All Wildlands West players are responsible for adherence to the following Code of Conduct. To ensure that players read and understand the honor code, signature on the Code of Conduct is required of all participants before they may enter a Wildlands West event. Although no exceptions will be granted to the signature requirement, players who object to specific portions of the Code may submit a written statement detailing their objection. The Wildlands West Campaign Committee will note these objections and bear them in mind if that player's conduct is ever called into question for violation of the campaign honor code.

I, the undersigned, understand that no set of printed guidelines can encompass all that it is to be a good sportsman. I will make every attempt to conduct myself properly at all times at events, and I agree that at the very least, I will abide by the following guidelines to ensure that Wildlands West remains as much fun for everyone as possible:

• I will remember that Wildlands West works to provide a safe, fun environment for all players by creating challenging and interesting situations for its characters. Wildlands West Non-Player Characters are there to interact with and challenge Player Characters-it is never an "us vs. them" situation. Further, volunteers kindly donate their time to improve everyone's gaming experience; they're at WLW to have fun, too. In this spirit, I will always treat everyone with courtesy and seek their enjoyment of the game as well as my own.
• I will not interact as any Non-Player Character outside of events (on the message boards, email, etc.) without prior permission from the WLW Campaign Committee.
• I will not discuss game information relating to storylines, adventures or encounters (including but not limited to NPC stats, backgrounds, motivations) gained while out-of-play, or assisting Wildlands West volunteers, with anyone other than the WLW Campaign Committee without prior permission.
• I will remember that even though certain information may seem to me to be common knowledge, not all characters may know it. Many characters enjoy Wildlands West for the information gathering/sharing/hoarding aspects of the game, and can have much of that fun ruined by hearing about things between games that their character does not know. I will avoid discussing things out-of-game that could ruin the fun and surprise for other characters.
• I will not make disparaging or disheartening remarks to other players based on information I learned while assisting Wildlands West volunteers (i.e., "You guys missed so much treasure on that module!" or "That guy was a from the Web. I can't believe you guys killed him!")
• I will not utilize information gained during my participation in a previous Wildlands campaign as a volunteer or as a Player Character (that has not come to Onyx Hollow) to the benefit of my Onyx Hollow Player Character.
• If I have a conflict with another player (i.e., I believe I hit him but he did not seem to take the blow, he didn't react to spell effects, etc.), I will speak to him out-of-game about it. If we cannot come to a resolution, I will bring the matter to the WLW Campaign Committee and attempt to resolve the situation with their assistance.
• I will make every effort to speak to the WLW Campaign Committee about any significant problems I experienced during an event before leaving site. As a courtesy, I will confirm my comments in writing afterward.
• I understand that there is no "safety net" in Wildlands West. By bringing a Player Character into Onyx Hollow, I take responsibility for my character's victories and calamities. I will be a good sportsman in the face of both.
• I understand that I am responsible for my personal conduct at all times. I am responsible for the consequences of my words and actions and how they may affect those around me. If I am unable to fight safely due to physical limitations, my emotional state, environment, or other factors, it is my responsibility to withdraw from all fights until I can participate safely.
• I will abide by the spirit of the rules of Wildlands West at all times, and will not cheat (by not taking hits, not keeping track of spells or other skills used, forging tags or coins, etc.).
• I understand that if I violate the trust of the Wildlands West Campaign Committee or my fellow participants by breaking this agreement, I may be banned from coming to future Wildlands West. Further, any disciplinary action as a result of bad sportsmanship will be reported to all other NERO chapters, and to the administration of other LARPs.

We thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe, fun and fair gaming environment at Wildlands West.

Your cooperation and understanding in keeping the game safe, fun and fair for everyone is appreciated. If you any have questions about these guidelines, or suggestions to offer, please contact the Campaign Committee.
