Rules Read!

1. Use some common sense, remember that this is a roleplay server.
- This means don't act like an idiot. This is subject to interpretation, but it should be pretty easy to tell if you're being a jerk or not.

2. Under no circumstances should you metagame, or use OOC information IC
- Metagaming is defined as using information you learned in character (through roleplay!) out of character, such as OOC chat
- Under no circumstances should two of your own characters share thoughts.
-'Metabaiting' Is also forbidden, This is giving people OOC information to intentionally lure them to you without directly saying it.

3. Avoid powergaming, or doing excessively overpowered actions through /me or /it
- A good example of powergaming would be "/me snaps your neck and you die haha" This is bad!
- Don't just pull out a gun while you're being held hostage, or at gunpoint
- Don't just pull out a gun from nowhere, this should be self-explanatory

4. Don't use IC chat for anything other than talking in character
- This includes using IC chat for OOC
- This also includes spamming the chat with nonsense

5. Don't use props/flags for anything other than they're meant to be used for.
- This includes propsurfing, propkilling, proppushing, and propblocking.
- You shouldn't spawn props that seem out of place. Don't put a giant computer monitor in a bar, that's just silly.
- Abusing your flags will result in them being removed and possibly a kick or ban for your abuse.

6. Never kill or hurt someone unless you have a legitimate reason. (Abbreviated as RDM, or Random DeathMatch)
- Think before you shoot someone. If the only reason you want to kill them is because it's fun, it's RDM!

7. Don't use exploits in the gamemode to your advantage. Abusing exploits will almost always result in a permanent ban.

8. We ask that you maintain a legitimate character name; you should have both a first and last name.
- Don't name yourself after a celebrity or someone wel known, that's just dumb.
- No "typical" minge names, Eg. "bob good"

9. Don't interfere with passive roleplay by acting like an idiot. This goes hand-in-hand with rule #1.

10. Never take matters into your own hands. If someone is breaking the rules or doing something inappropriate, contact an admin.
- This is called, 'Backseat admin'

11. Disconnecting to avoid a ban, kick, or similar will only double your ban time.

12. Don't switch characters or disconnect to avoid a roleplaying situation. Will be punished severely, don't do it.

13. If you start an RP, plan on finishing it. Don't leave an RP situation half-finished and expect someone else to finish it. Doing this will cause your RP to simply be voided.

14. PMs are always completely and totally OOC.
-Using PM's to metagame will only double your punishment as you clearly know it is against the rules and think that we cannot check the logs.

15. Respect NLR. If you're killed, don't go right back to where you died to grab your stuff. Don't report your death to the MPF either. If you are permakilled or charbanned, your character is considered "dead" and any subsequent characters cannot use any information gathered by your previous character.

16. If your application for a whitelist is accepted, you must wait 2 days until you apply for another whitelist.
- If your application is denied, you must wait 3 days until you can re-apply or apply for a different whitelist. 
-Only apply for one whitelist at a time, applying for more than one means we will have to deny both of them immediately. (Applying for multiple Creatures at once counts as multiple applications.)
- If an application is closed and you apply, it will be instantly denied, there is no "leave it up until it opens"
- Do not reply to an app unless you are giving +/- support or are accepting the app.

17. Hacking/Cheating will result in you being permanently banned from the server, and reported to steam.

18. Do not 'Minge-grab' (Take people's items without role-play or reason).

19. Do not 'Minge-punch/Punch-whore' (Punching people randomly, without RP) This will most likely result in a kick/ban from the server.

20. You can have a racist character, however is someone says they are offended or to stop in LOOC, you should stop straight away.
- Failing to do this will most likely result in your character being banned and a warning issued.

21. ERP Is allowed on the server.
- All ERP needs LOOC permission.
- RapeRP Must be F2B or kept to /pm.
- ERP Bait descriptions are not allowed, Eg. (Large ass ¦ DD Breasts )
- Do not post any ERP lines or actions into the OOC chat.
- Stupid ERP is not allowed, Eg. An antlion or Headcrab ERP'ing with someone, Its just failRP.
- ERP Has to be done with /med (Discrete /me) and away from populated areas, ERP'ing in the plaza is FailRP.

22. Your character is not invincible, you should have a range of strengths and weakness as your character and should RP these as fully as you can. 

23. Disrespect towards server staff and other players will not be tolerated, And will be punished.
- If you need to make a report, do it on the forums following the format.
- Do not flame on the OOC chat.

24. Going AFK In the plaza/highly populated area does not mean you are 'untouchable'.
- Get to some place quiet and go AFK or request for an admin to teleport you somewhere safe.

25. Abuse of any whitelist will result in the whitelist being removed from you.
- This may also affect your future whitelist applications
- High management reserve the right to remove your whitelist at any time if you are abusing.

26. Free-spawners (Headcrabs,Zombie's,Antlions etc) Can only spawn underground. 
- Don't spawn in at the plaza, It's stupid and FailRP.

27. Headcrabs/Zombie's/Antlion's cannot attack nexus unless an event specifically entails it. 

28. If the ratio is broken,Headcrabs/Zombie's/Antlions will be the first to flag down,unless in RP or it is broken by a unit flagging up.

29.  There should only be one creature (Headcrab, Zombie, Antlion) for every MPF unit as long as it doesn't break the ratio.

30.  Creature's are limited to The Condemned zone and Sewers.
- Unless there is an authorised event where they are needed.

31. You MUST Leave at least one week in between denied Admin applications.
- Not leaving one week will cause the app to be denied instantly.

32. S2RP must be used at close range and S2M at far range. Read the S2RP guide for more info.

33.  There must always be at least one more citizen than OTA/MPF unit.

34. Only one resistance police citizen should be flagged up at a time.
- It gets silly when 3 Resistance police and only one citizen is on
- It limits the CitizenRP and is not very realistic.

35. You may only carry 2 bags maximum on you at all times.

36. You may only apply for Scanner if you have the MPF Whitelist.
- You may only apply for Combine Assassin if you have the OTA Whitelist.

37. Your own chars cannot interact with eachother in any way. This can range from passing info from one to another or using another one to help you out in RP.

1. All server rules apply to you. Just because you have a stunstick doesn't mean you are a God who cannot get banned.

2. Do not RDM as an MPF/OTA officer. Punishments are doubled for counts of RDM as MPF/OTA
- Your pistol is mainly for self defense and as a deterrent. Don't use your pistol to "bring anticitizens to justice" by shooting them in the head.
- Using your pistol to bring down an anticitizen is allowed, however use some common sense and aim for the legs.

3. Above the ranks of recruit, you are loyalty implanted. Do not defect from the MPF above RCT without explicit permission from an administrator or above.
- Going rogue because "They killed my family member" is not good enough, that's one of the most generic excuses made.

4. MPF is not all-action. Be ready to roleplay passively.

5. Just because you always have a stunstick does not mean you can hit anyone you like with it.
- Most situations involving the stunstick should constitute a roll; neglecting this can get you demoted.
- Hitting other MPF officers with your stunstick will almost always get your character banned. Don't do it man!
- Don't be a jerk with a stunstick.

6. Don't leave people in jail forever. They're real people, too.
- Leaving people in jail past their release time (this includes forgetting!) can get you demoted. TK is allowed. If you put someone in jail for 30 minutes they can go on another character if they so desire. This only applies to any jail time longer than 7 minutes.
- OTA Are made for capturing or killing, they do not deal with interrogating/giving out verdicts/giving Loyalty points/Etc.

7. Under most circumstances, you do not listen to the OTA, and the OTA do not listen to you.
- Notable exceptions include emergency requests for backup and the Sector Commander.
- Usually in a Combat situation (JW/AJ/AW Or Unrest) The OTA will take control of a situation.

8. Under most circumstances, you are ranked under the City Administrator, but the City Administrator is not obliged to listen to you.
- Notable exceptions include emergency situations and the Sector Commander.

9. You are assigned to a division for a reason.
- Follow your divisional protocols and work.
- Leave other work out of your specialised area to the unit who is specialised in it (Unless there is no one of that division)

10. Do not be a 'Robo-cop.'
- OTA Do not feel any emotions, they are exempt from this rule. (They literally are a robocop..)
- Examples include (But are not limited to)
- Laughing at citizen death at low ranks (Up until 03 you are a citizen in a suit)
- Having NO FearRP towards high ranks/OTA (Again, you would MOST LIKELY fear them...Not always but especially if they are giving orders or telling you off)

11. A Divisional Leader, Commander or the Sectorial Commander have every right to have you demoted/de-serviced.
- This could be if you are not working well
- If you have broke MPF code/conduct
- Do not complain they "RDM'd you" as it was most likely for you doing something wrong.

12. OTA Must not be flagged up unless there is an extreme emergency (JW/AJ/AW/Huge civil unrest)
- They may be flagged up if the Sectorial/CA is online, however if they tell you they are not in need of a guard, you should flag back down.

13. Going 'Rogue' as Overwatch is impossible, they are brainwashed and cannot defect from the UU.
- Doing so will be classed as FailRP
- It will also most likely get your whitelist removed and character banned.
- They follow orders from the CmD/SeC/CA, not following these orders/denying them is also impossible (So long as it is in standards of the UU) and would also be counted as FailRP.

14. The OTA is lead by the OTA CmD, They will follow all orders given by him.
- An OWS would take orders from an EOW.

15. OTA are 'Fearless' and tough, but they are not stupid.
- They would not run into a battlefield if they knew they were going to be shot at from all sides.
- They would obviously take cover and attempt to preserve their life.

16. OTA Must be able to use all the correct codes and conduct in the MPF.
- They are basically implanted with all the UU codes and conduct.
- OTA Is to be played by advanced role-players only.

17. Scanners cannot flag up unless there are 2 or more MPF units also flagged up. Scanners are also not immune to the ratio and can be forced to flag down if MPF cannot due to being in RP.

18. Melee combat against an OfC+ MUST be P2L (Unless both parties agree to a roll)
- This is the same with OTA, Including OTA Assassins. (Again, Unless both parties agree to roll)


1. There is no way for you to magically learn the whereabouts of rebel bases on the map. Sorry.
- Just because you have certain flags, that does not mean you know where the rebel base/rebel groups are.
- Just because your friend is in the resistance doesn't mean you magically know where the rebel base is.

2. The resistance runs themselves, and is organized by whoever is the leader. 
- Someone may be the leader one day, however they may choose someone else, this is all dependant and organised by the resistance themselves.

3. Don't be a dick with a gun.
- Punishments for RDM are doubled for resistance members.
- Don't raid the center city 'just for lulz'; this will get you charbanned.
- Only attack the city/populated area when there are a large amount of you that would stand a chance, if there are 5 CP's and you are the only resistance in your group with you.. Don't attack the nexus/plaza, its stupid and defies FearRP.

4. Do not magically transfer Resistance knowledge from your resistance character to other characters.
- This includes using prior knowledge on your MPF character who would know nothing otherwise.

5. Robbing/killing citizens/Civil workers is forbidden.
- You may take a request device from a citizen/civil worker.
- You may only rob/kill with due reason, not because 'They saw our base' only if they have done something horrendous towards you or your group (Eg. Telling the MPF your location and names)
- Don't be super "Edgy" Eg. "Fuck you citizens I'm better than you, I kill every combine" as...It's just stupid and unrealistic.

6. Remember, you are a citizen!
- You are not brainwashed or augmented.
- You are a citizen with some kevlar and a gun, this does not make you invincible or more powerful that a high ranking MPF/OTA unit.
- You still FearRP, PainRP and all RP related to citizens, you are only wearing a suit. You are not a different creature.

7. Taking (Stealing) things from the CP armoury as a Resistance police character will result in your character being PK'd and a ban.
