Some simple clarifications regarding engagements and a change to exploiting section. Ever since we added bolt cutters which are readily available gaining access to houses is simple and in the past we allowed people to vault and jump into houses since there was no other way. This change simply returns it to how it was before.
Chapter 1: No Random Death Match [RDM]
Killing or tazing another player without any role-play will result in administrative action.
If you have been fired at, returning fire is permitted.If someone commits a direct hostile action to you, you may kill them.
If someone commits a direct hostile action to you, you may kill them.
Ex: Lockpicking/stealing your vehicle, rotor tapping, bolt cutting, attempting to escort hostages
Ex: Being armed/pointing a gun in your general direction and/or verbally insulting are NOT considered hostile actions, neither is ramming/running over someone whether or not you believe it is intentional.
RP has a 5 minute window, once engaged you are still engaged for this amount of time.
Death ends the engagement. Anyone who is revived by a medic or epi-pened must engage/be re-engaged.
Do not excessively down/taze another player when not needed.
Chapter 18: Miscellaneous
The below rules/guideline are things that do not fit into other areas but still need to be followed.

You may not drive a vehicle into the water to prevent it from being stolen, searched, ect
You may not destroy property to prevent it being searched/raided.
Extreme harassment may result in a ban.
Switching to a different account after getting banned with your main account may result in both accounts being banned and for longer.
If a player goes to the extent of using a game mechanic to prevent other players from playing the game, this can be considered as massive trolling.
Anyone found to be doing nothing but trolling on the server in a severe manner may receive a ban.
The RP window is 5 minutes so abide by this in regards to situations such as shooting, logging out, storing vehicles, ect.
Killing someone in restraints is considered Fail RP.
You cannot restrain someone outside of a redzone and then bring them into a redzone just to kill them. This is also FailRP.
Exploiting is considered as abusing an in-game bug or using a game mechanic in a way that it's not intended to be used.
Vaulting/restraining/escorting through windows is exploitng
