Rules


General Community Policy

  1. Server language

    Server language is primarily English

  2. Mic and mic abuse

    We want crystal-clear communication, so make sure your microphone and audio processing equipment are of decent standards. No ambient sounds, and try to reduce background noise!

  3. Stay in character

    If you spot someone rule-breaking during an in-game scene, stay in character until it's over. Once the scene is over, please make a report in city or open a ticket in discord. No breaking character and going OOC!

  4. Suicidal RP

    NO self-harm or suicide roleplay. This type of roleplay will lead to a permanent ban.


General Community Rules

  1. RDM (Random Deathmatch)

    Attacking or killing other players without a legit in-character reason is not acceptable. No running people over, shooting without cause, or using explosives to harm others. Airdrops are an exception, these places are shoot on sight within the redzone, any situation outside of a redzone needs to have a valid reason.

  2. VDM (Vehicle Deathmatch)

    VDM (Vehicle Deathmatch) is a bannable offense. Please drive reasonably, No ramming, purposefully blocking paths, or using vehicles as weapons.

  3. Metagaming

    Metagaming is NEVER ACCEPTABLE! Absolutely no use of out-of-character knowledge can be used in-game. That means Discord, Twitch, or any other communication methods to get an unfair advantage. Your character only knows what they've learned in-game and nowhere else. META GAMING IS AN PERMANENT BAN!

  4. Powergaming

    Don't use flaws of in-game mechanics for a character advantage or personal gain. Mechanic abuse or taking advantage of systems is an immediate ban.

  5. Offline Raiding

    If you have a conflict with a team or player, there has to be a reasonable cause, and the players must be online to be raided. Here is the exception: If you find a base that is clearly falling apart due to negligence and lack of upkeep (exterior walls, and interior walls missing), it's the player's responsibility to monitor that base for 24 hours to ensure there has been no effort to rebuild. Once that is verified, the base is open to be raided.

    • Wall Defence - Big walls are used as a defense for a base but do not determine if the base is raidable. If a big wall is missing and the main building structure is still intact, this does not mean the base is decaying.

    • Housing Valuable Assets - or a point of interest (lootable items, batteries, buildings with items inside) and you are protecting it within your base, this is considered holding down valuable areas, which means you can be raided at any time!

    • Offline Raiding - Base raiding will be allowed IF and WHEN there is an actual story or RP driven purpose for the raid. If the person/group you are raiding is currently offline/asleep you are NOT allowed to start the raid until it is clear that both parties are available. This isn't Rust, Let's have fun and not grief each other.

  6. Exploiting/Cheating/Hacking

    No exploiting or cheating. No hacks, mods, glitches, or taking advantage of game mechanics. If you are found using any exploit or 3rd party software you will be immediately removed from the community. If you find a bug or exploit, report it through discord or make a report in city.

  7. Value of life/Fear RP

    If someone is waving a weapon at you, or you're outnumbered, roleplay fear when put in the situation. A gun to the face is no joke, take it serious.

  8. Groups/gangs/crews

    During aggressive scenes or hunting parties, the maximum number of people in your crew is six members. You can have as many members as you want in your groups/gangs/crew, but only six can go all out during aggressive hunting parties. When defending your gang/crew compound all available members can defend, but only six can go out hunting/looting.

  9. Roleplay before gunplay

    We're all about those deep, meaningful interactions. Save the shootouts and violence for a storyline. Connect with your fellow players and let the story unfold! Conflict RP happens, but don't go blasting other players without a valid reason or to avoid roleplay.

  10. Roleplay out those injuries

    When your character gets hurt, make it count! Roleplay out those injuries. Consider the severity and how it realistically affects your character. For serious injuries like gunshot wounds, show the struggle, pain, and seek medical help from other players. if you get hurt RP IT OUT.

  11. Respect is key

    Engage in realistic and immersive roleplay at all times. Stay in-character, speak the language, and follow the server's lore and setting. If you're in an active roleplay scene, stick with it unless it's a real OOC emergency. When in doubt, ask a staff member or consult the server's documentation.

  12. Pocket wiping

    No pocket wiping! During a robbery or criminal activity. If you gun someone down in a PVP zone, you can choose the items you want out of their bag that was used in that conflict. OR you can steal someone's bag, but you can expect it to happen right back to you! Treat looting, how you would like to be looted.

  13. Drive realistically

    Drive realistically, especially during car chases. Consider the type of car you're in and how it would actually perform in certain situations. No crazy jumps and unrealistic maneuvers. We're all about realism while driving a vehicle!

  14. Serial killer RP

    Serial killer RP is a no-go. We're all about serious and realistic roleplay, not going on murder sprees.

  15. Toxic behavior

    Toxic behavior is not acceptable and is a bannable offense. Show respect to your fellow players and staff members. No hate speech, trolling, or any other toxic behavior. We're all about good energy and zero tolerance for harassment or discrimination. Toxic behavior also includes forms of spawn camping, base camping, repeated PVP to the same target in a short window. THIS IS A BANNABLE OFFENSE

  16. ERP (erotic roleplay)

    No ERP (erotic roleplay) IT'S NOT ALLOWED. Keep it clean and appropriate for all players. Violation of this rule comes with severe consequences, including permanent bans. If you are a part of something that makes you uncomfortable, please bring it to STAFF!

  17. Staff decisions

    Remember, staff decisions are the final word. If they make a call, respect it and follow through. If you disagree, there's an appeal process in place.

  18. Vehicle Carrying / Escorting

    You can only use as many seats as the vehicle is equipped with. No carrying players in passenger seats or on bikes. The only exception to carrying a player on a bike is if they are downed and need serious medical treatment. If the player can walk, crawl, or jump, there should be no carrying or escorting.

  19. Local Vehicles

    If you find a local car, helicopter, airplane, or anything in between, you are not allowed to drive or fly that vehicle. Please report the vehicles found.

  20. RED ZONES

    Red Zones are conflict zones that DO NOT require any type of engagement. Red zones are indicated on the map of the specific zone where this type of conflict happens. These zones are unsafe, and you enter at your own risk! This includes: airdrop zones, pvp zones (redzones) - These locations will also be identified on the map with a bright red circle!

  21. Crafting

    craft what you need and do not grind a specific item to gain rep and experience. BUILD AND CRAFT AS NEEDED! (This is monitored by staff.)

  22. FAIL RP

    If a player puts in effort to create RP, please reciprocate the interaction. This is an RP server first, not a 100K or die...

  23. Downed/New Life

    If a player is downed by a zombie or accidental death (i.e. starving, falling down a cliff, etc..) and they are not in active conflict or combat and they have to use the revive option, their memories are in tact and can return to try and find their belongings ie vehicle, bike... If a player is downed while in a RP or PvP conflict, whether it be a shootout or melee combat, if that person is downed and not treated for their wounds, that person will not remember anything after using the revive option.
