Standardization of Ingame Rules
Ingame Rules
1. Do not disrupt other players. Examples: Ramming cars,
impersonating a player or group / squad, discriminatorily
attacking a player, repeated verbal provocation and harassing
players in their group base. It's against the rules to enter
bases when the gate is closed. This rule applies in LV.
Maximum punishment: Admin jail or global mute using default
duration for most acts. 5 year ban for extreme cases.
2. Listen to server staff, these are people with [CIP] in their
name. You must comply with all reasonable requests made by a
staff member. Do not annoy staff. Supporters can mute you if you
ignore them in Support chat. Do not misuse '/report'.
Maximum punishment: Admin jail or global mute not exceeding 48
hours or the default duration.
3. You can discuss real world things like religion and politics
but remain calm and respectful while doing so.
Maximum punishment: Global mute not exceeding 72 hours or the
default duration.
4. Do not cheat, exploit bugs or scam players. If you don't
break rule 8 you wouldn't get scammed.
Maximum punishment: 5 year ban for any cheater. Up to 5 year ban
for exploiting. 5 year limitation for scamming, ban if serious.
5. You mustn't say more than 1 message in main or team chat
which is not in English. Do not say 'Fail' afterwards.
Maximum punishment: Mute not exceeding 24 hours or the default
duration.
6. Do not spam, complain about lag, or post 'quick stats'. Press
'J' if you need to contact an admin. All admins start with
[CIP]. Do not misuse the chats that are there for a purpose and
not for chatting randomly in. Do not talk about somebody getting
punished.
Maximum punishment: Mute not exceeding 72 hours or the default
duration. 3 day ban for major spam.

limitation prevents receiving / transferring items from / to
other players.
Forum Rules
1. Do not be dishonest.
2. Do not post or link to illegal, copyright infringing,
pornographic, disgusting, inappropriate content or plagiarise
player made goods.
3. Do not insult, be nasty, or trollish to people.
4. Do not make useless or off topic posts.
5. Post new topics in the right board, look through the board
list before posting.
6. Do not post things that have already been posted.
7. The contents of your forum avatar, signature and profile must
be appropriate.
8. Names must be appropriate and an actual name. For example
using a full stop as a name will be not be tolerated. Names must
only contain English alphabetical, numerical or standard
keyboard characters.
9. Questions posted in the "General Support / Questions" MUST BE
ABOUT CIP. If you want to make a server, buy a website or
anything that has nothing to do with CIP, DO NOT ASK FOR HELP IN
THIS BOARD. Go to "MTA Support" board which is located in
"General Support / Questions" board as its child board and ask
your MTA related questions there.
10. Registering a forum account via a proxy or using a temporary
email account will be assumed as attempted ban evasion or
registering with malicious intent and will result in a permanent
ban. When we are processing your forum registration attempt and
another forum account has been used recently from the same IP
address, probably because you're trying to create multiple
identities for yourself and or ban evade, you will probably end
up banned for multi accounting.
11. Do not PM staff members about bans, irrelevancies or
anything else they don't want in their inbox. Do not mention
staff members without a valid reason.
12. You can't use animated images in signature or avatar.
13. You can discuss real world things like religion and politics
but remain calm and respectful while doing so.
14. When posting in the forum shout box do not post anything
against the above rules that also includes racism, non-English
and any other inappropriate content. Do not complain about being
disconnected or being unable to connect to the server. Posting
in the shout box while muted will get you banned from the forum
until your mute expires.
15. Asking somebody to vote in a certain way in a topic or post
undermines democracy and is forbidden.
16. Giving stupid answers in support board like "format your PC"
is stupid and will not be tolerated.

you will be able to post again.
