Hello,

Along with today's Christmas update + giveaway we've also updated the Shop with a huge bonus on tokens for the next 10 days! You'll also find some new seasonal items that will be removed after Christmas, so make sure to get your hands on them before then.

• Store updates:
  • The Christmas Sale is now live! It will run until January 1st, offering a hefty 50% bonus applied to any token purchase!
    • This amount is applied to the usual base + bonus. For example, an $80 donation usually gives you 900 tokens. It will now give you 1.5x that, equaling 1350 tokens.
  • Seasonal items:
    • Santa costume
    • Wise old man’s santa hat
    • Christmas cracker:
      • For the first time, Christmas crackers are available on Alora!
        • Simply use these on another player in-game, and one of you will end up with the prize. You are guaranteed a party hat, but if you’re lucky, you might get one of the following partyhats from the cracker (if you hit the special partyhat table):
          • Rainbow partyhat (2% chance)
          • Black partyhat (8% chance)
          • Partyhat with specs (10% chance)
          • Wise old man’s partyhat/santa hat (15% chance)

Enjoy! :)

Rules and Regulations

Omicron and Tauri both reserve the right to punish any member as they see fit throughout the entirety of Alora.

Bans are not issued upon request.

Staff discretion applies to all the rules listed below.

In-game Rules

1. Flaming, Disrespect, Harassment, and Inappropriate Content

Within Alora, we seat a culturally diverse community. Communities contain different races, beliefs, ethics, sexual orientations, etc. It is vital that we preserve and protect each culture and that we ensure equality throughout Alora as a whole. The denigration or defamation of a member will not be tolerated. First offenders will receive a 24-hour mute, followed by a 48-hour mute, increasing to a 7-day mute, a 14-day mute, and finally, a permanent mute.

• a. The use of inappropriate, slanderous, and/or disrespectful language towards another’s race, belief system, mental health, ethics, or sexual orientation to personally attack an individual or group will not be tolerated. Although we have an effective ignore system, we expect our members to be courteous towards one another.

• b. Content that is publicized via world yell, public chat, or clan chat that is deemed inappropriate, demeaning, or disrespectful per a staff member’s discretion is not permitted and will correspond with the punishments stated above.

Failure to comply with this will result in a 1-hour jail, followed by a 5-hour jail, increasing to a 24-hour ban, and finally, a permanent ban. Please note that any reports of grief that do not include video evidence will be declined.

Punishments will correspond with the ones stated above. Further action may be taken if it's deemed a group activity or the users involved represent a group. *This applies to the entirety of Alora including forums.
 
 

2. Advertising

Advertisement of another RSPS related community is strictly prohibited. Failure to comply will result in an immediate removal from the community with no chance of appeal.

• a. Widespread, ordinary links (eg. YouTube, RuneLocus, Rune-Server, TopG) are acceptable and will oftentimes be permitted, granted one does not take advantage of this exception.

• b. Discussing other active servers in-game and/or on the forums is strictly forbidden. You may discuss any RSPS that is not online. Members who wish to advertise a link that is not related to RSPS or was not one of the common links aforementioned may send a link to an administrator and await a response containing approval before publicizing their desired link.

• c. Direct advertisement will not be tolerated on Alora. (eg. "Come fight me on Alora, they have a better combat system!"). First offenders will receive a 24-hour mute, followed by a 48-hour mute, increasing to a 7-day mute, and finally, a permanent mute.

• d. Alora has a filter in place to avoid discussion that is harmful to Alora as a whole. Any attempt to get around this system will result in a 48-hour mute, followed by a 7-day mute, and finally, a permanent mute. In addition, any attempt to get around the filter in order to sway other players to donate/switch to another active server will be punished more severely with a 7-day IP-mute, followed by a permanent ban, with the end result being a permanent removal from the community.
 
• e. Whilst we value our clans, we will not tolerate blatant advertising/discussion of other servers, either in their clan chats or, their discord. Our priority here, is to communicate our concerns & work with clans to combat this. If needed &, as a last resort, we will resort to punishments.
 
 

3. Spamming

Spamming on Alora is not allowed, as it causes disarray throughout the server. We aim to maintain a cordial, pleasant atmosphere on Alora. We expect our members to be respectful of one another. Failure to comply with this rule will result in a 24-hour mute, followed by a 48-hour mute, and finally, a permanent mute. If excessive enough, the wrongdoer can be given an IP-Mute, and, finally, a permanent ban will be put into effect if deemed necessary. If the content of the spam contains terribly inappropriate, derogatory, or offensive text, the wrongdoer will receive the latter.

• a. If a member acquires a donor status that has a fairly short yell cool-down timer, that does not give them the right to abuse it under any circumstances.

• b. An auto-typer is allowed via public chat to buy or sell items. However, one must have at least 15-second intervals between each message with or without an auto-typer.

• c. Excessive begging for personal gain will not be tolerated on Alora.

Threats that will put a member’s livelihood, security, personal information, and reputation at risk will result in permanent removal from the community.

• a. Threatening to DDoS a member of the community will not be tolerated, whether you are joking or not. Players found doing this will be punished. First offenders will receive a 72-hour mute, followed by a 1-week IP-mute, and ultimately the player will be MAC/IP banned on their 3rd offense. Aside from the threats, players found to be actually DDoSing another member of the Alora community will receive a complete removal from the community immediately with no chance of appeal.

- Here on Alora, we offer many methods of security by insisting our players use unique passwords and constantly reminding players to enable 2FA. This being said, our Staff Team works hard to keep our players' accounts secure, but it is ultimately up to the player to ensure that security with the tools we have available. Hacked accounts that do not have 2FA enabled are NOT ELIGIBLE for a refund.

• b. Threats against Alora as a whole will not be tolerated. When you threaten Alora you are also threatening every single member of our community, and thus will be held responsible for threats against each and every player. Those who threaten to DDoS Alora will receive a permanent removal from the community with no chance of appeal.
 
 

5. Punishment Evasion

Punishments that are assigned to members are given to further better Alora as a community and maintain a stable, fair, and efficient environment. With that being said, those who evade will not be dealt with lightly; if a member feels as if they were wrongly punished, they can go about it the right way by appealing and constructively stating their case. If one evades, it will result in a ban or an IP-Ban, depending on the magnitude of the situation.

• a.  Giving a user that is evading a ban money and/or items is considered encouraging others to break the rules. Refer to rule #10.

6. Real World Trading

The act of purchasing/selling goods or services (accounts, real-life items, RSGP, Microsoft points, riot points, other private server items for Alora items, etc.) will not be tolerated. This rule further effaces hacks, scams, etc. We will not be held responsible for a scam or hacking. Failure to comply will result in the seller being permanently banned with a complete bank wipe, followed with an IP-ban the second time around. As for the buyer, a 72-hour ban with a complete bank wipe will be arranged, granted it was the first offense. The second offense will result in a 7-day ban with a complete bank wipe, and, lastly, a permanent ban.

• a. Purchasing or selling any Alora account, or donor status is not permitted on the server or forums. First offenders will receive a permanent ban with no chance of appeal; the second offense will result in an IP-ban.

Disclaimer: The attempt or conspiracy to real-world trade will be punished the same as if the user had committed the act(s) in question.
 
 

7. Account Sharing

An account should be actively used by the owner only. This goes for all types of accounts whether it is a level 3 scout for the wilderness, a shared account people used to Teleblock other players, or an account you would share with a friend. Account sharing in an effort to progress another user's account or achievements will be punished with a 48-hour ban, followed by a permanent ban for both parties. For example, if you need items off your friend's account you may log in and take them. But you aren't allowed to go train fishing for him.

• a. Any attempt to give an account away will not be tolerated on Alora. Offenders will receive a permanent ban on the account being given away.

8. Third-Party Software

Applying the use of third-party software that allows a member to have an (any) unfair advantage whatsoever will result in a 24-hour ban, followed by a 48-hour ban, with an ending result of a permanent ban. We strive to maintain an honorable environment where fairness flourishes and hard-earned achievements are commended. This includes auto-clickers, auto-typers, AHK.

• a. The use of botting clients/scripts/ghost mouse are forbidden and will result in an IP-ban as well as permanent bans on all owned accounts.
 
 

9. Multi-Logging

Multi-logging is not against the rules of Alora, as we do allow players to be logged into multiple accounts at once (maximum of 5 connections at any one time). However, we do not allow multi-logging to gain an extreme advantage over other users. We are striving to maintain an environment in which no player has an exponential advantage over other players. First offenders will receive a warning, Second offenders will receive a 24-hour ban, Third offenders will receive a 48-hour ban and bank wipe if deemed necessary, followed up with a permanent ban, and finally, an IP-ban

• a. Playing on multiple accounts at once while participating in the same skill, boss, minigame, or activity outside of the wilderness is allowed up to 3 accounts at a time. Anything that exceeds that will be deemed a violation and the appropriate punishment will be handed to all accounts involved.

• b. Multi-logging in the wilderness is allowed if you have no interaction between any of your accounts. If you have one account skilling in the resource area, and another account killing people in the Revenant Caves this is OK. It is not OK, for example, to skill in the resource area and kill other players there on your alternate account or have multiple accounts participating in the same skill, boss, minigame, or activity. It is also not allowed to use a second account to protect your accounts in the wilderness. Scouts are also allowed to an extent, as long as they do not allow an unfair advantage over other players in the Wilderness. Firstly, scouts must be Level 3 combat and have ABSOLUTELY NO ITEMS equipped or in their inventory. Secondly, for example, if you bring a scout to Chaos Elemental to see who is there BEFORE teleporting there, this is okay. It is not okay, however, to plant a scout outside of the Rev Caves entrance while you kill Revs so that you can see when PKers are coming. Scout must leave before the main account can teleport to this location. This rule also applies to the use of the second account to assist yourself with bossing or skilling in the wilderness.
 
 

10. Encouraging Others to Break Rules

Members that are somehow encouraging others to break a rule whether or not the enticed member understands that specific rule will receive a 24-48 hour mute or 24-hour ban, depending on the extremity or severity of the rule.

• a.  Giving a user that is evading a ban money and/or items is considered encouraging others to break the rules and the first offense will result in a 7-day ban followed with a permanent ban for the second offense.

11. Bug Abuse

Abuse of a bug or glitch that allows a member to somehow have an advantage over another member or the server itself is not tolerated. We strive to better Alora each and every day. In doing so, we ask all members to report any bugs or glitches as soon as they are found; if tampered with after, a permanent ban will be issued.

• a. Boss manipulation (safe spotting) is the flagrant act of maneuvering a boss into a position where it cannot properly perform its functions and/or mechanics. The usage of safe spot methods not available on Oldschool Runescape will not be tolerated on Alora. Wrongdoers will serve one hour in jail, followed by 5 hours in jail, with the ending result being a permanent ban.
 
 

12. Gambling/Scams/Refunds (Disconnects, Donations, etc.)

• a. Scammers will be punished severely with a permanent ban on their first offense, followed up by an IP-ban on their second offense. Scammed members will not be refunded because we provide effective methods to avoid being scammed, such as using a middleman (server support, moderator, administrator, etc.). Please note that we do not accept photo-reports of members being scammed. One must provide video evidence, or it will not be handled.

• b. Disconnections will not be refunded.

13. Player versus Player (PvP)

Alora is not held responsible for members who have lost, disconnected, etc., while in the wilderness. The wilderness, or 'No man's land', if you will, for the most part, has no restrictions; hence why it can be referred to as 'No man's land'. However, we do have a few rules:

• a. PvP-Farming: Designed as a system to reward PKers, any attempts to abuse this through arranged/paid-for kills will be punished - on a case by case basis. The first offense will receive a 7-day ban & wipe of the estimated wealth gained, the second offense will result in a permanent ban & any further transgressions will result in an IP-ban. Note: We reserve the right to change the severity of our given punishments based on the severity of a case.

• c. Attacking another player while you only have 1 item or essentially no valuable risk with the intent to negatively affect another player's experience in the wilderness is against the rules and will not be tolerated, However if you recieve pkp from a kill, we do not deem the offence as 1 iteming or no valuable risk therefor the rule is not in effect.. (ex. Using a ZGS and constantly returning to a specific area or person and harassing the player.) This rule is applied to the entirety of PvP across Alora.
However, certain areas of PvP will follow specific rules. While in Edgeville and ::edgepvp, the act of griefing fights will not be allowed. (ex. Walking over players constantly or placing items such as cannons down.)

Pjing/Rushing is allowed; But if reported with sufficient evidence of being an ongoing issue and considered harassment, it will be dealt with by staff discretion.

First offenders will receive a 5-hour jail followed by a 24-hour ban, increasing to a 7-day ban, and finally, a permanent ban.

We strive to maintain an honorable environment. Anything that brings an unfair advantage will not be tolerated (see rule 8). VPN voting goes against many of the Top-lists terms of service, which can result in the termination of Alora from the Top-lists. Those who fail to comply with this rule will first receive a 24-hour ban with a vote book wipe (*), followed by a 48-hour ban with a vote book wipe (*) issued to all accounts involved, followed by a permanent ban, and finally, an IP-ban.

Terms of Service Agreement

By being on the forums and server, you understand that you are responsible for your own actions. You understand that the rules stated above will be enforced at all times, and the administration reserves the right to alter any of the statements above as they see fit. We have the authority to do what we want with your account, as it is our property and you are merely playing on it. You understand that when a rule is broken, your account will be dealt with accordingly and as fairly as possible.

You hereby agree that by registering on these forums, you know that your contract with Alora.io also correlates to the server and any service that is owned by us. You understand that because Alora is associated with US and Netherlands that both the Electronic Signatures in Global and International Commerce Act (ESGICA) and Directive 1999/93/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council laws are in effect within this community and failure to follow these rules will result in permanent removal from the community.

Here are a list of suggestions I had in mind: (Feel free to support/reject some and give feedback)

1. Fix Vengeance delay. There is like a 2-tick delay between when you click venge and when its effect begins.

2. Add bonus damage % to equipment stats. In OSRS, the bonus damage % is in the stats interface. For ex: Items like Ancestral and occult boost your magic damage %, not just your offensive magic stat.

3. Fix/Update the NPC Drop Table. Some people have been saying that the Corp drop table is inaccurate. Also, there is no Raids drop table.

4. After a raid, stats should be reset. Due to the overload in raids, I exit a raid with lvl 120 attack, str, def, range, magic.

5. Make magic give better dps than range/melee against such bosses as: Kraken, Barrows melee brothers, Zulrah range/melee phases.

6. Have a daily Automated PvP Tournament with random themes such as Dh pking, Nhing, Bridding, etc., that you can enter for free and that gives everyone the same default setup (temporary items that disappear outside the arena), so you enter it without anything worn or in inv. The tournament will be 1v1s only and will be a complete measure of skill alone, as opposed to tournaments won due to teaming, better gear, piling, etc. Rewards can be anything. If this becomes automated, this should not require an event manager to be more loaded with work. A chat yell message would say something like "Type ;;tournament to register for tournament." "Hybrid Tournament begins in 5 minutes." It then auto-matches randomly players together to 1v1 each other.

7. Make it possible to buy construction supplies in bulk, noted, from the construction npc.

8. Make a yell announcement when a player achieves finishes their achievement diary, accomplishes 1,2,3,4 billion total xp, achieves completionist.

9. Make regular max cape possess the effects of other max capes on Alora, such as cooking cape, range cape.

10. Allow the magic skillcape to give you 5 spellbook swaps daily (like in OSRS), which would allow pkers to Teleblock and swap into ancients right after.

11. Can at least some raids rewards be only achieved through raids itself? Getting prayer scrolls from donor store and raids items from super mystery boxes undervalues the rewards from the highest level of PvM in Alora. It's not good making as much (or even less) money per hour doing Bandos as doing Raids. This discourages people from doing raids and makes it so that there is only one raid team running a raid once every few hours.

12. Add diary achievements (or donor reward) that lets you get noted bones from Dagganoth kings, or wilderness dragons; that lets you get noted bars from metal dragons.

13. Make Veracs Best-in-slot against Venenatis and other wildy bosses, and maybe improve their drop tables accordingly, if necessary.

14. Make slayer helm bonus and slayer exp rewards be granted upon fighting all Inferno monsters during Zuk task and on all fight caves monster during Jad task. This is what is done in OSRS. Otherwise, slayer helmet is almost useless during those minigames.

15. When clicking on "Items Kept on Death," add a chat message that tells you which items you have will be sent to the untradeable store if you die in wildy or out of wildy. This minimizes confusion, especially concerning imbued rings (which you keep upon death outside wildy, but lose inside wildy.

16. Make the "save preset" or "last preset" options work in duel arena.

17. Add a separate "preserve" prayer scroll to the raids rewards, as that prayer costs only like 4k in OSRS to unlock, but costs as much as it does to unlock Rigour in Alora.

18. Make it possible to unnote bones in the pOH using the servant. Before Construction, the bank was right next to the altar. With Construction, banking has become much more tedious and far. This will give an advantage to those who build their own guilded altar, as they would be the only ones capable of utilizing the servant.

19. Make the twisted bow be best-in-slot weapon against other bosses outside of raids, such as Bandos or Sara Boss.

20. Revitalize (or add, not sure if it even works) Castle Wars by giving it random chance rewards, such as random chance at a silver key, or bloody key, or very rare chance at super mystery box to winning team players. This would give rich players a fun thing to do with their wealth, rather than to just stake their banks and quit, and would give poor players another incentive to try to get better gear so they do better in the minigame. (However, this would need some sort of check to prevent players from just making games filled with random alt accounts to farm rewards.

Hey guys,

This weeks update features plenty of new wilderness content, including the Revenant caves and the Mage Arena II mini-quest! You’ll be able to unlock those cool new imbued god capes, or explore the Revenant caves in pursuit of profit or bloody keys. It’s also officially December, and that means Christmas is right around the corner! As always, we’ll be working on a Christmas event for all of you to enjoy over the holidays.

• Bloody key update:
  • Similarly to emblems, bloody keys can no longer be protected on death. They will always be dropped on the ground.
    • This makes things more interesting if a player with no risk ( items and not skulled) manages to pick up a key in the wilderness, as the looter is still at risk of losing their key.
  • Tradable:
    • Considering the previous mechanic (where you can obtain bloody keys by killing a player), it only makes sense that these keys become tradable.
  • Bloody key risk:
    • A value of 500,000 has been given to each key to increase your risked wealth (or your victim’s) for PKP calculation purposes.
• Mage Arena II:
  • Kolodion has a new challenge for those powerful enough to participate — players with level 75 Magic can embark on a new mini-quest by visiting the Mage Arena.
    • You’ll be tasked with finding and defeating God demons that are hidden throughout the wilderness, with the help of an enchanted symbol which will help you locate them.
      • The locations of these demons often changes, and anyone in the wilderness carrying the enchanted symbol will be notified of this change. Refer to the chart below for approximate possible spawn locations:
        • https://vignette.wik...=20171124042004 
    • After defeating all 3 Demons(Light, Darkness and Balance), you’ll be able to upgrade your God cape to an Imbued God cape which provides the best bonuses of all 3 regular God capes.
      • Note: You’ll have to use the specific spell for that god:
        • Demon of Light — Saradomin Strike
        • Demon of Darkness — Flames of Zamorak
        • Demon of Balance — Claws of Guthix
      • The demons are very powerful. They can hit up to 43, can use Ice barrage to freeze you, and can even tele-block you for 1 minute.
      • You can also use a Twisted bow on these demons. Any other spell/weapon will prove to be nearly impossible at harming these demons.
  • With this new quest, you won’t be able to purchase/wear the Quest cape until it is completed.
  • Imbued capes:
    • You can convert your Imbued god capes to Imbued Max capes by using the cape on a max cape. 
• God spell changes:
  • You are no longer required to wear god capes to cast god spells. Only the staff for each respective spell.
• Miscellaneous:
  • Fixed a Herblore bug where you could not see the error message stating your level is too low to make a potion.
  • Staff update:
    • ::giverandom will no longer work on staff members.
• Revenants cave:
  • A new wilderness cave has been uncovered! Spanning between wilderness levels 17 and 40, this multi-combat cave is home to dangerous Revenants with some interesting rewards for those who are brave enough to enter.
    • The cave is large and contains many normal NPCs such as Hellhounds, dragons, demons and more, but venture deeper into the cave and you will find an area haunted by Revenants waiting to claim lives.
  • Entrances:
    • Two entrances exist in the wilderness:
      • 1. Level 17 Wilderness, slightly north-east of the Dark Warrior’s Fortress.
        • Can be reached by way of Revenant teleport scroll
      • 2. Level 40 Wilderness, slightly south-east of the Lava Maze.
  • Revenants:
    • Revenants are dangerous enemies that can attack with all three combat styles.
      • They also have the ability to heal themselves at low health, as well as being able to freeze their opponents. These are dangerous enemies and should be treated as such!
      • Salve amulets (both the regular and (e) version) will provide Attack/Strength boosts against these creatures (15/20% respectively), as they are indeed undead.
  • Shortcuts:
    • The dungeon is filled with shortcuts to get around more quickly and to make for escapes. These shortcuts all required higher Agility levels, ranging from level 65 to 89.
  • Drops:
    • Bloody key:
      • Unlike the OSRS revenants, Alora’s revenants have a chance at dropping a full bloody key! Heightening the rewards for these creatures, as well as the risk. Remember, keys will always drop on death if you are killed.
    • Revenant teleport scroll:
      • A scroll which teleports you to the level 17 Wilderness entrance.
    • Revenant ether:
      • Used to charge the Bracelet of Ethereum. Tradable.
    • Bracelet of ethereum:
      • A bracelet which can be charged with Revenant ether (can hold up to 16,000 charges) and protects you from damage from revenants while equipped. (1 charge = 1 attack) Tradable.
    • Ancient emblems/totems/statuettes:
      • These ancient artifacts can be exchanged with the Revenant Cave Emblem trader, who roams around the northern part of the Revenants cave, for (all halved on Classic mode):
        • Emblem: 2.5m
        • Totem: 5m
        • Statuette: 10m
    • Ancient crystal:
      • Can be used to create an Obelisk within a Superior garden of your Player-Owned House.
    • Other:
      • Dragon skirt, platelegs, dagger, longsword, 2h sword
      • Rune equipment
      • Noted battlestaffs
      • Noted supplies
      • Magic seeds
  • Slayer tasks:
    • Krystilia can now assign revenants as a Slayer task. Any revenant can be killed to satisfy this task.
• House update:
  • Obelisks can now be created in your Superior garden by using four Ancient crystals (Revenant drop) along with 4 Marble blocks.
    • You must have level 80 Construction to build this.
  • Grotesque Guardians display:
    • Using the Jar of Stone drop from Grotesque Guardians (and the other requirements), you can now set up a new Display case in your Achievement room!
• Client fix:
  • Some dungeon entrances were showing up on the minimap as battlestaff icons. These have been fixed and you should now see the dungeon icon with a blue arrow.

Enjoy :) Please report any bugs that you may come across.

Regards,

Omicron

So recently I've heard that quite a few scams have been occurring and nothing being done because of lack of proof. Hopefully this guide can ease this process.

First off, I want to start with the basic screenshot. Although for alot of things video proof is required. For some reports a simple screenshot can help get from point A to point B. I personally like to use the following program as it eases up most of the work effectively and efficiently.

LightShot is a very lightweight program that can be run on any PC no matter how old since it's size is very small. It has a lot of features that make it very useful for taking screenshots.

It's unfortunate we lost some of our men, especially our mainframe specialist. Welcome back and congratulations to those promoted. I'm sure they're well deserved and capable of the roles assigned.

Forever in our hearts Algalon
 

It would be nice to have the WG work as it does on 07, i made the misstake myself to spend about 1 hour trying to get a bronze defender before someone told me i could just buy a rune one. Support

Would love to see WG actually work the way it was intended to, Support.

Currently (from my point of view) the way you obtain a defender is somewhat confusing & silly. I guess it can be beneficial that there is an option to buy a Rune defender with tokens how-ever most users that join Alora on a daily basis aren't aware of the fact you can buy one. & when they do, they are confused as to why the Cylop's are still dropping the same defender they have just purchased. In my eyes, it should be exactly like Runescape. That way it would save confusion & not only that but it would be keeping it original as to how you go about getting defenders.
