1. Introduction The following document is a baseline agreement (hereafter "Guidelines") between Holtyx (hereafter "dotCore", represented by dotCore's Lab and its owner, Alexis Badel) and member of Holtyx Staff team (hereafter "Staff"). By joining our team, you agree to bellow stuff and sell your soul to dotCore. 2. Application process First of all, everyone must go through an application process which is reviewed by Staff and ultimately decided by dotCore. Conditions to apply as a Staff are the following: be at least 15 years old be able to understand and speak in English be an active player since at least two weeks have at least 24 hours playtime on our servers have clean records on our servers (no severe sanction - eg: lengthy ban - or multiple warns) We also expect applicants to be in a stable situation while applying, but also on foreseeable future (during their Trial period, etc.). 3. Trial period Trial period starts whenever an accepted applicant receives their role and permissions, and usually lasts 15 days. During this period, Staff have to be active and proficient with their duties to prove their determination. Upon trial ends, Administration will reunite to take a decision. In case of a failure and depending of the reasons retained by dotCore, Staff will or won't be able to apply again after 2 weeks. 4. Hierarchy A hierarchy is in place and Staff must respect it. In case of an issue between two Staffs that can't be resolved, an Administrator or dotCore can assist as a middleman. Even if a role is above another or a Staff has higher permissions, they shouldn't be condescending towards others. 5. Activity Staff activity is considered as a whole, a set of actions that can be carried out in order to contribute to the community. We offer various ways to participate, even for Staff without any extra role assigned. Here's a non-exhaustive list: Staff Discord participation (weekly meetings, vote in applications, etc.) Public Discord participation (welcome new members, discuss, react to official messages, answer to suggestions, etc.) Extra ideas (organizing an event, hosting a giveaway, etc.) We usually don't care or sanction inactive Staff as they can usually be available on a weekly basis. If you can't be here for more than a month though, you can put yourself on hold until your comeback. Please, always try to inform dotCore or any Administrator during an inactive period. 6. Warns In case of non-compliance with any of our guidelines or report by players for rule breaking, Staff can be sanctioned with a warning that will remains active for 30 days, or a direct demote if reason is too severe. Active warn length can be reduced or extended at the discretion of Administration. Having two active warns will lead to a demote too, you can refer to this table for further information. 7. Note to players I, dotCore, take player's comfort and security very seriously. That's why the following report types towards a Staff woud lead to a permanent ban and instant demotion: using Staff rank to abuse / pressure someone (this includes grooming, statutory rape or any kind of threatening) participating in any kind of harassment If you witness or suffer from any severe Staff abuse, feel free to report it through my DMs. (forums or Discord) Otherwise, for lighter abuses, use the Reports system.

Communication rules The following are prohibited in our chats: talking in a not allowed language (English / French / German / Russian / Bulgarian) mature content, some players are underage and therefore shouldn't be exposed to 18+ discussions (sexual, political, etc.) insults, even slight ones, towards another player, staff member or the server flood, meaningless communications that aim to saturate a voice / text chat spam, repeating a message multiple times within a short time range (this includes CAPS spam) provocation, towards anyone (any form of belittling, mockery, systematic opposition, etc.), with the aim of provoking a conflictual situation with them advertisement, of any kind, of a third-party platform (websites, YouTube channels, etc.) currency beg, asking for coins / gems to other players, even if you're a newcomer discrimination of any kind (racism, sexism, transphobia, etc.) accusing a player or a staff member (use this to report them) identity theft, of a notorious person or anyone DDoS / DoX threats, legit or not blackmailing ("give me X coins or I focus you") any voluntary action or incentive that could cause a server slowdown or crash dissemination or request of personal information (even with consent) 3. Game rules 3.1. All gameservers The following are prohibited: using an alt account to bypass a sanction playing with multiple GMod instances at once (eg: with Sandboxie) using any third-party software / device that gives you an unfair advantage over players using something to prevent being flagged by our AntiAFK using a modified Garry's Mod client (you will most likely be flagged and kicked under 20ms) using a VPN to bypass an IP restriction (includes proxies, socks5, etc.) using / publishing Holtyx Games assets or source files using any kind of exploit / usebug using a duplicated item, or an item that you shouldn't have access to 3.2.
