BloodDust SantosRP Rules




――――――――――――
Roleplay Definitions
――――――――――――
FailRP (Failure to roleplay): Failing or refusing to roleplay a situation. This includes but is not limited to; unrealistic behavior, speaking out of character (OOC), not listening to reasonable demands, not roleplaying fear in situations where normal people would be, etc. Keep in mind that you're playing a reasonable character. Not yourself, not John Wick, not Superman.

OOC (Out-of-character): You must stay in character at all times. Speaking as if you're not playing a character is strictly prohibited.

RDM (Random deathmatch): Killing players without a valid RP reason and/or initiation.

VDM (Vehicle deathmatch): Killing/running over players, on purpose, without a valid RP reason and/or gang initiation. Getting hit by a car due to negligence is not VDM.

NLR (New life rule): Upon death you may remember your friends, belongings, etc. You may not remember enemies, return to the scene of your death or return to the previous roleplay scenario until 5 minutes has passed, do anything that you would've done as if your death didn't happen. Have some common sense.

Failure to value life: You must value your life and others at all times. When being held at gunpoint you may not pull out your weapon and try to fight or run away, unless a fair distance separates you. You may, however, drive away if in a vehicle. You must comply to reasonable demands (Simon says is not a valid reason to execute anyone). You may not initiate on a group unrealistically larger than yours. You may not roleplay a suicidal person.

Combat logging: You may not log off while; in a roleplay situation, awaiting death timer to end, someone is waiting to steal your stuff, etc. Logging off to disrupt RP or hinder anyone is strictly forbidden. You may log off while in jail as the timer still counts down while you're gone.

Metagaming: You may not utilize information that your character would have no way of knowing. This includes abusing in-game mechanics, such as the third person vehicle camera to look over walls.

Powergaming: You may not state that you're doing something that the game does not allow to gain an unfair advantage. For example: I'm knocking you out or I have a gun in my pocket aimed at you.

Initiation: You cannot assault people without proper roleplay initiation that stems from you or your group in all situations. Initiation lasts 15 minutes before you must re-initiate. You may not
powergame or deem the situation as an invocation of initiation while being detained by a police officer.

Common sense: These rules are very common sense heavy. Meaning that just because a rule isn't here or worded in a certain way, doesn't mean it isn't punishable. Think before you act.

IRL transactions: Selling items, weapons, money, ect. for IRL money will result in a permanent ban from Project Steele. We do not give people permission to make profit off of our servers.

If caught trying to find loop holes and or ways around these rules you may be punished! Admins decision.
