How Do I get into Skyrat?

Welcome to Skyrat!

• One thing you may quickly notice is that we have a thick packet of policies and rules. Do not be intimidated! Much of the policies in place are there to help staff rule more consistently!

• We do not expect new players to know every rule right away. New players are given significantly more leeway to adapt and improve as long as they cooperate with staff in good faith.

To get off on the right foot in both the application process and our server, please follow the following list:

• Carefully read our Community Rules here [Required]: https://discord.com/channels/596783386295795713/730857839374893123/730857971537674281
• Quickly review over our Server Rules here [Recommended]:: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pHO-LteTUxH6GdSxuhaMJDQrTIWUa-Wj8r_lwBzWmIw/edit?usp=sharing - The idea is to get a basic overview of what is and what is not allowed.
• Lightly read through our Guiding Principles here [Required]: https://skyrat13.tk/wiki/index.php/Guiding_Principles

ERP Policy

Note: Command Staff and their ERP partners do not have protection against warranted interruptions. Only the "do not be a dick" and OOC consent rule applies for them.

1. Do not perform antag activities in dorms. See Metagaming Rule AKA Server Rule #5. Separately, do not bomb dorms.
2. Before interrupting a private ERP session, always LOOC beforehand. Do not bomb your targets who are ERPing, rather confront them and create an interesting story.
3. Public ERP is not protected to the extent private ERPs are, especially if they are not done through subtle. If you are looking to get involved, roleplay appropriately. Do not be a dick. It is recommended but not required that you LOOC beforehand.
4. Do not interrupt people in a private place without gaining 100% OOC consent, unless there is a STRONG IC reason like having a target. ERP Policy #0, #1, and #2 still applies.
5. ASK in LOOC or on discord (preferably LOOC) before ERPing, unless their preference states 'Yes'. Also, if the person doesn’t respond to STOP in LOOC, AHELP it. Don't take matters into your hands.
6. SSD players should not be touched as stated by Server Rule #1, Subsection #7.
7. If you ever feel uncomfortable with the scene, say it clearly in LOOC. Communicate clearly with your partner to avoid misunderstandings. But, Don’t go out of your way to bother people who are ERPing. Let people have their fun.
8. Work with your partner ICly and OOCly to make your RP/ERP smooth and enjoyable for everyone.
9. As a head, you should prioritize your job. Keep your sensors and headset on. Don’t neglect your job to ERP if you are needed on the job. You can always join as assistant and ERP the whole shift with no one bothering you.
10. Roleplay in good faith, outing the perpetrator in an IC non-con scene without OOC consent makes drama that is disruptive to the whole server, rather than good story.
