Congratulations to the new officers of Orc Realm! Your one month appointment, and your help to the server is immensely appreciated. In less than a month we have grown exponentially, and still growing. With the growth comes challenges! One of this challenge is how to sustain our gaming community. We asked those that are on the blue team to be mindful of the overall needs of the community, and temper your influence. Darth and I take responsibilities for not putting up clear roles of what a cop/admin can and cannot do. We assumed that many of these roles are common sense, however, here's an attempt of that "emerging" (evolving) roles:
For Cops/Admins:
0. All officers (cop and admin) get to serve for 2 weeks or 1 month, and then others given a chance. Everything in OrcRealm is temporary (nothing is permanent!)
1. Keys given to you to the PD should be used only when you are on duty. When you switch to rebel, refrain from using these keys to gain access to the fortress.
2. It is okay for cops to fight back if attacked by rebels, or you may switch to rebel to DM with other rebels.
3. It is normal for cops to defend the PD and to kill any rebel that goes there. Similarly, it is normal for all rebels to attack and raid the PD--this is great gameplay event!
4. Per Smakosz comments: when cops are in duty, use only cop related items and powers.
5. When a prisoner escape, please do not kill them outside while they're cuffed. Of course, prisoners who escaped run the risk of being killed by other rebels.
6. When cuffed rebels continued to incur crime while serving sentence inside the jail, cops please do not kill them. However, if you are a rebel and continued to accumulate crime while in jail, you can be cuff again upon release.
7. When rebel crime is 1,500 or higher, cops may kick door.
8. Also, when your crime is 3k or higher, cops may break your locks. However, this may not be sustainable as cops will ultimately run out of money.
9. Cops may destroy contraband including drugs and money printers.
10. Please do not AFK as cop.
11. You are not to send players to AFK room.
For Rebels and all players:
1. Please no glitching of any type.
2. Money in wallet, money printer spawned, and cacti will be lost when you disconnect, or when server restarts.
3. We are an RP server and data is of utmost importance for all of us. We are doing our best to back up your data. However, when server crashed (or reset) some of your data may be lost. Feel free to contact me or other admins (Smakosz & Spriggs) and we will do our best to refund your lost items, money, etc. When asking an admin for refund, it is best to approximately combine the total amount of your items lost and the bank money you lost. Bits will verify from old backup database your claims. Sorry for all these annoyance and inconvenience. Ultimately, we will fix these issues.
4. Your data is stored with your SteamID as reference; therefore, if you use a new (different) account (new SteamID), data from another account cannot be transferred to this new one. Once again, player’s info is unique to one (and only one) specific SteamID, and it is not transferable to another SteamID.
5. You can only own one property at a time. Please do not buy multiple properties. Let's give an opportunity for other players to own their own.
6. Please do not use spectate, or similar behaviors.
7. Please do not recruit OrcRealm players to go to your server.
8. When purchasing monthly or weekly property, record the date of purchase in "Property Rental/Leases Records" as proof of purchase. Your entry on that thread will come handy when your door is accidentally repriced.
Admins:
1. Please do not spawn NPC vendors and bankers.
2. Bankers are for VIP only, but need to be coordinated with bits because of the numbering system.
3. Please do not generate money and items as this is critical to Orc Realm's economy.
4. Banning a player is a team's decision (all admins vote), so please coordinate with other admins.
5. You may temporarily freeze furnitures, but not save. This is consistent with the overarching theme of rental/transitory. With the freeze idea, props and furnishings will go away the next time the server restarts. For players, this is good because it gives them a fresh start to redecorate their rented property. Also, saving props and furnishings will lag the server.
We cannot thank you (rebels/cops/admins) enough for making these server fun and top rated. Darth and I will not be able to pull that off on our own--it's you who made OrcRealm dynamic, rich, and enjoyable!
Overall, we are proud of you, enjoy the server, and let's have fun!
