DarkRP Staff Rules Failure to follow any of these rules may result in your immediate removal from the DarkRP Staff Team. Staff members are expected to be professional, serious, informative, and understanding when dealing with reports and while representing the server within all community platforms. Staff members may not disrespect, harass, or grief any member of the Garnet Gaming Community for any reason. You may only use administrative commands while on duty, handling a report, or while conducting a sit. (This includes teleporting, physgunning players, and checking logs.) You may not request a promotion, nor request your report count throughout the month. You may not ban, warn, or jail players without first gathering sufficient proof (screenshots, recordings) to justify the punishment(s). Failure to respond to, or justify a punishment that is appealed/reported on the forums may lead to punishment. You must have a sit before punishing a player; However, some particularly disruptive situations may not require a /report to be placed on the individual, such situations include racism/homophobia (in local chat, OOC, or on textscreens,) advertising, DDoS/Doxing Threats, OOC offenses, blatant Mass RDM/RDA, Mass Propblock, and Propblocking Spawn. (If you handle a situation without a report, it is up to you to gather all of the evidence and ensure that the report is handled accordingly.) You may not handle reports directly involving yourself or a member of your party unless there are no other active staff online. You should attempt to call for additional staff via the #requests channel in the DarkRP Staff Discord server, or via the admin @ chat.) When applying for staff, in the field: "Did you read the staff rules:" the response should be your in-game name, IE: "Did you read the staff rules: Garnet". You may not be staff on any other gaming community while staffing on Garnet Gaming. Do not teleport higher ups without their permission, as it may result in a disciplinary action. Do not spam teleport or any other commands on other staff or players. You must always use SteamIDs when utilizing any staff commands. (Targeting usernames has a chance to pull other people besides your target.) You may not AFK or roleplay while using the Staff On Duty job. Don't aimlessly sit/pass through player bases as a Staff On Duty. (Staff On Duty should only be used while actively handling reports.) Staff may not use information collected during a report to aid them in roleplay scenarios. Example: Surveying the layout of a base during a failbase report, then using that information during a raid. All staff members are required to have a working microphone and be a member of the DarkRP Staff Discord, Garnet DarkRP Discord, and Garnet Global Discord. Only Admin+ may spectate reports. Lower ranks may teleport to a sit to watch if they are requested or given permission by the person handling the report. Only Lead Admins & Managers may deal with player vs staff reports. Only Manager+ may deal with staff vs staff reports. Admin+ May only noclip during an active report (Unless on duty) Lead Admin May noclip off duty but must be for a staffing reason outside of active reports. Example: Flying around looking for clear failbases, doing a quick look for clear rule breakers etc. Manager+ May noclip at any time.

ALL STAFF V STAFF REPORTS WILL BE HANDLED PRIVATELY, DO NOT POST A REPORT UNDER THIS CATEGORY. Information Once you fill out the report, send it to the DarkRP Manager(s) in a private message on the forums. If you post the report as a thread instead of PMing it to one of the staff members listed above, your anonymity will not be kept intact. Remember, these reports do not need to be formal. You do not need proof, however, without proof, you cannot guarantee the reportee will be punished. The reportee will be questioned and watched, however only punished if caught/reported with proof. If reporting without proof, simply put "N/A" in the designated area for proof. These report(s) will remain 100% anonymous, and the higher-up management will be the only people who deal with the report(s). We may explain the situation to others for help regarding punishments (to reduce bias), however, your name will remain completely anonymous.
