Before you are told once
The terms
Chaos is the point. Cheating is not. Break these and you stop being a problem we have to think about.
General Conduct
Permanent banThe baseline. Break these and you are gone.
- No hacking, cheating or exploiting. Zero tolerance, no appeals.
- No glitching. If it looks like a bug and you are using it to win, it is.
- No market exploits. Using a trader pricing bug to farm currency is an exploit.
- No combat logging. Do not log out within 10 minutes of taking or dealing damage unless you died. Inside your own base you can log whenever you like.
- No racism or hate speech. Instant, permanent, not up for debate.
- No toxic behaviour. Trash talk is part of the game. Harassment is not.
- No ban evading. Alt accounts get the same ban as the original.
- Open a ticket for issues. Do not argue it out in global chat.
Vehicles
GuidelineDrive and fly at your own risk. DayZ physics owes you nothing.
- Drive and fly at your own risk. We do not replace vehicles lost to terrain, desync or your own optimism.
- Do not park at the trader. Vehicles left at a trader will be deleted without warning.
- Do not uncover someone else’s vehicle unless you are actually stealing it. Pulling a cover off to peek is not allowed.
Safe Zones
Strike / temp banNeutral ground. Keep it that way.
- No stealing gear or vehicles inside a safe zone.
- No building within 600 metres of a safe zone or a military area.
- No cutting trees in safe zones.
- No garden plots in safe zones.
- No camping or strafing safe zone exits. Let people leave.
- Abandoned items will be deleted. If you drop it and walk away, it is gone.
Raiding
Strike / temp banRaiding is always on. Grief is not raiding.
- You can raid 24/7. There is no protection window. Build with that in mind.
- You may stack two items. For example two ladders, one on the ground and one on top.
- You may stand on another player, a car, or a placed item.
- No prop stacking beyond what is listed above.
- No griefing. Taking down walls or objects purely because you can is not a raid.
- No glitch raiding. Every object you use must touch the ground or be attached to a structure. Placing objects in mid-air to gain height is a ban.
- Do not litter when raiding. If you cannot carry what you pulled out, put it in another storage item, a fire barrel or a fireplace. Stolen loot is yours to do what you like with, just do not leave it strewn across the ground.
Base Building
Strike / temp banBuild something that could plausibly stand up, and that someone could plausibly get into.
- Everything must be attached to the ground and structurally realistic.
- No more than two floating floors. You may overhang two floors before attaching back to the ground or to something connected to it.
- Every base must be raidable through at least one door. No blocking doors, no disassembling gates to seal yourself in.
- No other size limits right now. If we start seeing server lag, that changes and we will announce it first.
