Server Rules

These rules apply to our Chernarus PVEPVP server only and may differ to the rules of our other servers.

Our game server should not be accessed by minors or those under the age of 18. DayZ is rated as a PEGI 18 game and so to be a responsible community we do not accept members under this age limit. By continuing use of our game server, you agree that you are of or over this age. Anyone found to be under the age limit risks being removed.

General
Any type of hacking, cheating, glitching, duping or DDOS attacks is strictly prohibited.
No hate speech, offensive language, racial or discriminative chat in both text chat and voice chat.
Player names should not be that of any known political figure, world leader, brand, registered trademark name or copyrighted content.
No text chat or voice chat spamming, this includes playing music or soundboards through the voice chat system.
No impersonating of staff or admin, for both End of Dayz and Bohemia Interactive. Including changing your name to that of a staff or admin, or adding tags like [Admin] to the start of your name.
No impersonating another player, including changing your in-game name to that of another player.

Base Building
A flag pole is required to be placed and claimed before building a base. This excludes tents, which can be placed down to act as a temporary shelter whilst gathering materials for your base.
Solo players are only allowed to build one flag pole and one base.
Duo or group players are only allowed to have one flag pole active at their group base, and only one group base is allowed per group.
The maximum base size is 4 Wide x 4 Deep x 3 High (2 levels of rooms plus foundations).
The overuse of tents (known as tent stacking) is prohibited.
Floating bases are prohibited, along with overhangs and canopies which have no supports.
Water bases are allowed as long as they connect to the ground level with foundations.

Base Containers & Loot Storage
You MUST use the V2 Barrels for your primary base storage (the barrels with the name tags on them). V2 Barrels are specially designed to limit loot lag inside bases, and must be used to store 80%+ of your loot. They are buyable from the trader at a very cheap price, and you may have as many V2 Barrels as you like.
You MUST NOT use vanilla barrels for primary base storage, nor have many of them in your base. You may have 1-2 when you first start out if you find them and carry them back to your base as a temporary storage solution, but for the long-term they should be replaced with the V2 barrels as soon as possible in order to reduce loot lag.
The overuse of safes, lockers, gun walls and any other storage item that isn’t V2 Barrels is prohibited. You may have a maximum of 8x (eight) safes, gun safes, lockers and gun walls in total per base. This means that you may only have up to 8x (eight) alternative storage containers in total per base that aren’t V2 Barrels.
Other storage items that are more decor related such as fridges, beds, and shelves are exempt from this rule, and can be used as normal.

In Locations That Block Access To Shared Or Publicly Available Resources/Objects Such As Cement Mixers and Gas Stations.

📌 In regards to where the distance is measured from, especially for Tisy/NWAF/Troitski military areas which have a shaded zone on the map, measure the distance from the centre of your base/territory to the closest edge of the shaded area, or to the closest edge of the perimeter of the military zone.

Raiding & Bases (PvE & PvP)
Raiding through the use of base destruction is prohibited, raid tools are not active on the server and so no attempt should be made to damage another player's base in order to gain access.
The use of glitches and any unintentional methods of gaining access into another player's locked base is prohibited.
Entering another players’ base if there is no door, if the door has been left open, or if the door has been left unlocked without a codelock is allowed, unless the owner is visibly online and actively still setting up their base.
Taking over another players’ base if there is no door, if the door has been left open, if the door has been left unlocked without a codelock, or if the door has decayed is allowed as long as there is a flag pole in situ which has now visibly expired (lowered fully).

Vehicles (PvE & PvP)
It is highly recommended to use the vehicle garage located at the two main traders to safely store your vehicle inside the virtual garage when logging off, especially if you do not have a base to store your vehicle at.
Note: Storing a vehicle inside the vehicle garage does save the items stored inside.
Do not block the garage spawn points, or entry and exit points in and out of safe zoned main traders (Severograd & Mogilevka) with a vehicle.
Do not leave vehicles parked at a safe zone (trader) for more than 24 hours.
Damaging locked, unmanned vehicles inside PvE, including but not limited to shooting tires, windows or any other part of the vehicle is prohibited.
Damaging locked, unmanned vehicles inside PvP, including but not limited to shooting tires, windows or any other part of the vehicle is prohibited.
Vehicles in PvP can be shot at if there is a target (player) inside of the vehicle, in order to try to kill said player, but not as an attempt to ruin the vehicle.
Unlocked vehicles inside of safe zones (traders) cannot be stolen if the owner of said vehicle is actively around within the safe zone.
Unlocked vehicles inside of safe zones (traders) cannot be stolen within 15 minutes of being left unattended. This is to give adequate time for the owner to come back in the event of a disconnect, afk or other reason. Note: A video recording of you waiting at least 15 minutes before stealing an unlocked vehicle inside a trader is mandatory to prevent disputes.
Unlocked vehicles anywhere outside of safe zones (traders) but still inside PvE can be stolen if the owner of said vehicle is not actively around said vehicle.
Unlocked vehicles anywhere inside PvP can be stolen.

PvP Zones, Player Looting & Player Killing
PvP Zones are marked on your map (M) and are within the red highlighted areas.
If you go into a PvP zone, be on alert and always be on the lookout for other players who may be out to attack you. PvP is PvP, and no complaints will be upheld for being legitimately killed by another player within a PvP zone.
Dead player corpses can be looted within PvE zones, although it’s nice to be friendly!
Dead player corpses can be looted within PvP zones.
Dead player vehicles can be stolen within PvP zones, IF they have been left unlocked.
Be aware that in some PvP areas, there are AI bandit NPC’s. Fighting these, or being found by these may give up your position and notify other players in the area that someone is around, due to the sound of the gunfire being heard.
