    Don't start arguing in the chat or on Discord. Make a report and leave it, or take it to PMs.
    *If you aren't involved in a report, do not speak in the channel.*
    **6) Report poor conduct on the server with !report in #charlie**
    Don't argue in the chat or on Discord. File a report by typing !report in #charlie. This will create a private channel where you can discuss the report with the server administrators.

    **7) This is a CLEAN racing server.**

    **9) No offensive names or incomprehensible names**
    If you're using a racist, homophobic, etc. name you will be either asked to change it, or straight up banned.
    Please also use a name that consists of the Latin alphabet. Any special characters are likely to show up as weird boxes on the server, making it impossible to call you out.
    If your name is shorter than 3 or longer than 15 consecutive characters and/or doesn't have at least 3 latin alphabet letters in a row, you will be assigned a randomised nickname on the server.

    **11) Attempting to evade a ban will result in an instant permanent ban**
    Creating a secondary account or playing on another account in order to bypass a ban on the primary account is called "ban evasion", and it will be met with a permanent, irreversible ban from all Homecoming servers and Discord.
    This is your only warning.

    **12) No glitching**
    As Homecoming is in a constant state of development, you may encounter glitches of various types. Now this should go without saying, but you are not to exploit any glitches, regardless of how harmless they may seem. Depending on the case and severity of the exploit, the punishment for glitching can range anywhere between an instant bin to a permanent ban.

    *Just to clarify, racing mechanics such as brake-boosting, kerb-boosting, and MDSB are not considered glitches/bugs, regardless of how you feel about them :)*

    **13) Don't go AFK for extended periods of time**
    If you need to go AFK, consider leaving the server so that someone else waiting to join gets a chance to race as well.

    Skipping one race is generally fine, but don't be surprised if you find yourself kicked anyway. *All server kicks come with a 1-hour time out, so it's always better to duck out of your own accord than getting kicked.*


    **Anything not explicitly stated in these rules falls under the judgement of the staff, who will decide on the appropriate course of action on a case-by-case basis. When reporting incidents where rules were broken, please do your best to provide evidence in the form of screenshots or video, so that we are able to make a more informed decision.**

    P.S. Relating to rule 1, if someone Discord is harassing you in DMs and is creating alternate accounts to bypass getting blocked, etc. let us know. You might also want to consider reporting them to Discord. Instructions at https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000291932-How-to-Properly-Report-Issues-to-Trust-Safety

    For example, don't have a full-blown conversation in chat during a race or testing, don't start testing on the same track someone's already on without permission, etc.
    *In general, leave people alone.*

    **3.** No usage of 3rd party menus. The server has built-in menus for both car customisation and player customisation.
    **3) Don't use third-party menus**
    We have server-side menus for car spawning and customization.

    **4.** No intentionally dirty racing. This is a CLEAN racing server. If you accidentally hit someone or wreck them, wait for them to regain their position in the race. Accidents are ok, deliberately hitting others off is not.
    **4) Read channel topics to avoid going off-topic**
    Repeat offenders will be “Black-Flagged,” blocking you from posting in most channels.

    **5.** Racing here works on an honour system. If you are crashed into, call them out by typing `TheirNamehere wait`, it's clear and fast to type.
    If you are called out, wait. If you do not, **you** must be able to provide proof of why you weren't to blame.
    **Repeated false callouts will be punished.**
    **5) Don't tag staff or admins**
    We read the chats and will respond to things as necessary when we have the time.

    **6.** No usage of weapons in general and especially against other players. If you acquire a weapon for some reason, simply don't use it.
    **6) Use the #reports channel to report poor conduct on the server**
    Don't start arguing in the chat or on Discord. Make a report and leave it, or take it to PMs.

    **13.** Do not pester admins or staff while they are on the server. If they are there to race, then race with them. If they ask you to leave a certain area, leave that area. Pestering them hinders their ability to do whatever it is they are doing and will result in action being taken to remove you.
    *Just to clarify, racing mechanics such as brake-boosting, kerb-boosting, and MDSB are not considered glitches/bugs, regardless of how you feel about them :)*

    **14.** If the person hosting a race calls out a specific car for a race, use that car. Until we get a more robust way of locking multiple choices for car selection, this is how it will be done.

    **15.** If you are not apart of a report, do not respond in the #reports section.
