Server Rules
*Updated April 4th 2025.
No RDM (Random Death Match), VDM (Vehicle Death Match), or KOS (Kill On Sight)
All server conflict needs to have substantial RP leading up to the conflict
No Metagaming or Stream Sniping
You cannot use any information that your character did not receive in character (IC).
This includes anything you may have seen on another players stream.
No Fail RP
Your character must act in a way that makes sense in a real-life situation.
This includes cop-baiting.
We do not have a traditional NVL (No Value of Life) rule, but we do expect players to roleplay injuries appropriately based on the situation.
You choose what injuries your character sustains, but they should match the level of risk involved.
Example: If your character pulls a weapon while at gunpoint and gets shot down, you should RP serious injuries. It wouldn't make sense to just walk it off with vest hits or be robbing a store 15 minutes later.
Use your best judgment. If you’re unsure, staff is here to help guide you.
No Powergaming
You cannot force another player to RP in a certain way.
You MUST provide counterplay.
You and your characters must be at least 18 years old.
You must speak and understand English fluently at all times.
Be respectful. Do not be toxic or breed toxicity of any kind.
Supernatural RP
Supernatural RP is allowed, but you must provide plausible deniability.
You cannot force others to believe in supernatural RP or make it an undeniable reality within the RP world.
Restricted RP (Requires Admin Ticket & Approval)
Serial Killer RP – You must open a ticket and receive staff approval before engaging in serial killer RP.
Government Corruption RP – Any RP involving government corruption (such as high-level law enforcement or public officials abusing power) must be approved through a ticket.
Bomb Threat RP - Any RP involving bomb threats, whether real or fake, must be approved through a ticket. Staff will review the scenario based on the reasoning, target, and overall context before granting permission.
Groups and Gangs
There are no restrictions on forming a group or gang
However, once your group or gang reaches 6 or more members, you must open a gang registration ticket in Discord.
In the ticket, you must provide:
Character names of all members.
Discord names of all members (they will be added to the ticket).
Group/Gang name.
The ticket will remain open until the group disbands, allowing staff to keep track of group activity and providing a direct line of communication between your group and staff.
Department Leadership Restriction
If you are in both PD and EMS departments, as a player, you may only hold a command role in one of them.
For PD, this applies to command roles, which are defined as rank 100-300 in the PD structure.

For Paleto Bank and Pacific Bank, the maximum is 6 players.
The total number of players involved in the heist at any point from start to finish cannot exceed the max limit for that heist type.
Example: If a bank heist is started with 2 people inside, up to 2 more players can be involved later, for a total of 4 players maximum across the entire heist scene.
