Discord Server Rules

These rules apply to all members of the Roleplay Project Discord server. Violations may result in mutes, kicks, or bans from both Discord and the game server.

1. Respect All Members
Treat everyone with respect. No harassment, bullying, discrimination, hate speech, racism, sexism, homophobia, or personal attacks. Disagreements are fine — toxicity is not.

2. No Metagaming via Discord
Do not share in-character information through Discord. This includes locations, plans, faction operations, drug lab locations, or any IC knowledge. Discord is an OOC platform. Violating this is metagaming and will be punished in-game as well.

3. Use Channels Correctly
Post content in the appropriate channels. Keep general chat clean and on-topic. Do not spam, flood, or post repetitive messages. Use the correct support channels for help requests and reports.

4. No NSFW Content
Do not post any NSFW, pornographic, or sexually explicit content anywhere in the Discord. This includes images, videos, links, GIFs, and text. No exceptions.

5. No Advertising or Self-Promotion
Do not advertise other servers, communities, products, services, or personal content (streams, YouTube, etc.) without explicit permission from staff.

6. No Doxxing or Sharing Personal Information
Never share another person's personal information (real name, address, phone number, social media, photos, etc.) without their explicit consent. This results in an immediate permanent ban from both Discord and the server.

7. English Only
All communication in the Discord must be in English. This ensures everyone can understand and participate in conversations.

8. No Impersonation
Do not impersonate staff members, other players, or any public figures. Do not use misleading nicknames or profile pictures designed to impersonate others.

9. Report Issues Properly
Use the designated report and support channels to report rule breakers, bugs, or issues. Do not publicly call out players in general chat - handle it through the proper channels. Staff will review all reports.

10. Staff Decisions Are Final
Respect staff decisions. If you disagree with a moderation action, use the appeals process. Do not argue with staff publicly in Discord channels. Continued disruption after a decision has been made will result in further action.

11. Alt Accounts
Using alternative Discord accounts to bypass bans, mutes, or restrictions is prohibited. All alt accounts will be banned and the original ban extended.

12. Voice Channel Conduct
In voice channels: no mic spamming, soundboards, music bots in active conversations, or excessive background noise. Be considerate of others. Do not record voice conversations without consent from all participants.
