Server Rules
GENERAL RULES Be respectful to all players out-of-character. Any threats or intent to harm other players in the community or the server will result in a permanent ban. Do not complain about staffing decisions in game or in global chat. Appeals or reports can be made on the forums. In game currency (DarkRP Cash) may not be sold or traded for real life items, currency or credits Avoiding punishments by any means is forbidden. A staff member has final say on all rule interpretations including those not explicitly stated in the rules. Anyone caught baiting or encouraging others to violate rules will have an equal or greater punishment to the rule violation. GOLDEN RULE: USE COMMON SENSE!
RP RULES Random Death Match (RDM) Players directly harming your life, property and/or freedom may be killed without warning. Raids and hits can be completed by killing without warning. All other cases require a valid 10 second warning including a clear set of instructions delivered through typed chat. The action to be completed and the amount of time they have to complete the said action shall be included in all 10 second warnings for the warning to be valid. It is the full responsibility of the person giving the warning to ensure all intended targets are aware of the warning should they ask. If the target has completed the instructions in full, you may not kill them. Group warnings shall only be authorized for 10 second leave warnings. The consequence does not have to be detailed, all valid warnings are automatically a threat. Ex: Drop 1k or die you have 10 seconds. | Leave or die you have 10 seconds. If a target of which a warning and/or inducing action is being directed too shows hostile intent OR ignorance of the instruction (2 second leisure), such as but not limited to specifically pulling out a weapon/red baton, escaping, un-safety-ing a weapon, etc. then action can be made instant. Examples of Inducing Actions: Stunsticking, Raping, Mugging, Pimp Slapping, Kidnapping, Wanting and so on The mayor may not be killed during Mayor Grace for any reason. Mayors Grace is voided by the Mayor executing anything RP related beyond what is done automatically (like default laws) You may not camp the mayors office during his grace with the purpose of killing him afterwards.
