Civilian Standard Operating Procedures

The Civilian Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) are a set of guidelines and rules that all members of the Civilian Department must follow. These SOPs are designed to ensure a positive and respectful environment for all members of The Fake World community.

Player Conduct

Force RP

At NO point is Force RP allowed or appropriate. Do NOT force other players into scenes or RP that they may not want to be involved in. Respect all players and their RP.

Metagaming

Metagaming by watching live streams or videos of in-game players to declare their location to find them and interact with them is NOT permitted.

Staying in Character

It is important to ALWAYS stay in character while in the server. Do NOT break character for any reason. (All disciplinary actions and requests to make a report are handled OUT of the server and within the TFW Discord.)

Language

At all times, you should attempt to keep your language as clean as possible. If other players ask you to tone your language down, please do so. (Keep in mind many members are creating content or streaming.)

GTA Driving

At NO point will GTA driving be tolerated. Keep driving as realistic as possible.

Fear For Life

You are expected to show fear for your life in all RP scenarios where you would realistically show fear IRL (e.g., being held at gunpoint, someone holding a loved one at gunpoint, someone wielding an explosive device).

Discord and FiveM Profile

Profile Naming

Your Discord server profile name in TFW should be formatted as shown: Member Number | Name. For example: 123 | John Doe.

Profile Picture

Your server profile picture must not contain any indecent or sexual images.

Name Content

Your Discord/FiveM name must not contain any sexual, racial, or offensive terms/slang.

FiveM Profile Name

Your launcher profile name must match the name you have in our Discord server.

Profile Conduct

Your Discord profile must not contain any derogatory remarks towards the server or any of its members.

Character Cooldown

Character Cooldown is used in scenarios where your character has either died, been transported to the hospital for critical wounds, or has been arrested/jailed.

If your character has been killed, hospitalized, or jailed, you must NOT play as that character again for the remainder of the date of the incident.

If you are caught breaking this rule, disciplinary action will be taken.

Banned RP Scenes

Sexual Related Crimes

There are to be NO sexual related crimes such as sexual assault, rape, harassment, etc.

If you are caught RPing any of the above, you will be IMMEDIATELY banned from the server.

Stealing Emergency Vehicles

Stealing emergency vehicles is allowed, but you must already be a part of the RP scene, and the vehicle must be unlocked and unattended. You MAY NOT steal emergency vehicles from scenes you are not involved in. You also MAY NOT save the vehicle, and spawn it at a later time. Once the vehicle is stolen, it should not be deleted for the remainder of the session.

Suicide RP

Suicide attempts, whether failed or successful, are not permitted.

Terrorist Related Scenes

There are to be no scenes that are terrorist/terrorism driven or related.

Random Death Match (RDM)

There is to be NO killing without a reason or backstory. You cannot kill for no reason or without a backstory. This includes using vehicles as weapons to kill for no reason (VDM).

Throwing Bombs/Detaching Trailers in Pursuits

Throwing bombs during a pursuit is permitted, but should be done very lightly.

Detaching trailers during pursuits is NOT permitted. This is unrealistic.

Unrealistic Ped RP

There will be no unrealistic ped RP, such as Zombies or Aliens. Yeti RP is permitted but should be used very lightly, and as a "costume".

Federal Agency/Military RP

Federal Agency RP is NOT PERMITTED. Military RP is permitted but limited to passive activities only, such as transporting material, base work, or air work. Air work will be monitored, and Aviation RP must be realistic and safe.

Kidnapping of Emergency Service Personnel

Kidnapping of emergency service personnel is allowed but should be used lightly.

Underage Characters (Under 18)

All characters portrayed in the server must be 18 years of age or older. At no point are you allowed to portray a character under the age of 18. This will result in an immediate removal from the community.

Vehicles

You are not to use any of the vehicles in the list below.

Tanks/Turreted Vehicles (Only for transport, NOT TO BE DRIVEN)
Lore/Base Game emergency vehicles
Aircraft or ground vehicles with weapons/turrets/bombs
Base game vehicles that hold an advantage or unrealistic feature such as being bulletproof or having jet thrusters.

Vehicle Modifications:

You are not to have Bullet Proof Tires and or increased armor modifications on any vehicle.

Realism

TFW expects realism when it comes to RP, because not only does it enhance RP, but helps our content creators continue making outstanding content.

Cuffing and Fleeing

Once cuffed or tased, you can NOT continue running/fleeing from LEO.

Vehicle Exit

Once placed in the back of an LEO’s vehicle, you can NOT exit the vehicle on your own.

Roleplaying Injuries

Use common sense to RP your injuries, even if GTA/FiveM doesn’t automatically reflect them.

Glitches and Advantages

Using loopholes/glitches in GTA/FiveM to gain an advantage is NOT realistic.

Reviving and Leaving Scenes

Reviving and leaving a scene you are involved in is not realistic and may count as FRP.

Interfering with Scenes

Interfering with scenes you are not a part of and have not been invited to join is prohibited.

Aircraft

Do NOT spawn jet aircraft larger than private jets at Sandy Shores Airfield/Grape Seed airfield.
Do NOT fly recklessly or carelessly (e.g., low altitudes, taunting civilians).
Aircraft emergencies are allowed but should be used lightly.

Peds/Character Restrictions

NO nude or offensive Peds.
NO lore/base game LEO/Federal Agency/Fire/Military Peds.
NO peds missing body parts (e.g., heads/torso).
NO LEO/Federal Agency/Fire/Military clothing/uniforms.

Please keep duplication of characters and peds in the server to a minimum and or none. (If you see or know of someone that uses a ped regularly, please attempt to not duplicate to keep RP fresh. Twin/Triplet RP is acceptable).

You may not use characters from content creators you know of at any time. Keep your roleplay fresh and unique. While you can create a character inspired by them, direct copies—including name, ped, appearance, and other traits—are not allowed.

Businesses

If a business has an MLO or tools/vehicles to operate, you are welcome to run it. However, you must not refuse others the opportunity to RP within the business.

Security Guard RP

May NOT run vehicle security lights on roadways.
May wield a sidearm but are held to the same laws as all citizens.
May NOT interfere with LEO traffic stops or perform traffic stops.

Gang RP

Gang RP is allowed, but participants should be mindful of the number of LEO available to respond. Keep Gang-related activities as passive as possible when LEO presence is low.

Enterable Interiors

There are many enterable interiors in the server. You may RP in these locations, but you cannot claim ownership of any interior. If another player is already using an interior, find another for that session.
