I'm not sure what could be wrong with it either. I have been helping him get set up. I even sent him the 2 rules tables from my server to source in. So I know he has good tables. I really have no idea what could be going on :( To be 100% sure you have status 250 on your server. Open a command prompt. Type in:
cd\mysql\bin <enter>
mysql -u root <enter>
use eq; <enter> ( I believe thats what you told me your DB was named. If not change the eq to your DB name)
UPDATE account SET status=250 WHERE id='1'; <enter>
That should flag you 250 in the database. You can even do it while in game. After you do the SQL stuff, target yourself in game and type #flag, it should say refreshing your admin status. Then target yourself and type #gm on.
By now there is no reason at all for the #rules command not to work that I can see. So after making sure you are flagged 250 and doing #gm on to yourself. Try it again and let me know how it goes for you.
Hope this helps
