Roleplay RulingsGameplay RulingsBug Rulings Question Answer Date Clarified Can you RP urinating on someone? No. It's LRP & 18+ 16/01/2021 Can I call the incendiary OB "Coom OB"? No, it's LRP/18+ and a sexual reference meme. 21/01/2021 Can I call runner "rooner" In Character? Yes so long as it doesn’t become a problem. 21/01/2021 Can I mutiny the acting CO during hijack? No, but you can mutiny the acting CO if he refuses evacuation as it would be a life or death situation and drastic action may be taken. 31/01/2021 Can I jailbreak before first drop? No. 10/02/2021 Can I refuse to deploy until someone is released from jail, or to break them free? No. 10/02/2021 Can I wear funny uniforms found on colony like pyjamas or school girl uniforms If you're a PFC, go for it, but you're still susceptible to marine law. SLs are held to higher standards and should not do it. 27/04/2021 Can I use Egyptian Hieroglyphs in-game? No, You will be warned and/or given an immediate ban due to it lagging everyone who can see it. Also, if you use it in a command announcement as an SO/XO/Whatever job you’ll be job-banned. If you do it as a CO your whitelist will be revoked immediately on the spot. 03/05/2021 As an XO am I bound to CO guidelines? Yes and no, there are certain things you are expected to do if you’re leading the operation as an XO, which are server rule breaks. Examples being: You must build a FOB and can’t leave the primary LZ defenceless, Shitposting command announcements, etc... If your actions are putting marines at a deliberate disadvantage, you’re effectively griefing and shall not do it. If a CO guideline breach is also a obvious server rule break, we suggest you not do it. 18/05/2021 I use a common name that just happens to be used by a real famous person, do I need to change it? It depends if it's a common normal name. If you don't roleplay like the person or character, and your name is something common like Michael Bolton. Now if you play as Michael Jordan and start talking about basketball, not so much. Staff still reserve the right to make a judgement call and may ask you to change your name. 20/05/2021 Question Answer Date Clarified Can I kill captures close to bursting to farm acid stacks? No. You should not be deliberately killing your captures to farm a game mechanic. It's LRP and exploitative. 21/01/2021 Can I banish xenos in research so they can be killed to reclaim larva? No, Banish is for xenos that are disobeying the Queen or otherwise breaking the RP Standards for xenos. 21/01/2021 As a xeno can I bomb the generators with fuel tanks? No. 16/02/2021 Can I overdose an MP on chems to avoid arrest? No, it's similar to shooting at an MP, can be lethal, and is a misuse of chems. It's also LRP, as a realistically played character wouldn't cause someone harm to avoid an arrest. I.E you cannot overdose them on inaprovaline to cause them to fall asleep. 12/03/2021 Can I OB LV beach before fog drops? Yes, as long as you know it's xenos on the other side, I.E can see structures etc. 17/03/2021 Can you railgun the Dropships after hijack and such? No, Railguns will be treated similarly to OB's, aka after hijack you can no longer use it. In short, is the OB Locked from being fired? If yes, you are not allowed to use the railgun. 23/04/2021 Can I use C4, alternative explosives or lethal weapons to break someone out of jail? No. 10/02/2021 Can I deploy as a Doctor? Yes you can. However, you must stay away from the front-lines and be in general safety. You shouldn't ignore your duties and turn into a combat medic. 18/05/2021 Question Answer Date Clarified Can I fire multiple OB shots at the same time? No, if exploited you will get you punished. 27/02/2021 Can I fire multiple OB shots at the same time? No, if exploited you will get you punished. 27/02/2021
