Exploiting Bugs

Players are required not to exploit any bugs or glitches they encounter in the game. Should you come across a bug or glitch, we urge you to report it directly to the s0urce.io developers.
Discovering a bug or glitch does not give you the green light to misuse it.
We assure you that finding a bug or glitch and reporting it to us, without further exploitation, will not lead to a ban. However, repeated exploitation of a glitch, especially one that provides an unfair advantage or gain over others, will result in a ban.
We also advise against disclosing details of the glitch to other players, whether through in-game conversations, creating instructional content, or any form of dissemination.
Urging others to exploit a glitch, or spreading information about it, is considered as serious as exploiting the glitch yourself and may also lead to a ban.
