Adverts

You do not have to advert for raids, PD raids, mugging, hits etc

FearRP:

FearRP does not exist on the server, expecting nobody to defend themselves whilst being mugged IRL (in real life) is silly, some people will defend themselves, some people won't, and by having FearRP it essentially forces the victim to give the the thief their cash or face the wrath of admin.
By not having FearRP muggers also have to be creative in the ways that they rob players, they have to lure them somewhere private where they can't escape, or something along those lines, this ensures the overall playerbase has more fun and is more creative.

FailRP:

If you take issue with the way a player is handling a situation then deal with it yourself, on SnakeTongue the players do not have to follow the instructions of their job description without comprise, they can improvise. Do not whine the moment the player does something their character MIGHT not do (e.g thieves alerting cops to a PD raid, thieves could change their ways or rat out their fellow thieves in return for money or temporary immunity or some other reward).

Self-Supply:

We do not approve of self-supply as players can become gun dealers simply to supply themselves with weapons and refuse to sell them to anyone else, if someone is a gun dealer and is ONLY self-supplying and never supplying anyone else with weapons then start a vote to demote the player, do not ask an admin to intervene as it creates unnecessary work.

Disrespect Towards Staff Members:

The following summarizes what I would say adequately: "

Respect is earned, not demanded. Disrespect rules are an easy for admins to avoid having to properly deal with criticism. Anyone who criticises the server or the behaviour of admins can be gotten rid of with this rule. This gives admins the idea that they’re always right, and that people who disagree need not be tolerated. This is a very bad situation to be in. An admin’s job is not to be right, and an admin who can learn from criticism is much better than one who cannot.

Admins should be capable of properly dealing with criticism. They are to be able to listen to criticism even if it contains some curse words. They should be able to deal with situations where they or other admins are accused of abuse or when aspects of the server are criticised. Admins who punish people who give valid criticism should be warned, or even demoted if they fail to grasp the concept of valid criticism."

NOTE:

NLR:
Once again, I am going to reference the document linked below:

"Believe it or not, there was a time when NLR wasn’t a thing. People would come back to their base continuously to try to save their weapons and money printers. Raiders would watch the entrance for incoming revenge. They’d put the loot in a safe place, only to wait for the victims’ attempt to get it back.

There’s little more frustrating than looking at your base being raided, able to intervene and save your stuff, but not allowed to because of a rule or some NLR script. The rules force a player to just wait and do nothing. Wait to go back to the base and rebuild it all. They can’t really try to get their stuff back, since that would require “knowledge” of the fact that it was stolen. DarkRP wasn’t designed for NLR.

Abolishing NLR would make fights bigger and more exciting. Grabbing the loot is boring if the owners are dead and the admin makes sure they don’t come back. It’s more of a challenge if you have to keep a lookout. It also encourages the police to try to catch the criminals. After all, it’s much more rewarding if the police officers can keep trying while the raid is going on. Don’t worry too much about ensuing chaos, that’s precisely what DarkRP is designed for."

Everything else I have to say regarding the rest of the typical DarkRP rules can be found via the source material from which this content was derived from.
