Cartel Class Rules & Guidelines

1. Cartel Members are required by default to coordinate with other members of the same mafia, if they don't then it is considered fail role-play.
2. The two Cartel Classes are by default at war, and are therefore KoS for each other.
3. Mafia members may not KoS the opposite organization in the middle of the streets, they may only KoS the opposing members within private alley ways and tunnels, (this does not include the large tunnels conjoining parts of the town) and inside of homes that are either unowned or owned, as long as it is private.
4. Both cartel Classes may raid in groups of two or more, they may not raid solo.
5. If you kill a member of your own cartel, it is considered FailRP and RDM.

New Life Rule
If this is the first role play server you have ever joined, then let's update you with something called the New Life Rule, or NLR for short.

The New Life Rule states that once you die, you forget everything that happened to you. This means that, after you die, you don't immediately go back to the place you died.

In our server after you die, you go into a 'ghost mode' for 60 seconds. After you are out of your ghost mode, you must stay away from the place you died previously for an additional 4 minutes (5 minutes including the ghost time).

If you died while being raided, you are free to go on back after your NLR time without guns drawn. (Because you cannot remember that you were raided, or who raided you, so you can't be prepared).

Civil Protection has some exclusions. NLR still applies to them when it comes every situation except for a raid on the Police Department (since it is their home). If Civil Protection die during a raid they are allowed to go back to the PD without guns drawn directly after the ghost time of 60 seconds.

Building Rules

1. Do not abuse the fading door.
2. Keypads must be working, have a hold length of 10 seconds, and be placed near the door they open.
3. At only one entrance of your base may you have 2 fading doors. The rest of the entrances may only have one fading door.
4. A player must be able to enter and exit your building without having to destroy any props.
5. Do not build anything that gives you a ridiculous advantage over people breaking into your base. See examples below.
6. Do not build inside unowned buildings or ones that you do not own.
7. Do not build out on the streets or anywhere public. However the Hobo, Disk Jockey and Radio DJ classes are an exception. They can build on the sidewalks and park areas.
8. Do not block off large parts of the map, or any place where NCPs or Dumpsters spawn (Rule 16 to clarify about Dumpsters)
9. While building, put up a sign that states "BUILDING" to let others know not to mess with you. Once you are finished building, remove the sign. While building, you should not have any printers or other entities. If you do, those entities can be removed.
10. In regards to rule 9, do not interfere with people that have a "BUILDING" sign.
11. No Megabasing. See examples below.
12. No concentration camps, Nazi regalia, or inappropriate structures.
13. No GIFs or offensive material on text signs and keep your signs in role-play (no random signs).
14. Do not build on rooftops unless they are connected to a staircase. Do not store entities on these roofs. (Also do not raid from them)
15. RPG and SG proof bases are allowed.
16. If hobos build a base around the dumpster, there must be adequate space directly surrounding the dumpster, and you cannot hinder or block off the flow of items flying from the dumpster. Hobos can section off areas that include a dumpster inside, but may not section off the dumpster for themselves inside of their home. Also, any hobo fort that includes a dumpster inside must have button access, or be no-collided. Hobos who rule the area may kick problematic people out but may not hog a dumpster to just themselves.
