These rules apply to the [ZÅ] Servers Running on Phasor, primarily our Zombie Gametype Servers.

• Game Type: Zombie Infection

• Objective: Zombies (blue) try to infect humans (red) by mêléeing them.

Rules for Zombies

• All zombies should be trying to infect humans and not doing anything else.
• A.F.K. (Away From Keyboard) zombies will be kicked, either by the server or an admin. 
• Zombies that are not A.F.K. but are not going after humans will be kicked by an admin. 
• Zombies may ladder to reach humans.

Rules for Humans

• Humans are not allowed to stack or ladder (i.e. multiple humans piling on top of one another) in order to reach safer ground.
• Jetpacking (using grenades, either by themselves or or with others) for the purpose of getting a human to safer ground that normally would not be reachable is not allowed. If a human cannot get there on their own the spot it is not allowed (this includes pillars and high rocks).  
• All areas of map (except for areas humans can't reach alone) are allowed at game start unless an admin calls an area of the map off-limits or declares camping not allowed until a certain time; those in-game rules must be followed.
• Please refrain from excessive spawn killing.
• Rage quitting as the last man standing is unfair to the other players and is not allowed.
• Rage quitting in general is frowned upon and will result in your being the alpha zombie more often. If you need to leave do so as human or after you have infected at least one human to take your place.

Rules for All

• The server takes care of the technical rules so those listed here are enforced by ZÅ admins and members.
• Blocking of any kind is not allowed. This includes but is not limited to: stairs, hallways and teleports. There are anti-blocking scripts in place and the server will kill you in certain places.
  • Telecamping is considered blocking. Telecamping is defined as being in the teleport itself and also as standing/crouching next to it with the intention of catching out players comign through the teleport before they have a chance to defend.
• Any kind of program that gives a player an edge over other players is not allowed. This includes but is not limited to: aimbots, clickbots, sight-jackers, and auto-shooters.
• Recruiting for other clans is not allowed.
• Rage quitting, quitting in a way that disrupts gameplay, is not allowed.

Rage Quits are defined as:

• LMS quitting as an alpha zombie (i.e. before the next game starts - once game has started, see below).
• Alpha zombies quitting immediately after game start (must play 4 minutes or get an infection).

Ocassionally, admins will use commands or enforce an in-game rule to speed up game-play. These actions are ZÅ-approved and are not considered hacking or cheating.

• In-Server Language: Bullying of any kind, spamming, excessive trolling, arguing and bickering is not allowed in our servers. Cussing is allowed. However, using excessive bad words that are directed at another player/admin/clan is not allowed. Explicitely sexual language is not allowed. For example, a player may say, 'Fuck, that sucks,' but they may not say, 'Fuck you, Raz!' Derogatory, homophobic and racist language/comments are not allowed. A player may say, 'I love gay people,' but they may not say, 'You guys are fags!' Many 'bad words' are autmatically filtered from the chat. Do not try to find ways to circumvent the filters. We know what you are trying to say and it is still against the rules.

• In-Server Player Names: Names may include 'bad' words. However, names that insult ZÅ or its members/admins or other players are not allowed. Names and tags that too closely resemble ZÅ's players or tags are not allowed. Names that use derogatory, homophobic or racist language are not allowed. Players may not use any names that are explicitely sexual in nature. For example, a player may use the name 'Fucker' but may not use the name 'NiggsSuck'. Admins have the final say as to what is allowed and what is not. Comply with their ruling if they ask you to change your name.

• Regarding Admins: The easiest way to stay out of trouble is to listen. All players must listen to the admins in game even if the rules they are enforcing are not listed on this page. Any issue that arises in game or any decision that needs to be made in game that is not listed here or in the Admin Guidelines is left up to the highest ranking admin in the server. This means an admin can direct game play and behaviour in the server even if it's not mentioned in our rules. Explicit and implied ZÅ rules are not debatable. Simply: Our Server, Our Rules. Should any player dispute the behaviour of an admin it must be addressed on them Complaints Section of our website. It will not be addressed in-game.

Rules should be followed both with admins present and without. Reports of misbehaviour are investigated and infractions found in server logs are punishable even if an admin is not present in the server at the time of the infraction. Not knowing ZÅ rules is not a valid defense for breaking them.
