Ruleset

This is an old revision of the document!

1. Be Mature.

If Edgelording / Shitposting is your jam, we are probably not the server for you.

2. No Offensive Names/Photos.

3. Be Respectful To Others.

No Bullying, Discrimination, Harassment or other disrespectful activity will be tolerated.

4. Don't Dominate The Channels.

5. Topics should be contained to correct channels.

6. No Unnecessary Pings.

7. No Deliberately Creating Drama.

8. Extensive complaining about server features is not tolerated.

Constructive criticism of our server is welcome, but pejoratives / extensive complaining about systems that you do not like is not. If you have a suggestion on how we can improve, create a thread in the suggestions channel.

9. Ask for permission before advertising anything.

1. Respect the Staff and obey their requests.

2. No accusations of rule breaking or discussing player reports in public channels.

Accusations of player rule breaches or admins abusing their power should be made exclusively in a ⁠player report ticket.

3. Arguing a punishment will result in an extension of that punishment.

4. Do not exploit 'loopholes' in the rules.

If you are judged to be intentionally circumventing the obvious intention of a rule, you will likely receive a punishment. Play it safe, and ask an admin if unsure (and receive an amnesty).

1. Keep RP believable and sensible. We all want to enjoy the server.

2. Keep certain topics out of our server, will leave it to you to judge.

Report anything too extreme. If someone isn't enjoying the RP, there's a chance there's a reason.

3. Create a backstory for your character. Find a place for them in this world!

1. Common Sense! If something sounds bad it probably is.

An RP server can have complex scenarios where a rule may or may not apply. Check with an admin if you're not sure, and use your common sense.

2. Exploiting, Cheating, and Abusing mechanics are all not tolerated.

If you find a way to exploit a GURP gameplay feature, report it rather than abusing it.

1. Ghosting: You may not log out in another player's base and later log back in to raid it.

2. Initiations and Hostile Actions: All hostile actions and initiations must be made clear and logical to all parties involved.

Reasons for hostile actions must be clear and there always be a way to resolve a situation without unwarranted death (if possible).

3. Self-Defense and Kill Rights: If your life is at risk or you are subject to hostile actions, you may defend yourself.

Kill Rights allow for actions based on the situation:

Combat Logging: Combat logging to avoid fights is prohibited. If you must leave, please sort it out OOC with the other party.

4. Hostage Rules: If you capture someone, make sure they are well looked after to avoid any pointless death.

- The point of capture is to make sure a hostile situation can be resolved without death.
- However this is null and void if:
- Non-compliance with repeated demands or escape attempts.
- Posing a direct threat, such as picking up a weapon when forbidden.
- Not valuing their life, like repeated insults or defiance.
- Their faction refuses to negotiate or attacks the captors.
- Negotiation demands are unmet after a reasonable time.

Depending on the capture arrangement and situation. Admins must be notified when an individual is captured. We'll provide a rough timeframe you can maintain them for before being forced to release.

5. Item Searches: If other players search you, you must surrender all items visible on your character.

Concealing items or creating imaginary hidden items is not allowed.

6. Base Raiding: Base Raiding must be done via doors and entrance ways.

Using exploititive methods to gain entry to bases or sneak ways into bases ruins the fun of building proper RP bases and structures. Likewise, doors should all be accessible and properly placed.

1. Bases are defined by a proper structure with walls and established setting. Tents, etc do not count.

2. Zoning.

Please build atleast 300m away from military zones. It is important we do not block important loot spawns.
Do NOT build on or over main roads.
Do not build in hospitals, police stations or areas which have vital loot to others who wish to explore.

3. Base locations can be anywhere. However placing a territory flag is restricted to outwith main vital hubs/cities.

I.E you cannot place a territory flag in Vorkuta. Please ask if unsure.

4. No Spamming ridiculous amount of doors to storage areas.

5. Storage

Due to our player count. A maximum of containers allowed in a base is > 30 < please take this seriously. If lag exists this will be first to be adjusted.
2 Vehicles per person max.

6. Engineering

7. Please do not abuse the build mechanics in any manner.

Do not have floating structures, do not have inaccessible storage areas etc.

Each zone is considered a full on PVP-Zone.

Take extra care when entering or leaving. You can of course still engage in RP in those zones, just be aware that the risk is much higher.

A full map for S0 can be found on our Discord, a S1 map will be found instead of this footnote once released.
