Dark Runescape Wiki
This article is about the current rules of RuneScape. For the original rules prior to 11 May 2009, see Rules of Conduct (historical).

The Rules of RuneScape, also known as the Rules of Conduct, are the rules established by Jagex by which a player must abide while playing RuneScape, using the official RuneScape forums, and visiting the RuneScape website. As of 11 May 2009, the rules of conduct fall into one of three categories: Honour, Respect and Security. If you feel that someone is violating one of the rules of RuneScape, you can report the player using the Report button below the chatbox.

Note: These rules were copied from the RuneScape website, but we cannot guarantee that they are accurate or up-to-date. Therefore, the rules given here cannot be taken as definitive, only those listed on the RuneScape website can. It is individual players' responsibility to ensure that they abide by Jagex's current rules and policies at all times in the game, on the RuneScape Forums, and everywhere else. Jagex rules are also enforced on this wiki, and any user who posts information or advice on how to break rules may be blocked from editing.
