RULE # 1 THIS SERVER IS FOR NEWBIES::: Be friendly and open to help New players as much as they want. If it is right after the wipe or right before the next one I still expect new players to the server to be helped by current players.
RULE # 2 RAIDING:::: NO RAIDING AND NO PVP DURING THE FIRST 7 DAYS AFTER THE WIPE. BUILD AND LIVE IN PEACE. REPEAT: NO PVP DURING THIS FIRST SEVEN DAYS!!!! PVE ALL YOU LIKE ON THE OIL RIG, CARGO SHIP AND WITH ANY NPC. AFTER THE FIRST SEVEN DAYS PVP IS ONLY ALLOWED IN MONUMENTS AND AT BASES DURING RAIDS. (NEW) ORGANIZED PVP BATTLES OR CONTESTS INSIDE THE COLISEUM's (ARENA's) IS ALLOWED AT ANY TIME BETWEEN WILLING PLAYERS.
RULE # 3 No killing (PVP) on roads or at loot piles NEAR roads (except for PVE of Scientists and other NPC's). NO KOS AND NO SNIPING ON THIS SERVER EVER!!!! IF YOU ARE ADVANCED ENOUGH TO BUILD AND USE A SCOPE IT IS TIME TO FOR YOU TO SWITCH SERVERS.
RULE # 4 Solo, Duo or Trio TEAMS ONLY, no clans.
RULE # 5 SAFE ZONES/COMMUNITY CENTERS:::ROADS AND SAFE ZONES/COMMUNITY AREAS ARE ALWAYS NO WEAPONS,NO PVP AND NO KOS. NEVER USE KOS (kill on sight) OR SNIPING ANYWHERE ON THIS SERVER. NO RAIDING, PVP OR WEAPONS IS EVER ALLOWED IN SAFE ZONES.
NOTE: Players may build a base inside the Safe Zone if you ARE NOT GOING to participate in raiding and do not want to be raided. THE SAFE ZONE IS NOT A HIDE OUT OR A PLACE TO HIDE YOUR RAIDING STASH. It is a community of builders, farmers, gatherers, explorers and lovers. NO WEAPONS on your tool belt inside the Admin safe zones/Community Centers, but you may have a weapon and ammo for self protection on you but NOT on your tool belt. (These are the same rules that apply at the games NPC Outpost AND BANDIT CAMP except that you can also chose to live and sleep at Safe Zones). NO TURRETS OR SAMS IN SAFE ZONE OTHER THAN THOSE MANAGED BY THE ADMIN AS PEACE KEEPERS. ANY "TOOL" THAT CAN KILL A HUMAN WILL CAUSE YOU TO BE SHOT BY THE TURRETS. KEEP THEM OFF OF YOUR TOOL BELT. IF AN NPC, (SCIENTIST, BEAR, WOLF) GETS INSIDE SAFE ZONE THEY CAN NOT HARM YOU. THE SAFE ZONE IS JUST THAT --- SAFE!!!! RESPECT IT.
RULES ABOUT LIVING IN SAFE ZONE::::: YOUR BASE IN THE SAFE ZONE MUST HAVE A WOODEN SIGN ON THE OUTSIDE AS TO WHO THE BASE BELONGS TO (all authorized TEAM members)(3 MAX), YOUR TC AND CHESTS CAN NOT HAVE LOCKS SO THE ADMIN CAN INSPECT AS NECESSARY. YOU, OF COURSE, SHOULD LOCK ANY DOORS, BUT SINCE RAIDING IS NOT ALLOWED IN THE SAFE ZONE YOU HAVE NO REASON TO LOCK YOUR TC OR CHESTS. LOCKS ON CHESTS AND TC WILL BE REMOVED OR CHESTS DISTROYED IF IN NON COMPLIANCE AND INSPECTION WAS NECESSARY. ONLY AN ADMIN WILL HAVE ACCESS TO INSPECT YOUR STORAGE. VENDING MACHINES IN THE SAFE ZONE CAN ONLY SELL ITEMS YOU RECEIVED FROM CRAFTING, MINING, OR EARNED FROM LOOTING BARRELS AND SMASHING ROADSIDE BOXES. NO ITEMS FROM RAIDS CAN BE STORED IN OR SOLD IN SAFE ZONE VENDING MACHINES, OR IN SAFE ZONE BASES. NO ROCKETS OR EXPLOSIVES CAN BE OWNED, SOLD OR MANUFACTURED INSIDE OF THE SAFE ZONE. ALSO NO SALE OF GUNS, AMMO AND/OR EXPLOSIVES IN VENDING MACHINES INSIDE SAFE ZONE.
LAST WORD SAFE ZONES:: IF YOU DECIDE TO BE A RAIDER THEN CLOSE YOUR SAFE ZONE BASE AND BUILD ELSEWHERE.
RULE # 6 ONCE RAIDING BEGINS (DAY 8) AND IF YOU DO NOT LIVE INSIDE THE SAFE ZONE I AM NOT ABLE TO PLAY COP FOR YOU. THAT MEANS IF YOU ARE A NEWBIE IT IS BEST FOR YOU TO ONLY BUILD IN THE SAFE ZONE. I STILL EXPECT RESPECT FOR NEWBIES WHERE EVER THEY BUILD, BUT STUPID IS STUPID. ALSO RAIDERS WHO ARE AT HIGH LEVELS OF SKILL SHOULD MOVE ON TO OTHER SERVERS, YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE ANY MORE WHEN RAIDING IS YOUR MAIN GOAL.
RULE # 7 THIS SERVER IS A BE KIND TO NEWBIES PLACE. BE HELPFUL, NOT HATEFUL. WHEN RAIDING DO NOT PICK ON THE WEAKER PLAYERS JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN BEAT THEM.... BE NICE EVEN IN RAIDING. NO HATE SPEECH, SIGNS OR TEXT WILL BE ALLOWED. RAIDING IS TO BE A MINOR PART OF THE FUN ON THIS SERVER AND IT IS FOR STEALING SOMEONES STUFF AND PROVING YOUR THE BIG COCK IN TOWN. IT'S NOT FOR RUINING OTHER PLAYERS FUN. DO NOT DESTROY THEIR BASE AND DO NOT KILL THEM IF THEY ARE SLEEPING DURING THE RAID AND DO NOT LOCK THEM IN OR OUT OF THEIR BASE. ALLOW THEM TO START OVER. TAKE THEIR LOOT AND MOVE ON. DON'T BE MEAN !
I want everyone to feel welcome and have of fun. I promise you no admin will ever be a raider, and will only kill when attacked. Please help out New Players as much as you can and as much as they would like. Rust is a rough place to live but it does not have to be a mean place to play. BE NICE TO EACH OTHER!!!! AGAIN, NO DICKHEADS ALLOWED!!!
When I am online say hi and ask for help. I will always do MY best to make this a fun place to play.
