Code of conduct

What we promise you, and what we ask of you. Rust is a tough game; we keep it that way and keep it fair.

Our promises

  1. We chase cheaters.

    Facepunch's anti-cheat, plus our own AI layer that watches play on our servers. Detection is deliberate, kicks are warnings, and a ban follows only when the evidence holds up.

  2. We keep play fair.

    Everyone on our servers plays the same vanilla game on the same hardware. No kits, no shops, no paid advantage of any kind. What you achieve, you earned.

  3. We never ban you for stupid reasons.

    Being a brat in chat is not a ban. This game lets you be the human being you were born to be, or the one you would love to be. If everyone around you is toxic, that is human nature, not a rule violation.

Where the line is

Part of the game

  • Trash talk, taunts, being a brat. Cursing at the player who just doored you.
  • Every mechanic the game gives you, used however you like: roof camping, door camping, offline raids, naked bow rushes, betrayals.
  • Getting killed by a better player. That is not a report. That is Rust.

Not part of the game

  • Cheats, scripts, macros, bug exploits and dupes: anything that gives an advantage the game did not design in.
  • Real-world threats, doxxing, hate speech, and anything illegal.
  • Ban evasion.

We may filter chat to keep it readable. We will never ban you for talking like a gamer.

We will never ban a player for being good, for using the game's mechanics, or for making your life miserable inside the rules. If a skilled player killed you, we will not buy the cheater claim without evidence. The evidence is what our AI layer is for.

What we are building for you

Servers by regionPlanned
We will place servers by location so your ping stays low. Faster network communication is a real advantage, and one we can give every player on the right server.
Servers by experiencePlanned
We plan servers that separate the least experienced players from the most experienced, sorted by hours played in Rust. Newcomers get a place to learn; veterans get a place where everyone can shoot back.
