DarkRP MOTD:

IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OF THE RULES AND JOB DUTIES PRIOR TO PLAYING!

18. Do not scam customers.
19. Do not hitbox (being able to shoot someone without them being able to shoot you back).
20. You must type "/advert [action]" Before performing a raid/mug/carjack/kidnap, and type "/advert [action] over" as it ends.
21. Do not abuse a job for personal gain and avoid your role-play responsibility (Ex: Going Gun Dealer to buy yourself weapons then switching back to another job, etc.).
22. No spawn killing (randomly shooting/stabbing someone in spawn, even if they are protected with spawn protection).

24. Two of the same service providers (Ex. gun dealers) cannot base together with the exception of mechanics.
25. Do not "Friend Claim" (killing anyone who kills someone else just because you claim to be "friends". To be valid "friends" you must have some RP relation to that character and in a party).

5. Do not use props to move cars.
