SERVER RULES

By logging into a Black Shark Den DCS Server, players agree to follow our Discord community rules in addition to the following:

1. All players must strive to practice proper air traffic control etiquette around airfields, FARPS and ships at all times.
2. Users must make every attempt to state their intentions in advance, preferably using SRS, but at a minimum, the in-game chat.
3. When human Air Traffic Control or a JTAC operator is active, all players must comply with their instructions and establish two-way communication with them via SRS or in-game chat when entering his area.
4. The complete list of frequencies to be used on this server is available HERE.

1. Takeoffs and landings are to be done in a timely manner.
2. It is the responsibility of all players involved to avoid crashes on airfields/FARPS/ships and collisions with other players.
3. The AI ATC has no authority.
4. Helicopters must use designated helicopter landing zones when operating at airfields, FARPS or ships.

Do not behave in a reckless manner. Examples of reckless behaviour would be:

1. Aerobatics over airfields or near other players
2. Non-consensual close formation flying
3. Firing into Areas of Operations where other friendly helicopters are already engaged and without any sort of radio coordination

1. Other players kills are strictly prohibited even if the parties know each other. Automatic temporary bans are enforced by scripts.
2. Knowingly engaging targets assigned to another group of helicopters or picking up cargos or infantry groups assigned to others is not allowed.
3. Destruction of friendly ground equipment and vehicles around airfields or FARPS as well as sinking friendly ships is strictly forbidden,
4. Using core mods that give you an unfair advantage (weapons mods, visibility mods,…) is forbidden. (Armed UH-60 Mod is allowed and exempt from this rule)
5. Excessively spamming server messages and sounds/music over SRS is not permitted.

The Admins and Moderators will interpret and enforce these rules at their discretion within the context of the violation.

Consequences may include:

• Verbal warning
• Kicked out of aircraft to spectators
• Kicked out of game server
• Server bans
• Discord bans

• Bans from the BSD Discord Server will also include a ban from our game servers.
• Players banned from the public BSD game server can appeal their ban via BSD Discord in the 「😭」violations channel. Be prepared to either prove how your actions were not a violation or how you will prevent further violations, if given another chance to fly in our community.

Upon joining any of the BSD public game server, you agree to follow all existing rules and understand they are subject to change over time.
