Community rules

Rules that protect the story.

You accept these at whitelist. Staff enforce them through fully audited, reviewable staff tooling. Read them once and they stop being a surprise.

Built for serious city RP

15 rules across four areas. Zero tolerance where it counts.

The roleplay standard

The baseline every scene is held to. Your character is a person with a life to lose.

  1. 01

    Roleplay first, always.

    You are a character with a life, fears, and consequences, not a player chasing a win. Every interaction has to make in-character sense. Low-effort play and "it's just a game" are not accepted here.

  2. 02

    Value your life.

    Treat your character's life as real. Do not act recklessly in situations a real person would fear, such as having guns drawn on you. When compliance is the realistic choice, comply.

  3. 03

    New Life Rule (NLR).

    If your character is downed and respawns at hospital, you forget the events leading to your death. You may not return to that scene, reclaim your belongings, or seek revenge for it.

  4. 04

    Fear RP and hostage rules.

    Show realistic fear when you are outnumbered or at gunpoint. A hostage's life outranks any objective, and a hostage must be given a realistic role. Never combat-log or break character to escape a situation.

  5. 05

    Stay in character in IC zones.

    The city is in-character; keep OOC chat out of active scenes and use it only where allowed. The Discord looking-for-RP channel is the place for OOC coordination, not the streets.

Violence needs a reason

Conflict is welcome when it is earned. Random violence is not roleplay.

  1. 06

    No RDM (Random Deathmatch).

    Do not attack, kill, or harm another player without a clear, built-up roleplay reason and prior interaction. Initiation must be real before a trigger is pulled.

  2. 07

    No VDM (Vehicle Deathmatch).

    Do not use a vehicle as a weapon without valid RP. Vehicles are transport, not battering rams, and ramming players to skip roleplay is treated the same as RDM.

  3. 08

    No powergaming.

    Do not force outcomes on others or deny them a fair chance to respond, and do not roleplay unrealistic or impossible abilities. Use /me for any action that needs to be acknowledged.

  4. 09

    No cop-baiting or fail-RP.

    Do not provoke police or EMS purely to trigger a chase. Injuries, arrests, and downs carry real weight; play the consequences out instead of shrugging them off.

The wall between IC and OOC

What your character knows and does stays inside the character. That line is not optional.

  1. 10

    No metagaming.

    Do not use out-of-character information in-character. Anything from Discord, streams, or OOC voice does not exist to your character until it is learned in-character.

  2. 11

    One identity, real consequences.

    Do not combat-log to dodge roleplay, stream-snipe, or use alternate accounts to escape a situation or a decision. Your character owns their actions and carries them.

Community conduct

The lines that keep the community safe. These are enforced without negotiation.

  1. 12

    No ERP.

    Zero tolerance

    Erotic or sexual roleplay is prohibited. Fade to black; it is never depicted.

  2. 13

    No harassment, hate speech, or doxxing.

    Zero tolerance

    In-game, in voice, or in Discord, this ends accounts. Treat people with respect out-of-character even when your characters are at war.

  3. 14

    No cheating, exploiting, or modding.

    Permanent ban

    Cheat menus, injectors, exploits, advantage-granting third-party mods, and abusing bugs all mean an immediate permanent ban. Report bugs in a ticket; never exploit them.

  4. 15

    Respect staff.

    Staff calls are final in the moment. If you disagree, open a ticket or appeal calmly. Arguing in-scene or evading a call is a separate offense. Every staff action is logged and reviewable.

How enforcement works

Most breaks are met with progressive discipline. The step is chosen at staff discretion based on severity, intent, and history. Every action is logged and can be reviewed on appeal.
