		Staff Rules
		8.1 - Do not add yourself to roles you are not appointed to in the whitelist system. This excludes VIP roles.

		8.2 - As a member of staff you are expected to act in a mature manner and not misbehave.

		8.3 - You may not abuse the whitelist system to add friends to jobs.

		8.4 - You may not abuse any commands such as !explode or freeze other staff members using the physgun.

		8.5 - If you are to join another server and receive a staff rank on that server you will lose all staff privileges on Multiverse.

		1. All staff members must keep a professional status in the server (outside of Role Play). This means Do not Joke around about a serious matter, such as a rule breaking or a possible ban. It should be taken very seriously.

		2. Never should you act hostile towards a player, even if they act hostile towards you. This is to prevent any hostility towards our players. A calm Admin will help solve a problem much faster than a rude Admin.

		3. Do not "Troll". If a player is "Trolling" you do not "Troll" back. This goes back to Rule A2, "Never should you act hostile towards a player, even if they act hostile towards you." Simply Kick them for the reason "Trolling".

		4. Random Kicks, Bans, Slaying, Freeze, Jails, etc. are NOT ok. They are used for Administrative Purpose ONLY. Do not Jokingly Freeze, Jail, Slay, etc. This is considered Staff Abuse.

		5. Staff are NOT to be nocliping, using god mode, teleporting, etc. unless they "On Duty". This Prevents players from calling Admin Abuse if you are RPing, or have a RP job on. (See Section B for more information.)

		6. Do NOT randomly pick up players. Only pick up players to move them to an acceptable "Admin Sit" area. or to grab them if they run from an admin sit, or other reasons that fit under this.

		7. Respect each other equally. You will respect each other, I will not put up with disrespect. You WILL be demoted.

		8. Do not pick favourites. That means if your friend RDMs 10 and disrespects everyone. Don't just kick him or give him a warning. Ban him like you would anyone else.

		9. ALWAYS take a player into a sit before you warn, kick, or ban them. If you are unable to due to a lack of cooperation, feel free to kick/ban them.

		10. ALWAYS prove a reason when warning, kicking, or banning someone.

		11. DO NOT whitelist yourself to job roles you have not gained in-character. (This excludes VIP Roles)

		12. When whitelisting people to VIP jobs always check it on the forums that they have donated.

		13. Do not give friends any special treatment, deal with them as you would any other user.

		14. Staff members must have [MVG] within their steam names.

		B) "On Duty"

		1. Staff can RPing. If they do not wish to RP, they may switch to an "On Duty" job and handle Rule Breakings.

		2. Staff Must maintain a professional Status when "On Duty". (See Rule A1 for more details)

		3. Staff are allowed to Noclip, Teleport, have god mode, etc. ONLY when "On Duty".

		4. Staff are NOT to be bothering RPers. You may check in and fly in and say hi, but do NOT bother them. If they ask you to leave, leave.

		5. This is NOT an RP job. Do NOT Partake in any RP events as this job.

		6. Only exception is if you are RPing and there is no "On Duty" Staff on. You may handle thing as an RP class. ONLY to handle the issue and return.

		C) Interacting with other staff

		1. Respect each other Staff equally.You are not above anyone. You will respect each other, I will not put up with disrespect. You WILL be demoted.

		2. If a Staff member is reported by a player for breaking a rule, he must be taken into a sit with the accuser. Remember you are Innocent until proven guilty. A Staff member one or high rank above must run the sit. (Ex. A Admin must run the sit if a Moderator is accused, or a Senior Admin must run the sit of a accused Admin, or a Senior Admin can run a sit of a accused moderator, Etc.) Also when in the sit you cannot treat the accused staff member different, or better than the player, they are both the same in trials. If there is no high staff member on tell the player to make a post of the forums in the Staff report section, or have 2 of the same rank run the sit if possible.

		3. Do not promote anyone. This Applies for Staff Rankings as well. Do not Promote your friend or any previous staff. You Will be demoted.

		4. Senior Admin's words are final. They give the final judgement on a rule or argument.

		5. Do not ban staff. Only Head Admin+ can. Make sure you have a valid reason for kicking the staff. Do not kick staff of the same rank. (Unless they are abusing there powers EXTREMELY.)

		D) Punishments

		1. Be fair and Just. I don't want to see a perma-ban for someone being annoying or RDMing a few people.

		2. Perma-bans are only OK if they player is constantly advertising a server after you have kick and/or muted them, when a player is constantly spamming the chat about how this server sucks, a DDOS Threat., or hacking.

		3. Generally, A Good Ban length is 1 week after you have constantly kicked them. Depending on the player. If the player is new to the server feel free to ban longer. But if the player has a few hours on they must like the server, give them some leeway.

		4. Please use the "!warn" system as much as possible. 3 active warns and they will be kicked automatically, 5 active warns and they will be banned for a while. This is to prevent players feeling as tho they got an unfair treatment.

		4A. Be reasonable with the warning system. If they go on an RDMing spree (3+ kill for no reason), don't just give them a warning. Take them to a sit and ask them why. If they give you a "Bullshit" reason suck as: "I dont know", "I wanted to", or "yolo". Ban them for 1 day. If they didn't know or are new give them a warning and monitor them.

		5. RDM (Random Death Match): If they didn't know give them a verbal warning, if they did know what they did give them a written warning (!warn). If they RDM during a sit, kick them.

		6. Disrespect/harassment/trolling/prejudice/racism/etc: 1 warn after 2 verbal warns then kick them for Disrespect, ban for 2 week for the rest.

		7. FailRP (This is a lot of different things, it is when someone does something that their RP role would not/can't do.): Bring the player and explain what they did wrong, give them a written warning.

		8. Hacking/exploiting: Perma-ban, no exceptions!

		9. DDOS Threats or Trying to crash the server: Perma-ban, only exception is if the player did not know what he was doing would crash the server.

		10. Advertising other servers: Perma-ban, no exceptions!

		11. Chat/Mic spam: Ask the player to stop, if they do not, Gag/mute the player along with a written warning. If they continue kick them, If they come back and continue, 2 day ban.

		12. Links to any Objectionable material (which includes but is not limited to pornography, "shock sites", viruses, phishing sites and hate groups): Written warning along with a kick.

		13. Impersonate any member of the Staff, or claim to be a member of the Staff: 2 week ban if the player has some time on the server (12+ hours) otherwise it is a perma-ban.

		14. Alternative accounts to avoid bans: Perma-ban both accounts.. Arguing with the staff: DOUBLE the punishment.

		15. Evading Punishment (When staff member tries to speak to you about a rule you have broken): DOUBLE the punishment.
