Server Rules & Codex
These rules exist to ensure the best roleplay experience for everyone. Ignorance of the rules is not an excuse.
General Rules
Respect All Players
Treat every player with respect. Harassment, racism, sexism, or any form of discrimination will result in an immediate permanent ban.
No Metagaming
Using out-of-character (OOC) information in roleplay is strictly forbidden. Your character only knows what they have learned in-game.
No Powergaming
Do not force actions on other players or perform unrealistic feats. Roleplay must be believable and fair to all parties.
Stay In Character
Remain in character at all times unless using designated OOC channels. Breaking character disrupts the immersion for everyone.
No Exploiting
Exploiting bugs, glitches, or any server vulnerabilities will result in a permanent ban. Report bugs through the Discord ticket system.
Roleplay Rules
Value Your Life (VDM/RDM)
Your character values their life. Do not engage in vehicle deathmatch (VDM) or random deathmatch (RDM). Every violent action must have a solid RP reason.
Fear RP
If someone has a weapon pointed at you at close range, you must comply. You cannot pull a weapon when one is already aimed at you.
New Life Rule (NLR)
After being revived by EMS or respawning, your character has no memory of the incident. You cannot return to the same location for 30 minutes.
Robbery Rules
Store robberies require at least 1 police officer online. Bank heists require at least 3. House robberies cannot exceed 2 players.
Hostage Rules
Hostages must be willing participants or RPd properly. You cannot hold someone hostage for more than 45 minutes without active RP.
Communication
Voice Chat
Use in-game voice for all in-character communication. Keep voice quality clear. Music or soundboards that disrupt RP are not allowed.
OOC Communication
OOC chat (/ooc) is for genuine out-of-character needs only. Do not use it to talk about RP situations or to gain advantages.
No Advertising
Advertising other servers, communities, or external services in any channel is strictly prohibited and results in an immediate permanent ban.
Police & EMS
Cop Baiting
Deliberately attempting to get police attention for the purpose of killing or robbing officers is strictly forbidden.
EMS Integrity
EMS must remain neutral at all times. They cannot participate in criminal activities while on duty. EMS vehicles are protected from attack.
Police RP Standards
Police must always offer the opportunity to surrender before using lethal force, unless in an active firefight. Corruption RP must be approved.
Technical Rules
One Account Per Player
Each person may only have one account. Multi-accounting to evade bans or gain advantages is grounds for a permanent ban on all accounts.
Modifications
No client-side modifications that give unfair advantages. Visual-only mods (ENB, texture packs) are allowed. Any cheat software results in a permanent ban.
Stream Sniping
Intentionally watching a streamer to gain RP information is considered metagaming and is strictly prohibited.
AFK Policy
Do not AFK in-game to hold a server slot. Players AFK for more than 15 minutes will be kicked to free up space for active players.
