What is involved in Whitelisting? What benefits does it give? Is it required?

Whitelisting is the act of reviewing our rules as a discussion with a Staff member to make sure you properly understand them. It is not a test, written application, or quiz. Whitelisted Loners are able to spawn north of the Military Checkpoint just below Rookie for an easier time getting back into the game. We are a Whitelist optional server, meaning you do not need to be Whitelisted to play. You must also be Whitelisted if you wish to join a faction.

I asked questions in General chat but is everyone telling me to 'Find out IC'?

As a hardcore roleplay server the only information your character starts with is a basic surface-level understanding of where they are. We provide some minimal guidance in this channel on specific items. Any information beyond that are things you must learn through playing the server, finding out information in character.

I was RDM'd or think someone broke a rule in front of me. What should I do?

You should file a ticket for the rulebreak first and foremost. If compensation is required that can be handled as part of that ticket provided you have adequate evidence (video clip). You should never break a rule in response to a rulebreak and you should never break character to call someone out in-game for doing so.

I'm dying and I have a weird icon showing up and I don't know what it means!

In addition to our radiation system we have a full medical system complete with many different statuses and effects. We share some of them in this channel in guide images below, but anything beyond that must be learned In Character.

How do I get a door / more storage? Why can't I store money?

We do not do basebuilding on our server and as such do not allow players to place doors or acquire more storage. Loners can use the virtual chests located in Rookie, Rostok, and Forester, Factions can use their in-base storage as well. If you are in a Faction and a door or locker has disappeared please file a ticket so Staff can assist you. Money is meant to be stored in your bank (accessible by the cash register or blue locker near vendors) rather than in your storage chest. This helps us gauge the health of our economy and better track movement of funds across the server.

Is there a map I can look at?

The only map you may use for IC information / decisions is the one on the PDA.

How Does Faction Recruitment Work?

Factions can recruit two ways, Meta and In Character. Meta recruitment is done through applications posted by the faction to give them a core 8 members. A Meta recruit is always a new character, you cannot use your current one. In Character recruitment is done through doing work and gaining the trust of a faction, usually through tasks and RP. Factions will offer you a chance to be recruited if they feel you have done enough work and are a good fit.
