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 Manager+ may deal with staff vs staff reports.

• Admin+ May only noclip during an active report (Unless on duty)
