    Simple rules:

    • RPG webgames only!
    • We prefer to completely free games with no commercial interests behind them (such as production companies), but we will allow you to introduce and/or review them.
    • Definition of commercial RPG games: any game with a (big) production house behind it which develops & hosts one or more games. E.g. GameForge AG, Red Moon studios, etc.
    • Definition of non-commercial RPG games: any game developed by one or a few persons. Most of its income goes to hosting the site and keeping the game running.
      Exceptions can be allowed on a per case basis. E.g. Asymmetric Publications, LLC who develop, run & maintain Kingdom of Loathing (aka KoL). Same thing goes for game developers publishing open source games under a non-commercial license (BSD, GPL, LGPL, ...)
      Thus non-commercial RPG games are in essence free webgames where donations (or membership) does not give players real substantial advantages over non-contributing players.
    • Reference (aka referrer) links are allowed for non-commercial games only.
      All other referral links will be removed. Same rule applies for graphic signature banners!
