SERVER RULES


NO KILLING OF OTHER PLAYERS / NO GRIEFING OTHER PLAYERS

Do not kill other players, including sleepers. There will be specific areas where PvP is allowed (PvP Arenas, etc), and specific occasions where PvP will be tolerated. Griefing other players will not be tolerated. Do not aggro NPC entities for the sole purpose of causing them to attack other players, or trick NPCs into attacking other players. This also includes player bases, vehicles, or other deployables. Everything is logged, and breaking these rules will result in a server ban. 


NO LOOTING / STEALING FROM OTHER PLAYERS
Do not touch any bodies, loot bags, backpacks, or dropped weapons that do not belong to you. Do not loot sleepers or any other players. If you find a loot bag or backpack laying on the ground, and it belongs to someone else, just leave it alone. They are probably coming back for it. 


NO RAIDING OF OTHER PLAYER'S BASES

Do not break into a base that does not belong to you. Do not enter someone else's base without their approval. There are no exceptions - violating this rule will result in a permanent ban. If you didn't build it, don't touch it. 


NO TRAPS OR TURRETS AT BASES OR PUBLIC AREAS

Auto turrets, Sam sites, shotgun traps, bear traps, etc, are not allowed to be placed outside of bases or any public areas of the map where other players could be hit and injured. Traps are ONLY allowed inside of bases, as long as they don't aim outside of the base. 


NO TRESPASSING

Please respect the privacy of other players. Do not enter or investigate any base or structure you did not build, even if it is unlocked. Consider it private property, and leave it alone.

Any public structures, such as the Back Roads Depot, the PVP arena, and others, will be clearly marked, and can be entered freely. Also any areas which contain vending machines are considered public, and can be visited.


NO TWIG BASES
Please upgrade your base as soon as possible. Upgrade to at least Wood for better protection. Twig bases are easily damaged or destroyed, and will decay rather quickly. We are not responsible for twig bases that decay, or items lost in a twig base that has decayed. 


USE LOCKS FOR BASE AND DEPLOYABLES
Make sure to place keylocks or code locks on everything you want to protect from unauthorized access. Almost everything is lockable - vehicles, doors, boxes, furnaces, car lifts, planters, etc. 


LIMIT SIZE / NUMBER OF BASES
While we wish our players to show their personalities and exercise their creativity, an abnormally large base, or multiple bases spread out across the map can hinder and cause negative impacts on server performance. Try to keep these numbers to a reasonable level (no bases which take up more than half of a grid, don't have 10 different bases around the map, etc) 


DO NOT BUILD TOO HIGH NEAR MONUMENTS
Do not build more than 3 levels high in the same map grid as a monument (this includes windmills). Many players have reduced LODs, and the base will not pop up on their screen until the last moment when flying into a monument. 


ONE HELI TOWER OR BRADLEY BASE PER PLAYER
If you intend to attempt fighting the patrol helicopter (Karen) or the Bradley APC at Launch site (Brad), please limit the bases created for this to one each per player. This will keep the server from being overrun by excessive bases. 


NO DECAY AND VEHICLES
This is a "no decay" server. This means as long as a base has an authorized Tool Cabinet, and is upgraded and not left as twig, it will not decay. There is no need to put resources in the Tool Cabinet.

Vehicles parked in the radius of a Tool Cabinet WILL NOT decay. Vehicles parked outside of the radius of a Tool Cabinet will still decay, but this can be slowed down by making sure they are covered top and sides (so sunlight cannot reach them). Built Boat decay can be stopped or significantly slowed down by leaving them parked on a deployed boat station, and leaving it in edit mode.


ONE VEHICLE OF EACH TYPE PER PLAYER
To avoid server overload, please limit each mode of transportation to one per player (1 horse + 1 bicycle + 1 motorcycle + 1 motorcycle with sidecar + 1 car + 1 Mini Heli + 1 Attack Heli + 1 Scrap Heli + 1 motorboat + 1 tugboat + 1 RH1B + 1 Patrol Boat) 


TWO BUILT DEEP SEA BOATS PER SOLO / TEAM
To avoid server overload, please limit each team to 2 built boats for the Deep Sea. Solo players are also limited to 2 built boats 


BUILD WITH COURTESY AND RESPECT
The maps we use are large. There is plenty of room for everyone to build and have fun. There is no reason to build close to or right on top of another player without their permission. Breaking this rule will result in the offending base being removed, with or without warning. 


CALL OUT MONUMENTS AND AIRDROPS
To prevent misunderstandings and help things run smooth, please call out in chat when you are on your way to visit a major monument or grab a random air drop. Personal airdrops must be called as the canisters are deployed. Major monuments include Launch Site, Airfield, Junkyard, Power Plant, Satellite Dish, Dome, Trainyard, Giant Excavator, Harbor, Ferry Terminal, and Water Treatment Plant. 


NO ADVERTISING
There will be no advertising for other Rust servers allowed. Any signs or artwork advertising for other servers will be removed, and the player may be banned. Signs announcing a player's Youtube or twitch channel will be allowed, as long as they are not disruptive or over the top. 


NO HACKING / CHEATING
This is self explanatory. Hacking and/or cheating will not be tolerated here, and will result in an immediate server ban. Global Chat, Voice chat, signs, artwork, character clothing, etc. Breaking this rule will result in a ban from the server.


NO OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE
This is an 18+ server, but certain topics are not allowed. No politics, religion, racism, sexism, nothing graphically sexual, and no vulgar talk. Anything that can be taken as offensive or said with hatred is not allowed. Profanity is allowed, within reason. This includes Global Chat, Voice chat, signs, artwork, character clothing, etc. Breaking this rule will result in a ban from the server. 


NO TOXIC BEHAVIOR
Be kind and polite while playing on the server. Any toxic behavior of any kind will not be tolerated, and will result in an immediate ban. BE POLITE, BE RESPECTFUL, OR BE SOMEWHERE ELSE. 


ENGLISH CHAT ONLY
This is a North American server, and messages typed into Global Chat will only be acknowledged or addressed when in English.
