Introduction to Skyrat

Welcome to Skyrat!

Tidbits to Remember:

  • The application is essentially a test to see if you have taken the time to gain an understanding of some of our rules. Q4, Q6, and Q7 are essentially questions to test your knowledge. Please demonstrate a basic understanding in your answers in order to gain entry into the server.
  • We are not a "Furry TG" server. While we are a direct downstream of their excellent codebase, our server provides a different experience with a focus on roleplay, and we differ significantly in our goals.
  • 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! Unless you are acting in bad faith or are behaving maliciously or suspiciously, breaking what feels like an obscure rule will rarely ever result in punishment on the first offense. We prefer to take records and focus on long-term behavior when we can. Unless it's clear you are not a good fit and have no intent on actually adapting to the server, it's okay to make mistakes.
  • 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. Conversely, we will not hesitate to throw you out if you treat the game as a meme or if you treat other players and staff poorly.
  • Skyrat Main should be treated as a HRP-MRP server. You should aim to be "High Roleplay" and "Medium Roleplay" at the minimum.

If you don't know what this means, you will soon find out in Recommended Reading #3.

While we offer a mixed environment that doesn't take itself too seriously and allows room for amusing and funny roleplay, we do not tolerate players treating the game as a meme, especially if it comes at the expense of more serious roleplay. Be respectful of others.

Recommended Reading! [10 Minutes~]

To get off on the right foot in both the application process and our server, please follow the following list and read any document labeled as [Required]. A basic understanding of the required documents is required in order to gain entry into the server:

  1. Carefully read our Community Rules here [Required]: https://discord.com/channels/596783386295795713/730857839374893123/730857971537674281
  2. Quickly review over our Server Rules here [Recommended]: Skyrat 13 Ruleset and Temporary Measures - The idea is to get a basic overview of what is and what is not allowed. Most are just common sense.
  3. Lightly read through our General Player Policy & Standards [Required]: General Player Policy and Standards
  4. Read our ERP Courtesy Policy [Required]: Miscellaneous Roleplaying Policy
  5. Thoroughly read our Action-RP Lawset [Required]:
