Prop Abuse: No Prop Pushing - using your physgun to move players, other props or entities with your props. No Prop Surfing - physgunning a prop while you are still on it to move yourself into the air. No Prop Bridging - arranging your props in a way that allows you to enter previously off limits areas or other player's buildings. Ladders, lifts and stairs are all examples of this. No Prop Spamming - rapidly spawning unneeded props or entities in a short space of time to lag or crash the server. No Prop Bases - building bases consisting of props that are not attached to a map building. No Prop Blocking - using props to prevent other players from accessing you, a building or object by blocking an entrance. Garage doors and windows are an exception to this rule. You may not place any props inside a building you are raiding. However, you may place appropriate props outside of the building such as concrete barricades. You may not place props in or around the bank whatsoever. No Vehicles - You may not create/use any contraptions that impart movement upon a user . Please note: An admin has the right to remove your props if any of these rules are broken. Doors: The main rule rule for doors is that they must be accessible. This can be met by making them fading, or if it is hydraulic etc, including a keypad on both sides. This means 1 keypad each side, no more. Fading doors can be lockpicked so they do not require a keypad. When setting up a fading door, give it an appropriate automatic closing time. You are allowed just 1 fading door per map door or 2 fading doors at an open entrance. Hidden doors are allowed as long as there is a visible keypad to open it nearby. Despite other servers sharing a common rule that you may block one door if there is another way in, we do not allow this. All map doors and entrances must be accessible by either keypad or lockpick. Closing a door soon after it has been lockpicked or rammed, spamming a door shut or blocking the door from opening are all forms of door abuse. Please wait for a suitable moment to open or close your doors. New Life Rule (NLR): We have a slightly different form of NLR to most servers, so please read! NLR means that you forget what happened to you before you died. This means basing all of your actions from a new roleplay perspective. You may not return to where you die unless it is for a new roleplay reason or if it is your home/base. If this is the case, you must not interfere with whomever is there until they leave. This includes opening or closing fading doors, locking map doors, taking something, changing prices of objects such as microwaves or simply returning armed. Keep in mind that the intruder is still allowed to kill you if you re-enter. Police are allowed to return to a wanted person if they wanted them before they were killed. NLR is also void for Police who are returning to the Police Department during a raid or the Bank during a Vault raid. Chat: Excessive language towards any player or staff member on the server is not permitted though this does not mean you cannot swear at all. Using the occasional "fuck off" or "bastard" is acceptable but filling a sentence with profanities is not. For example "Fuck you fucking dickhead asshole cock sucking bitch!" Please do not feel threatened about using your mic. there is no age restriction on this server so, no matter how high your voice is, you have a right to do so. If anyone is making an issue of it, please report them to an admin. Though an admin can be wrong, you must accept what they say and follow their instructions. If you feel as though they have made a mistake, explain your opinion in a calm, respectful manner. Insulting and arguing with them will get you no-where and may lead them to punish you more severely than they previously would. Do not spam the chat, at all. This can get you muted without warning. Do not mic spam. Playing music, singing etc is fine in an unpopulated area or building as long as it is in good RP. Advertising any OOC servers, websites or any other content will result in an immediate permanent ban. Role-Play: Some of the rules above can be broken if it is considered good RP. Admins are the ones who decide what is good RP so please be prepared to explain your reasoning for breaking a rule. RDM (random death matching) is killing another player without a suitable RP reason. Do not do this. You may not mug the same person within 5 minutes of mugging them. This includes after they die. Metagaming is using no-RP information such as the leaderboards, out-of-character chat etc to gain an RP advantage. Do not do this. Kill lines (markings around the outside of your base in which you kill anyone who crosses)are not allowed, unless properly RP'd. If unsure, have an admin check them. Do not take an admins rank into consideration when dealing with them in RP situations. You can kill, arrest and steal from them as long as you have a suitable reason. Think about what you would and would not be allowed to do. If you are unsure, ask an admin. Job Abuse: Do not do another job's role. Whichever job you have, stick to the description. Anyone may steal loose objects that are laying about on the street so long as there is no violence involved. Do not briefly switch to a job to gain something such as ammo or guns, then switch back. Some jobs may not work or base together. Please take this into consideration when playing with friends. Do not act as an assassin/hitman. You can be demoted without warning if you do this. When becoming a custom job, please choose something that has some form of income. Do not become a custom job that imitates one of the set roles. Other Rules: Do not use any clientside scripts to gain an advantage over other players. Do not exploit a glitch if you find one, please be sure to report it to an admin. Harassing a player out-of-character will be taken seriously, do not attempt to do this. If you witness someone breaking the rules, do not try to enforce them yourself. Always call an admin.
