This includes partially blocking streets, checkpoints, megabases, etc.

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.

- Your replies may not be disrespectful, contain irrelevant information, or make any attempt to grief the applicant.

GarnetGaming DarkRP - Division Information

The general purpose of the DarkRP Division System is to separate power, responsibility, and workload more evenly within the team, and cater to each specific persons' unique abilities and experience. The division system allows for staff members to contribute where they will be most effective, to deliver a consistent and high quality experience to our players at all times and in all areas. Divisions can be joined at specific ranks by completing the training process with the Supervisors or Directors of each division. This document will cover the minimum rank to join divisions, general expectations, the training process, and the impact that each division has on the overall functionality and performance of our Staff Team.
Each division will have a staff member assigned as the Director, and other members assigned as supervisors. Lead Admins will function as supervisors for every division, and can stand in wherever needed. Division Directors will cycle out based on performance, and will work directly with the Management Team to ensure a consistent quality across all division functions.

Disclaimer: Division Directors can decline training to any person for any reason, if you feel you are being declined to join a division for any reason that is unfair or unjust, please contact a member of Management.

Human Resources Division (HR)
Rank to join: Lead Moderator | Prizes: HR Of The Month

The role of the Human Resources team is to recruit, prepare, and assist new staff members throughout their learning journey; Answering questions, giving feedback, and watching over them as they settle into their new role in our Community.

To join the HR Division, you must hold the rank of Lead Moderator or higher, have abundant knowledge of the server & staff rules, work well with others, and be active in-game and on Discord. The HR Director will approve new members, and assign them with the Trial-HR role, wherein, they can only complete trainings with the assistance of a HR Supervisor, Division Director, or a Lead Admin+. The HR role will be granted after two trainings, or whenever the Division Director deems that you have sufficient experience and are ready for independence. Once you are a qualified member of HR, you can conduct trainings without the need for supervision.
(Remember, two supervised trainings is a minimum, additional supervisions may be required based on your performance.)

Operators Division (Ops)
Rank to join: Trial Administrator
The Operators division is responsible for all Administrative tasks outside of Garry’s Mod, this includes Forum Reports & Appeals, processing suggestions, handling Discord support tickets, and closely monitoring the quality of staff members as they handle reports in-game. While handling form reports and appeals, operators are expected to properly investigate each situation and ensure that no oversight is made when verifying information. When a ban appeal involves a staff member breaking staff rules, Operators may give a recommendation to the Executive Team in regards to staff punishments, but operators will not be responsible for executing these punishments on their own.

To join the operators division, you must hold the rank of Trial Administrator or higher, have a deep understanding of the server & staff rules, and be generally active in-game, on Discord, and on the Forums. The Operators Director will approve new members, and assign them with the Trial Operator role, wherein, they can only handle situations with the assistance of a Operator Supervisor, Division Director, or a Lead Admin+. The Operator role will be granted when the division Director deems that you have sufficient experience and are ready for independence. Once you are a qualified Operator, you can handle Forum Administration & Discord support tickets without supervision.

Gamemasters Division (GM)
Recommended Rank to join: Senior Moderator | Prizes: GM Of The Month

The role of the game Masters division is to engage with the community by means of hosting interactive games & events on the server. It is required that at least two qualified Game Masters be present for each event in order to properly document payout and ensure that events run smoothly. Ideas for new events can be tested by GM Supervisors, and made official by the GM Director or by Management. Game Masters may also arrange 'Game Nights' for the community or staff team, to be conducted within the Official GarnetGaming Discord Servers.

Once you are a qualified Game Master, you may host events with any other qualified Game Master.

The GameMasters Director may make exceptions for some players to join the division early, this decision will be dependent on the trainee's performance in community engagement and their standing in the staff team.

GarnetGaming StarWarsRP Rules

Updated Sept. 14th 2023

Disclaimer: It is your responsibility to read and abide by our server rules.

Failure to do so may result in a punishment. It is also assumed that the player is able to exercise a reasonable amount of common sense.

It is forbidden to loophole these rules. You will still be punished accordingly. Additionally, these rules are up to interpretation by staff and are subject to change.

Community Guidelines:

Below you will find a list of all Community Guidelines, these are rules that do not vary depending on environment and must be followed regardless of setting:

Members of the Community are expected to act reasonable, exude common sense/rationale, and be respectful. Breeding, allowing, or being toxic in any capacity is not allowed, you may be removed from the community in its entirety.
1. Toxic, Unwelcomed, or Irrational behavior may include, but not limited, to the following: DDoS/DoS (or threats to do so), 3rd Party Cheats (using and distributing), Doxxing (or threats to do so), etc
Racial, Homophobic, Xenophobic, or other derogatory slurs are not tolerated, you may be Muted, Kicked, or Banned.
While interacting with Staff remain respectful at all times, they are there to help you/guide you. These are individuals who volunteer their time, they are not paid.
Impersonation of any kind, including but not limited to: Staff, Battalion Command, Community Officials, other members, etc is not tolerated.
Spamming whether by voice, action, chat, or otherwise is forbidden.
"Ask Policy" - Any member who is unsure of any aspect about the server is expected to ask, we have a wonderful basis of Community Members and Staff who will be able to assist you. Not knowing about a policy, rule, or guideline is not a valid defense.
No member is allowed to advertise Streams, other Communities, Discords, etc on any of our platforms without consent from the Community Management or StarWarsRP Administration Team - this includes DMing invites; also known as “poaching”.
Staff Decisions are final, all members have the "right" or ability to appeal any ban. Denied appeals are final adjudications of staff actions and the result must be obeyed, any attempt to circumnavigate/bypass a ban/punishment (such as Ban Evasion, Leaving to Avoid Punishment (LTAP), etc) is not tolerated and may result in a more severe punishment or a prohibition from the ability to appeal in the future.

All members are expected to abide by the community guidelines and other rules, GarnetGaming Staff reserve the right to interpret and/or change the rules at any point in time.

General Rules:

Random Deathmatch: Do not shoot/damage players without proper reasoning. This also applies to vehicles and vehicle damage. You may not consensually RDM an individual.
New Life Rule: You may not use the info from your past lives (Soft or Formal PKs).
- This mainly applies to events and meta-events. It will not be enforced too much in Passive/Day-to-Day RP unless it becomes an issue.
FailRP: FailRP is the term applied to actions which are not realistic in a well roleplayed scenario or actions done outside the normalities and capabilities of a normal individual. Doing so will result in administrative action. (Ex. Running for Shock/CG, Not Following Officers Orders, etc)
- "Rambo-ing": Non-SOB units with disregard with "life-value" and intentionally taking on more enemies/hostiles than a normal clone/Jedi/individual could reasonably handle; or pushing to far ahead into a large enemy front to skip ahead in an event/deprive others of the event.
- ERP (Erotic Roleplay) is strictly prohibited. Any level of this, including minor incidents, will be punished with a FailRP warn.
Vigilantism: If you are not a staff member and witness a player breaking the rules, do not intervene. Breaking the rules to stop a rule breaker (such as shooting somebody committing Mass RDM) is still breaking the rules and not allowed.
- Exception is granted to CG, Navy, or Officers acting rationally to stop within RP, such as stunning/cuffing, etc.
Powergaming/Event Forcing: Falsely calling an event you have no proper authorization to do, in an effort to run an event/roleplay scenario (Ex. Calling Order 66, Falsely Pressing the Base Alarm, Granting Takeoff clearance, Opening/Closing gates/cells without authorization, etc) is not allowed.
Meta-Gaming: Using information from Out-of-Character sources, or information your standard clone/jedi/character would not reasonably have, in effort to give yourself or others an advantage (skipping event stages to complete it faster, using OOC chat/information to forward RP).
Misuse the Report System: Do not use the /report system unless you have a legitimate issue with another player.
Misuse of chat: All /Comms, /Advert, and Radio chat is IN CHARACTER forms of communication. Abusing, or misusing these chat’s may result in IC or OOC punishment.

In-Character Guidelines:

“Never Shoot Another Brother”: Never raise a weapon at a fellow Clone, Clone Trooper, Jedi, or Naval Personnel. If someone is violating a claim or breaking rules, report them to CG/Officers/Navy and they will direct the report to an OOC (Out-of-Character) situation if needed.
“Never Engage Whilst a Jedi is In-Combat”: Whilst a Jedi is in Close Quarters Battle, you should avoid engaging in targets, near and around them; for their safety.
“Only use equipment that you are issued, when required”: You may not use another Battalion’s equipment ever, or your own without cause.
- Example 1: “Grapple Hooks” or “Jetpacks” being used on Base Status 1 with no signs of hostiles.
- Example 2: Special items such as Flamethrowers, Jet Packs, Vehicles, and any explosive used outside reasonable RP situations and simulations.

Battalion Rules:

Permission to Speak: PTS is a form of communication control used by your officers. When PTS is active, you may not speak without being granted permission to. You may be punished In-Character, or for repeated offenses, muted, following the above guidelines regarding spamming.
Self Promotion: Do not appoint yourself to a rank you have not earned. All promotions are logged. Doing so will result in a ban and/or removal of whitelists.
Documents: The altering of the documents of your respective faction without permission/valid reasoning is strictly forbidden, and may be considered sabotage. Doing so will result in a 1-week ban and permanent blacklist from said faction
Simulations should be done in the simulation rooms. Proper sims are done by gathering players who wish to participate, separating into teams, and doing /advert Sim start in chat once each team is ready. Make sure to claim the Simulation room before initiating sims to avoid confusion should a battalion need it for tryouts.
As Non-VIP you may only be 1 Battalion a single time. If you are VIP you may have 1 battalion life and 1 VIP life (Jedi). A Staff/GM member is counted as a VIP and will follow the VIP rules.

Officer/Battalion Command Rules:

Promotions: All promotions should have a valid reasoning to back the decision up. Each cooldown must have a reasonable timeframe defined/posted. Officer+ promotions should generally have a minimum of at least 1 week.
Demotions: In order for a demotion to take place, you must have valid reasoning to demote, whether they be from in-character, or out-of-character. 3rd Party applications such as Snapchat images.
Denial of Tryout: Officers of a given faction that are hosting tryouts hold every right to deny you from joining their faction - their reasoning may be based on anything from your in-game statistics (kill-death) as well as your attitude in 3rd party OOC networks.
Second and Third In-Command appointments are up to the current Battalion CO, subject to final Admin Team/Republic Navy approval, and are only open to Officers active within that faction, off of cooldown(s).

Medic Rules:

You may not use the defibrillator or revive any event character under any pretense, unless the Gamemaster running the event gives permission prior.

Coruscant Guard Rules:

You may not use the stun or cuff any event character under any pretense, unless the Gamemaster running the event gives permission prior.
Abusing Cuffs/Jail System outside of proper/valid arrests is not tolerated and may result in removal from CG.
- Example: Arresting people for fun or "as a joke".
You must follow the predetermined jail times and levels of tolerance set in the Republic Law and Punishment Times, overly harsh, exaggerated jail times, charge stacking, etc is not tolerated.

Miscellaneous Rules:

Sub-factions & Branches: You may not use /jobs in order to create your own faction, setting yourself apart from other people. The only factions you may join and be a part of are to be found on the F4 menu. In addition, you may not set your job to something that is FailRP. You may only change your job from what it originally is to a proper RP (roleplay) squad name for tryouts/events/missions
Advert chat is an in-character chat used for official uses only (Officers using Advert to call tryouts or simulations) and should only be used by officers unless given permission. You may be punished both in-character (Communications Misuse) and/or Out-Of Character (False Advert/FailRP) for misuse of these chats
Links in chat: Posting links that are not associated with the Garnet Gaming Forums and/or faction google documents in chat is strictly prohibited. Doing so will result in a warning for a non-GG link. [It is advised to post links in Private Messages, and avoid them in OOC chat]

Rules are subject to change, all punishments are issued in the best interest of the community and may not be explicitly listed above.
