NTE enforces a very strict ban policy. The following actions will be penalized:
Permanent Ban:
- Using hacks, speed hacks, or cheat tools
- Exploiting bugs to duplicate resources (e.g., the gift system duplication exploit)
- Account trading/sharing
Long-term Ban:
- Distributing bug exploit tutorials (especially tied to creator incentive programs)
- Using mods to modify game files (documented case of 36,000-day ban)
- Using macros/scripts for automation
Notable Incidents:
- Gift system duplication bug at launch: 600+ accounts permanently banned
- A content creator who posted an exploit tutorial linked to the creator incentive program was banned for 100 years via the event system
- An overseas player received a 36,000-day ban for using mods
Mod Risk Warning:
- All mods are officially prohibited
- Even cosmetic mods carry ban risk
- Some players using .pak mods weren't immediately caught — this doesn't mean it's safe
- Recommendation: Do not use any mods; wait for official customization features
How to Stay Safe:
- Don't use third-party tools
- Report bugs to official support instead of exploiting them
- Don't share or sell your account
- Don't distribute exploit methods
