Rules

Do not treat these rules as a comprehensive list of EVERYTHING that can get you in trouble; these rules outline the types of things that will get you punished, depending on the context and circumstances. Simply put, just because it isn't explicitly written here does not mean it isn't against the rules; we give more than enough examples on what types of things violate the rules, simply do not toe the line and you will most certainly be fine!

SPLURT Station 13's In-Game Rules

Rule	Explanation
1. Malice	Under no circumstances should you be intentionally attempting to harm or hinder another player's experience on Splurtstation; accidents certainly happen, however, outright harassment, metagrudging, malicious dishonesty, griefing, etcetera, will not be tolerated. Similarly, starting unnecessary physical conflicts, removing other players from the round, abusing exploits in a disruptive manner, creating infectious diseases/nanites, and forcing chemicals on other players all violate this rule as well. Effectively, if you are doing something simply for the sake of putting down another player, you are likely violating this rule. The scenarios listed two sentences prior are simply examples of what sorts of activities violate this rule, they are NOT a complete list of every conceivable infraction.
2. Impact	Activities that considerably impact the server in a negative way violate this rule; this includes, but is not limited to, end-of-round grief ON the station or escape pod docking ship, end-of-round grief on the escape shuttle BEFORE the shuttle has docked with Central Command, repeatedly breaking into secure areas for no particular reason, calling the escape shuttle without a just reason, quick-launching the escape shuttle without a just reason, sending security on a wild goose chase, etcetera. Similarly, validhunting also violates this rule, as antagonists should always be the ones to initialize conflict; if they do not do so, then they are to be treated in a friendly manner until they otherwise prove to be hostile! Lastly, round disruptions violate this rule if they are done without permission; examples of round disruptions include, but are not limited to, prison breakouts, riots, mutinies, etcetera.
3. Roleplay	Above all else, this is an EROTIC ROLEPLAY server and, whilst we do allow other activities as well, your actions should not disrupt roleplay as a result. As such, excessive non-english speech, copy-pastas, and spamming all violate this rule. Additionally, you are expected to stay in-character at all times, which means that OOC matters must, similarly, be kept OUT of character; if you need to speak about something unrelated to the round at hand, do so via local OOC, or OOC, if applicable. Furthermore, emojis, netspeak, etcetera, should not be said by your character, though you may use all of these things in PDA messages and the like. Lastly, slurs are ONLY allowed in-character, and not anywhere else; even then, they should be used sparingly, if at all. Please keep in mind that these are all EXAMPLES of activities that violate this rule, and are not a complete list.
4. Consent	Violating another character's preferences, or commiting erotic acts against a player that does not consent, utterly violates this rule. With that in mind, if your non-con preferences are set to 'Yes', you waive your right to fight back against your would-be non-consensual roleplay partners, no matter WHAT they do to your character; the ONLY exceptions are if you speak up in LOOC to voice your disapproval, or if what they are doing goes against another part of your OOC notes. Additionally, you are not to call for help over comms, as doing so would simply start a witch hunt against your roleplay partner. With that in mind, the CONSEQUENCES of your ERP is only decided AFTER your scene has been completed, and you MUST have out-of-character consent from your roleplay partner if you wish to do anything thereafter that may get them into in-character trouble. As for involving yourself in others' ERP, assuming it is in a semi-private place, you are allowed to ask to join them via LOOC, however, if they decline, you MUST leave the area immediately thereafter, and you may NOT act on whatever you saw there. On the flipside, if you are ERPing in a department-specific, public area, and someone from said department asks you to leave, you are expected to do so; for example, if the bartender asks you to leave the bar mid-ERP, you must do so. Lastly, dorms are UTTERLY protected, and should NEVER be invaded in any way, shape, or form; this includes acting disruptively directly OUTSIDE of dorms as well.
5. Standards	There are numerous, various standards that you are expected to follow, and failing to do so violates this rule. The most obvious examples of these standards are the security standards, antagonist standards, command standards, silicon standards, etcetera; continually failing to follow these standards, when playing these roles, will likely result in a job ban. This is especially true for members of command and security, as both of these role types are held to a higher standard; generally, members of command should not be violating space law, leaving the station Z-level, or otherwise disregarding their duties! Additionally, there are some universal standards that you are expected to follow, regardless of role. Firstly, you are not to respawn as the same character in the same round without admin permission. Secondly, you are not to take items from, or otherwise interact with, an SSD player at all; only after they have been SSD for twenty minutes or longer can you take them to cryo, and, even then, you may only take items off of them if you have a just reason to do so.
