Axon RP Rules

Comments · 541 Views

Welcome to AXON RP! We know our rule & guidebook is a lot to read, but it is essential to participating in our server and familiarizing yourself with it is key in making sure you don't get banned.

Introduction

We here at AXON RP are very female and lgbtq+ friendly. What this means is we offer protections that are unique to us and you won't find in most cities, we have a lower tolerance and higher punishment system for any type of sexism and transphobia. We can not prevent things from happening, but we can take appropriate action when it does happen and have your back in harmful situations. We do try to operate on an educate first policy, because many people are used to FiveM toxicity and we do feel people can learn and grow, but that depends on the severity of the offense and have no problem flighting people who do not belong in Axon RP.

We also have two roles you can claim here at Axon that you might want to know about. The first is our GODDESS ROLE which is given to cisgender females and transgender females and includes access to an exclusive chat and voice channel, as well as free prio. The second role we have available is our VALID ROLE for loyal core members of our community who have been part of the server for over a month with more than 7 days worth of play time and includes access to exclusive chats, voice channels, as well as polls and suggestions channels.

We appreciate you taking the time to learn our rules and hope you enjoy the server!

Clothing

You must be wearing clothing in public. Nudity is not allowed outside of clothing stores, private residences and vanilla unicorn. Wearing of full face masks and face paint are not allowed casually or regularly. Occasional use requires a valid rp reason related to illegal activity or something else that fits the use.

WHITELISTED CLOTHING is clothing that people pay to put in the city or are associated with whitelisted jobs. You are not allowed to wear that clothing unless you paid for the item, were given permission by the person, are in the gang or are part of the whitelisted job. Whitelisted clothing is typically at the back of the pack and includes the following;

  • LSPD Clothing
  • EMS Clothing
  • Bunny Ears
  • Any items related to Playboy Bunnies
  • Gang Clothing
  • Business Clothing
  • Katanas
  • Staff Clothing
  • The Large Crowns
  • There are also verious items with other people's names that are whitelisted. If you are unsure feel free to call an Administrator or open a ticket and ask.

RP Essentials

FAIL RP

Purposely destroying rp is not allowed. Examples of this are the following;

  • Using phone while dead or cuffed
  • Using radio while dead or cuffed
  • Using /me to talk while dead
  • Using emotes while dead
  • Using emoted to disguise ADS
  • Holding aim before intiation
  • Not using /reloadchar if someone drags your dead body out of a car with /me actions
  • Not buckling your seatbelt in a cop car if a police officer buckles your seatbelt through rp
  • Respawning in an active scene involving PD they will tell you when you're good to see the light

NITRP

No intention to rp. We are a semi serious server with a big focus on rp interaction. If you plan to play this server you must rp. Nitrp also includes refusing to interact with those attempting to rp around you and with you.

COMBAT LOGGING

Logging off after or during conflicts to avoid consequences is not allowed. This includes logging off to prevent getting robbed or searched or jailed by police. You will have your inventory cleared if you do so as well as receive a ban.

POWERGAMING

Running into or camping a greenzone to avoid RP situations is not allowed. The exploitation of certain scripts or things in game to give you the upperhand or simply just playing to win is also not allowed

IRL

Do not bring IRL into game. Saying "in game" will not protect you if you say something specifically and clearly about irl. However, referencing "your mom" is not automatically considered irl and we operate that any general mention of family references in game family. The reference to irl must be specific and clear. If you bring any irl information into game yourself it becomes irl and you can not turn around and try to push punishment for irl if you yourself brought that information into game.

EXPLOITING

Exploiting will lead you to different levels of bans within the city. This includes animation exploiting, exploiting out of th and fast farming, carrying or uncarrying while dead, using your phone or radio while dead, any exploits with drugs or our character system that allow you to make money quicker. No abusing emotes, for example playing dead on the ground during a shootout and popping up to kill someone.

NLR

We have a new life rule that lasts ten minutes and means you must forget everything, you cannot return to the place you died for ten minutes (this includes residences and places you work at) and you can not get revenge or hold a grudge from a past life situation unless the death is publicly posted on social media or you are reminded by someone who was PRESENT and lived. This only applies to if you respawn at the hospital and does not apply to if you are picked back up by EMS.

GREENZONES

You are not allowed to kill, sell drugs, initiate, kidnap someone in a greenzone or carry someone out of a greenzone. Greenzones include the following locations

  • Hospital
  • All clothing stores
  • All gun stores
  • Main car dealership
  • All shell residences (meaning residences that you have to teleport into)
  • City Services - RP is not allowed at City Services. You should only be going back there to change job then leave.
  • Event spaces for the duration of city wide staff hosted events, unless otherwise specified.
  • Admin zones set for the purpose of sits | Occasionally peacetime is enabled and during that time no illegal activities are allowed. This includes robberies, selling drugs and any other gang activities.

RDM

RDM (random deathmatch) is killing anyone without initiation and is not allowed. See initiation section for more details to avoid RDM. If someone is shooting at you without initiation the best thing to do is to let yourself die and call admin. Revenge RDM is just as bad as regular RDM and will be punished equally or invalidate the sit.

VDM

VDM (vehicle deathmatch) intentionally and repeatedly running people over with a vehicle or repeatedly ramming into someone else's vehicle without initiation is not allowed. Also, shooting out of bulletproof cars is not allowed and this includes if your car has a bulletproof back window.

Streamer Friendly

We are streamer friendly, but we have some recommendations and rules in place for that considering the adult elements in Axon RP. We recommend that streamers do not stream character creation, inside clothing stores or inside the vanilla unicorn. Additionally if you type /streamermode in the chat it will turn off the music around you to protect against copyright. There is also a streamer mode in the settings of the phone to blur all images. NSFW images are allowed on twitter on Axon, but not on Instagram.

  • No TOS words No baiting TOS words
    • ex; ie f slur, hard r, retard, simp, virgin, incel, rape, any type of racist or homophobic language
  • No stream sniping
  • No intentially targeting streamers
  • No public nuditiy or sexual emotes outside of private residences or Vanilla Unicorn

Harassment

Harassment is an offensive, repetitive, belittling, threatening, or otherwise unwelcome behavior directed at someone based on protected characteristics including race, religion, sex, gender identiy, sexuality, disabilities or speech impediment.

  • Do not bring up anything IRL (This includes talking about irl family, personal issues, speech impediments, race, religion, etc.)
  • No calling anyone whore/treesh/slut/etc in a derogatory manner
  • No non-consensual sexual rp, including doing pushups on people you have hostage
  • No sexual harassment
  • Do not bait any form of harassment or hate speech
  • Do not continually follow or stalk someone around the city
  • No telling a female ped to strip at gunpoint or any weapon
  • No commenting on a female ped's voice, especially with the context of how deep it is or any allusions or questions to that person’s gender identity being anything other than female.
  • If someone feels you are harassing them and asks you to stop but you continue you will get coms or a flight out the city depending on the severity

Note It is important to understand the difference between the allowed toxicity of gang rp/simply talking shit and actual harassment. If you are talking shit but then call harassment when the person says something back that is NOT harassment unless there is a line crossed with the above protected characteristics. We aren’t going to give out punishments just because you can’t handle the heat, but we will act appropriately when we see fit.

 Calling Admin

When you need to report something in game make sure you have your clip and it's posted then do /report in game to call or chat with an admin. Please only report once and be patient waiting for the admin to come. Treat the admin that takes your request with respect and provide anything that is asked of you.

Valid Clips Must;

  • Be two minutes or longer
  • Include audio from both sides
  • Show enough evidence from the POV for action to be taken

If a death is involved those two minutes need to happen prior to death. It can not be a minute before death and a minute of you just lying there dead. We recommend having clips longer than two minutes to make sure you have everything you need clipped.

During a Sit

If there is a large group of people make sure you don't talk over each other, one person should speak at a time. If a sit is chaotic and people are yelling and talking over the admin, the admin who takes the sit has a right to /kill anyone at the sit to take control. Killing or initiating during a sit is against the rules and will be punished heavily. It is not your decision to decide what happens in a sit, Staff are in charge of the punishments. Debating and going back and forth with staff members can and will be shut down.

Note

  • An admin sit is out of RP; you are not allowed to interfere with an admin sit. You will be kicked or given coms if you do not leave an admin zone when told.
  • Do not call admin for a skin menu unless you just made your character or if there's a problem. There are clothing stores and hair salons.
  • You must comply IMMEDIATELY if asked for a PC check by Staff. Failure to do so in a timely manner may result in a blacklist from the city.

Initiation

You must RP with the person or gang or group you intend to initiate on for ONE MINUTE. This minute must have escalating tension and sufficient rp In order to initiate you must VERBALLY THREATEN LIFE. There are many ways to do this and we are going to break each category down fully:

Direct Threats

These threats make it clear that the intention is to shoot and a shootout is guaranteed to happen. After the person initiates with a direct verbal threat they have to wait five seconds to shoot UNLESS the person or gang they threatened acts by moving to aim, rolls with their gun out, tells their gang over comms to shoot or makes any other violent attempt in retaliation.

  • "I'm going to put you in a coffin"
  • "I'm going to boom you"
  • "It's time for you to die"
  • "I'm going to put a bullet between your eyes"
  • and many more

Conditional Demands

These threats are demands that another person do SOMETHING. You must give that person sufficient time to do the thing you are demanding to do, but if they don't start to do the thing demanded of them within five seconds you are allowed to shoot. If the person complies killing them means rdm.

  • "Put your hands up or you're dead"
  • "Get out of the car or you're dead"
  • "Put away your gun or you're dead"
  • "Take off the chain or you're dead"
  • and many more

Territory Warnings

These types of warnings can only be used in territories that are owned by you and your gang, areas where you have control and ownership over the area giving you an advantage in that spot. They are the only threats that do NOT allow the other person to shoot back immediately, because if compliance happens there's no threat to anyone. It's essentially saying, if you take this action you are initiating on me and/or on my gang and we have the right to shoot if you take this action within two minutes of stating this warning. These types of warnings can only be used on having someone NOT do something.

  • "If you sell one more time it's up for you"
  • "If you pull out a gun you're dead"
  • "If you call out on that radio I'm shooting"
  • and many more

Others ways to initiate

  • Lockpicking of your house
  • Lockpicking of your car
  • Two punches
  • Tazing
  • Shooting through car windows while person is inside
  • Stealing of vehicle
    • Note You are not allowed to shoot someone if they get in your car, you need to inform them it's your car and give them a chance to get out. You can only shoot someone during the act of stealing your car. If you catch them out later in the city you must initiate properly.

Everything listed below is not initiation;

  • Aiming is NOT initiation and is fail rp if you do so before initiation
  • "your gang" K is NOT initiation, it is part of escalating tension
  • Cuffing is NOT initiation
  • Shooting tires is NOT initiation, it is part of escalating tension

Twitter

You can initiate on twitter, but need a total of 10 tweets fighting (5 from each side) and then once you initiate through twitter you need to interact with that person on location for 30 seconds. After you have been together physically for thirty seconds shooting can immediately begin.

Fear Compliance

You must comply and fear for your life if you are alone against 3 or more people. You can counterattack any group if you have 2 of more people.

"I'm with him"

Announcing is required on AXON RP if you want to initiate with a friend or defend a friend.

  • You must announce that you are with someone before initiation is over and shooting begins.
  • In order to not have to announce you must be in the same gang. Alliances have to announce that they are together since alliances can shift.
  • You can not announce after a friend gets killed as a way of getting revenge, you must initiate yourself.
  • If you are wearing the same colors as a gang, but aren't part of it and running with them you assume the risk to your life by being around that gang and can not report for RDM.

Kidnapping

A person's hands must be up in order to take them hostage for a kidnapping. A person does not have to put their hands up without a threat of life and threat of life can only happen after a minute or rp and proper initiation. You can attempt to kidnap someone and trick them into putting their hands up, but they are not required to do so without initiation regardless of how many people there are.

You can not kidnap a police officer unless there are five cops online

EMS

Any crimes against EMS will be punished as they are walking greenzones.

  • This includes killing, robbing, kidnapping, stealing their vehicles.

Alternatively EMS should not approach active shooting scenes or any scenes deemed dangerous when gangs are involved. EMS needs to remain a safe distance away. Approaching a body when people have guns out is not allowed.

Stealing bodies out of hospital to prevent them from getting revived by EMS is against the rules. Once they hit the greenzone radius that person is safe.

LSPD

This guide is to help better the understanding of the inner workings of LSPD as it affects the city. Please direct any questions about this guide to any LSPD Officer.

Basics

  • If you do not have a lawyer's ID and are claiming to be a lawyer you will be arrested for impersonation. If you are a lawyer and aren’t dressed professionally you will not be allowed in the building. If your lawyer is carrying anything illegal they will be arrested.
  • No respawning in an active scene involving pd they will tell you when you're good to see the light.
  • Officers are required to fear for their lives when outnumbered more than 3 per 1 cop

Robbing LSPD

Under no circumstance you can rob LSPD

  • THIS MEANS YOU CANNOT ROB LSPD

 

Shooting LSPD

There are three situations in which you are allowed to shoot at a police officer. They are:

  • If you initiate on a police officer
  • If you or your gang member is tased by a police officer
  • If you or your gang is shot at by a police officer.

Deadly Force

Police can use deadly force rather than a taser under the following circumstances;

  • If they announce they are breaching during a robbery
  • They pull up to an existing shootout
  • During gang wars
  • A gun is aimed at a police officer
  • If guns are pulled out during a standard interaction with pd
  • If you are attempting to harm another person regardless of gang affiliation
  • If there is a SWAT sniper and PD higher ups approve taking a shot in a hostage situation

Initiation

In order to initiate on pd you must follow the same rules as regular initiation, meaning there must be a minute of roleplay prior to initiation and a verbal threat must be made. Initiation between pd and gangs/civilians counts for everyone involved in the scene where initiation happens.

  • Example: What this means is if the Bloods initiated on police officers in Legion Square, a Blood can not shoot at a cop up on vinewood and vice versa, but those two can join the scene to interact with the initiation within the two minutes time.

The following actions are part of LSPD's approved tactics and are excluded from initiation rules: Cuffing, Police aiming a gun, P.I.T manuevers, Grappling

Reasonable Suspicion

If an officer has reasonable suspicion in a situation, they may frisk or detain a suspect briefly with consent under the following circumstances after receiving any type of crime alert in an area:

  • Wearing a mask
  • Wearing gloves when it’s not snowing (does not include fingerless)
  • Wearing gang clothing in all alerts other than shots fired
  • Speeding away from the area
  • Loitering in known high crime areas

Probable Cause

Probable cause means that a reasonable person would believe that a crime was in the process of being committed, had been committed, or was going to be committed. Probable cause is enough for a search or arrest.

  • Dead peds around the area
  • A drug handoff
  • Brandishing Weapons
  • Wearing gang clothing in a shots fired call

What police can confiscate

Upon search police can seize the following items if found on your inventory and do not have to give them back to you upon your release.

  • Drugs
  • Black market weapons
  • Combat pistols (if used illegally or without a weapons license)
  • Robbery supplies and rewards
  • Marked Bills
  • Radios
  • Drivers License if your end up in a police chase or driving recklessly
  • Any illegal items

Impounding Cars

Police can impound your car if it's used in a crime scene, illegally parked, in possession of a driver with no license. Please check Postal 832, or 294 before contacting the Police or coming to the police station. If LSPD is unavailable then you'll have to WAIT to get your car back.

Licenses

These are the items that can be obtained from the front desk of the police department, and at city hall and should be carried by civilians at all times. There are repurcussions for not having these items on your person. These items include:

  • Driver's license
  • Weapons License

Robberies

Only one robbery may take place at a time. You must wait at least 30 minutes before robbing the same person or performing another heist. The amount of people robbing a location may not outnumber the number of cops on duty (Ex. If there are 4 cops online you may only have 4 people participate in the robbery this includes an outside shooter).

Individual

  • Only the person who killed the other person can rob the dead body and if someone's hands are up only one person can steal from them. The max you are allowed to take is 100k clean, all dirty money, any weapons, and any ILLEGAL items. Breaking stealing rules will result in a full inventory wipe.

Gang Rules

Roster

  • Gangs must have a permanent roster on the discord. No one should put on the clothes or be added to the gang menu without being added to the discord roster. This roster should only be changed occasionally based on need, it should not be changing daily. Any situations where someone is breaking this rule will result in a gang strike.
  • Gangs can have up to 20 members, but 5 of those spaces must be dedicated female spots.

Gang Activity

  • Gangs must be wearing gang clothing to take part in gang activity. This includes selling drugs, shooting with your gang, kidnapping, robbing using the gang menu and anything else that affects loyalty.
  • You can only wear a gang chain if you have the chain item in your inventory.
  • Gangs are not allowed to shoot a body after it has been killed. This is a territory exploit that will result in your territory wipe.
  • If you log in an active scene to prevent yourself from getting robbed you will get your inventory wiped along with a one day ban for combat log. In the case of crash you must return to the scene immediately or open a ticket to resolve it if you can't get back in.

Allicances

  • Gangs may maintain one alliance for a maximum of 30 days. In order to break the alliance one gang must backdoor their current alliance with the new gang they want to align with.
  • Gangs Wars are announced 24 hours in advance and gangs can only take a single territory in the gang war. Speedboosting and glitch rolling is allowed inside these gang war zones and you can only shoot when INSIDE the zone. A maximum of five members per gang is allowed in any one zone.

Strikes

Gang strikes are a team higher up decision based on large scale and repeated offenses of known rules. Community members are not part of this decision process and can not push for gang strikes and therefore should not ask about gang strikes. Gang strikes will be discussed privately with the leaders in the gang with a ticket and they will not be publicly disclosed.

Ownership

  • Selling a whitelisted gang will result in a permanent ban
  • Ownership of an active gang is only allowed if the gang is active and the new owner must be a current active member of the game
  • Transferring ownership of a whitelisted gang must be clarified in a ticket
