Interaction with Admins

Follow what the admin says even if it is not specified in the rules and do not start arguing with them, if an admin breaks a rules or being extremely rude to you, you may report him on the forums. Remember that the admins are administrating to make your experience and play time better, please respect them (as well the other players on the server).

RDM - Random Death Match

Random Death Match, literally means a random attempt to shoot a player or kill. All kills and opening fire(Using your weapon) threats must have a valid role-play reason, not all the valid reasons need to be written down, use your common sense, attempting to kill/damage someone without a valid RP reason will end up in a kick and if the situation is major, a ban(the staff decides the length).

Do not kill people when they leave your property or are not behind the KOS line.

  • For example:
  • If someone attempts to raid you and you kill him, it will NOT count as RDM.
  • If you just walk on the street, pull out your gun and kill someone without a reason at all, it will count as RDM.
  • If you don't like someone or you got killed recently by someone and you go back to him and kill him for revenge, maybe you even broke NLR and it will count as RDM.

RDA - Random Arrest

Random Arrests are just as annoying as anything because Civil Protection is supposed to be protection, not randomly arresting people for no RP reason. You can't go running around with an arrest baton out swinging it and hitting anyone you see or even if you hate someone. You must have a valid reason to arrest someone or else you could get warned, kicked, or banned. Use common sense situations to dipict a right way to arrest someone.

  • For example:
  • If you see someone shoot someone, this will NOT count as RDA.
  • Maybe someone killed you for a valid reason in another life and you go back to arrest them, this WILL count as RDA and possibly NLR.
  • Running up to someone and arresting them for no reason at all, this WILL count as RDA.

NLR - New Life Rule

New life rule, this rule applies to you when you die, and means that you must not come back to the your death point within 3 minutes, or anywhere close to it. You must also forget all role-play related events of your character (for example you and you die, you must 'forget' that).

You can not return to your base if you died defending it from a raid until the raid is over, this includes sniping from a distance or shooting at your base from the outside. You will notice that you are still being raided when people are telling you to go outside, you can see that your stuff is being destroyed or you can use a camera which you must have placed before the raid started.

  • For example:
  • Someone raids you, while you go back to your base he is already gone, however it haven't been 3 minutes yet, you broke NLR.
  • Someone raids you and you die. You have waited 3 minutes and go back to your base. On the way you see the guy who raided you, you pull out your gun and you kill him, you broke NLR.
  • Someone raids you and you die. You have waited 3 minutes and act towards the players who raided you as if nothing has happened, you didn't break NLR.
