User Conduct
Clients are not authorized to transmit unlawful, threatening, profane, pornographic, offensive, abusive, obscene, indecent or otherwise objectionable information of any kind via voice or any other means.

Rental and Game Server

In the context of this document ‘server’ means single game process.

Clients are permitted to run one game process on their server. We will include the necessary files for the chosen games upon completion of an order. The user is responsible for ensuring that they have permission to use any mods or maps used on their server. The server may not be used for commercial purposes.

You are allowed to FTP mods and maps providing they meet the requirements below.

ClanHost Australia may install third party modifications within reason. No guarantee is made as to the stability of these mods. ClanHost Australia make no guarantee any third party mod will work on our systems. ClanHost Australia strictly prohibits third party mods that use excessive resources.

Excessive amounts of resources includes but is not limited to:
CPU, RAM, Disk and Bandwidth usage
Note: Fair usage amounts are equated by examining the average usage for the same product / service type.

All game servers are setup with default out of the box settings, the only changes we make are the game ports. These ports must remain the same throughout your hosting with us.

We base our prices on Memory, Disk and CPU usage. We use the default starting map/planet/world, which should give you a high player count without reaching the memory limit. Changing/adding maps or using additional planets which create multiple processes using higher amounts of memory will most likely require you to upgrade your service.

The server may not be named offensively, in a way that reflects a commercial organization or to deliberately antagonize. The server must have all anti-cheat software turned on. ClanHost Australia believe in fair play we do not host servers for cheaters.

Game servers may not be used to host files, downloads or any web content, this includes the uploading of any files, images or software not directly associated with the running of the game processes. Any such abuse of a server will result in service being suspended and the forfeit of outstanding rental payments.

Clients will have one week notice before the end of their rental in which to renew their contract before their server is reallocated. Hence you will have the option to keep your server without any interruption to service.

ClanHost Australia provide you full FTP access to your game server files, the ability to Start/Stop/Update/Fresh Install your server. We provide you with a working server with the default server configuration files. Modify these files at your own risk. Failure to correctly configure these files may result in the server not functioning correctly. For more information on how to configure a server please read the user guide, forums or WIKI supplied by the games creator/manufacture.

We DO NOT backup your game server, however using the right tools you have access to back it up yourself. If you require a restore, contact us and we may have one on record.

ClanHost staff may enter your server at any time password protected or not. This allows the staff to check how well the server is running.

You may not increase the player limits on your server (this includes spectators) without the prior permission of ClanHost Australia and payment of the difference in rental prices. We are unable to offer refunds to clans who wish to reduce player numbers for any reason. Slot are now UNLIMITED.
