Gameplay Rules
Interaction
There is a 90 second interaction timer. You must verbally initiate quality roleplay and have prior story lines before killing/shooting anyone. Failure to do so will be considered RDM.
Outside of a war, there is NO KOS. War time is not an excuse to break server rules - you still need to abide by server rules even if leaders agree to "no rules."
Initiation must be significant and based on a story/roleplay reason.
Weapons cannot be pulled prior to the 90 second interaction timer.
Robbing
You may not rob/kill someone who is AFK or in their head. You may choose to EITHER kill OR rob. You may not fully kill/flatback after having robbed.
Stealing from whitelisted businesses is prohibited.
You may not "loot box" players. Robbing another player should provide significant roleplay for both sides. We do not have a time limit for how long this roleplay should be, but it should be enough that the person getting robbed is involved in an ongoing scenario.
The following are common examples of lootboxing:
Lootboxing is defined as robbing/taking some of or the majority of a person's belongings without logical RP reason. Running up to someone and saying "put your hands up or die," and pocket wiping them is an example of lootboxing.
Consecutively robbing players or robbing players without any logical roleplay reasoning is considered lootboxing.
Walking up to a stranger or someone you have not roleplayed with and saying "Put your hands up."
Out of Character
Do not break character at any time. Going OOC will result in a ban. - Examples of breaking character or going OOC include; mentioning admins, Discord, going/being live on Twitch, talking about your other characters, or telling someone you're going to report them. Do not abuse /me, /me should only be used to describe an action that does not have an emote or animation. You cannot /me while down to communicate anything other than your injuries.
Exploiting, Metagaming, and Powergaming
Exploiting or abusing any glitches or emotes, known or discovered, will result in a ban.
Abusing bulletproof helmets/headgear is EXPLOITING and will result in a ban should they be abused.
You cannot use any information that you did not discover in RP. This is known as METAGAMING and will result in a ban.
- Example: Player A gets a message from a friend on Discord that Player B is at a specific location and Player A goes to him and downs him. Other examples: stream sniping, using information learned from someone's stream or from clips, using information from players outside of the city (i.e. - your chat).
You may not be in discord calls with anyone while in the city, this is also considered metagaming.
You cannot abuse any mechanics or rules to gain an advantage. This is known as POWERGAMING and will result in a ban.
Combat Logging
Combat logging, or quitting the game to avoid consequences such as death or robbing, are not allowed. Players who quit mid scene are subject to severe consequences.
F8s/Quitting/Holding E during an Interaction:
If you see anyone doing so, please clip it and send it in so we can handle it properly. (ALWAYS GET IDS OR CHARACTER NAME IN CLIPS) Quitting or F8ing is NOT ALLOWED NO MATTER WHAT!
Reimbursements and Other Rules
We will NOT be reimbursing items you poof out of your inventory/overweight pockets. When handing items over to other players, or receiving, please make sure that they are not in their pockets at the time. Additionally, please be mindful of your pockets/inventory being overweight!
Water/ocean dumping is prohibited.
Hitman RP is prohibited.
If you are carrying any weapons larger than an AP you are required to carry an appropriately sized bag for those weapons.
