Common Mistakes

Avoid these and you're already ahead of most new players.

1. Metagaming

Using information from streams, Discord or other characters that yours couldn't know. If your character wasn't there, they don't know.

2. Powergaming

Declaring results for other people ("I tie you up and you can't move"). Describe your action and let them respond.

3. RDM / VDM

Shooting or running people over without a roleplay reason or build-up. Violence should be the end of a story, not the start of one.

4. FailRP & no fear RP

Acting like a movie hero: ignoring injuries, laughing at guns, or driving off from a stop with no consequences.

5. Combat logging

Disconnecting mid-scene. It's treated as a serious offence on almost every server.

6. Ignoring the rules because "it's a gang"

Being a criminal character doesn't exempt you from server rules. If anything, criminal factions are watched more closely.

7. Hogging the story

If every scene revolves around you, others stop wanting to play with you. Share the spotlight.

8. Taking IC beef OOC

Messaging, insulting or harassing players outside the game because of what happened in character. A fast way to get banned.

Quick check: Before any scene, ask yourself “Would this be fun for the other person?” If the answer is no, change your approach.
