DayZ Reloaded PVE SERVER RULES!

---

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. 

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

RULE 2: ABSOLUTELY NO PVP or KOS (Kill on Sight) is allowed at any time, anywhere on the map. Cherno & Deer Isle is a 100% PVE server.

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

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 DIE IT IS NOT THE ADMINS JOB TO HELP RETRIEVE YOUR ITEMS. This is DayZ, you are going to die! Especially if you are playing on a server with AI Soldiers. If you have a problem IN-GAME please open a ticket in #tickets by typing /open. Please do not yell ADMIN repeatedly in-game. An admin will respond as soon as possible.

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.

RULE 7: NO BASE RAIDING! This includes any bases you find open or unlocked. If it’s not yours, don't touch it.

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

RULE 9: VEHICLES parked at the traders or outside of your garage (anywhere on the map) for more than 3 restarts WILL be removed. [3 Server restarts = 9 hours].

RULE 10: VEHICLE PARKING. ALWAYS park vehicles inside the parking garage kit before server restart / server stoppage. If you do not park the vehicle inside and it disappears the vehicle will not be replaced. The parking kit is used exactly for that reason - to prevent vehicles from despawning.

RULE 11: NO LOOT CYCLING! This affects the game drop rates and makes uneven loot for the whole community. Please do not affect others gameplay by doing this.

RULE 11.1 DUPING - We have dupe prevention on our servers, if you attempt to dupe you will bust yourself. 

RULE 12: NO TROLLING PLAYERS or affecting their gameplay. 

RULE 13: 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 14: DO NOT SPAM the text chat channels in discord or in game. Admins will not teleport players because of player death. Vehicles will not be replaced due to DESYNC or player irresponsibility. Vehicles should be parked 15 minutes prior to any restart to avoid issues.

RULE 15: NO LEAVING VEHICLES IN MILITARY ZONES, ALL VEHICLES LEFT IN MILITARY WILL BE REMOVED.

RULE 16: If you plan on driving to the TRADE HUB please park your vehicle in the global garage outside of trade hub. Please do not park inside the compound. 

RULE 17: AIRDROPS. Airdrops 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 typing "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 send it to an @Admin.

RULE 18: DO NOT FEED PEOPLE TAINTED MEAT! Do not feed other players tainted meat unless asked otherwise. This can ruin the experience for some. 

RULE 19: THE DARK HORDE! The first player(s) to engage the horde may claim the horde. This specifically means catching aggro from the Horde. You may not claim the horde if you have not engaged the Horde physically. When claiming the horde, please follow the natural mechanics, do not purposefully NOT kill the horde master so that zombies keep spawning in, this prevents the natural flow of the dark horde and prevents others from doing the activity.

IF THE DARK HORDE has aggro'd to you, PLEASE do not run into any of the traders, not only will this NOT keep you safe but it will BREAK functionality of traders.

RULE 20: SITTING IDLE FOR RESTART. It is highly recommended for all players to park and sit idle the last 5-10 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. Think smarter not harder.

RULE 21: DO NOT KILL AI AT TRADE HUBS. If you attempt to kill AI security at Trade Hub they will return fire. If you are to have been found firing upon AI with blue ARMBANDS then all AI that are considered friendly will turn on you. It’s in ones best interest to leave blue armbands alone or you might get hunted down and regret your decision! Reminder - Blue = friendly and Red = Enemy!

Bases that do not meet these requirements will be deleted as per the discretion of the Admin Team. A territory flag is needed for any base building. 

RULE 1: YOU MUST GET PRE-APPROVAL IN DISCORD BEFORE YOU BUILD A BASE. You must post in the #base-request-and-registration channel and wait for an Admin to approve it. Failure to do so will result in your base being removed with no compensation. 

RULE 2:  YOU MUST ESTABLISH a territory flag upon building, if no flag is present the base will be deleted, if the flag drops to half or below the base will be deleted, this must be done to weed out inactive players and conserve space. If you plan on being inactive due to work, health related issues or vacation please let us know in advance. ONE FLAG PER BASE.

RULE 3: YOUR BASE MUST BE 2000m from Main Trade Hub & 1200m from any other traders. You must be 1200m from major military zones such as NWAF, Tisy and atleast 750m from smaller military bases. If you are unsure, please ask an Admin for approval. Bases within 1200m will be removed with no compensation.

RULE 4: BASE BUILDING RADIUS. Bases must be built at least 250 meters from any existing base. Any base found within the 250m radius of another base will be removed. Please do not build right next to someone.

RULE 5: MAX NUMBER OF VANILLA WALLS is 12

RULE 6: NO FLOATING BASES, BRIDGES, OR MEGA BASES are allowed. 

RULE 7: NO BUILDING IN MILITARY STRUCTURES or mission destinations. NO BLOCKING wells, gas pumps, or lumber yards.

RULE 8: NO BUILDING ACROSS ROADS or closing off roads with base building items.

RULE 9: Bases can be a maximum of 2 stories high, and you can only build a 3x3x2 thats 12 walls per floor. (the 12 does includes gates, and doors). 

RULE 10: A max of 3500 slots base storage per player and addition of 500 slots PER ADDITIONAL PLAYERS living at that base and up to a total of 4500 slots at any 1 base. This means no base shall exceed 4500 SLOTS. You MAY use either BBP, CAMP HOUSE, CABIN, or TENTS as an actual base! Limits per territory flag ---> [1] CabinZ Kit or 2 Camp Houses OR Base Building Plus [do not build a base from BBP then add a cabin also] If you have a member and you both wish to have CabinZ Kits you must both build Separately 250m apart and both have flags.

RULE 11: 2 tents per player with a max of 4 per base - 2 gun racks / walls MAXIMUM per base.

RULE 12: A max of 3 vehicles (Helis and Cars) at a base with an addition of 1 vehicle per resident and a max of 4 vehicles should be placed within YOUR GARAGE when not in use, including helicopters. If left out at trader or random locations it WILL be removed.

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

RULE 14: MAX amount of PC's in one base is [2]. For newer players this may be confusing, but this means the PCs you can find on the server that mines bitcoin for you. The LIMIT IS 2 PER BASE.

RULE 15: Due to us having 2 Cherno PvE servers, you are limited to [1] base on [1] server. The whole reasoning behind cherno 2 being added was to help split up the population / bases on one map. To clarify, you are allowed only [1] base on either Cherno 1 or Cherno 2, you may not have bases on both simultaneously!

RULE 16: 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.
