Purposely shooting vehicles in PvE is also included".
G.12 - If a Player is AFK in a PvE or SAFE ZONE they CAN NOT be looted, tied up, forced fed, given blood or tampered with. If they are AFK in a PvP zone, do as you wish!
G.13 - Player interaction is encouraged whether it's PvE or PvP.

G.16 - You are NOT allowed log out in someone's territory.
G.17 - If you join a Faction or Group, you do so at your own risk, Admins will not intervene for internal conflicts, i.e If a member of your faction takes your weapon and you want it back, deal with it between yourselves.
G.18 - Force feeding a player WITHOUT their consent is a form of PVP
G.19 - All players can be killed in a PvP zone, if you kill an admin, no one's going to ban you, we don't know where you are on the map or what you're doing (Unless we are conducting Admin duties) (All admin controls are recorded and logged)
G.20 - Players wearing RED/BLACK CAMO with “ADMIN” on chest are conducting Admin Duties and are not to be interacted with unless they are specifically assisting you or your Faction.
G.21 - You are NOT allowed Impersonate staff or pretend to be an admin.
G.22 - Most things come down to common sense, remember we are all here to have fun. Be respectful and don't be a Male appendage. It's as simple as that now let's go have some fun!! Good luck survivor!
