Rules of Engagement & Command Code

I. Rules of Engagement - For All Players

Conduct in Battle

• 1
  Hold the Line - No Steamrolling

  Matches are meant to be fair and competitive. When asked to switch sides for balance, do so. VIPs are rewarded for helping stabilize the front.

• 2
  Respect Seeding Hours

  During seeding, fight only over the middle sector. No back caps, no last cap rushes. Seeding rules keep the fight alive.

• 3
  No Sabotage or Teamkilling

  Deliberate TKs, vehicle destruction, or trolling teammates will earn an immediate removal from the server.

• 4
  Play Your Role

  Follow orders from your squad lead and commander. Lone wolves cost victories.

• 5
  No Cheating or Exploiting

  Any use of cheats, macros, or map exploits = Dishonorable Discharge (permanent ban).

Conduct Off the Field

• 6
  Respect the Uniform

  No hate speech, racism, harassment, or toxic behavior. We're brothers-in-arms here.

• 7
  Radio Discipline

  Keep comms clear and mission-focused. Save politics, religion, and drama for another battlefield.

• 8
  Obey the Chain of Command

  Admins are acting Command Officers. If you disagree with an action, use the #report-a-player or #ban-appeals channels - not in-game chat.

• 9
  No Unauthorized Recruiting or Advertising

  Don't promote other clans or servers without clearance from Command.

• 10
  Represent the Tag with Honor

  Wearing the 504D tag means you carry our reputation. Fight hard. Lead by example.

II. Command Code - For Admins & Officers

This section is visible to all for transparency. Our Admins serve as Officers of the 504th - enforcing order and maintaining discipline on the field.

Conduct & Ethics

• 1
  Professional at All Times

  Treat every player with respect. Never argue, insult, or abuse authority.

• 2
  No Power Trips

  You are a leader, not a tyrant. Use calm judgment - not emotion.

• 3
  Warn Before You Fire

  Always issue a polite warning before punishment, unless it's an obvious, intentional offense.

• 4
  Document Every Action

  All kicks, bans, or warnings must be logged in #admin-log with: Player Name, Date, and Reason.

• 5
  No Favoritism

  504th members, VIPs, and allies are treated exactly the same as public players.

• 6
  Disputes Belong in HQ

  Handle issues in Discord, not the server chat. Never argue in public.

• 7
  Report Repeat Offenders

  Escalate problem players to Senior Command for review.

• 8
  Enforce Seeding Rules

  During seed hours, maintain balance and remind players of ROE #2.

• 9
  Stay Mission Focused

  Avoid distractions - keep matches running smooth, fair, and enjoyable for everyone.

• 10
  Chain of Command

  Major disciplinary actions (bans over 24 hours, VIP removal, etc.) must go through a Senior Admin or Command review.

III. Enforcement & Discipline Guide

Every action is reviewed - no admin operates without accountability.

IV. Appeals & Reports

If you believe you were kicked or banned unfairly, or if you wish to report misconduct:

• Use the #report-a-player or #ban-appeals channels in Discord.
• Provide time, date, and screenshots if possible.
• The case will be reviewed by the Admin Corps and final judgment issued by Command.
