Teaming Guidelines:

No teaming with players not on your designated team. Exception: Class-D and Scientists can team unless intentionally extending the round. Class-D can team with SCPs with the goal of becoming an SCP (SCP 049-02). Class-D/Chaos can team with SCPs in the face of a greater threat (MTF / Scientists). Teaming is not allowed after Autonuke has been activated.

No Religion Talk:

Discussions about religion are not allowed. Keep conversations focused on the game and avoid religious topics.

Common Sense Rules:

The Administration Team reserves the right to address any behavior not directly covered in these rules if it violates common sense and good etiquette. Members may be punished for actions that go against common decency, even if not explicitly mentioned in the rules.

English-Only Communication:

The language spoken on the server is English. Speaking other languages may result in a warning or harsher consequences after continued use.

Age Restriction:

Players must be at least 13 years old to play on the server. The server believes the game is not suitable for those younger than 13.

Time-Specific Guidelines:

After Autonuke has gone off, teaming is no longer allowed.

As a rule of thumb, rules may be more relaxed after 12 AM (CET +1hr), but common sense should prevail. Players are expected to consider the enjoyment of others.

MIC / Chat Ettiquette

No Mic Spam, Music, or Soundboard Spam:

Spamming the microphone, playing music, or using soundboards excessively in global chat is prohibited. This includes spectator, intercom, and radio communication. Mic spamming is allowed in proximity chat but not as an SCP to avoid disrupting other SCPs.

Consequences for Violation:

Mic/Chat violations may result in verbal warnings, written warnings, temporary mute, or other appropriate consequences. Persistent violations, especially involving earrape, may lead to more severe actions, including temporary or permanent bans.

No Arguments in Spectator Chat:

Arguments in spectator chat are not allowed. Consequences for violation: Verbal warning, written warning, temporary mute, ban.

Consequences for Violation:

The progression of consequences for arguments in spectator chat is as follows: verbal warning, written warning, temporary mute, and then a ban for continued violations.
