This page is intended to point out the things that may not be easily apparent in the theme files, but should be kept in mind.

A.I.

We are not allowing A.I. Adventurer applications. We are aware that there are some canon characters who land under this concept - many of which can be adjusted into actual players.

Salary Men

Business People make use of Elder Tale Online in order to run meetings because it is more expressive than telecommunication. It isn't unlikely for them to gift things such as player housing or furniture in order to get a leg up. Some players have built an economy around hosting such events.
