Sanctum Noir RP City Rules

Sanctum Noir is a story-first, consequence-heavy roleplay server. These rules exist to protect immersion, fairness, and people.

Section 01: Staff, Authority & Global Policies

• Staff reserve the right to act on behavior that harms the experience or breaks the spirit of fair, immersive RP.
• No RDM, VDM, Metagaming, Powergaming, FailRP, NVL, Exploiting, Harassment, OOC Targeting, or Troll RP.
• Zero tolerance for hate speech and slurs; this results in an instant, likely permanent, ban.
• Real Money Trading (RMT) is strictly prohibited.
• Accounts (Steam, Discord, FiveM) must be at least 30 days old.

Section 02: Core Roleplay Standards

• OOC talk in city voice regarding real-life issues, rules, or stream chat is prohibited.
• Metagaming (using info not learned in-RP) is forbidden.
• Combat logging (quitting to avoid death, arrest, or scene consequences) is prohibited.
• Value of Life (NVL): If at a clear disadvantage with a weapon drawn on you, you must comply.
• New Life Rule: If your character dies, you must forget events leading directly to your death.

Section 03: Violence & Police

• RDM: You cannot injure or kill someone without prior RP escalation and valid IC reason.
• VDM: Vehicles cannot be used as primary weapons (running people over, etc.).
• Do not bait cops, spam crimes, or know 10-codes like a veteran officer.

Section 04: Jobs & Locations

• Hospitals and job hubs are "soft" protected zones with no faction beefs or shootouts.
• Civilians doing jobs are off-limits for robberies unless they escalate or provoke.
• Dark RP requires OOC consent before starting.

Section 05: Tech & Exploits

• Any use of cheats (injectors, aimbots, ESP) is an immediate permanent ban.
• Altered game files providing unfair advantages (no fog, tracers, glowing outlines) are forbidden.

Section 06: Crime & Heists

• Heists must respect player caps (e.g., Small Store: 2, Fleeca: 4).
• You must have a clear RP reason to rob someone; pocket-wiping players entirely is not allowed.

Section 07: Factions & Gangs

• Unapproved factions cannot claim turf or start wars.
• Approved factions must wear clear identifiers during gang activity.
• Faction wars must be approved by Faction Control/Staff with clear terms.
