====== SERVER RULES ======

====Agreement====
By logging into a Black Shark Den DCS Server, players agree to follow our Discord community rules in addition to the following:
====Air Traffic Control====
  - All players must strive to practice proper air traffic control etiquette around airfields, FARPS and ships at all times. 
  - Users must make every attempt to state their intentions in advance, preferably using SRS, but at a minimum, the in-game chat. 
  - 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. 
  - The complete list of frequencies to be used on this server is available [[radio_communications|HERE]].

====Ground operations====
  - Takeoffs and landings are to be done in a timely manner.
  - It is the responsibility of all players involved to avoid crashes on airfields/FARPS/ships and collisions with other players. 
  - The AI ATC has no authority.
  - Helicopters must use designated helicopter landing zones when operating at airfields, FARPS or ships.
====Reckless behavior====
Do not behave in a reckless manner. Examples of reckless behaviour would be: 
  - Aerobatics over airfields or near other players 
  - Non-consensual close formation flying
  - Firing into Areas of Operations where other friendly helicopters are already engaged and without any sort of radio coordination
====Sportmanship and griefing====
  - <text size="large" background="danger">Other players kills are strictly prohibited</text> even if the parties know each other. Automatic temporary bans are enforced by scripts. 
  - Knowingly engaging targets assigned to another group of helicopters or picking up cargos or infantry groups assigned to others is not allowed. 
  - Destruction of friendly ground equipment and vehicles around airfields or FARPS as well as sinking friendly ships is strictly forbidden, 
  - 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)
  - Excessively spamming server messages and sounds/music over SRS is not permitted.
====Enforcement and consequences====
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 
===Notes===
  * 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 [[https://discord.gg/blacksharkden|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. 
====Final agreement====
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.
