Scamming is allowed, but scams must follow these guidelines:
- Lsrcr tagged players may not scam. (Rule applies to those that have lost their tag but have had it once)
- You may only scam up to $3,000,000 if you do not have the Lsrcr tag (pay $3,000,001 to not get scammed).

Respect The Server:
- Do not forward your reports or unban applications to administrators unless you have a really good reason to. For instance, it really needs to be rushed or only that administrator would be able to handle it.
- Avoid using caps lock.
- Avoid always using inappropriate words, meaning don't just constantly use them in the mainchat. If you want to joke around with a friend like that, try to take it to /pm instead.
- Do not post any links in main chat. (You’re allowed to post official LSRCR links like ls-rcr.com/rules or ls-rcr.com/donate)
- Do not make /q and/or /reconnect jokes as a way of tricking players to closing/restarting their connection to the server.
- Do not lie to an administrator in any way.
- Threatening, claiming or actually going through with hacking and/or DDoSing players is forbidden.
- Threatening to attack (DDoS) and/or hack the server is NOT allowed. Also, claiming you have attacked or hacked the server is just as bad, same with actually going through with it, completely forbidden.
- You are not allowed to ban evade for any reason.
- Forcing players to leave the server to play another game is forbidden. (You cannot force a player to leave the server to play / do something else, you have to wait until the user leaves ingame and then you may play other games with him.)
- Listen to the staff team. If a moderator or an administrator tells you to stop talking about a certain thing in the chat, then you should stop it. So if an administrator tells you to stop talking about religion in the main chat, you have to obey him.
- You are not allowed to copy the Ls-rcr content, this includes script, forum content, groups etc.
- Encouraging others to hack or break the rules in any way is forbidden.
- Do not constantly bother staff members for packets, teleports, events and similar things. This often holds staff members back from helping players who actually need real help.
- You are not allowed to speak foreign languages in the main chat (that also includes one words).
Note to all players: If you had the tag at one point, and it was removed for any reason, the rules will still apply to you as if you had the tag (strict punishments and scam restrictions). This is also the case for alternate accounts.

- Posting the same or similar content more than once
- Advertising another business/server/project/etc.

Respect The Forum
- Do not post report links in chats or topics. Admins know the reports are there, and they will get to them as soon as they can.
