Most rules fall under common sense behavior and are straight to the point, but some may need further explanation, which will be outlined here.
Note: LOOS is under the 3 offense policy, if punishments were handed out more than 2 times, you will receive a permanent punishment for continued offenses. We reserve the right to revoke this clause due to severity of rule breakage if need be.

Rule 1: On LOOS, there is a zero tolerance policy towards cheating, while we believe that people can change and always encourage an appeal on older infractions, cheating is the one infraction that is the most serious, and most cases, will not be appealable.
Exploiting means taking advantage of design flaws in the map, server, or game to other players' detriment, glitches that do not harm other players severely, such as the civilian pose, are allowed.
Rule 2: Disruptive and disrespectful behavior towards others and the server isn’t tolerated, this applies for any language that is considered derogatory whether directed towards a player or not, such as slurs. We want a safe and healthy community and this behavior impedes that.
Rule 3: This rule is an extension of Rule 2, and applies to anything that players can change or edit, this includes, but not limited to, player profile names, pictures, voice or text communication, sprays, decals, and weapon names/descriptions. Players with inappropriate content will be permanently banned and told to appeal, with a few exceptions such as sprays, and the Conscientious Objector from Team Fortress 2, which are handled separately.
Rule 4: Chat spam is repeated words/binds in text chat in a short amount of time, Soundboards are okay, provided they are not loud, obnoxious, repeated constantly. We ask that players don’t play over others to the point that people cannot use voice chat like it’s intended. We advise the use of voice_loopback 1 in your developer console to be aware of your volume in game.
Rule 6: Don't attempt to circumvent, mitigate, or otherwise tamper with a punishment that has been handed out due to your actions, you make the situation worse on yourself if you attempt to appeal said punishment.
Rule 7: This rule implies that the player is not fighting the boss at all or helping the team in some manner. In Vs Saxton Hale, non-participants harm the game play for others, as the boss's health scales with player count, it makes it harder for other players to get a fair match, and causes players to wait longer than they should for the next round to start. Non-Participating actions can include, but are not limited to, deliberately hiding from the boss, taunting all match, not helping teammates, etc.
Please note, this rule is not a skill rule, you do not have to be good at VS Saxton Hale to be in compliance with this rule, we just ask that you show some effort in assisting your teammates as opposed to doing nothing all match.
Rule 9: VPN/Proxy usage while connected to a game server is not permitted because of how the ban system works, we have to prevent alternative accounts from being easy to use, and players using these services, impedes that.
