Game Server Rules
No cheating, hacking or map exploits are allowed. Anything that gives you advantage over other players, regardless of being of a hardware or software nature, will not be tolerated.
Cursing is not permitted.
No shooting in spawn, intentional team killing or team wounding will be tolerated. Remember to apologize to someone if you team kill them accidentally.
Do not call other people cheaters or hackers. Nobody likes whining people, and calling them names will not solve the situation – it’ll make it worse for you, actually. If you suspect someone of hacking, go on spectator mode, record a demo and submit a ban request through sourceban link on site portal. It will be reviewed and appropriate actions taken.
Horse play will not be tolerated when it interferes with game play or otherwise distracts from other players enjoyment of our server. (for example, hitting your teammates with a knife/shovel in spawn, throwing your gun in the air and picking it up, etc.), during game. If you’re playing, then do what you’re supposed to do, and help your team get the victory.
Porn sprays or user logos are not allowed.
Banning and ban appeals:
Every admin has the right to correct and/or punish a disruptive player the way he thinks fits the situations according to RSS guidelines. Long bans for minor infractions and etc. will not be tolerated.
Every player has the right to protest a ban. This can be done by clicking the sourceban link on the site portal and filling out a un-ban request. Do not post your unban request in forums!! Do not hound RSS members!! Your request will be reviewed and appropriate action taken.

General Admin Conduct:
All RSS Admin should be Calm and Assertive in Performing they're Admin Duties.
Don't forget the word "Please" goes a long way.
Remember that we have a 3 Strikes Rule. Don't forget to remind players of this rule.
Perm Bans:
Perm Bans can ONLY be administered by RSS Generals and/or be ordered to be done.
Perm Bans should always be I.P. Banned. /The General(s) involved in the Perm Ban should always show in the Sourceban Record.
Map Changes and Map Votes
All map votes MUST be made by the Senior Admin in server or Authorized by such.
All map votes MUST include the Current Map with the exception of Snowbridge, in the event of a map vote while Snowbridge is current map, Snowbridge will not be included in vote.
All map votes are primarily for consideration for our public gamers not the whims and wishes of the admins.
All map votes must be limited to “3” Popular Maps.
Any Admin not adhering to these policies for map votes will have their map vote privileges revoked and be sent to Generals for review.
For Clarification:
The part “additional issues” relates to Multiple Infractions/Violations
Example:"Player was T/King. Was warned, then kicked, then came back with some foul remarks and disrespected the Admin."
In that case a Longer Ban/Harsher Punishment is warranted and should be leveled against that player. However doing so
must include the additional violations in the comment section in sourcebans / and a request for Harsher Punishment must be included. By harsher, it must still be within ban guidelines until reviewed and approved by Sourceban Admin and/or Generals.
Understand that administrating our servers with to lenient of a punishment is just as bad as being to harsh. Our players expect and deserve fair play, a fun gaming environment, and mature and fair Admins. Our Admins generally are great people which are the cornerstone of our gaming community. We represent Riddick’s Speed Snipers and as such MUST adhere to the rules and above all else set the example that “WE” are our community!!
Foot Note:
All members with Admin Powers MUST visit the Forums/Soursebans websites multiple times per week to make sure that they are current with any and all RSS changes and re-visions, as well as being an Active Member in our community.
The days of “I haven’t checked those websites for over a month” are gone. We WILL be a proactive group and keep current on our duties as Admins.
Being an Admin in RSS is a privilege, not a right, so earn that privilege by being a Great Admin!!!
All RSS members who have Admin Powers MUST and WILL register, set-up, and use Sourcebans.
Those of you who have not been visiting that website, or have not set-up sourcebans within 1 weeks time of this posting, will have their Admin Powers Revoked until they fall into compliance.
No amount of complaining will get these powers re-instated. You MUST be in compliance with the sourcebans requirements before they will be re-instated, PERIOD!!
...............................................................................................................................................................................
We are the people who regulate the servers!!!
So, "Regulators!!…. Mount up!!" and be the Shining Example we all know you are!!
