1.03. The rules apply to all players, regardless of their status on the project.

Terminology
Reprimand — A note/warning from an administrator so the player could notice the issue and fix their behavior.
Kick — Disconnecting the player from the server.
Mute — Blocking access to the text chat.
Voice Mute — Blocking access to the voice chat.
Jail — Isolating the player in a special area.
Warn — A formal warning that applies temporary restrictions to the player.
When you receive a Warn, you are automatically removed from your faction (if you're in one) and can't join any faction for 10 days. After those 10 days, you can join factions again, but the Warn stays on your account. Receiving 3 Warns automatically leads to a 10-day account ban.
Ban — Temporary account block.
PermBan — Permanent account block.
Report Mute — Blocking the /report command (complaints and questions to administrators and helpers).
Account Wipe — Complete reset of all account possessions.
Removes all money, phone numbers, character skins, vehicles (including license plates), properties, transport / construction companies, businesses, gas stations, disbands the family, and clears the entire inventory.
High Crime Activity Zone (DM Zone) — An area where large-scale shootouts between players happen regularly on a daily basis (for example, the 24/7 store near the entrance to Arzamas), PVP-zone.
Machinations — Actions that violate project rules and lead to temporary or permanent penalties.
These are violations that can lead to temporary or permanent bans.
Example: a player buys in-game currency on one account and transfers it to another personal account (for example, using a vehicle trunk), which violates multiple project rules and results in punishment for fraudulent activity.
Project Blacklist (PB) — A list of players banned from all project resources except game chats (Discord servers, TG, WhatsUp), the official portal.
