Introduction
This server was created as a means for us to make sure we keep up to date with the CORE game content. Lite mods, keep things challenging and still have time for an adult working gamer to play.
These rules are for all maps associated with the ARK Against Humanity Community.
These rules are for all maps associated with the ARK Against Humanity Community.
Once an admin makes a ruling, please respect their decision. We try to be fair and listen to all sides of an issue.
1. Interaction with other players and their bodies
-Do not move or loot other player's bodies - This includes dragging offline players into the water to drown or building around them with no way out. You may move a body who is logged out inside your base without permission to outside your walls.
2. In game chat and naming conventions
-Use your discretion, keep the conversations PG-13. There are children that play on this server.
Overly offensive names will be asked to be renamed. We hate having to censor people, but we will if needed.
*Please do not purposely harass or antagonize players. "DO NOT FEED THE TROLL"
*Please keep things civil and don't make disagreements personal.
*Political or religious conversations have no place in a video game, please seek another venue.
3. Player base and building rules
*Island: Carno island and Herb island are off-limits for building structures.
*Aberration: Do not block the paths leading to the surface areas.
*Aberration: Charge Stations must not be enclosed within a base. Players need these stations for multiple reasons and would not think to look inside bases if searching for one.
*Do not build on mountain areas/mountain tops where resource nodes spawn.
*Do not build in any caves or block the path to caves.
*Do not build around or block access to ruins/explorer notes. Players would not think to look inside bases if searching for one.
*Do not build bridges that would block access to an area. Do not block natural land bridges.
*Do not build anything within 40 foundations of another player or tribe.
*Do not claim land by placing random single structures. If you want a spot please develop it.
*Please put at least one unlocked door, ramp or gate to within your fenced area allowing trapped players a way out and allow access to beacon drops. If a beacon falls within your base, you will be expected to leave all gates unlocked for people to get inside to claim the drop on foot.
*If your base is on top of a survivor spawn point, you will be asked to leave a door unlocked so people can get out.
*Please allow reasonable access the areas around your base, do not completely block off a path. We're PVE, not PVP.
*Do not leave taming pens/torches/campfires/sleeping bags in the wild. When you're done with it please remove it. The offending structure will be destroyed without warning. PICK UP YOUR TRASH!
*Plant X turrets and automatic gun turrets should be inside your walls and not have a direct line of sight outside of your base. They are meant to kill dinos that wander into your base, not everything around it. This includes ocean bases. Turrets ruin wild tames.
**Any offending structures (including storage) will be destroyed without warning.**
*Do not leave dinosaurs outside of a fenced area unless you are with them. This can cause issues with people attempting to tame.
*Do not leave animals on mountains, islands, resource spawn points, within cave or locations where players are not permitted to build.
*Do not leave your animals in other players bases or fenced in areas without their permission.
**Admins reserve the right to kill all offending dinos.**
5. Beacons/Drops*First player who gets to a drop and/or is waiting for it gets it. It's not the first to actually get it open. If someone is waiting for a drop it's theirs. This includes all event drops. Hovering in the air on a mount counts as being there. Please share.
6. Tames
*Do not interfere with other players tames or dinos that they are attempting to kill. If another player is interacting with a dinosaur leave them alone unless they request assistance.
*Please be patient and understanding, this is often done accidentally or in error.
7. Aggro of wild dino's
*If you make a wild dinosaur aggro near another player, their base or their dinosaurs with the express intent of harming them or their buildings/dinos, you will be banned immediately. This is one of many reasons why wild dino pick-up has been turned off.
8. Eggs
*Do not take eggs from another players base without permission. Just ask in chat if they're on beforehand and if not you can't take them.
9. Rafts & Platform Saddles
*Please limit the number of rafts and platform saddles your tribes uses. There is a server limit of a 100 each. We have no current need to limit these to a number allowed, yet. Please use your discretion.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
Base/Dino decay
*Admins codes are used to help people with legitimate problems, not for those who simply messed up.Base/Dino decay
* If your base times out, it will be destroyed and dinos removed to make room for new people.
*If you are planning on taking an extended vacation and let the admins know we will do our best to keep it from being destroyed. No guarantees.
Protected Animals.
Please do not build on the large penguin glaciers or beaver spawn points.
Structures in PvE have a per-structure allowed-demolish time by default: Protected Animals.
Please do not build on the large penguin glaciers or beaver spawn points.
-4 days for thatch/small utility structures
-8 days for wood
-12 days for stone
-16 days for metal
-35 days for TEK
*Anything that violates these rules it will be removed without warning and you will not get it back. For major structure violations, we will attempt to contact you in-game, on Discord or here in the forum. This is the purpose of tribe registration. If we do not hear back from you within a reasonable amount of time all structure violations will simply be removed.
*This rule set is not complete. Please use common sense and be nice to others.
Thank you for taking your time to review these rule and regulations. We're all here for fun and to enjoy the community.
See you in-game!
