# Server Rules

**1. No racism, homophobia, sexism, hate speech, or discriminatory slurs.** This includes slurs, offensive jokes, or targeted harassment toward another player. Keep the server respectful.

**2. No mic-spamming or ear-rape.** Do not scream into your microphone, play loud/annoying sounds, spam soundboards, or intentionally make excessive noises to disrupt other players.

**3. No harassment or bullying.** Do not repeatedly target, annoy, insult, or follow another player just to ruin their experience. Have fun, but know when to stop.

**4. Do not intentionally stall rounds.** Teaming is allowed when appropriate, but intentionally preventing the round from progressing or refusing to play the objective is not.

**5. Do not intentionally team-kill or harm teammates.** Accidental kills happen, but intentionally killing teammates without a valid roleplay or gameplay reason is not allowed.

**6. No suicide teaming or throwing.** Do not intentionally kill yourself, throw away your life, or sabotage your team simply to benefit another player.

**7. No exploiting or abusing bugs.** Do not use glitches, exploits, unintended mechanics, or bugged areas to gain an unfair advantage or negatively affect the server.

**8. No advertising.** Advertising other servers, Discords, communities, social media, or services through voice chat, text chat, intercom, or other methods is not allowed without staff permission.

**9. Keep conversations appropriate.** Sexual, excessively graphic, or otherwise inappropriate conversations and content are not allowed. This includes inappropriate names, audio, messages, and media.

**10. Do not intentionally ruin other players' experiences.** This includes griefing, trolling, baiting, repeatedly interfering with someone's gameplay, or doing things specifically to make them leave.

**11. Do not impersonate staff.** Do not claim to be an administrator, moderator, developer, or other staff member when you are not one.

**12. Do not abuse server commands or permissions.** Any attempt to misuse commands, permissions, plugins, or staff tools to gain an advantage or disrupt the server may result in punishment.

**13. Follow staff instructions.** If a staff member asks you to stop doing something or gives you an instruction regarding the server, follow it. If you believe a punishment was unfair, handle it through the proper appeal process.

**14. Do not evade punishments.** Ban evading, punishment evasion, alternate accounts, or intentionally bypassing restrictions may result in additional punishment.

**15. Staff have the final say.** Staff reserve the right to punish behavior that is clearly disruptive, abusive, or against the spirit of the server, even if it is not specifically listed above.

**By playing on the server, you agree to follow these rules. Ignorance of the rules is not an excuse.**
