Chat & Behavior Rules

  • English is the only permitted language in global text chat and in-game chat.
  • Do not tag or ping any staff members.
  • Racism, sexism, hate speech, discrimination, or any form of toxic behavior is strictly forbidden. Your Discord account represents you as an individual, and these rules apply there as well.
  • Spamming of any kind is not allowed.
  • Advertising or promoting external communities, servers, or services is prohibited.
  • NSFW content is not allowed in text or voice channels, including in-game player names and group names.
  • Impersonating staff members, players, or groups is not permitted.
  • Excessive trolling in Discord or in-game will not be tolerated.
  • DayZ is meant to be enjoyed by everyone. Deliberately trying to ruin another player’s experience is not allowed.

 

Meta-Gaming

  • Meta-gaming is strictly prohibited.
  • Do not share or hint at other players’ locations or base positions, either directly or indirectly.
  • Do not announce or hint at ongoing player activity.
  • Examples of Meta-gaming: “Who is shooting in Vybor?”, “Who killed me in Cherno?”.

 

Raid announcements are also considered meta-gaming:

  • Direct: “We’re raiding them right now—bring explosives and push in.”
  • Indirect: “Explosions are already happening, might be a good time to join.”

 

Reporting Issues

  • Do not accuse players of cheating or rule violations in public chat.
  • Use Report a Rule Breaker or Report a Cheater instead.
  • Do not make accusations of admin abuse in chat.
  • Any concerns must be submitted through the Concerns channel.
