	:0.1. ~~'''Avoid using~~ netspeak in your messages in-character (IC)~~'''~~, except in contexts where it would make sense, such as PDA messages.		:0.1. You must not use netspeak in your messages in-character (IC), except in contexts where it would make sense, such as PDA messages.
	:0.2. ~~'''Avoid playing~~ as characters that ~~are from~~ real life~~, this almost always disrupts player's immersion and experience on the server~~.~~''' (E~~.g. You ~~are not allowed to~~ play as ~~Abraham Lincoln~~, the ~~US president, but you are allowed to play as Toriel from Undertale~~.)		:0.2. You must not play as characters that imitate real-life figures.
	:0.3. ~~'''~~Do not use out of character (OOC) information IC~~'''~~, ~~refrain from bringing information taken from Discord~~ and ~~L/OOC~~, ~~'''the same being for bringing IC information to OOC'''~~.		::0.2.1 You may play as characters that imitate personalities from games, but do note that referencing the lore or in-game-world of that game may constitute a violation 0.3.
	:0.4. ~~'''Avoid respawning~~ as the same character in the ~~same~~ round~~''' without~~ staff permission, as this ~~can cause immersion to be ruined~~.		:0.3. Do not use out of character (OOC) information IC, as this constitutes metagaming.
	:0.5. '''~~English is the main language of the server~~''', and ~~we do~~ not allow non-English languages to be ~~used on the server~~.		::0.3.1 This includes not discussing real-world constructs such as business organizations, politics, current global situations, etc.
	:0.6. ~~'''Cryoing~~ or ~~making~~ your character ~~DNR for the purpose of respawning as another character~~ to avoid IC punishments ~~isn't allowed'''; if~~ you ~~get in trouble IC~~, you must ~~roleplay it out in order to be fair to other players who have been roleplaying with and pursuing you~~.		::0.3.2 You may reference music or games, and may choose to treat them as old media (as SS13 is set far in the future, typically.)
	:0.7. ~~'''Do~~ not circumvent the 150 character minimum for flavortext~~'''~~, as this minimum was implemented to ensure players can showcase a baseline level of roleplay skills. Manners of circumvention include spamming random characters, using invisible characters, intentionally inputting random words, etc.		:0.4. You must not respawn as the same character if your character has entered the round (left the interlink).
			::0.4.1 You may receive staff permission to respawn if you have entered, but this is not a guarantee.
			::0.4.2 Cyborgs may respawn, but must roleplay their re-entering of the round; cyborgs must '''not''' respawn as the same cyborg if killed in any way prior to respawning.
			:0.5. SPLURT is an English-speaking server, and you are expected to speak English while playing here.
			::0.5.1 If a staff member believes that your level of English will not allow you to follow our rules, you may be asked to leave.
			::0.5.2 You may speak non-English languages both IC and OOC if you are in a private setting, such as dorms or infinidorms, but this should be kept between two people.
			:0.6. You must not cryo, ghost, or DNR your character in order to avoid In-Character punishments. If you have to leave at an incidental time, you must Adminhelp before doing so.
			:0.7. You must not circumvent the 150 character minimum for flavortext, as this minimum was implemented to ensure players can showcase a baseline level of roleplay skills. Manners of circumvention include spamming random characters, using invisible characters, intentionally inputting random words, etc.

			'''Fighting and mechanics should be proportional to the conflict, taking into account your character and the situation they are in'''.

	'''Your actions in character (IC) on the server, just like real life, have consequences from the rest of the players''', if you are being acting like a general nuisance, except people to treat you as such.

	'''If your characters behaviour is awful over multiple rounds, expect players to bring their retaliation onto future rounds''', ~~this can include skipping past escalation steps~~, '''~~this does not mean they can round-remove you if~~ you ~~haven't done anything to warrant it that round~~'''.

'''Verbal''' (including insults) -> '''Minor Aggression''' (non-harmful physical acts, such as pushing) -> '''Major Aggression''' (non-damaging physical acts, such as stunning) -> '''Non-lethal''' (soft-crit) -> '''Lethal''' (Death)

			'''The round-removal (RR) preference does not waive your protection from escalation rules''', it simply means that when someone kills you, instead of leaving your corpse where it is (with sensors) or bringing you to medical, etc., anyone involved may instead remove you from the round once you are dead.

			'''This does not mean you are protected from not being RR'ed with it turned off''', as regardless of preference, you may still be round-removed through execution or if you are considered uncontainable by security.

			:1.1. You must not kill someone for verbal attacks without serious escalation prior, and may never round remove someone regardless of future escalation.
			:1.2. You must not kill someone over being denied access from an area

			=== 2. Fuck around and find out ===

			'''Your actions in character (IC) on the server, just like real life, have consequences from the rest of the players'''. If you, or your character, are acting like a general nuisance, then you may be treated by other players as a nuisance.

			This is to say that if your characters behaviour is awful over multiple rounds, expect players to bring their retaliation onto future rounds'''; playing an intentionally rude, disrespectful, or negative character '''exempts you from the receiving end of the metagrudging rules'''. This can even include skipping past escalation steps (round removal preferences must still be obeyed).

			If the staff team determine that your actions are due to how you have been acting as your character, then things will be allowed to continue.
