It is your duty to report any errors or glitches immediately by contacting one of the administrators to get it fixed right away. Muttz does not stand for players abusing 'bugs'. This will only get your account confiscated or you will be severely punished.
Should you decide to sell something to a player on this site and you wish to get it back, they have every right to refuse your offer because the deal has been sealed. Muttz will not, in this case, refund or reimburse you in any way.
Even if you have donated or paid for an upgraded account, moderators and administrators still have the right to ban/freeze/restrict/fine your account. Be sure to note that there will be no refunds under any circumstances on donations and we are also not responsible for lost donations.
Anyone found with more than 1 account will have their extra accounts frozen, if you already have one account you may not have a shared account. We will not hesitate to ban all your accounts if deemed necessary. Remember, it's one account per person.
Account-sharing, knowing the username and password to an account, is discouraged but tolerated. Muttz will in no way be held responsible for stolen possessions including the account itself if this happens. This is a risk you're taking, we strongly advise you not to share accounts.
Muttz items or currency cannot be sold for real life currency. Muttz currency may be traded for other website currency, providing that the other website allows such trading. Again, in this case, Muttz will not oversee such transactions, not be held responsible for stolen property and will not refund any such possessions.
Please note that privileges are privileges. Not rights. They can be taken away at any time for any reason without explanation being necessary.
Muttz reserves the right to shut down temporarily, shut down permanently or be sold at any given time without the consent or notice of its players for any reason.
