Thread: Possible Update to server rules?.

Recently a couple players were banned for using scripted in vehicles and/or equipment.
The number one rule is "1. Hacking or cheating in any way will get you banned."
I hope most players would realize that using scripted in vehicles or equipment would be a wildly unfair advantage and be considered cheating. When an admin or another veteran player notices that someone is using scripted in equipment it will be obvious to them that something is not right, however the player using it might not necessarily know themselves. Anyone can pick up/hop into something scripted in and a new player to the server might not know that said items are not supposed to be in the world. Ignorance is not much of a defense, but the current server rules would not help explain why a new player may have been kicked/banned.
I would suggest a expansion or addition of the rules.:

1. Hacking or cheating in any way will get you banned.

2. Scripting/Spawning equipment or vehicles into the game world or inventory is strictly forbidden (BAN). Use of any equipment or vehicles spawned in by another player and not part of the servers intentional game world (KICK/BAN)

3. Support your team and your teams objective. If you are playing as OPFOR or BLUFOR you will help and support that team. This includes base building, side objectives, attack and defense. If you want to do your own thing go independent. Failure to support your respective team will result in a kick or ban. No stealing of team assets.

4. We will have a zero tolerance for intentional team killing.

5. Respect other players. This includes any and all racist type actions which includes custom skins, names, chat etc.

6. The use of global VoN is strictly forbidden. Global text chat can be used on a limited basis. Do not spam global text chat, use it to whine about your death or brag about your kill. Do not spam global text chat in any way.

7. Respect the administration of the server. In game is not the place to handle administrative issues. If a buddy gets banned then direct him to the forums. If you are told to do something by the administration do so. If you feel you have been abused then report to the admin abuse section of the forums and plead your case.

8. Camping the north island and killing people who spawn in is a bannable offense (this is the island everybody spawns into before the spawn select
screen pops up).


Also is there a way to have these rules posted in game in the re-spawn menu that way they are seen every time you spawn.?

I think this would be a good addition. Its true, some people may not know that something is scripted in and pick it up or use it on impulse. Yeah, it will be hard to deduce ignorance from intention, but adding this cushion to the rule is a good idea imo.

There is so many custom Implementations of Wasteland It would be a Good Idea, also List that Armed Hunters are Not in this Mod.
