Lying in narrative commands is prohibited - they must reflect what the character is actually doing.

Writing narration in an offensive or mocking way, or to troll other players, is prohibited.

Using emojis while roleplaying with narrative commands is prohibited.

The OOC chat is only for reporting problems that block the flow of gameplay. Venting frustration, excessive swearing and insulting other players are prohibited. Spamming “xD” in the OOC chat will be treated as abuse of the OOC chat.

Any form of toxicity toward other players is prohibited, whether in game or outside it, on any communication platform.

Animations that affect other players (violence, searches, interactions requiring consent) or that don't accurately show the situation must be supplemented with a clear and appropriate narrative command.

The OOC chat is the only way to let other players know about an emergency, a crash, a bug or the need to step away from the computer.

Every player must have a working microphone that doesn't pick up interference, static, loud sounds or other unwanted noise that disrupts gameplay.

Every player must fix their microphone quickly if a problem with it comes up during gameplay.

Immersive elements of the game, including your character's emotions and behavior, must be conveyed by voice. If a player can't act out an emotion by voice, they should add a description using the narrative commands.

Using meta phrases is completely prohibited.

Using binds that don't fit the situation and immersion is prohibited. They must not be mocking or sound unrealistic.

Using scenes or sound effects from OOC movies or videos is prohibited.

Roleplaying secret “recording” of conversations on the server is only possible if you have a “voice recorder” item in your inventory. Roleplaying unusual hiding places for the recorder, such as implanted in an earring, the body or a trouser button, is prohibited. Recordings may only be used as MP3 files with a slightly distorted voice. Any other attempts at recording will be treated as Metagaming and FailRP.

Playing Polish music or any sounds or memes related to Polish culture is prohibited.

Playing immersive sounds that fit the situation is allowed, for example cleaning windows or birds singing in the park.

Please don't use words and phrases that openly refer to Polish culture, such as “cwel”, “konfident”, “60-tka” or “wódki razem nie piliśmy”.

Using phrases like “free getaway”, “no heli for 3” and other demands of this kind, especially during robberies, heists and other hostile situations, which openly point to low-level RP and meta phrases, will result in severe penalties.

On the server you must drive vehicles immersively, taking their characteristics into account and adjusting your driving to the type of surface (asphalt, gravel, sand, mud, snow). On roads marked on the map, players may use any vehicle in accordance with the server rules, while driving on unmarked terrain (e.g. wild, difficult areas) is only allowed for vehicles suited to such conditions:

Using other vehicles off-road breaks the rules. Vehicles on unsuitable surfaces must move slowly and carefully and avoid leaving the designated routes - violations may be considered Fail Driving. Driving that isn't roleplayed correctly should end in an accident or vehicle breakdown; otherwise it may lead to consequences. Abandoning company vehicles and using them for private purposes unrelated to the job is also prohibited.

Assume that a CCTV system operates throughout the city.

Cameras are everywhere in public places, including financial institutions, police stations, medical centers and clinics, government buildings, the state prison, banks, gas stations, shops and players' business premises.

You must take the city's immersion into account. The streets carry heavy vehicle traffic and the sidewalks are constantly busy with pedestrians.

Every aggressive action must be carefully thought through and suited to the nature of the place where it happens.

Initiating unrealistic actions that aren't consistent with roleplay reality is prohibited.

Any aggressive action you start may have serious IC consequences.

Players may use recordings (OOC clips) from cameras located in public spaces as evidence against other players. For this to be possible, you must roleplay during the action that the cameras are on and recording the situation. If this isn't roleplayed, the evidence won't be accepted IC and the situation will be considered Metagaming.

Recognizing a vehicle, a player's face or other distinctive features is possible as long as the object is clearly visible and realistically portrayed.

A masked player can only be recognized if they made no attempt to disguise their voice in any way.

Starting aggressive actions in public spaces is not prohibited, but some of them require prior approval from the administration.

Players must take security cameras and witnesses into account when planning their actions, keeping realism in mind.

The server uses a “Stop&Go” rule, which lets you treat a red light as a Stop sign. You must bring the vehicle to a complete stop and take extra care. A driver may also wait at the red light until it changes, if they see fit. Keep in mind that you use the Stop & Go rule at your own risk. If you cause a collision or accident by misjudging the situation, the LEA sector will treat it as a failure to exercise due care and to obey the traffic lights, which may result in IC consequences.

The server's story takes place in modern times: the in-game year is 2026.

The map is set in the state of San Andreas, in Los Santos County, in the city of Los Santos in the United States of America. Areas outside LS (e.g. Sandy Shores, Paleto Bay) are in Blaine County. In the lore, the areas of the Roxwood add-on map will remain part of the state of San Andreas in Blaine County.

Although the whole map is surrounded by water, in the story we assume that the counties can also be reached by land, for example by car or train.

The server has its own law, written for the project by the legal section supervisors. California state law, federal law and the Constitution of the United States of America do not apply on the server.

PowerGaming means forcing roleplay actions on other players without giving them a chance to react. It applies both to interactions between characters and with the environment (nature, game mechanics). It consists of describing not only your own actions but also imposing their outcome on other players or the environment.

Every player has the full right to decide whether they want to roleplay amnesia.

Forcing amnesia on another player is prohibited. Any imposing of amnesia on another person will be punished severely and treated as Powergaming and Metagaming.

Lack of value for life means acting contrary to how a person would realistically behave when their health or life is in danger. Every character should show a natural survival instinct.

A character's clothing should logically suit the activity, the place, the weather and the nature of the situation being played out. A player must make sure to wear an immersive outfit while working, doing sports, hunting, panning for gold and other activities that call for proper preparation.

Within a faction's structure, the InTouch.gg server administration is treated like any other player.

Any sign of toxicity will result in immediate removal from the faction by its management. It may also be grounds for administrative action by the server administration.

By joining a faction, the player accepts that the administration may delete their character in the following situations:

• • Leaving the faction without informing the leader first.
  • Not returning, or deliberately obstructing the return of, assigned equipment and uniforms.
  • Playing a corrupt character without prior approval from the administration and the faction's management.

Kidnapping and robbing members of public factions while they're on duty, as well as faction vehicles, without a justified reason is prohibited.

Actions against public officers must be motivated by a specific IC situation and may not be random or groundless. The exception is when, during a shootout, as a last resort to save their own life, an attacker takes an officer's weapon or magazines.

A character who doesn't live within the law and hates the police cannot apply to join the uniformed services.

A character working for SAMS, LSPD, SADCR (Department of Corrections) or the State Capitol cannot switch employment between the units listed above. The one exception is a transfer from LSPD to SADCR and vice versa.

For immersion, a player in a faction cannot hold a second job/faction at the same time. The only jobs they may do are the scripted, legal ones.

Playing a corrupt character is only allowed with the consent of the management and the faction supervisor, after first presenting a general idea for the storyline. You must present the story concept without going into detail. Corruption means situations where the player gains private benefits rather than ones related to their duty.

Having a character in a faction rules out membership in Organized Crime Groups (ZGP) on your other characters. However, individual criminal activity as an unaffiliated criminal, without formal membership in any group, is allowed.

LSPD (Los Santos Police Department) - a uniformed and armed force dedicated to protecting human life and maintaining public safety, with Divisions and Subdivisions designated by area and purpose of operation.

Provoking law enforcement without a good reason is prohibited. Frequently getting into shootouts with the police without an in-story basis will be treated as a lack of value for life. In extreme cases, a faction player may open a ticket requesting an FCK of a player who plays recklessly, without valuing their character's life.

Setting up ambushes in a non-immersive way is prohibited (clipping into textures with an animation, camping on a roof with a steep slope).

SAMS (San Andreas Medical Services) - a uniformed, integrated rescue, medical and hospital service that provides qualified medical aid at the scene, runs HEMS transport and provides civilian healthcare across the state of San Andreas. It operates on an EMS + HEMS + Civilian Hospital system, inspired by the procedures of LAFD, NHS HEMS and LAC+USC.

SADCR (San Andreas Department of Corrections) - a uniformed, armed service responsible for the custody of temporarily detained citizens, convicted citizens and inmates of state prisons. They supervise court proceedings and prisoner transport across the whole state, and carry out the State Capitol's decisions on community service and parole.

Attacking or breaking out prisoners while they're doing community service outside the prison is prohibited. To carry out such an action, you must first get the administration's consent by presenting a real, justified in-story basis for it.

For immersion, all doors on prison grounds are covered by the Access Control System; even if no scripted Door Lock is set up, treat it as if there were one. Because of the huge number of doors and objects in the prison, not all of them could be scripted.

State Capitol - a faction focused on portraying the work of key state institutions, from the Governor's office (IRS, HHS, DMV) through the State Bar to the Supreme Court and the Office of the Attorney General. This faction is where administration, law and the justice system come together as one, keeping the whole state apparatus of San Andreas running.

Playing corrupt characters without the consent of the faction supervisor and the administration is prohibited.

BCSO (Blaine County Sheriff Office) - a uniformed, armed service responsible for protecting human life and maintaining public safety, organized into Divisions and Subdivisions according to area and scope of operations.

LSCoFD (Los Santos County Fire Department) - a uniformed, integrated rescue, medical and firefighting service that provides qualified medical aid at the scene and runs civilian healthcare and emergency services across the state of San Andreas.

These rules are an internal publication. They apply to all players with an official or unofficial criminal organization, as well as every player taking part in the life of the criminal underworld.

Not knowing the rules does not exempt you from following them.

Using any software or modification widely considered cheating is strictly prohibited on the server. (Yes, “sports” citizen mods get you banned too.)

No safe zones (no-greenzone): the game world is treated as fully immersive. Artificial concepts such as a “greenzone” do not exist. The response of the authorities and of witnesses follows solely from the natural logic of the surroundings (city CCTV, the number of civilians around, police stations).

Management center: formal communication, applications (FCK, kidnappings), incident reports and questions to the supervisors go exclusively through the dedicated tickets on the main Discord.

The organization's Leader bears full responsibility (IC and OOC) for the actions of all members of their group. The Leader is expected to have flawless knowledge of the realities of the organization being played and to look after the roleplay education of their members.

A change of Leader requires prior approval and verification by the sector supervisors. Losing the Leader's character (story death/life sentence) prevents them from taking command of the same structure on a new character. A lack of active participation by the Leader in the organization's life (without an appointed and approved deputy) results in the group being disbanded.

Running two characters in different criminal organizations at the same time is prohibited.

Combining play in factions with play in the criminal sector is prohibited, unless the supervisors of both sectors agree.

People who have been expelled from a criminal organization, have declared they are quitting or are inactive are strictly forbidden from passing any information about their former group or other criminal organizations to law enforcement. Officers are strictly forbidden from extorting, obtaining or using in game any information obtained from people who are no longer active members of criminal structures.

Protection of new organizations: Every organization in its trial period is entitled to a 14-day protection period, so it can build a story background for its roleplay. Other groups initiating aggressive actions against new organizations without any story explanation will be severely punished. At the same time, a group in its trial period that provokes a conflict itself loses its protection.

The sector supervisors reserve the right to close an organization in its trial period in the case of unrealistic gameplay, inappropriate character creation, failure to follow previous agreements, a flood of complaints or other circumstances that negatively affect the group's overall functioning.

Organized groups not accepted by the sector supervisors should not initiate aggressive actions against official organizations or provoke their members into conflict without reason. Actions of this kind, in particular deliberately “picking fights” with official groups, may make it easier to get approval for an FCK.

Every new member of an organization must be added by the Leader to the dedicated crime ticket before they start playing in the organization. People not listed in the ticket may not take part in hostile actions against another organization. Breaking this rule may result in a temporary ban or even a warn for the whole organization.

The game is set in Los Santos in the state of San Andreas. All criminal groups must fit into the setting of an American metropolis, keeping in mind the group's character, the vocabulary, slang and the characters' clothing.

"Watering down" criminal groups is prohibited. Characters' actions must be logical and consistent with the group's profile (e.g. a racist group doesn't build friendly relations with an ethnic group it hates, and a high-ranking mafia group doesn't deal on the street).

Excessive promotion of extreme ideologies on the server is prohibited.

Playing in the underworld cannot be driven purely by the wish for financial gain (so-called grinding). Stats and wealth are an addition to creating storylines.

Criminal actions (transporting illegal goods, extortion, robberies) must be carried out with vehicles that make sense for the story. Using luxury cars and supercars for illegal activity is prohibited.

The sector supervisors reserve the right to check a character's appearance and assets. A “troll” look/outfit or luxury goods without an in-story explanation may result in their confiscation or the permanent deletion of the character.

All firefights must be dynamic, short and kept to the necessary minimum. Prolonged exchanges of fire in densely populated areas are treated as a blatant disregard for realism.

Immediately after an aggressive action in a public place (especially outside Davis), the participants must leave the area of the fight without delay. Dragging the action out to “finish off” every player is prohibited.

Any kind of “camping” on rooftops before a hostile action starts is prohibited. Getting onto a roof is only allowed dynamically during an ongoing firefight.

A person who was in the BW state during a fight is completely banned from returning to the scene until that RP storyline is fully closed. Passing on any information during a hostile action while in the BW state is strictly prohibited.

A player who was put into BW by injuries from a lethal weapon must not take part in offensive actions for 1 OOC hour.

After taking part in a hostile action, a player must stay active on the server for at least 30 minutes (leaving the game or going AFK is prohibited).

There's no time limit on aggressive actions, but starting several shootouts within a few hours or persistently abusing this rule is grounds for immediately closing the organization.

Drive-by shootings using more than two four-wheeled vehicles are prohibited. Motorcycles have a limit of 8 people per action.

Organizations may not team up for offensive actions. Joining forces is only allowed in a defense with strong in-story justification.

Aggressive actions are prohibited in the 30 minutes before a server restart and the 15 minutes after it. The exception is a provocation by the opposing side.

All offensive actions with firearms aimed at people on the premises of an actively operating civilian business require prior approval from the administration, obtained through a ticket on Discord.

For businesses owned by criminal groups, administration approval is not required. The limit of offensive actions against businesses owned by crime groups is at most one action per day for each group that the given group is in conflict with. The actions must prioritize people belonging to the criminal underworld. Bystander casualties must be avoided.

Hostile actions against players who are currently using a clothing store, barber shop, tattoo studio or another scripted activity that limits their freedom of movement are prohibited.

Shooting at law enforcement without sufficient and logical in-story justification is strictly prohibited. Opening fire on officers or a patrol car only because a member of your own organization, a friend or someone else connected to the group is being detained, especially for traffic offenses or other minor violations, may result in an FCK.

PK (Player Kill) means the death of a random character instead of the character played by an active player. This system is meant to be used during conflicts between criminal organizations. It consists of finishing off a player in BW, leading to a narrative death.

PK cannot be used in a personal conflict between specific characters. In such situations, use BW or FCK.

A player whose character received a PK cannot continue the action in which the PK took place, take part in retaliation or pass on information about the perpetrators, since in the story their character wasn't there.

From the LEA's point of view, a PK is treated as murder. Keep in mind that carrying out PKs repeatedly can make your character criminally liable for further murders, which can even lead to life imprisonment.

Only organizations that have a conflict with another criminal organization reported to and accepted by the sector supervisors may use the PK system.

Once a firefight is over, if the participants have been detained, subdued, put into BW or taken into custody by LSPD/EMS, breaking them out or restarting the fight is prohibited. Securing the scene, medical aid, searches, detention and transport remain part of the same action.

Searching a victim requires proper narration (/me and /do). Using generic phrases (/me searches /do sees everything?) is prohibited. Any bizarre search-narration binds, from the sole of the shoe to the underwear waistband, are also prohibited.

Forcing a robbery victim to withdraw cash from an ATM, make phone transfers or hand over their credit/debit cards is prohibited. You may only rob goods the person physically has on them. In addition, if the person being robbed shows no "interest in the action" and drags it out on purpose, finish the action and then report it in a ticket with evidence.

Robbing people during and after shootouts (looting) is prohibited! The exceptions are:

• running out of ammo (taking magazines only),
• a successful defense on your own territory (and its IMMEDIATE surroundings),
• picking up an item dropped by a script.

Chain-robbing is prohibited (e.g. robbing one store after another, driving around the city to pick off random passers-by, kidnapping civilians purely for OOC gain).

Calling players who provide services (e.g. taxi drivers, couriers, mechanics) in order to rob them is prohibited.

A group carrying out a planned robbery of a business may not exceed 4 participants. A heist requires reporting your intent in a ticket beforehand.

The corner is where many beginner criminals start out. It's not a place for a business owner, the leader of an organized crime group or the president of a motorcycle club.

Abusing the corner script, hiding in textures, dealing right next to a vehicle, selling while wearing a motorcycle helmet or setting up barricades is prohibited and will be severely punished.

Robbing people who are actively working a corner is only allowed if the player has an organization panel themselves and is a member of a criminal group. Civilians cannot rob anyone on a corner.

Systematically patrolling the city (“doing corner runs”) to look for lone dealers without an in-story basis is prohibited.

Kidnapping a character requires a serious and logical IC justification. A war, conflict or bad blood between organizations alone is not a sufficient reason. Every kidnapping for financial gain or with the intent to maim must be reported in a ticket. We also remind you that we don't support kidnappings meant to end a war, and no consent will be given for them.

A brief kidnapping (up to 1h) to intimidate or humiliate a character, with no material gain, does not require prior consent.

Kidnapping a player in the BW state is not allowed (exception: the victim showed no value for life and aimed a weapon before being put into BW).

A leader has the right to FCK a member of their own organization without submitting an application. After the FCK, the recording and the reason must be posted in a ticket on Discord immediately after the execution. Otherwise, we reserve the right to reverse the action.

If physically carrying out an FCK on a character isn't possible, in particular because the player has quit, the Leader has the right to ask the sector supervisors to remove that character.

An FCK from outside the organization can only be carried out by a character with at least 20 hours of playtime who is active. The application requires the sector supervisors' consent.

If the person carrying out an FCK is put into BW by their victim during the action, they also receive an FCK.

After a character is killed (FCK), returning to the same organization is possible after 14 days. The exception is when the FCK took place within the organization.

Torture, permanent mutilation, rape and the like require OOC consent from both sides (unless the supervisors make an exception due to a blatant lack of value for life).

Protection money: Newly established businesses are protected for 14 days. Protection money is at most $2500/week from a business and $1000/week from a person.

All serious crimes (murders, kidnappings, shootings, arsons) must be reported in the #forum-przestępstw channel on the main Discord within 24 hours of happening. Failing to do so will result in a temporary ban.

When committing serious crimes, players are required to leave clues (traces) behind in the report, so investigators can follow up on the storyline.

Declaring an official war requires the leaders to present evidence (clips, screenshots) on Discord within 12 hours of the action or planned action. Moving the conflict onto the OOC level (mass tickets) will result in consequences for the organization.

Once an official war has started, every organization involved must keep the #war-log channel up to date with the actions carried out against the opposing organization as part of the conflict.

We recommend having a recording (POV) of every hostile action. In disputes, a missing recording may lead to a decision in favor of the side that has video footage.

The rules can't foresee every possible situation that comes up during gameplay. In situations not directly described in the rules, common sense, a proper level of roleplay and acting in line with the nature of the game world apply.

The administration and the crime sector supervisors reserve the right to assess individually any situations not clearly described in the rules.

Interpreting the rules may take into account the context of the whole situation, the parties' earlier gameplay and material documenting how the events unfolded.

In the case of blatant or repeated rule violations, the administration may impose consequences on a single player, a character or an entire organization.
