trapshoot which isn't a challenge and not the purpose of this mod.

As a general rule, if it seems like something you are doing should not be possible, it is quite likely a glitch. If in doubt, don't do it… or ask a developer or admin.

Here are some more specific guidelines for determining what is a glitch:

• A place where nords cannot access.
• A position where bots cannot reach you in melee.
• A place where only bots with very long weapons can reach you (like pikemen).
• A place where bots get stuck deliberately and cannot escape.
• Blocking bots with objects that they will not destroy.
• Standing on barricades and platforms which are stacked or built on a wall or other prop.
• Toming yourself in.

These are some edge-cases which are not considered a glitch:

• Places reachable by most melee bots (such as a large rock or medium wall).
• Standing on barricades which are on the ground and can be destroyed by melee bots.
• Bots suiciding on friendly fire (they do not drop xp).
• Fence hopping if the bots can access the area on the other side.

Stacking deployable items such as barricades and platforms on each other was never intended and is considered glitching. Barricades and deployable shields may be built on walls and props that are a part of the map but not on each other. Platforms must be built on the ground. Any deployables that do not match these requirements should be destroyed.

The creation of characters just for the purpose of selling their starting gear for gold is considered a glitch. Any player found with an unusually high number of alts with no/low stats will be closely examined and generally banned immediately.

Do not simply ignore people who are glitching. If you are found to have knowingly played while someone was glitching, you might very well be suspected of using the glitch yourself and could share in the punishment!

Remember that admins and most players in this mod shun the idea of glitching. Anyone caught glitching will receive a warning at least. Subsequent glitching or severe glitching will lead to more serious consequences such as character resets and banning. If you want to be a stubborn idiot and challenge the admin, you will be banned.
