IC - In-character
OOC - Out of Character
S2K - Shoot to kill
S2M - Shoot to miss
NLR - New life rule
PK - Permanent kill
1. NLR - When you die, a new life begins and you forget everything that has happened in the last 30 minutes or if in combat and you die, you forget everything about that combat scenario and your character was not ICly involved. You can also not return to that place or join in with the scenario again until it is over. There will sometimes be exceptions made during events.
1b. Perma Kill - A PK(Permenant Kill) is where a character in the server is unplayable permenantly. This usually occurs when a character dies. Getting a PK can occur for a number of reasons:
These reasons may be avoided in certain situations such as a server event.
2. No Metagaming - Using OOC information ICly or vice versa.
3. No RDM (Random death match) - Killing someone for no valid reason.
3b. S2K combat (Shoot to kill) - s2k combat only applies to long range firefights(such as firefights with a vortigaunt beam, crossbow, mp7 etc). In s2k the purpose is to kill another character. These actions do not involve /mes to fire your weapons however medical roleplay and pain roleplay is still required. /mes are still allowed, however a player does not need to wait for you to finish your /me to fire at you. To initiate s2k, a player must /me to begin with, such as "Billy Slorp slings out his MP7a1 and fires at the cps in the plaza". If you are being fired at YOU DO NOT NEED TO REPLY WITH A /me. s2k will initiate as soon as the first bullet is fired.
3c. Raids - Raids are usually hosted by civil protection units. This can be on your apartment, the d4 zone or other areas of the map. Raids are not an exemption to break rules such as RDM or failrp, however in situations where a citizen is in a condemned zone civil protection are permitted to KILL with APPROPRIATE roleplay. Roleplay in raids accounts to rule 3b.
4. No Powergaming - Forcing someone to abide by your /me or /it without them getting a chance to RP otherwise.
Example of powergame - "Billy Slorp grabs the cp and steals his gun and says "haha I've got your gun!"
Example of correct roleplay - "Billy Slorp attempts to grab the cps gun."
5. No Metabaiting - Stating anything in OOC that tells others about an event that they would not know ICly. For Example: ''[OOC] Billy Slorp: Hey look at those cool CPs! They're going into the sewers!"
6. No Minging - Minging is also known as trolling, these are the different types of minging:
7. No Changing description - Changing your description greatly after creating your character. E.g: Changing the colour of your eyes because someone likes that colour more.

8b. No Advertising sexual images/sites - Posting any images or videos containing sexual content.

10. No Exploiting - Finding a glitch or exploit in the game and using it to your advantage instead of reporting it. You will not receive punishment for not reporting it, but it would be greatly appreciated.
11. No Abusing Donator Features - If you pay for donation, this does not mean you can abuse any of the features you receive (Such as PET flag abuse) you can still be banned as a donator, without a refund.
12. No Posting Logs in OOC - Logs will only be used by staff members when dealing with PKs or other promblems. Both users AND staff should not be posting logs in OOC. Some exceptions can be made.
13. No Disrespecting others - Insulting or mocking users and Staff members is not tollerated.
14. No Shot-Cop - This is where (as a citizen) you run out and attack a civil protection unit for no valid IC reason. This rule also follows on with 18. and 19.
15. No Prop killing - Killing another player with a prop or object that would not ICly class as a weapon.
16. Pain-RP - You must do /mes of being in pain when injured. The detail of your injuries will depend on your health status. If you're on less than half your health, then you are not ICly fit to carry on fighting.
17. Med-RP - You must do /mes when you are injured of healing yourself. If you have a health vial or med-kit, the /me does not have to be as long, but a bandage or lower class piece of medical equipment has to have more RP.
18. Fear RP - In certain situations you will be expected to use fear RP. This means that your character must roleplay as scared and will usually co-operate if under pressure, such as being at gun-point.
19. No going Rambo - If you are a single person, and you begin an attack on a group of others, civil protection and rebels included then this will count as going 'rambo'. Never begin attacks alone, your character would be terrified.
20. Rules about ERP - ERP stands for 'Erotic Roleplay' and this means any kind of sexual contact with your character or another character. The only circumstances you can take part in ERP are:
21. No Rape RP - Rape is a disgusting part of the real world and shouldn't be re-acted in a game.
22. Token Transferring - Do NOT transfer tokens from one character to another. Even a small amount will get you a ban.
- Donators are not exempt from this rule. Do not use your secret container to store tokens, as it will be suspected that you will collect the tokens on a different character.

23. No Abusing Whitelists - When you are given a whitelist, you are entrusted with a major role on the server, if you violate this trust in any way then you shall most likely receive a large ban, a dewhitelist and a BLACKLIST from the faction, meaning that you can never be a part of the faction again.
24. Racism - Any OOC racism seen on our server will get you a warn/kick. If you continue afterwards then you will receive a ban. IC racism is permitted if it is taken seriously/your character has a reason for it.
25. Mugging - You cannot mug another citizen for personal greed. If you are caught doing so, the situation will be voided and a possible further punishment may take place. Only mug a citizen if you have a reason to do so, such as: They stole something from you; or they killed a friend of yours.
25b. Mugging a Civil Protection unit - You are only permitted to attempt to rob a Civil Protection unit if their are AT-LEAST three ARMED Civil Protection units on the server at the time. This means that there must be three units that are ranks i4, i3, i2, i1, or RL online. i5's are NOT armed units.
And use common sense: You cannot Mug an Overwatch Unit/OTA.
When mugging a Civil Protection unit, to take the unit's armour they do five /mes of them taking off five different pieces of their uniform. In any order, they must remove their "Helmet hood and Gasmask", their "Kevlar Vest and undershirt", their "Slacks", their "Combat boots", and their "gloves and belt".
Once they have done this, you are free to take the uniform. You WILL receive a PK and a ban if you take the uniform prematurely for any reason. If you are found out before they have done all the /mes, tough luck. It is also a rule that Civil Protection units can take no longer than 20 seconds on each /me.
If you feel an admin has banned you with a non valid reason, please apply your ban on the forum homepage.
