You are responsible for staying current on the DayZ Reloaded Server & Community Rules. Failure to adhere to this responsibility can and will result in removal (ban) from the Community. 

You are responsible for staying current on the DayZ Reloaded Server & Community Rules. Failure to adhere to this responsibility can result in a removal (ban) from the Community for not following them or not being aware of changes/updates. Providing a positive experience for our players is paramount and these rules help reinforce that effort.  

RULE 1: ALWAYS BE KIND AND RESPECTFUL. Do not engage in racism, hate speech, disrespect, or political/religious chat. These things have a ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY here.  Be a good person.

RULE 1.1: ENGLISH ONLY IN GLOBAL CHAT/DISCORD. Private conversations: feel free to use any language you wish. Global chat must be in English.

RULE 1.5: DO NOT PM OR @ ANY STAFF. No matter what it is, there is no circumstance--ever--where you should PM a staff member, or @ staff in any discord channels. None. All issues are handled through our ticket system. Emergency or not, MAKE A TICKET. Failure to do so can result in a discord timeout, up to and including a ban. Do not PM or @ staff ever. 

RULE 2: ABSOLUTELY NO PVP or KOS (Kill on Sight) is allowed at anytime, anywhere. DayZ Reloaded is a 100% PVE community.

RULE 3: NO ADVERTISING OTHER SERVERS OR INVITING of players to your DayZ server or Discord. You will immediately be removed from the community on the first offense. 

RULE 4: YOU ARE REQUIRED TO JOIN DISCORD TO PLAY HERE. Players not in the discord that are found on the server have 3 hours to join the discord. Any players not in the discord will be removed from the server. This helps us track players more easily and also allows players to follow important updates and announcements, most importantly—read the rules!

RULE 5: INGAME ISSUES. If you have an issue, please open a ticket in  ⁠【🎯tickets🎯】  by clicking the OPEN TICKET button. Do not yell/type ADMIN in game. A member of the Admin team will respond as soon as possible. DO NOT @ or PRIVATE MESSAGE ADMIN. Follow the instructions on the information to include in your ticket or it will be closed.

RULE 6: NO STEALING LOOT from other players, vehicles, or bases. DO NOT take anything from a dead player’s body, open/unlocked vehicles, or bases. If it’s not yours…leave it alone or you will be banned.

RULE 7: NO BASE RAIDING. Base raiding is not allowed. This includes any bases you find open or unlocked. If it’s not yours, don't touch it or you will be banned. 

RULE 8: DO NOT TAKE UNLOCKED VEHICLES. No vehicles are spawned. All are purchased. Do not take any vehicle that you find unlocked. If it’s not yours, leave it and any inventory contained within it alone.

RULE 9: Vehicles parked at the traders or anywhere on the map for more than 2 restarts WILL be removed, [2 Server restarts = 6 hours]. Admin that find vehicles left on the map may also remove them at any time no matter how long they've been out, especially in high-traffic areas like MTH and Lavish. Pack them into your inventory using the wrench before/after restarts and when you log off. 

RULE 10: VEHICLE PARKING. ALWAYS PACK VEHICLES BEFORE SERVER RESTART/STOPPAGE. Vehicles parked at the traders, outside of your garage, military, or anywhere on the map will be removed. Every player has a MAX 1x REPLACEMENT they can use to get back a deleted vehicle by making a ticket. This is a 1x lifetime and does not reset with wipes. If you've used your 1x, and your vehicle is removed, it will not be replaced--NO EXCEPTIONS.  

VEHICLE SWEEPS OCCUR ONCE A WEEK - IT WILL ALWAYS BE ANNOUNCED VIA DISCORD + INGAME ANNOUNCEMENTS, SOMETIMES EVEN 24 HOURS IN ADVANCE. VEHICLE SHOULD BE PACKED AND NOT LEFT ON THE MAP. FAILURE TO DO THIS WILL RESULT IN A DELETED VEHICLE THAT WILL NOT BE RETURNED.

RULE 11: PLAYER DEATH - IF YOU DIE, ADMIN WILL NOT ASSIST IN RETRIEVING YOUR ITEMS. This is DayZ & you are going to die repeatedly. The ONLY time items will be compensated is if you die due to the SERVER crashing, or a mistake made by the admin team. This EXCLUDES desync and lag spikes. If the issue is not server-side, gear and vehicles will not be replaced.

GEAR RECOMPENSATION: Admin will only replace/comp gear if you have PROOF of your inventory and the issue was caused by the server. Proof includes screen shots or video evidence. No proof – no replacement. Admins will not teleport players because of player death. Vehicles will not be replaced due to DESYNC or player irresponsibility. Vehicles should be PACKED NOT LEFT ON THE MAP, and players should idle 15 minutes prior to any restart to avoid issues.

RULE 12: NO LOOT CYCLING OR DUPING. This affects the loot drop rates and makes uneven loot for the whole of the community. Please do not affect other players games by doing this. We monitor this and have duping prevention on our servers. Loot cycling is just what it sounds like...removing loot you don't want making way for the chance of better loot to spawn in. Take what you want and move on. As this affects everyone and their looting experience, players caught loot cycling will be immediately and permanently removed from the community. 'I didn't know what loot cycling was' is not a valid excuse. 

RULE 13: NO TROLLING PLAYERS or affecting their gameplay. This includes feeding them anything unless asked otherwise. 

RULE 14: THE NAME "SURVIVOR" is not allowed. You will receive 3 warnings regarding this issue. If you fail to change the name from Survivor, you will ultimately be banned. This is in place for a reason. 

RULE 15: DO NOT SPAM the text chat channels in discord or in game. 

RULE 16: If you plan on driving to the Main Trade Hub, Lavish Firearms, or Black Market please park your vehicle in the global garage on the outside of Black Market and Lavish Firearms, if at Main Trade Hub, the Global garage is located by the big tower. Please do not park inside the compound.

RULE 17: AIRDROPS/CAMPER EVENTS. These must be claimed via GLOBAL CHAT and you must be in the vicinity [view distance: 100-200m] - so if you have engaged in the airdrop and have not claimed it globally, another player is bound to "claim that airdrop". You saying "claimed" in global chat saves everyone else time on attempting to claim the airdrop. If someone steals your airdrop after it’s been claimed, please CLIP it and open a ticket.

RULE 18: THE DARK HORDE & THE FLYING DRAGON. The first player(s) to engage the horde may claim the horde. This specifically means catching aggro from the Horde first and claiming it in the public chat. You may not claim the horde unless you are the first person to aggro it. Do not run into any trader/safe zones while engaging the Horde. Not only will this NOT keep you safe, but it will break the functionality of the traders. 

RULE 18.1: NO CHEESING ANY CHALLENGES/BOSSES. Approach these challenges the way they were meant to be fought. Cheesing is defined as using any means or action to circumvent the way the challenge was meant to be played. This includes using vehicles to run over bosses, kiting them to buildings where you can safely climb and shoot w/o taking damage, or finding/exploiting map/building barriers/walls/objects/rocks/trains/air/atoms/literally anything at all, in/out of the server, DayZ, existing/extinct, in/out of the entire universe,--to gain an unnatural advantage. Don't place barriers so you can heal. Players caught doing this will have the boss/event deleted as well as any loot or prize associated with it. Repeated offenses may result in a full character wipe including bank account, and/or permanent removal from the community.

RULE 19: SITTING IDLE FOR RESTART. It is highly recommended for all players to park and sit idle the last 10 minutes before a restart, if your character meets the untimely fate of dying right before a restart your items will be gone and will not be replaced by the Admin Team. Play smart and don’t take risks before a restart. 

RULE 20: DEVILS TOOTH DUNGEON. DTD must be claimed in global chat before using your keycard to go inside. You may not wait inside DTD for a restart. DTD is a popular area and must be claimed in global chat. 

RULE 20-1: WORLD BOSSES. Any World Bosses must be claimed in global chat before using your keycard to go inside. You may not wait inside the Arenas for a restart. Boss arenas are a popular area and must be claimed in global chat.

RULE 21: DO NOT LITTER AT TRADE HUBS. Place all garbage inside of the designated garbage bins.

REMINDER: VEHICLE SWEEPS OCCUR ONCE A WEEK - IT WILL ALWAYS BE ANNOUNCED VIA DISCORD + INGAME ANNOUNCEMENTS, SOMETIMES EVEN 24 HOURS IN ADVANCE. PACK YOUR VEHICLES! FAILURE TO DO THIS WILL RESULT IN A DELETED VEHICLE THAT WILL NOT BE RETURNED.

Bases that do not meet these requirements will be deleted at the discretion of the Admin Team. A territory flag is required for any base building. There will be NO leniencies on base building or storage as server performance is important to the whole Reloaded community.

RULE 1: YOU MUST GET PRE-APPROVAL IN DISCORD BEFORE YOU BUILD A BASE. You must post a screenshot of your base location on the map, your in-game name in the #base-request-and-registration channel specific to the server you play on, and wait for an Admin to approve it. Failure to do so will result in your base being deleted with no compensation. 

RULE 2:  YOU MUST ESTABLISH A TERRITORY FLAG upon building. If no flag is present the base will be deleted. 

RULE 3: YOU MUST PHYSICALLY KEEP YOUR FLAG RAISED. If the flag drops TWO (2) flag lengths, the base will be deleted. The flag takes approximately 8 days to drop two notches/lengths. This is done to remove inactive bases and maintain server performance. Playing on the servers does not keep your flag raised, you must physically interact and raise it. If you plan on being inactive due to work, health related issues, or vacation please let us know in advance by opening a ticket. One flag per player and only one flag per base. 

RULE 3.1: BUNKER BASES: You must maintain a flag BOTH on the ground (main map as you would a regular base) AND in your bunker. Two flags must be kept raised as it states above in RULE 3. Failure to do this may result in a bunker base being deleted. 

RULE 4: YOUR BASE MUST BE 2500m from Main Trade Hub | 1500m from any other traders. You must be 1200m from major military zones such as NWAF, Tisy and at least 750m from smaller military bases, any strongholds/saferooms. If you are unsure, please open a ticket. Bases not following these rules will be removed with no compensation.

RULE 5: BASE BUILDING RADIUS. Bases must be built at least 400 meters from any existing base. Any base found within the 400m radius of another base will be removed. Please do not build right next to someone.

RULE 6: MAX NUMBER OF WALLS is 12. Build any configuration you want if the max number does not exceed 12. This includes fencing, gates, or barriers of any kind. Bases may be no more than 2 stories tall including foundation. 

RULE 7: NO FLOATING BASES, BRIDGES, OR MEGA BASES are allowed. 

RULE 8: NO BUILDING IN police, hospitals, fire stations. NO BLOCKING wells, gas pumps, or lumber yards.

RULE 9: NO BUILDING ACROSS ROADS or closing off roads with base building items.

RULE 10: Base storage shall not exceed 3000 slots for a base. This 3000 value is the max if you are solo or basing with multiple players. You must indicate who you plan on basing with when you register, and those members of your group may not have separate bases. Any items that can hold inventory are counted toward the maximum number of slots.

RULE 11: You may chose to use either a CabinZ kit or build with vanilla materials/BBP. You may not have both a CabinZ and a BBP/vanilla 12-walled structure. You may not use more than 2 tents per base. If you are using a CabinZ kit or vanilla/BBP, you may not use a camp house. You may use a total of 2 gun racks OR walls, not both. This does not increase if basing with more than one player—2 max of one type. Same applies for Greenhouses – 2 max. The idea is to keep your base small as we exceed 150 bases in a matter of weeks. Extra structures will be deleted by the Admin team and your inventory will not be compensated. If you have any questions, please open a ticket.

RULE 12: NO CAMO NETS ALLOWED on any base walls or tents. Walls/tents with camo nets will be deleted by admin. The inventory of tents found with camo nets will not be compensated if the tent is deleted. Camo nets kill both player-side and server-side performance. 

RULE 13: MAX of 2 Green Houses OR 2 Garden plots at base. Not 2 of each. 2 total max.

RULE 14: YOU MUST BE ACTIVE TO BUILD/MAINTAIN A BASE. Those who have bases and are not part of Reloaded discord or have built without Base Registration will have their bases removed. You must also post a map screenshot of your base location along with your IG name at #cherno-base-approvals. There will be NO leniencies on base building or storage. Server performance is important to the whole Reloaded community.

RULE 15: PLACING/BUILDING OBJECTS: If it is not part of your base, do not build or place objects anywhere on the map. Nothing. Anywhere. Do not place anything that is not part of your base, period. This includes temporary structures to escape or heal from enemies, lockers for gear, or fighting world bosses/challenges. Buried loot stashes as provided by vanilla DayZ are allowed. Players found placing objects will be banned without warning or explanation. This is the warning.
