Server rules

Every player on The Godfather Roleplay (TGF RP) must follow these rules. Administrators quote the rule number when they give a punishment (e.g. rule 9.3), and players use the same numbers when they report.

Abbreviations such as IC, OOC, PK and CK are explained in the guide’s glossary. If you are unsure about a rule, you can ask staff in game with /helpme.

0. Scope and punishments

This chapter sets out where the rules apply, the punishments for breaking them and how to appeal a punishment.

0.1 Scope

These rules apply on the game server, in the in-game phone apps, on the UCP (account site), on the forum and on the official Discord.

0.2 Spirit of the rules

The intent of a rule comes before its wording. An administrator may punish behaviour that is not written here if it harms other players’ roleplay.

0.3 Punishment steps

Punishments come in the steps below. Once you have three active warnings, a temporary ban is considered.

0.4 Offences that skip the steps

The following lead straight to a temporary or permanent ban without a warning.

• Using hacks, mod menus or cheat software
• Real-money trading (RMT) and selling accounts
• Sexual assault roleplay and sexual content involving minors
• Impersonating staff, threats and doxxing
• Creating a new account to evade a ban

0.5 Standard punishments

Administrators punish according to the table below and may raise or lower a punishment depending on the situation.

0.6 Administrator decisions

Administrators decide using server records (audit logs, /damages damage records, crime records and chat logs) and the evidence submitted. An administrator must tell you the reason when they punish you.

0.7 Appeals

If you disagree with a punishment, you must contact the administrator who gave it first. If that does not resolve it, you may file an appeal within 7 days through the UCP ticket category 'Ban appeal' or on the forum under 'Requests and appeals › Ban appeal'. Banned accounts can still use UCP tickets. The full procedure is in 16.5.

1. Common courtesy

Out of character you must treat every player with respect, and in character you must roleplay at all times. Failing to roleplay a situation is strictly forbidden.

1.1 Courtesy

You may not insult, mock, discriminate against or harass other players OOC.

1.2 Staying in character

You must stay in character during a scene. If another player breaks a rule, finish the scene and report it afterwards with /report. If the scene cannot continue at all, say so briefly in /b and then report it.

You must roleplay any injuries your character suffers and any accidents while driving, even if you are alone and believe no one saw.

1.3 Logging out during a scene

You may not disconnect or switch characters to escape a scene that is going against you. The server blocks /selectchar while you are downed, handcuffed, in custody, recently attacked or in admin jail.

If your connection really drops, you must reconnect, say so in /b and continue the scene. If you cannot reconnect, let staff know through /report or a UCP ticket.

1.4 OOC channels

Keep OOC talk short and in /b, /pm or /cb. You may not mix OOC content into IC chat such as normal speech, /me or /do.

1.5 /me and /do

Use /me only for your own character’s actions and /do only for the surroundings and conditions. You may not decide another character’s actions or their outcome (chapter 2).

1.6 Administrator instructions

You must follow an administrator’s instructions even if you disagree. Appeal after the scene through the procedure in 16.5. You may not impersonate staff or claim to have staff powers.

1.7 New players

New players can ask questions in the /n newbie channel and through /helpme. Experienced players must answer such questions politely OOC.

2. Powergaming

Powergaming (PG) is performing actions that would be impossible in real life, forcing an outcome on another player without giving them a chance to respond, or using roleplay to get around something the server blocks. Powergaming is forbidden.

2.1 Forcing outcomes

You may not decide the outcome of an action before the other player has responded. Roleplay the attempt, wait for their response and then continue.

2.2 Impossible actions

You may not perform actions a person could not do in real life.

2.3 Items you do not have

You may not roleplay using weapons, tools, drugs or evidence that are not in your inventory (/inv), your weapons (/weapons) or the vehicle inventory (/vinv). Visible modifications fitted to a vehicle are the exception.

2.4 Bypassing server features

You may not roleplay an outcome that a server command prevents. Actions that have a command, such as vehicle theft, break-ins and robberies, must be done with that command.

2.5 CCTV

Only cameras registered in the server CCTV (/cctv, /viewcctv) may be roleplayed as working. Footage from outside the server cameras does not exist.

2.6 Putting loot before life

While a shootout continues, escaping or tending to wounds comes before looting. Putting loot before your character’s life is considered powergaming.

2.7 Fear roleplay

When your character is threatened with a weapon or heavily outnumbered, they must act to protect their life.

2.8 Changing clothes mid-scene

You may not change clothes with /outfit during a chase or an investigation to lose your pursuers. It is allowed if you hid and roleplayed taking time to change.

2.9 Ignoring crashes

You must roleplay injuries and damage after a vehicle crash. Crashes caused by obvious desync are the exception.

3. Metagaming

Metagaming (MG) is using OOC information your character could not know in IC actions. Your character knows only what they have seen, heard or found out themselves.

3.1 Nametags and server IDs

You may not roleplay knowing a stranger’s name from the nametag above their head (/nametag) or their server ID. Names are learned through introductions, ID cards (/sdl, /showbadge) and documents.

3.2 Masks

You may not identify a masked person using OOC information such as their nametag or server ID.

3.3 Outside messengers

You may not exchange IC information through anything outside the game, such as Discord, KakaoTalk or voice calls. IC contact happens only through the in-game phone, radio and face to face.

3.4 Watching streams

You may not watch another player’s stream or videos to find their character’s location or plans (stream sniping).

3.5 Knowledge of other characters

Your character may not use information that one of your other characters learned.

3.6 Memory after a PK

You may not use memories lost through a PK (5.3).

3.7 OOC conversations

You may not use anything you heard in /b, /pm or a report conversation in character.

4. Deathmatching and revenge

Deathmatching (DM) is attacking or killing another character without sufficient roleplay reason. Vehicle deathmatching (VDM) is deliberately ramming people or vehicles with a vehicle. Both are forbidden.

4.1 Deathmatching

Before you attack another character there must be roleplay such as demands, warnings or threats. If the other side uses a weapon first or threatens your life, you may respond immediately. Unarmed attacks and /knockout also count as deathmatching.

If you hit someone by mistake, you can ask for a restore with /missclick (/mc) within 5 seconds.

4.2 Vehicle deathmatching

You may not deliberately ram people or vehicles with a vehicle. An administrator judges situations where you escape an armed attacker to save your life.

4.3 Indiscriminate attacks

Shooting sprees in public places and attacking several people in a row without reason are treated as forbidden roleplay (8.3).

4.4 No revenge

A character who was PK’d may not take revenge for that incident. For 30 minutes after a PK, you may not return within 200 m of where the scene took place.

4.5 Shootouts between factions

Conflicts between factions are also subject to the conflict rules in 12.5.

5. Injuries, death, PK and CK

A badly injured character goes down, and without treatment in time they enter the death state. A PK is when a character leaves a scene and loses their memory of it; a CK is when a character dies permanently.

5.1 Injury and death states

The server handles injury and death in the order below. If you are not revived within 5 minutes of going down, you enter the death state, and 2 minutes after that you can use /acceptdeath.

5.2 Injury roleplay

While downed you may roleplay only short words, groans and small movements. You cannot use the radio, call 911, use a phone or use a gun.

For 30 minutes after being revived you may not run, fight or join a shootout. You can check your injuries with /injuries and /damages.

5.3 PK

Using /acceptdeath or being moved to hospital automatically is a PK. A PK’d character does not remember the scene that put them down, including who did it, where and why. A character revived with /revive or /helpup keeps their memory.

5.4 CK

You can CK your own character with /ckself confirm Firstname Lastname. It takes effect immediately without review and cannot be undone.

A CK of another character is requested with /ckrequest target reason and evidence, with a reason of 10 to 1,000 characters. Staff review the reason, the evidence and the target’s records, and a staff member who is the requester or the target does not review that request.

A CK’d character can no longer be played. Their cash, bank balance, items, vehicles and properties are frozen, vehicle and property keys they gave to other characters are revoked, and the character slot is freed.

5.5 Grounds for a CK

Whether a CK is approved is up to the admin’s judgement. For example: dying in a gunfight with the police while surrounded by them, a case where the real-life chance of survival is close to 0%.

5.6 After a CK

A new character may not use the previous character’s knowledge, relationships or assets.

5.7 Fixing a stuck downed state

/fixrevive may only be used when a bug leaves you stuck downed. It works only when you have no injury record from the last 10 minutes. Using it to escape real injuries is punished as bug abuse (7.3).

6. Characters

Your character must be a realistic person who could live in Los Santos. Their name, age and description must follow the rules below.

6.1 Names

Character names are an English first name and last name. Each part is 2 to 24 letters long and starts with a capital letter; numbers, spaces and symbols are not allowed. Forms such as O'Brien, McDonald, MacArthur and Mary-Jane are allowed.

You may not use the name of a real celebrity, a name that mocks another player, or an obscene or offensive name.

6.2 Age

Characters are between 18 and 80 years old, and their appearance must match their age. You may not create an underage character.

6.3 Character descriptions

You write your description with /attributes, and others view it with /examine. A description must neutrally describe your character’s general demeanour and appearance and must not sexualise the character.

6.4 Forbidden characters

You may not create the following characters.

• Characters with superpowers, superheroes, non-human beings and real people
• Criminals with extreme motives, such as serial killers, terrorists, serial arsonists, human traffickers and cyber terrorists
• Characters made only to commit robberies, without a job or daily life

A criminal with an extreme motive may be played with special permission from staff through a UCP ticket.

6.5 Multiple characters

Each account can have up to 3 characters. Characters on the same account may not be connected as friends, family, business partners or employer and employee, and you may not involve two of your characters in the same incident.

You may not play a police or government character and an illegal group character on the same account. Each person may use only one account, and you may not create another account to get around these rules.

6.6 Name changes

You can change your character’s name with a name change from the points shop. You may not change your name to escape a debt, compensation for a scam, an investigation or a warrant; such a name change is punished and the original obligation is restored.

7. Cheating

Cheating is gaining an unfair advantage over other players through software, bugs, or other accounts or characters.

7.1 Hacks and cheats

Using mod menus, trainers, memory editing, aim assistance or wallhacks leads to a permanent ban. The server detects abnormal movement speed, teleporting and money that appears from nowhere, alerts administrators, and an administrator punishes after checking.

7.2 Macros and keybinds

You may not run repetitive work such as mining, fishing or scrap collecting with automated input. You may not use keybinds to replace roleplay or to gain an advantage in combat.

7.3 Bug abuse

If you find a bug, you must report it through /report or the UCP ticket category 'Bug report'. You may test a bug only under an administrator’s supervision. If you know someone is abusing a bug and hide it, you may be punished as well.

7.4 Real-money trading (RMT)

You may not exchange in-game money, items, vehicles, properties, characters or accounts for real money or another game’s currency. Doing so leads to a permanent ban. The points shop does not sell in-game money.

7.5 Account sharing

You may not share, lend or sell your account.

7.6 Moving assets between characters

You may not move money, items, vehicles, properties or keys between characters on the same account. The server blocks bank transfers, vehicle sales, property transfers and rentals, marketplace trades and leases between characters on the same account.

Moving assets through a storage, the ground, a car trunk or another person’s character is the same offence. The only exception is a transfer approved by staff through an 'Asset transfer' request on the UCP.

7.7 Staying AFK

You may not stay connected while away from the keyboard just to receive your paycheck.

8. Forbidden roleplay

Some roleplay is never allowed on the server, and some is allowed only with the consent of everyone involved.

8.1 Never allowed

The following roleplay is forbidden in every case and leads to an immediate permanent ban.

• Rape and forced sexual roleplay
• Paedophilia and sexual content involving minors
• Sexual roleplay with a player who is under 18 in real life

8.2 Roleplay that needs consent

Sexual roleplay is allowed only when everyone involved has agreed OOC. It may not take place outdoors or indoors where many people come and go, such as an open business or a building with many tenants.

Torture and mutilation may be described in detail only when the victim agrees in /b. Without consent, write only the outcome briefly with /do.

8.3 Forbidden themes

You may not use the following themes in roleplay.

• Recreating real-world terror attacks or mass killings
• Hate speech about real-world race, religion, gender or disability (IC and OOC)
• Depicting animal abuse
• Actions that bring roleplay across the whole server to a halt, such as public shooting sprees or serial arson

The last item is allowed with the special permission described in 6.4.

9. Crime

Criminal roleplay causes losses to other players, so it is held to a higher standard. A crime must begin with roleplay, and server commands are used to support that roleplay.

9.1 General principles

1. A crime must begin with roleplay. Commands are used to support the roleplay.
2. You must give the victim a chance to respond.
3. Crime commands work only when server conditions such as the number of police on duty, cooldowns and distance are met.
4. NPCs do not buy or sell drugs or guns. Illegal goods are traded only between players and groups.

9.2 Crime commands and conditions

The crimes below are done with server commands. If too few police are on duty or a cooldown is running, the command does not work.

9.3 Mugging

1. You may mug only in secluded places outside the no-crime and restricted crime zones of chapter 10, or inside a group turf.
2. You may take only the cash and items the victim is carrying at that moment.
3. You may not make the victim withdraw money from a bank or ATM, send money from their phone, or roleplay taking their cards.
4. A single mugging is limited to $3,000 in cash plus the market value of the items. To take more, you must get administrator approval through /report.
5. The same victim can be mugged only once every 24 hours.
6. Characters with less than 10 hours of playtime cannot be mugged or scammed.
7. You may not harm a victim who complied with every demand. Harming them requires a separate roleplay reason (4.1).
8. The victim may refuse with /denyrob, but must accept the consequences in roleplay, such as stronger threats or being restrained.

9.4 Store and ATM robberies

1. Store and ATM robberies may be done only with /rob and /robatm.
2. Before going in, you must roleplay a mask, threats or demands.
3. If player customers are present, you must threaten them in roleplay first, and to rob their belongings you must follow 9.3.
4. You may not take turns with your partners to rob the same store back to back and avoid the cooldown.

9.5 Burglary

1. Burglary may be done only with /burglary or /randombreakin.
2. You may not take someone’s belongings with access you got from a shared key or a rental. Even with a key, robbing that house requires /randombreakin.
3. You may not buy or rent a house in order to rob it.

9.6 Vehicle theft

1. Roleplay lockpicking from outside the car, not after you are already sitting inside it.
2. Roleplay hotwiring from the driver’s seat before you drive off.
3. The owner can report the vehicle stolen with /reportstolen.
4. Fake plates (/fakeplate) may be used only if a forgery group made them.

9.7 Scams

A scam is any deceitful roleplay used to obtain something from another character.

1. A scam is limited to $5,000 per scam. Scams against the same victim may not total more than $5,000 over 7 days.
2. A scam in a gun or drug deal is limited to $10,000 per scam.
3. Vehicles and properties cannot be scammed. Ownership changes hands only through the server sale commands (/sellvehicle with /buyplayervehicle, and /psp with /paccept).
4. You may not wipe out a debt by changing your name or through a CK (6.6).

9.8 Kidnapping and hostages

1. You may hold a victim for up to 60 minutes in one scene. Holding them longer requires administrator approval.
2. If the victim asks for an OOC break in /b, you must pause the scene and agree on a time to continue.
3. Ransoms are limited by the scam cap of $5,000.
4. Trunk kidnapping (/trunkkidnap) works only on someone handcuffed, downed or knocked out.

9.9 Drugs and guns

1. Drugs can be made only with /cook in the drug lab of an approved tier 2 group, up to 20 per group per day.
2. There are no NPC street dealer shops and no cannabis seed sales.
3. Legal guns are bought at Ammu-Nation with a firearms licence. Illegal guns can be made only by gun groups with /assemblegun, within their monthly quota.
4. Serial numbers can be defaced (/defaceserial) only at a tier 2 group headquarters, and never on government weapons.

9.10 Unrealistic crime

Unrealistic crimes and characters that exist only to commit crimes are punishable.

9.11 Limits on the number of offenders

The number of offenders taking part in one crime may not exceed the numbers below.

10. Anti-crime zones

The server has no-crime zones, where no crime may take place at all, and restricted crime zones, where some crimes need administrator approval. Everywhere else the general crime rules apply.

10.1 Types of zone

If a chase that started outside a no-crime zone enters one, you must stop attacking inside it. A secluded alley right next to a no-crime zone is not part of the zone.

10.2 No-crime zones

The new player spawn area covers the spawn point, the LS Citizen Support Center, the Davis self-service car rental, the Davis driving test centre and Herr Kutz. Where this area overlaps the Grove Street turf, the no-crime zone takes priority.

At the Mission Row police station, only a prison break with /breakout is allowed as an exception.

10.3 Restricted crime zones

The following places are restricted crime zones.

• Grove Street convenience store and Davis ATM (about 170 m from the spawn point)
• Billings Gate Motel
• Legion Square car rental
• LSIA car rental and cargo hardware store
• The waste collection yard in the airport cargo area
• Rogers Salvage workbench and scrap buyer
• Del Perro Pier fishing spot and fish buyer
• Port of Los Santos logistics warehouse
• Strawberry pawn shop
• Premium Deluxe Motorsport

11. Police and government agencies

Government agency members hold more power than civilians, so they follow stricter rules. Government weapons and equipment are issued only for duty.

11.1 Agencies

The server’s government agencies are the Los Santos Police Department (LSPD, Mission Row police station), the Los Santos Fire Department for fire and medical services (LSFD, Davis fire station and Pillbox Hill hospital) and Los Santos City Hall (Rockford Hills).

11.2 Government weapons and equipment

1. Civilians may not use government weapons or equipment for any reason.
2. Government weapons and equipment are taken back when your shift ends.
3. Government weapons and equipment cannot be traded, dropped, stored, stolen or seized. The server stops issued guns from being handed over or dropped, and neither /snatch (taking a gun from a downed person) nor serial defacing works on government weapons.
4. Off-duty agency members may not use government weapons or equipment either.
5. Government equipment covers armoury-issued guns, government ammunition, tasers, batons, smoke and tear gas grenades, handcuffs, spike strips, road barriers, drones, helicopter cameras and agency vehicles. Civilians may not drive agency vehicles or steal the tyres of an empty police car.

If a government weapon is not taken back and stays with you, you must report it as a bug (7.3).

11.3 Duty

You go on duty with /fduty (faction) or /pduty (response unit). The armoury, handcuffs, MDC reports, impounds and fines can be used only on duty, and on duty you must wear your uniform with /uniform.

In agencies with duty rules enabled, any gun you have out goes into your bag when you go on duty, and on duty you can draw only issued guns.

11.4 Abuse of power

1. You may not go on or off duty to meet or block the police count a crime requires. You may not go AFK while on duty.
2. You may not use the MDC, phone tracking or CAD information for personal reasons or on behalf of another character. Phone tracking (/trackphone) may be used only with a warrant or a 911 call.
3. You may not arrest, search, fine or seize licences without a reason. Parking tickets are issued between $25 and $500.
4. You may not use /govannouncement or /pa for private purposes.
5. You may not help a criminal group while on duty.

11.5 Arrest and imprisonment

You jail a suspect with /arrest ID minutes reason. The sentence follows the MDC charge guidelines and stays within the prison’s maximum sentence (chapter 14).

11.6 Use of force

Force must be proportionate to the threat. You may not shoot an unarmed person.

11.7 Searches

A civilian who wants to search someone must ask with /frisk request, and the other person must agree with /acceptfrisk. Police can search under their on-duty powers.

11.8 Helicopters and drones

Before taking off in a helicopter, you must roleplay pre-flight checks or wait 3 minutes. You may not follow one group for a long time without progress, and over the radio you may pass on only what you actually saw on the helicopter camera or drone feed.

12. Factions

A faction is a group recognised by the server. There are legal factions, illegal groups and companies, and each type has its own way of being created and its own rules.

12.1 Types of faction

12.2 Illegal group tiers

Each field can have at most 2 unofficial and official groups across the server. A group with no activity for 14 days drops one tier, and an applicant group is cancelled.

When a group is very active, the police may receive anonymous tips or raid its headquarters.

12.3 Application requirements

12.4 Multiple memberships

To join another faction at the same time, you need approval from the leaders of both factions and from an administrator. Members of a government agency may not join an illegal group.

12.5 Conflicts between factions

1. A conflict must start from a roleplay incident, not from OOC feelings.
2. You may not drag uninvolved civilians into a conflict.
3. A member who was PK’d may not take revenge for the same incident (4.4).
4. A member’s CK is requested by the leader with evidence through /ckrequest.
5. At most 8 people per side may take part in a shootout.
6. If a conflict lasts more than 2 weeks, an administrator may step in.

12.6 Faction funds and stashes

Betrayal roleplay in which you walk off with faction funds or stash items is allowed only with the leader’s OOC consent or administrator approval.

12.7 Warnings and progression

When a faction receives a warning, its progression is locked.

13. Property, business and advertising

Property, vehicles, businesses and advertising follow the server commands and the rules below. Getting around a trade the server blocks by other means is punished as feature abuse.

13.1 Motel

The Billings Gate Motel costs $40 a day, and you can pay up to 7 days in advance. Rooms have a storage, and its contents stay for 3 days after your stay ends.

13.2 Ownership limits

A character can own up to 5 buildings, of which up to 2 are residential and 1 is a detached house.

13.3 Buying and selling

You cannot resell a property for 14 days after buying it. The sale price is capped by how long you have owned it: up to 100% of the market value within 1 month, 300% within 3 months and 500% within 6 months, with no limit after that. Within the first month you also cannot sell for more than you paid.

Buying and selling over and over only for profit (flipping) is forbidden.

13.4 Property tax

Property tax is paid every week starting 7 days after purchase. The rate is 0.10% of the purchase price for apartments, 0.15% for houses, shops and similar, and 0.20% for luxury homes of $750,000 or more. If you do not pay for 3 weeks, selling and changing rentals are locked.

13.5 Inactivity repossession

If a character has played less than 8 hours in the last 15 days, their property may be repossessed. If you will be away for a long time, ask for an exemption through a UCP ticket.

13.6 Renting

Rentals run for 7, 14 or 30 days. A tenant can rent up to 2 places, and a tenant who falls behind on rent is evicted after 24 hours.

13.7 Key abuse

You may not take things from a house with access you got from a shared key (/givepropertykey) or a rental (9.5).

13.8 Vehicles

Vehicle ownership must be transferred only with /sellvehicle and /buyplayervehicle. Any other method to avoid tax or the same-account block is feature abuse. A character can own up to 20 vehicles.

Unless you are a licensed dealer, you may not buy vehicles in bulk to resell them.

13.9 Businesses

A business is registered with /bregister and can manage employees and funds (/bdeposit, /bwithdraw). Changing the registered type of business requires administrator approval. You may not employ a character from your own account (6.5).

13.10 Advertising

Each person can have one advertisement active in the phone ads app. An ad can be up to 180 characters and stays up for 24 hours. Personal ads cost $150 and can be posted every 15 minutes; business, company and event ads cost $300 and can be posted every 30 minutes.

Ads may not sell illegal goods, recruit for crime, contain OOC content, repeat the same content or attack another business.

14. Prison

Arrested characters serve their sentence in prison. IC rules apply in prison as everywhere else, and inmates must roleplay realistic fear.

14.1 Facility

The prison is the jail inside the Mission Row police station. The maximum sentence is 60 minutes.

14.2 Sentences

Your sentence goes down only while you are online and serving it, and you can check the time left with /prisontime. Prison labour takes 60 seconds off each time (every 2 minutes) and exercise 30 seconds (every 3 minutes), up to 30% of the original sentence.

While in prison you can use the cell storage (/stash), request visits (/visits, every 5 minutes) and meet a lawyer (/counsel).

14.3 Inmate conduct

1. Inmates must feel and act on realistic fear in prison.
2. You may not troll by attacking other inmates without reason or constantly jumping around.
3. A one-on-one fight between inmates is allowed only in a secluded spot, with both agreeing and not to the death.
4. Other fights and riots are allowed only when 2 or more police are on duty.
5. Attacking an officer is allowed only when 3 or more police are on duty.
6. You may use a phone in prison only if you roleplayed smuggling it in.

14.4 Prison breaks

A prison break may be done only with /breakout Firstname Lastname. A helper from the same group must run it within 40 m outside the prison wall, with 3 lockpicks, 2 vehicle parts and 3 or more police on duty.

A prison break is possible once every 6 hours per prison and once every 24 hours per helper, and only for inmates with 5 or more minutes left. A breakout puts out a 7-day MDC warrant and a CAD alert. If you die during a breakout, the admin decides whether it is a CK (5.5).

14.5 Admin jail

/ajail is an OOC punishment and is separate from IC prison.

15. Phone and social apps

The in-game phone is an IC medium. Posts, photos and ads in phone apps are IC actions that other players see, so IC rules apply to them in full.

15.1 An IC medium

Everything you post in a phone app is your character’s action and carries IC consequences.

15.2 App limits

The server sets the following limits for each app.

15.3 Forbidden content

You may not post the following in phone apps.

• OOC content such as Discord promotion, complaints about the server or mentions of staff
• Real-life photos and sexual or gory images (including /drawposter posters)
• Other players’ OOC personal details, such as their real name, contact details or Discord account
• Posts that repeatedly attack a particular character out of OOC feelings
• Spam of the same post

You may not post while downed, dead or in prison. In prison, it is allowed if you roleplayed smuggling a phone in.

15.4 IC personal information

Publishing another character’s address or phone number is an IC action, and you must accept IC consequences such as lawsuits or revenge roleplay.

15.5 Emergency calls

/911 (police) and /991 (medical) are IC calls. Hoax calls lead to both IC penalties and an OOC punishment.

16. Reports and appeals

Rule breaks are reported after the scene through in-game commands or a UCP ticket. Appeals against punishments follow the procedure below.

16.1 In-game commands

16.2 UCP tickets

UCP tickets are sorted into Player report, Report staff, Bug report, Refund request, Ban appeal, Character kill (CK) request, Fund transfer request, General support and Inquiry. A ticket must include the time of the incident, any witnesses and evidence links (https).

16.3 Writing a report

A report must include the following.

1. The time and place of the incident
2. The other player’s server ID or character name
3. The number of the rule that was broken
4. Evidence such as video or screenshot links

16.4 Time limits

You must report within 72 hours of the incident. You must keep evidence videos for 7 days.

16.5 Appeal procedure

1. Contact the administrator who punished you first, through /pm or the UCP.
2. If that does not resolve it, file an appeal within 7 days through the UCP ticket category 'Ban appeal' or on the forum under 'Requests and appeals › Ban appeal'.
3. A staff member other than the administrator who punished you reviews the appeal.
4. You are told the result within 14 days.
5. You can appeal the same punishment only once; with new evidence you can file again.
