Global Rules - Reeb - 08-28-2024

This list of rules applies to all of the Network's servers. Please read this list to ensure that you are following all of these rules while playing on our servers.
  • NO usage of racial or bigotry slurs. Softer variants of a slur are given a verbal warning. If continued, punishment will be given out. Usage of racist slurs such as the hard ER will result in an immediate permanent ban without warning.
  • Do NOT impersonate staff or players. This includes having a [STAFF] tag, [ADMIN] tag, etc.
  • Do NOT disrespect players or staff. Doing this can result in a ban without warning.
  • Do NOT chat spam or mic spam. EXAMPLES: Having music playing through your mic, singing into your mic, being obnoxious in chat or voice, shouting at your mic, having your volume up too high, and sending repetitive messages with the intent to be annoying.
  • Do NOT deny players access to other parts of the map. EXAMPLES: Door Blocking (placing objects in front of a door), Door Locking (spamming "e" to prevent a door from opening), or Prop Blocking (placing objects in a corridor with malicious intent).
  • Do NOT ghost. This includes giving a living player information that they wouldn't already know. This includes using third-party chat software or an in-game method to share information.
  • Do NOT self-advertise in a malicious way. This includes attempting to drive players away from our community by advertising another server or network. Does NOT include steam names (unless it is an IP address or an explicit invitation to join that server/network). YouTube and Twitch are FINE as long as you aren't spamming via voice/text OR if it's not directly advertising another gaming network/discord. If you wish to advertise your YouTube or Twitch we have a discord in which you can do so.
  • Users MUST join with with a name that can be interpreted in English. The name must be able to be referenced in both text and voice chat:
    • ACCEPTABLE:
      • Ⓡⓔⓔⓑ
      • H3LL0
      • qǝǝɹ
    • NOT ACCEPTABLE:
      • 色调
      • مسحة
  • Do NOT exploit the map to get to areas that would be otherwise unreachable. (Applies to all servers except TPH!)
  • Do NOT exploit or abuse game mechanics and items. If you have found a possible exploit, report it immediately to a staff member or our support discord.
  • Do NOT intentionally disrupt or hinder gameplay.
  • Do NOT use third-party programs to cheat, hack, or abuse the mechanics of the game.
  • This is an English-speaking network. You MUST speak and use English exclusively on our platforms. If you are speaking another language you will be asked to speak English.
  • Do NOT abuse any commands that come with a rank you have earned/purchased.
  • Do NOT harass players or staff.
  • Sprays CANNOT contain pornography of any kind, racial slurs, or otherwise distasteful content.
  • Do NOT intentionally leave the server to avoid punishment.
  • Do NOT post any links in the chat. The reasoning behind this is that people can send out malicious links such as viruses/malware, porn, etc.
  • All live streams must have a 5-minute delay to prevent ghosting IF you are streaming on our TTT or PropHunt servers. You do not need a delay on our current other ones, however.
Rules are subject to change at any given time without warning. It is up to the server staff team to implement these rules and update their handbooks. Penalties will be handled on a server-to-server basis.
