The rulebook

12 sections

  1. Fair play – no cheating

    Cheats, hacks, macros, scripts and any software that gives you an advantage are forbidden. Knowingly playing together with cheaters is forbidden as well. Consequence: permanent ban. Facepuch report.

    #
  2. Bugs & exploits

    Abusing game bugs is forbidden – such as shooting or building through walls or rocks, duplicating items or getting under the map. Please report bugs you find via the Supportmenu instead of spreading them.

    #
  3. Respect in chat & voice

    No racism, no discrimination, no threats and no insults. Rust can be rough – but never personal. No spam, no caps-lock walls, no flooding the chat. Consequences: Escalation levels ranging from a mute to a permanent ban.

    #
  4. Privacy

    Publishing other people's private data (name, address, photos, IP, accounts) or threatening someone outside the game leads to an immediate permanent ban.

    #
  5. Respect the group limit

    Teams up to 8, clans up to 25 players. The limit applies to everyone who builds, lives, farms or raids together – even without an in-game team. Constantly swapping members to get around the limit is forbidden. Inviting new players is possible if an existing player has not been in the same group or clan for more than 24 hours.

    #
  6. Build fairly

    Don't wall off or block monuments, their entrances, roads or spawn points. Don't wall in other players' bases or trap them permanently. Wall-blocking is no reason for a ban; however, admins reserve the right to intervene in the game if it creates a gamebreaking or unfair advantage.

    #
  7. No griefing

    Raiding and PvP are part of Rust – targeted harassment is not. Permanent spawn camping, trapping individual players or repeatedly hunting and wrecking newcomers without any gameplay reason is not allowed.

    #
  8. No advertising

    Advertising other servers, Discords, shops or websites is forbidden – in chat, on signs, in names and clan tags.

    #
  9. No selling between players

    Players may not sell items, bases or accounts to each other for real money or outside the game. The official DieselRust store is not affected – purchases are only made there.

    #
  10. Names, signs & images

    No offensive, racist, sexual or otherwise inappropriate names, clan tags, signs or images. The staff removes such content without warning.

    #
  11. Ban evasion

    Evading a ban with another account leads to a permanent ban of every account involved.

    #
  12. Staff decisions & penalties

    The staff decides based on these rules and common sense. Penalties increase with severity: warning, mute, kick, temporary ban, permanent ban. Questions or appeals via Support in the menu or on dieselrust.com – not in global chat.
