SERVER RULES
READ THE RULES. Ignorance is not an excuse and will result in your ban being extended.
0. These rules are flexible and a staff member whose rank is admin or higher may ignore these rules on their discretion for the best interest of the players. Should an admin abuse this, they will be fully accountable for their actions. Do not argue with a staff member, instead bring it on the forums if you disagree with them. Arguing with a staff member in-game results in a ban.
General Rules
1.1 Behaviour - Do not be a dick! Doing something just for "shits and giggles" and otherwise being a pain for other people is not tolerated.
1.2 Respect - Toxicity, rude and arrogant way of communicating with admins is always punished with 24 hour ban.
1.3 Language - We are ENGLISH only server, speaking in other languages on the server is not allowed. ICly how ever, it is allowed to speak other languages.
1.4 Favouritism - Do not ask and expect special treatment. The admins are not obligated to teleport you, make you a zombie or anything else even if the IC situation would favour it.
Server Rules
2. GAMEPLAY - Stay in-character all the time. You are not allowed to go OOC, until you are teleported by an admin who wishes to talk with you, or if you are at the spawn.
2.1. BASIC ROLEPLAY - Do not metagame, powergame and/or avoidRP. You may not use OOC to talk about the current IC situation, as this is metabaiting and ruins the immersion for everyone.
2.2 BACK SEAT MODERATION - Do not use LOOC to judge other person´s roleplay and do not accuse him of breaking rules. Use /adminHelp for this.
2.3 EROTICAL ROLEPLAY - No ERP allowed. We have zero tolerance policy and this is not negotiable.
2.4 BAN EVADING - Ban evading is always a permanent ban. If you create another steam account to access our server, you will be applied a permanent ban on both accounts.
2.5 EXPLOITS - Hacking or using exploits results in a ban. We have anti-cheat on our server which will detect if you have these kind of programs, and you will be asked to remove them before you can continue playing. If you refuse to remove the cheating programs, you will be permanently banned.
2.6 ROLEPLAY - No IC in OOC and no OOC in IC. This is simple to understand, a mute will be applied for first offence and second offence will result in a ban of 24 hours.
2.7 SHOOTING - The server uses P2L in shooting. S2K is allowed by: Overwatch Transhuman Arm and with special permission from Super Admin, others can S2K as well.
2.8 NAMES - Your character needs proper first and last name. Only one nickname is allowed in middle of the name. You may not name your character after famous people or use an obviously inapproriate name, such as "John Anus", "Peter Pervert" for example. Failure to follow this rule will lead to staff change your name, character ban and at worst scenarios short in-game ban.
2.9 CHARACTER AGE - Human characters on our server are always over 24 years old, assuming the Combine has invaded in 2010 and set-up a suppression field. Younger characters require an approved character authorization application.
Faction Rules
--- Inmate ---
3. GAMEPLAY - You are a normal human. You need to eat, sleep and survive. Think what your character would do in the situation before acting it out, do not endanger your life with out a very good reason. Arguing with guards who have gun pointed at you is very bad RP.
3.1. EMPLOYMENT - If you are employed to a specific role, do not try to do other people´s work. For example, as a janitor you do not know how to do the medical stuff. And a prison doctor you do not know how to fix broken pipes etc.
3.2. RESISTANCE - Resisting the Combine is fully acceptable, if the proper roleplay is done ICly. You take full responsible of your character and its death if you die on the hands of the Combine. Resisting while unarmed should not be done if the other side is armed.
--- ---
--- Guards ---
4. GAMEPLAY - You are a Nova Prospekt unit, you need to follow the chain of command and obey orders. You CAN NOT go rogue with out super admin¨s approval.
4.1. ROLEPLAY - You are expected to roleplay at least satisfactory. This role requires at least average roleplaying skills and failing to obey such basic rules as "no OOC in IC", "no metabaiting", "no powergaming" will result in unwhitelist if repeated.
4.2. COMBAT - You may not S2K unarmed inmates. If the inmate runs away from you in play to win style (aka not doing a /me), you may S2K them. You may S2K if you have been attacked w/o a /me.
4.3. ARREST - Tying requires a /me IF there is a decent chance the suspect WOULD and COULD resist you.
4.4 NEGLECTING DUTY - NEVER leave the prison as a guard, until you are with a patrol partner and sweep is ordered by GEOW. Leaving with out a really good reason like that will result in de-servicement and unwhitelist.
When it does not require /me, example:
If the inmates are in a line and you have an armed partner keeping an eye on the inmates behind you. Inmates WOULD NOT resist because it would be too late.
When it is required, example:
You tell someone to face the wall, they are confused and you suddenly attempt to tie them.
4.5. ITEMS - DO NOT give any of your equipment to anyone outside your faction. Doing so will result in a ban from one month to permanent and unwhitelist from guards and OTA. This is your only warning.
4.6. BRAGGING - Do not brag for promotions OOCly, until the next in command has went inactive or the next rank is empty. Doing so will result in a warning and kick. If repeated, a demotion.
--- ---
--- OTA ---
5. GAMEPLAY - You have been augmented and memory replaced, you do not sympathize anyone, and only follow your orders because all you know is that the Combine is your future. You may have some feelings, such as fear or happiness, but they are mild enough to not hinder your capability to carry out orders and operations.
5.1. CHARACTER - Do not jump on your OTA character with out faction leader´s, super admin´s or faction leader´s appointed representive´s permission. You may jump on your OTA character if there is a judgement waiver AND EpU+ has given authorization to deploy. Faction leader may also give this authorization.
5.2. ITEMS - You may only buy items you need and are ordered to buy.
5.3. RELATION - You may talk with Civil Protection units, if it helps in your objective. How ever, useless chatter is not allowed. You may not talk to citizens except when you must give them orders (hardly ever).
--- ---
As a staff member you will enforce the rules and make sure everyone plays on an equal footing. Any form of biased behavior will be punished and your rank might eventually be revoked after several warnings. Being a staff member comes with responsibilities and they might even take away some of your roleplaying time; you won't play as much and you will deal with players more than you will type out an emote. If you can't deal with this, and you would rather play than administrate, please notify Head Administrator of this so we can work something out together.
As admin/operator you will uphold these rules as well as any other rule written in this thread. If you fail to do so you will be given a warning, after two warnings have been given you will be demoted or your staff membership might be revoked entirely.
As for the rules
You will not spawn anything for anyone: making a salesman and getting free items of this counts as the same
You will not abuse your observer: unless you need to fly off to someone because said person is asking for help, you're not allowed to go in observer and fly into the rebel base
You will not allow rule breaking: not even for yourself or your friends will you allow rulebreaking
You will not allow flamewars in out-of-character global chat: when even smelling a hint of flamewars or a fight, you will try to put a halt to it before warning said people
You will not make exceptions for your character: same as spawning, rulebreaking or observer

Operator/Admin rules and guidelines
These are more guidelines than rules but we insist that you use these as a set of rules as to avoid any arguments or fights. Remember to always work together with your fellow staff members and to avoid any conflict between any of you. Every single difference you had/have with a fellow staff member from before the restart of peace-sector is from now on complete void. We strive to make a better community for players and try to give them a pleasant place to play on and after all this community is called peace-sector.As a staff member you will enforce the rules and make sure everyone plays on an equal footing. Any form of biased behavior will be punished and your rank might eventually be revoked after several warnings. Being a staff member comes with responsibilities and they might even take away some of your roleplaying time; you won't play as much and you will deal with players more than you will type out an emote. If you can't deal with this, and you would rather play than administrate, please notify Head Administrator of this so we can work something out together.
As admin/operator you will uphold these rules as well as any other rule written in this thread. If you fail to do so you will be given a warning, after two warnings have been given you will be demoted or your staff membership might be revoked entirely.
