Zergs suck - seriously. Nobody likes going on a server, facing a group of 10+, and getting owned. Our Solo, Duo, and Trio servers have restricted group limits.
Doing this levels the playing field for you and your teammates. No more getting decimated with unfair numbers.
Take, for example, our group limit rule on the Solo/Duo/Trio Servers.
It's not hard regarding group limits. No more than the specific group limit and players must be in a clan to play together.
IF a player has stopped playing for the wipe, you MUST kill the sleeper, kick them from your clan, remove their bag, and clear your TC/Turret Auth.
Being caught with four or more players, you will be either banned or given a final warning. If you receive a warning, you will receive a longer ban than someone who received the initial rest of the wipe ban.
We encourage community spirit on Paranoid, but, if you are breaking the rules by PVPing or Raiding as more than the intended group limit, you risk being banned.
Wipes times are Server Specific!
Click here and find which server your playing to see the wipe time!
If it's the forced/developer wipe this will be at Your Local Time on the first Thursday of the month.
This means if your server normally wipes on a Friday the server you're playing will incur another wipe after forcedwipe.
Utilise this time to get blueprints and prepare for the weekend wipe.
This gives us a 24-hour grace period to fix any issues with the update, plugins, exploits, anything that can and regularly does happen on forcewipe.
* Except for SEA servers
It's not hard regarding group limits. No more than the specific group limit and players must be in a clan to play together.
Raiding/Roaming with anyone who is not part of your clan is NOT allowed.
No more than 3 players in any base or raiding/roaming group.
No more than 2 players in any base or raiding/roaming group.
EVERYONE is your enemy. There are no excuses.
You can replace players if one of your team members is offline - if a player has stopped playing then you MUST do the following:
This also does not mean you can roam with an AFK player in your base (They still count as an online member of your team)
If you are caught with 4 or more players you will be either given a last warning or you will be banned
If you continue to break our rules even after warning kicks from our staff, you will be banned for a longer period than a player who is outright banned for teaming
EVERYONE BUT YOUR TEAM IS YOUR ENEMY
If you wish to give your base away if you are leaving for the wipe, you MUST do the following:
You cannot be in the base at the same time as the user you are giving it to.
.We encourage community spirit on Paranoid but if you want to host a community event such as a disco or an art gallery you need Admin or above permission to do so.
We do not however allow you to run hotels that exceed the group limit of the server you are on.
View Rules ChannelWe believe Admin being allowed to play servers they have power on is a conflict of interest.
Our admin cannot unvanish or even interact with anything in the world - they are spectators, here to monitor and nothing else.

We understand that losing valuable items during PVP can be quite disheartening for our players.

This approach lessens the blow to the user, as they won't lose the entire kit in a single instance of PVP.
Please note that there is a 900-second timer per use of the command, which means you can only use the command once every 15 minutes.
