NLR rule

NLR exists and please use your best judgement to determine whether or not it is okay to return to a place after death. Most people don't care if you died to a hit at PD and come back. People will care if you died in a raid and come back. If you want to play it safe don't return to your place of death until the time is up, no one likes a sore loser. In this section, there are examples of what is considered NLR and what doesn't usually matter to most people.

And if you did die in a raid/heist, its simply over. You CANNOT come back and continue raiding/defending. Accept that you lost and move on. Don't come back to the raid.

Time Limits:

Raiding Cooldown: There is no cooldown but you cannot raid the same person again within 20 minutes
Max Kidnapping Time: 5 minutes
Max Raiding Raid Time: 10 minutes Max Raiding Time
Cooldown for raiding the PD: 15 minutes
Max Mug Amount: $1,000
NLR Time Limit: Read NLR rules above/Until the raid or heist is over. 

NLR Examples: 

Going back to the road you died on to a hitman to see your friends ALLOWED
Going back to the road you died on to a hitman to kill the hitman NOT ALLOWED
Jimmy going back to Jimmy's house after raiders raided it and killed him NOT ALLOWED
Going back to Jimmy's house you were raiding after you died NOT ALLOWED
Going back to finish a heist as a raider after you died NOT ALLOWED
Going back to defend a heist as a CP after you died NOT ALLOWED
Going back into the PD as a cop after you got killed by a Bounty Hunter ALLOWED

How to be a Good Player

A section dedicated to the people who have 3 braincells. The BAD section is parallel with the GOOD section

• RP situations out. This is an RP server at its core
• If you're going to provide negative feedback, make it constructive
• Use your brain and read the rules, you can't possibly complain about "Well this is how other servers do it so I didn't know"
• Being warned / kicked banned means you did something wrong which you should learn from it
• Every time you're brought into a sit that means you did something wrong which you should learn from it
• Calling staff for issues you haven't tried to solve will have you put on the bad boy list (exceptions for this is mass rdm / nlr)

Examples of a BAD Player:

• Calling staff because he doesn't know how to change jobs
• Calling staff because he doesn't know if his base is allowed
• Calling staff because he doesn't know what his job does
• Calling staff because someone called them a hurtful word
• Calling staff because someone just killed them
• Calling staff that explains only part of the issue
• Calling staff when the Mayor adds a harsh law
• Calling staff when a cop arrests them on either accident or purpose
• Calling staff when he needs a door unowned
• Arguing with a player in OOC
• Not listening to staff / claiming a rule doesn't exist so they can do it
• Reporting players and or staff when they have no evidence / non conclusive evidence

Examples of a GOOD Player

• Asking players how to change jobs in chat or in person
• Reading the rules to see if his base is allowed / getting other player's opinions
• Reading the rules / job description to see what his job does
• Voice Chat / Text Chat muting players when they get called a bad word
• Examining the situation of why they died and asking the player why they killed him
• Calling a staff member with the most detail possible to prevent downtime and confusion
• Revolting against the Mayor when a harsh rule is made
• PMing the cop who arrested them when they got randomly arrested
• PMing the player who owns the door to see if they can own it
• Taking a heated argument to local or PM chat
• Accepting what staff tell them. If they have an issue with it, they make a post on the forums explaining why they think they're in the right
• Reporting players / staff with video evidence. No other questions should be asked on a good report. It should 100% conclusive by the original post

Party / Gang Rules

A section dedicated to people who don't know how RP as a party / gang. Using parties / gangs to combat other people usually results in confusion. Just because you are in a party / gang with somebody doesn't mean you are automatically "involved" with their situations. Here is how to do it correctly.

• If you're going to kill someone because they attacked your party / gang member, make sure they know you're together. Not doing so will cause confusion and most likely result in a sit which no one wants.
• Being in a party or gang doesn't mean you will not die / be raided / kicked / harassed by your own party and gang. Don't call staff members for internal issues you're dealing with.
• Deal with situations using role play. If you aren't role playing together or they have no reason to suspect that you are connected in any way, it makes no RP sense to randomly pull out a gun and shoot them.

The BAD section is parallel with the GOOD section

Examples of a BAD party / gang member

• Sniping a player from across the map because his party member got mugged
• Attacking a player because someone just killed their party / gang member when you were no where near by / not visible
• Calling staff when their party / gang just raided them
• Calling staff when their party / gang just kicked them because he paid 500k to be in there

Examples of a GOOD party / gang member

• Running up to the player who killed their party / gang member and telling them they are about to die for killing their member
• Killing a cop for cuffing your party / gang member you are role playing with (fishing, mugging, kidnapping players together, etc)
• Leaving the party / gang
• Never join another party / gang with those people and spread the word

Mayor Rules:

• You cannot assist criminals or commit crimes
• Make your laws something that your officers can enforce, you cannot make rules that allow players / CP to kill each other
• You can not make a law to make someone above the law because it breaks roleplay (ex: JohnSteven22 is immune to all laws because he is my friend)
• You can override any default law except for making killing, printers, or stealing legal
• You laws must follow some sort of RP guidelines. Making them stupid will result in you being demoted and or kicked. No one likes a dumb mayor.
• Your laws must not be so harsh where it makes other players leave the server. They will vote you as an unfair Mayor in which you will be demoted.
• Firing your CP for no RP reason is not allowed. This is a RP server please use RP or you may get removed from the job.
• Laws can not target an individual group, class, job, or person. Make your laws general, and make them effect the entire town. You can restrict areas of the map, but not force people to be there.

Misc Rules

Rules that generally don't have to be said but are here for the people who need to see them

• Killing the cop / mugger who has just fined / mugged you after you paid a fine is failrp
• Do not force other players to get stuck, if they can't move it's not RP
• Killing people at NPCs has no purpose, you don't gain anything and therefore is RDM and a bannable offense
• Don't fading door abuse
• You cannot build on the sidewalk if you are not a hobo, except as CP (can build on the road/sidewalk for roadblocks or crosswalks)
• Fading door abuse is when you explicitly use your keypad or bound key to toggle the door to shoot out of in an instant. You can do this when no one else is around but do not do it when you're getting raided.
• Hitmen do not need to advert accepting / competing for failing a hit
• A public place is a place with open doors such as a restaurant. For your base to be considered a public place, you must place a sign indicating it as a "Public Place." You may not have money-making entities inside/it will be treated as a building sign. If the place does have closed and locked doors and the owners refuse to let you in that room, the place is considered raidable.
• NLR Exists, don't be stupid
• Also do NOT return to watch a raid, this breaks nlr rules and you will get in the way of others if you are trying to or not.
• Cops should not be returning to the PD if there is a heist if they died
• If you're heisting the bank, you cannot go back. You must call heist again at some other time.
• If you're shot at, you're allowed to fire back even if they miss

• Do not demote people from jobs for breaking server rules, it is intended for RP demotes only (unless there are no staff online). Ex: Demoting a cop for not arresting someone without a firearm license
• You may not call a raid or PD heist while inside the building
• Intentionally lowering people's framerates with a ton of moving materials / flashing materials will have you warned and then punished
• Kidnapping people makes you KoS as you're a threat to everyone around you
• Misleading adverts are not allowed, making 3 lines of random trading advert then adding a subtle (pd raid) at the end is stupid. If a Staff ask you to remove it then please do so.
• Spawning props in public then making them no gravity before letting them fly is not allowed, it ruins some people's FPS and is dumb in general.
• You may request a staff member as a middleman for large (1m+) transactions. This service is dependent on staff availability.
• You can micspam as any job but be respectful if someone asks you to stop. If they warn you to stop and you don't comply or move away within a reasonable amount of time, they can kill you.
