OFFICIAL GUIDELINES & ENFORCEMENT
LAST UPDATED: AUGUST 18, 2026

SERVER RULES

RustSide enforces strict, non-negotiable competitive integrity across all network servers. All violations are permanently recorded against your Steam64 ID.

§ 1

No Toxic Behavior or Disrespect to Staff

Mute / In-Game Ban

We are here to help — disrespect or toxicity towards moderators and administrators can result in you being moderated in-game as well as in Discord.

  • Always remain respectful when dealing with community staff.
§ 2

Treat Everyone with Respect

Permanent Ban

Absolutely no racism, discriminatory slurs, or hate speech will be tolerated under any circumstances across our servers and community channels.

  • Zero tolerance for harassment, racism, or hate speech.
§ 3

No NSFW or Obscene Content

Permanent Ban

This includes text, images, avatar sprays, signs, or links featuring nudity, sex, hard violence, or other graphically disturbing content.

  • Keep all signs, chat, and discord content clean and SFW.
§ 7

No Spam or Self-Promotion

Instant Blacklist

No advertising other servers, services, cheats, or Discord invites without explicit permission from a staff member. This includes DMing fellow members.

  • Unauthorized promotional links and unsolicited DMs are strictly prohibited.
§ 8

English is the Official Language

Warning / Mute

Please use English in all public Discord channels and global communications to ensure clear, transparent communication between all members and moderators.

  • Helps our moderation team quickly review all reported situations.
§ 4

No Need to @ Admins

Warning

There is no need to @ tag admins directly; almost all times an admin is actively around and monitoring to assist everyone.

  • Use designated support tickets or in-game channels.
§ 5

Provide Full Info When Asking for Help

Notice

When asking for help, include all necessary details in your comment. Asking simply "Admin?" or "Admin I have a question" without details will not receive a reply.

  • State your player name, server, and exact issue in one concise message.
§ 6

Report Hackers via In-Game F7

Essential

Report suspected cheaters and hackers directly through the In-Game F7 Reporting menu. Admins receive an instant real-time copy and so does EAC / Facepunch for official review.

  • F7 reports capture game telemetry, combat logs, and angle metadata automatically.

Important Notice: Rules are not limited to what is written above and we can moderate however we see fit depending on the situation.

WITNESSED A RULE BREACH OR CHEATER?

Submit a direct player report with video evidence. Our 24/7 staff team reviews combat tickets within 5 minutes.
