General Rules

You must have a working microphone:

You are required to have and use a working microphone and you must speak to roleplay properly.

Mic spamming by way of yelling or screaming inappropriately, soundboards, or music bots is strictly prohibited.

Unrealistic voice changers (eg. chipmunk voice) are not permitted on TangoRP. If you are using a voice changer that the staff deem unrealistic (or annoying), you will be warned. If you continue to use the voice changer after being warned, you will be subject to harsher punishments.

No RDM (Random Deathmatch):

At no point in time can you down or kill someone without initiating hostile roleplay.

You must give a player a reasonable amount of time to comply with your demand(s)

Giving a player an impossible demand and then killing them will result in punishment.

If the player complies you must come up with a proper reason to kill them, ex: "You've seen too much so I must kill you."

Initiating hostile roleplay has to be done through voice communication.

No VDM (Vehicle Deathmatch):

At no point can you use your vehicle as a weapon. The only exception is you're in immediate danger, but have an opportunity to defend yourself with your vehicle. This exception is only when someone is directly in front of your vehicle.

If someone runs into your vehicle you are not at fault.

No Hostile Action at Green-Zones (aka Safe Zones):

Green-Zones in the server are: MRPD, Pillbox Hospital, Job Centre/Spawn

Green-Zones are locations where you may not engage in or initiate any hostile roleplay. This includes but is not limited to taking hostages, pointing/shooting weapons, punching/attacking other players.

Avoid taking hostile roleplay into a Green-Zone. If hostile roleplay is taken into a Green-Zone it can be continued, and must be finished fully In-Character.

FailRP/Trolling:

Excessive harassment and trolling can result in a server ban.

Derogatory remarks about: race, religion, gender, sexual preference, sexual orientation, gender identity, etc. whether it be in RP, on the forums, etc. is not allowed.

Role-playing sexual assault (non-consensual touching, rape, etc.) is not allowed.

Do not spam chat.

Do not cop bait, (Ex: baiting the cops into a chase/bait them to robberies, bait them through 911, ect) will result in server kicks/bans

Do not spawn vehicles for jobs and leave them in the spawn area. If you are not going to use a vehicle store it.

You may NOT Role play as any form of a Terrorist organisation explicitly to create chaos via explosions, ramming or firing.

Storing or chopping a vehicle while actively engaged in an RP scenario (eg. a police chase) is considered FailRP.

Stealing a police or EMS vehicle, including helicopters is prohibited.

No MetaGaming:

Metagaming is defined as: Using external factors, information, or knowledge your character would not be able to obtain through normal means of game play.

Using any information from streams, forums, or discord in-game is not allowed. Your character can only know what they learn IN-GAME in In Character fashion.

No Power Gaming:

Power Gaming is defined as: Using mechanics or roleplaying mechanics that do not exist OR unfairly overpowering other players in a roleplay scenario when it wouldn't be possible. Eg. "Hacking police computers to delete video records"

No Combat Logging:

You may never disconnect while in the middle of an RP scenario with another player. Including while in custody of a police officer.

If you are in an active gunfight and are downed then you proceed to log this is considered combat logging. Wait for EMS to revive you or respawn if possible.

If your game crashes make an attempt to contact the officers or people involved.

Abuse of OOC chat:

/ooc (out of character chat) is not to be used for arguments, harassment, or derogatory remarks. Be respectful of other players in game. If you have a complaint about someone place it in the player complaint section of the forum OR open a Ticket in Discord.

NVL (No Value of Life):

You must value your life as if you are actually your character!

If you are held at gun point you must comply with their demands, you are not to pull out your weapon and shoot them, or run away.

If you have a friend that gets the jump on the person holding you up they may then take over the situation by putting a gun to them.

The friend must initiate hostile role play with the person first, they cannot just shoot the person.

If you or the person you are holding up complies with your demand you must have a legitimate reason to kill them.

If you are outnumbered by a party who have weapons and proceed to use your weapon against them this is considered no value for your life.

If someone has you at gunpoint and lowers their guard AND turns their body away from your person you may try to escape the situation or take advantage.

This is different for police, if a police officer is held at gun point and an officer around the corner is notified he is allowed to shoot if deemed clear to.

NLR (New Life Rule):

When you die and get revived:

If you are killed and revived you do not have to forget who killed you or how you died.

Unless you personally know the person who killed you, do not identify the person to anyone by name, only by clothes and face.

All charges that could be applied if you committed any crimes can still be applied.

When you die and respawn:

If you are killed and respawn you are to forget any details about the previous situation that got you killed.

You may not report to the police that you were murdered.

You may not go back to the scene of the crime and harass the person who killed you.

Unless you are killed by the police all prior charges the police have out on you still apply.

Additional Guidelines

Hostage Situations:

If the PD complies with your requests you must ensure that the hostages lives are secure and safe.

You cannot request impossible things from police or hostages

Police Cameras:

Killing Police Officers at Police Department and Committing crimes around the outside of a Police Department will be picked up on camera. Even if you kill the cops there, they can review the "recording" and arrest those who raided the PD. This means if a cop is killed at a Police Department he/she can "remember" the clothing of the suspects involved, and anyone fully identified and ran through the police system prior to an officers death can be "remembered". The police are not to say "you killed me", they are to say "you killed an officer(s) at the PD".

Player Robberies:

You cannot force players to /transfer you money from their bank account.

You cannot force players to sell you a car or property.

The maximum amount that can be robbed from another player is $15,000

The maximum amount that can be scammed from another player is $30,000

When holding people up, you cannot instantly take peoples coms/gps and weapons if you do not have them restrained, once you restrain (ziptie/cuff) them you can role play taking their coms, gps, weapons, etc.

When holding someone up you need to keep a safe and smart position. In situations where the person is not at risk of immediate death, the person who is being held up may retaliate by either punching or pushing you.

Bank/Store Robberies:

To be involved in a bank robbery you must be inside or the near vicinity of the building being robbed. If you have someone attempting to assist in the robbery they must initiate.

All hostages need to be legitimate! Either by kidnapping them or if they are at the place being robbed. Pretend hostages are not allowed.

Do not take hostages from green-zones, this includes Pillbox and MRPD.

Only time you can Kill On Sight (KOS) someone at a robbery is if they run into the bank/store with a gun out in a hostile way. If not you must initiate some form of threatening role-play with the people/cops outside.

Cops will try and negotiate with people at robberies, you will have more than a heads-up before they start shooting, so you may not KOS them until hostile role-play has been stated.

Police/Car Chases:

You must have good reason (wanted, have illegal items, etc) to speed off from a traffic stop.

Don't ram people's vehicles unrealistically in ways that could threaten your character's life, whether you are a cop or a civilian. This would fall under the NVL rule.

Police CAN pit and ram but ONLY with pushbar extras attached to a police vehicle and the suspect must be going over 100mph or at least highway speed.

Changing your character model:

You cannot change your player model for 24 hours after committing a crime. For example, you cannot change your player model from a_m_m_beach_01 to a_m_m_tourist_01. You CAN modify your clothes, hair color, etc. if you are using an mp_freemode model, you just can't use another model other than mp_freemode for the next 24 hours.

OOC Chat:

/ooc (out of character chat) is not to be used for arguments, harassment, or derogatory remarks. Be respectful of other players in game. If you have a complaint about someone place it in the player complaint section of the forum.

Toxicity:

TangoRP is a strong believer that all players alike should be able to enjoy their experience on and around our network. Disrespect, harassing members, cyber-bullying, racism, stereotypical behavior, sexual harassment, or excessive questionable behavior is not allowed.

Sharing Accounts:

Sharing accounts on TangoRP is not permitted. If someone gains access to your account, we are not responsible for any losses or bans you may incur. TangoRP accounts sync directly with your Steam account, so keep your Steam details safe.

Transferring Money/Assets:

Transferring money or assets between characters is strictly prohibited unless permission is granted by a Community Manager or higher. Doing so without permission will be treated as exploiting for money/assets and you can be banned from the server.

Staff Discretion:

Unfortunately, these rules do not cover every single situation. If a situation occurs where TangoRP or it's players are affected in a negative way, an administrator or higher has the ability to ban you for a reason not listed in the rules. The member of staff who makes use of this "Staff Discretion" policy must provide you with a thorough explanation for the ban and it must be clear that you had a negative impact on the community and/or it's players.
