Code of Conduct

Last updated: September 2026

NeedOrGreed.GG is a community notice board where players find each other and arrange their own in-game trades. It works because members can trust who they are dealing with. This Code of Conduct sets out what is expected of every member and what happens when those expectations are not met.

This Code forms part of, and is enforceable under, the Terms & Conditions.

1. Expected Conduct

Members shall:

Describe items, offers and trade terms honestly and accurately
Honour the terms of a trade once both parties have agreed to them
Confirm completed trades truthfully in the Sales tab
Leave reviews that reflect an actual trade experience
Treat other members with basic respect, including in disagreements
Comply with the End User Licence Agreement of any game they play

2. Prohibited Conduct

The following are prohibited on NeedOrGreed.GG. This list is indicative, not exhaustive.

2a. Fraud & Deception

Scamming, defrauding, or attempting to defraud another member
Misrepresenting an item, its stats, its condition, or what is being offered
Failing to deliver an agreed trade, or altering terms after agreement
Impersonating another member, NeedOrGreed.GG staff, or a game publisher
Falsely confirming a trade that did not take place
Phishing, or soliciting account credentials, one-time codes, or personal data from other members

2b. Platform & NGGold Abuse

Operating multiple accounts, including to inflate reputation, evade enforcement, or claim bonuses more than once
Manipulating reputation, reviews, Price Check votes, or bump ordering
Using NGGold transfers to conduct real-money trading, exchange external value, or operate a payment, exchange, or remittance service
Circular or structured transfers intended to disguise the source or purpose of NGGold movement
Attempting to exploit, probe, reverse-engineer, or circumvent platform systems, security controls, or rate limits
Automated scraping, bulk data collection, or bot-driven posting

2c. Harassment & Harmful Content

Bullying, threatening, harassing, or intimidating another member
Hate speech, discriminatory language, or targeted abuse
Doxxing, or publishing another person's personal information without consent
Coordinated harassment, brigading, or encouraging others to harass
Repeated unwanted contact after being asked to stop
Sexual content, content involving minors, or content promoting self-harm or violence

2d. Illegal & Off-Platform Activity

Money laundering, terrorism financing, or any activity intended to disguise the proceeds of crime
Trading stolen accounts, stolen items, or items obtained through unauthorised access
Selling or trading game accounts
Any activity unlawful under Australian law or the law applicable to the member

3. Reporting

Any member may report a listing, comment, or account using the in-platform report function. Where a trade has gone wrong, either party may raise a dispute from the Sales tab in Inbox, which submits the trade record and its message thread to staff for review.

Reports are reviewed by NeedOrGreed.GG staff. Submitting knowingly false or malicious reports is itself a breach of this Code.

4. Enforcement

NeedOrGreed.GG may take any of the following actions where it forms the view, acting reasonably, that this Code has been breached:

Warning — a formal notice recorded against the account.

Content removal — removal of listings, comments, reviews, or images.

Feature restriction — loss of access to posting, offers, transfers, or board proposal rights.

Suspension — temporary loss of account access.

Permanent ban — permanent termination of the account.

Enforcement action is not required to follow this order. NeedOrGreed.GG may proceed directly to suspension or permanent ban where the conduct is serious, where there is a risk to other members, or where the member has breached this Code previously.

5. NGGold Held by Actioned Accounts

NeedOrGreed.GG reserves the right to suspend, restrict, block, or permanently ban any account it believes on reasonable grounds has breached this Code of Conduct or the Terms & Conditions, regardless of the NGGold balance held in that account. NGGold is a revocable licence to use platform credit, not property of the member. A balance of any size does not exempt an account from enforcement, delay enforcement, or create an entitlement to continued access.

NGGold balances held by suspended or permanently banned accounts are forfeited and are not refundable, transferable, or convertible to money or any other value. Where NGGold was obtained through, or used in furtherance of, a breach of this Code, it may be removed from the account irrespective of how it was acquired.

Nothing in this section limits any right a consumer has under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded.

6. Appeals

A member subject to suspension or permanent ban may appeal once, in writing, to support@needorgreed.gg within 30 days of the action. An appeal should identify the account and set out why the member believes the decision was wrong. Appeals are reviewed by a staff member who was not responsible for the original decision where practicable. The outcome of an appeal is final.

Enforcement action remains in effect while an appeal is being considered.

7. Records

Enforcement decisions, the grounds for them, and the identity of the reviewing staff member are recorded in an internal audit log. Records are retained in accordance with the Privacy Policy and the platform's AML/CTF record-keeping obligations.

8. Changes

This Code may be updated from time to time. Material changes will be notified through the platform. Continued use constitutes acceptance.
