Short version: play fair, build freely, don't be cruel to newer players. Long version below.
Aimbots, ESP, macros, duping, or exploiting known bugs result in an immediate permanent ban. No warnings, no appeals for confirmed cases.
Raid anyone, anytime. Spawn camping and repeatedly targeting the same new player after they've lost everything is not.
No honeycombing over public monuments or roads. Respect claimed land signs. Floating structures must stay reachable without exploits.
Hate speech, harassment, and slurs get you muted or banned the same as cheating does. Trash talk during a raid is fine; harassment isn't.
Alt accounts used to bypass bans, farm extra loot, or scout for your main are bannable. Family sharing a server is fine — say so in Discord.
Run solo, duo, or a full clan — whatever you want. Just don't coordinate multiple separate "teams" to get around any future team-limit plugin.
Auto turrets, traps, and shotgun traps are all fair game exactly as Rust ships them. No modded damage values, no plugin-granted extra ammo.
Rust doesn't pause when you log off, and neither do raids. Build defensively and use a tool cupboard \u2014 it's on you to prep for offline hours.
Clip or screenshot what happened. Names, timestamps, and location help a ton.
Head to #tickets in Discord and give us the short version plus your evidence.
An admin reviews and replies in the ticket, usually within a day. No public callouts needed.

Admin decisions are final but not silent — appeal or ask questions in the Discord's #tickets channel.
No. Anything in the store is cosmetic or convenience only — never a raiding, loot, or PvP advantage.
Confirmed cheating bans are final. Everything else can be appealed once in the Discord's #tickets channel — be honest, it helps.
Rarely, and never mid-wipe without a heads-up in Discord. This page is always the current version.
Standard chat mutes run their normal duration and can't be purchased out early. It doesn't apply to bans or mutes tied to a permanent conduct ban.
