PERP Rules

FAILURE TO ABIDE BY THE SERVER RULES WILL RESULT IN A BAN.

If you have a problem with anything occurring in game, please use !report to send a report to a staff member. Please include as much information as possible, including location, what occurred, and who was involved.

As of January 19 2017 /me weapon binds have been eliminated since our new automatic bind system has been implemented! This means you don't have to do any /me's for your weapons, the server will handle all of this for you!

Be aware that you no longer will see any /me unless you can see them this includes through windows.

All users must yield to emergency vehicles. Stay away from them unless they tell you to pass. The only time you are allowed to run from them is if you have a valid RP reason. Valid reasons include but are not limited to:

You kill someone, and a police officer physically sees you, and begins chasing you immediately for that reason.
A government official sees you indulging yourself in illegal drugs and a police officer physically sees you and begins chasing you immediately for that reason.

You may have a maximum of 6 lights per base, and all of which can be pointed as a specific area. Lights cannot be behind props (making them invincible).
Ladders cannot be used as balancing beams.
