Server Rules

  Communication

  1. English is the official language of our community, both written and spoken. Other languages are allowed to be spoken within your own squad, but squad leaders need to be able to speak English in command chat.

  2. Friendly banter is acceptable, however, flaming and toxicity are not.

  3. Leave religion and politics out of the community, most of us are here to get away from real-life issues.

  4. No spamming - this includes posting the same post in multiple places or flooding in-game chat for example.

Respect For Others

  1. Racism, pedophilia, misogynistic, sexist, and ableist language are strictly prohibited.

  2. Harassment, abuse, and bullying will also not be tolerated.

  3. Any of this activity, including violent threats, hate speech, racial, religious, or sexual slurs may result in immediate banning.

​Interacting With Staff

​​

  1. Utilize !admin in-game to request assistance if you suspect someone is cheating/hacking during a live match.

  2. Do not argue with admins!

  3. Do not DM admins through Discord, please use the #support-ticket channel for assistance when reporting other players.

Impersonating Staff

​​

  1. Do not attempt to impersonate any member of OWI staff, DMH staff, or staff members from other communities.

​Squad Leading

​​

  1. SLs are required to have a working microphone. If you have a glitch and need to restart your game, ask a squad mate (via in-game chat) if they will take SL until you come back.  

  2. SLs must have a squad leader kit.

  3. SLs are allowed to lock squads but must have more than 1 person unless using heli or non-crewman vehicles.

  4. SLs are allowed to kick people from their squad for no reason. It is encouraged that you provide a simple explanation when possible.

  5. If something comes up and you have to leave the match, ask your squad if someone is willing to take SL. If they are not, you must disband the squad.

​Griefing or Trolling

 

      Examples of griefing or trolling include;

  1. Digging down friendly emplacements or radios for no reason other than to grief another squad or your teammates. FOBs are typically intended to be removed as gameplay indicates and at the discretion of command.

  3. Intentionally running over squadmates with vehicles.

​Vehicle Squads

​

  1. All vehicles that require a crewman kit MUST have a minimum of two players in the squad and in the vehicle.

  2. You cannot leave main with only one person in a crew-man-required vehicle.

  3. If you are in a crew-man-required vehicle and squad mate is killed in combat, you may return to main or the closest FOB to pick them up. If you are engaged in combat at that time, you can fight back, but you cannot seek out combat if you are forced to be in a solo situation.

​Squad Baiting

​​

  1. No squad baiting! Players who create a squad MUST have every intention to lead that squad.

  2. Do not create a squad (just to get a specific kit, etc.) if you do not plan on leading it.

Vehicle Claims

​Main Camping

  4. Do not place mines or hedgehogs on bridges (including before and after the bridge) that lead out of main.

  5. An “active objective” is one that has already appeared on the map for both teams.

​​

  3. You must not seek to retaliate and/or team kill someone who team killed you or a squad mate. This includes other forms of retaliation such as destroying vehicles, stealing vehicles, etc. which will be seen as asset wasting in addition to retaliation.
