BrokenDarkRP Server Rules
Welcome to the new and easy-to-understand rules of BrokenDarkRP. Here we have read and reviewed the rules of many servers to provide the best and fairest rules to follow. We are not going to go crazy if you don't follow all of the rules but do your best to follow the 10 main rules.
RULE 10
1)Don't do anything to harm the server
.2)Respect everyone. No shit-talking, trolling, nothing. (Really respect the staff)
3)Don't annoy anyone
4)Don't use a bug or exploit to your advantage, report it to the forums to be fixed. If you're caught, you will be punished.
5)Don't attempt to avoid the AFK automatic kicker. When your caught you will be kicked or banned.
6)Don't attempt to prop climb, surf, kill, block, bridge, or spam.
7)You may body-block, but only as long as it does not break Rule 2 or 3.
8)No BHopping. It's unrealistic.
9)Impersonating staff will result in a Month Ban.

2.You must wait 10 minutes in between raiding (you also cannot RAID the same base/group twice in a row)

6.CP members are NOT allowed to own/base doors/homes. (Your home is the PD)
7.No Blockades in the PD.
New Life Rule
If this is your first RP server in the history of online gaming. Then let's update you with something called the New Life Rule or NLR.The NLR states that once you die, you forget everything that happened to you. This means that, when you die, you don't immediately go back to you house to kill those bastards that just murdered you.
Civil Protection has some exclusions, though NLR still applies to them when it comes to every situation except a PD RAID. If a CP member dies during a RAID they are allowed to go back to the PD without guns drawn, see raiders, then pull out a weapon and defend.Building RulesMost of these rules are precise.
1.Don't abuse fading door (using your physical keyboard to open your fading doors during a RP situation, like RAID)
2.Only spawn working keypads.
3.Keypads must be placed near the door they go to.
4.At only one entrance of your base may have 2 fading doors. One of the entrances may only have one fading door. For example, the front door of your house could have 2 fading doors and the closet in your house could only have one fading door (or vice-versa)
5.Keypads must have a minimum delay of 3 seconds.
6.A player must be able to enter and exit a building w/o having to destroy any props.
7.No one sided exploits.
8.Don't build in places that you don't own.
9.Don't build out on the streets or anywhere public. Hobos and Dj's are an exception to this rule they are allowed to build on the sidewalks and park areas.
10.Don't block of parts of the map or NPC's around the map.
11.When building, put up a sign that says "BUILDING" to let others know not to mess with you. Once you've finished building, remove/change the sign. When building, you should not have any printers or entities in the building. If you do, they will be removed and no refunds.
12.In regards to to Rule 11, don't mess with people that have a "BUILDING" sign.
13.No megabasing (blocking off huge portions of the map, making ridiculous eye sores, have huge overlapping props into the street/sidewalk, building props in front of fences/past property lines, etc. USE COMMON SENSE)
14.No GIF's, racial discrimination, no references to horrendous events, no bloody violence, no nudity or porn on signs. Keep it in role-play, no random out of RP signs.
15.Don't build on roofs not accessible without props. No storing entities on theses roofs what so ever!!
Combat Engagement
Because we all love to RDM, we've got an outline of the principles that would permit you to fire your weapon.
You can fire at someone if:
1.You have made a warning shot or call before hand.
2.Someone takes something of yours.
3.If someone is attempting to RAID or rob you.
4.You feel threatened and have given a warning to said player/s. (example=Players following you around and warnings were given, players pointing guns and/or having guns around your base after warnings were given to holster said weapons, someone armed point a gun at you, when warnings were given to holster weapons and/or to back off.
5.A person is stopped, facing you, with a pickpocket (or any item with the same model) out.
You cannot fire at someone if:
1.They are government personnel (if that is the sole reason)
2.They are doing no harm.
3.You have not given a warning shot or call. (unless they are RAIDING or robbing you)
