Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose Paranoid

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.


  • 3 Players MAX: in any base, clan, or roaming group.

  • 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.

When is wipe?!

Wipes times are Server Specific!

Click here to see a dynamic channel with upcoming wipes

If it's the forced/developer wipe this will be at 1900GMT/1400EST on the first Thursday of the month.

PLEASE NOTE WE DO NOT DEFER FROM OUR WIPE CYCLE

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.

Server Rules

Our server rules are enforced by our community administration team. You can find an exhaustive list of our rules on our Discord. These rules are the players responsibility to understand and follow. Our rules are always subject to change at managements discretion and may be changed without notice. We kindly request all players to ensure they regularly check server rules and if they're unsure about server rules, to contact our staff members by means of the Support Bot in our Discord Server with any questions.

Trio - No more than 3 players in any base or raiding/roaming group. Duo - No more than 2 players in any base or raiding/roaming group. Solo - EVERYONE is your enemy. There are no excuses.

Group Limit Rules

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.

You can rotate out members ONLY IF one of your members is offline. Raiding/Roaming with anyone who is not part of your clan is NOT allowed.

  • – Kick them from your Clan/Team.
  • – Remove their sleeping bags.
  • – Clear TC and Turrent Auth.

EVERYONE BUT YOUR TEAM IS YOUR ENEMY. 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 of time than a player who is outright banned for teaming

Do admins play?

We 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.

Terms and Conditions

By purchasing one of our products, you agree and accept that you have read and understood our terms of service. If you have purchased any of the following: VIP, VIP+, MVP. You will receive 50% of the total shown on the store in each of your two uses of the /kit command of which will reset every wipe. Kits are per server - we will move your kits between servers once per 30 days. We delay access to some kits after the server has wiped to help with server balancing. We will not offer any refunds after you have claimed your kits, once these items are in the economy of the server they cannot be reclaimed. Shop points will wipe once a month on the developer forced wipe. This is always on the first Thursday of the month; please keep this in mind when purchasing points. Please be careful where you spawn your kits, they are split in two to lessen the blow if you lose them. However, we will not replace anything lost in-game due to death caused by any means, nor will we replace due to being raided. We block certain kits and items for specific amounts of time to balance the server between paying players and non-paying players. We reserve the right to ban you without refund from the server for breaking server rules, having a previously EAC or Developer banned account with a ban less than 60 days old, defamatory, abusive, hateful, threatening, spam or spam-like, likely to offend, contains adult or objectionable content, contains personal information of others, risks copyright infringement, encourages unlawful activity or otherwise violates any laws. Bans are subject to the full discretion of the server admins and rules can be changed at any time. Refund requests due to issues concerning lag, game glitches, delayed delivery, or any other issues are subject to the discretion of the Paranoid team. All purchases are usually delivered within 10 minutes. However, this can be delayed in rare circumstances for up to 48 hours. We reserve the right to alter, update, or remove perks, privileges, permissions, services or products at any time. All products and services offered by Paranoid are timed unless otherwise specified. These terms may be changed at any time without notice. All official communication must be done through our Discord Support Bot or through our Support E-Mail Address. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use this service.

Why is my kit only giving half?

Donation kits are split in half on redemption to prevent total loss in the event of an unexpected death at the hands of another player. They are separated by a 900-second timer, which makes claiming them both very simple.
