What is GM abuse? GM Abuse is when a GM uses their power to an advantage in a unfair situation.

Below are perfect examples of GM abuse:

- Giving out free items (Especially items that are hard to get or Donating items, If a GM gives you some items without any reasons, tell it to us, it might give a reward.)

- Abuse of powers (Killing someone using a GM command, or porting players without reason.)

- Threatening to ruin the server (This has happened to other servers if you see a GM saying that, Report it right there and on the spot.)

- Harassment (As one of the staff members of KimybaWoW they need to respect players, Examples of Harassment are trying to get you to release information about yourself you do not feel comfortable releasing, Making fun of something that has happened to you that is serious, a relative's death is one of them.)

- Threats towards players (This is what most players are afraid of, GMs have threatened people just too keep they're powers, as Beasted has stated for every ban there is a quick and easy un-ban, so don't be intimidated by threats report it.)

- Showing Favoritism (Most GMs are un-aware they're showing favoritism but if it becomes too much of a problem it spins out of control, Examples of Favoritism are Giving out free items, Dragging the player around with them, Taking the player's (Being shown favoritism towards) side immediately and without question over another player, Activating cheats on them (The most ILLEGAL thing a GM can do). Also favoritism can be showed if a gm is skipping tickets to answer their friends ect. tickets are to be done in the order made. *TICKETS DO WORK IN GAME*

Note: The best way to show proof of all these things is SCREEN SHOTS they help us to better understand the situation, and can allow us to make the best decision on the course of action to take against the GM abusing powers. Screen shots are the best way to show what a GM is doing to abuse powers.

Note: This server has many languages, meaning all GMs might not speak yours, so please don't jump to conclusions about what a GM said right away.

How to report GMs abusing powers

Don't report abuse of powers in game... the person your reporting might be the one to answer your ticket.

DO NOT BE AFRAID TO REPORT GM ABUSE (We cant stress this enough) If someone is abusing powers they don't belong on the KimybaWoW staff.

To report GMs abusing powers go to the Staff Communication page in the site menu and send an email to one of the first three on the list (Beasted, Kimyba, Pluto. These are the server Admins) and send a summary of what happened, please send Screen shots if you have any. (Screen shots help A LOT.)
