GriM's Salvage & Co Private Hive Server. Come Join Us!

[crohakon 4]

-=-=-= GSC History =-=-=-

GriM's Salvage & Co was founded by the GriM brothers, Optimus and Luxifer, as a means to gather like minded DayZ players looking to work together, help others, and avoid the many hackers and script kiddies that infect the DayZ universe. Originally the idea was to hunt down bandits on public servers to help make it safer for those who wish to be friendly, but we soon ended up opting on a move to a private server. As the clan has rapidly evolved we have have come to own and operate our own server using the Bliss private hive.

-=-=-= GSC Mission =-=-=-

The mission of GSC currently is to create a friendly social environment for people who want to enjoy DayZ without fear of script kiddies. GSC has recently established a server so as to better develop this environment by having control of who can access the server. This also gives us the advantage of being able to see the logs and make sure that everything remains fair and balanced. We also pride ourselves in not taking advantage of our access to the server back end to get ahead of others on the server.

-=-=-= GSC Code of Conduct =-=-=-

Members of GSC are to be held to a high standard of integrity. We do not permit the use of exploits, hacks, scripts, duping, or combat logging during pvp.

Members of GSC are to respect other players. GSC is a friendly clan, but does reserve the right to defend itself. We also reserve the right to preemptively attack those we consider bandits. GSC members are required to make a good will attempt at contact via DC or SC to make friendly contact. If no response is give, or if a hostile response is given, we reserve the right to use deadly force.

Members of GSC, as inline with a high standard of integrity, are not to use our friendly nature to get the drop on innocent players or bandits.

Members of GSC are not allowed to knowingly use hacked, duped, or other exploited items or vehicles. These objects and items are to be disposed of per our private hive rules. This rule does not apply on public servers. While we still do not allow our members to use scripts, hacks, et cetera we do allow the use of any loot found on public servers. Due to the high number of script kiddies on public servers it is a major disadvantage if we do not use what we find when we kill them.

Members of GSC are expected to provide assistance where and when it is needed. While we mostly operate on private hive servers it is encouraged to run rescue missions for friend, allies, or unknowns as a means to develop good will.

Members of GSC are not to expect anything in return for any aid we give. We are strong, we are many, and we should use that for the better good of what remains of human existence on this cursed world.

Members of GSC are expected to be professional in all acts. This also goes inline with a high standard of integrity. While we do not see an issue with friendly competitive banter, we do expect our members to understand where to draw a line and avoid insults and personal attacks of character.

Members of GSC are expected to work together as a team, but also to maintain self reliance. Due to the nature of the game, while it is a nice thought that jobs like keeping the camps stocked should be assigned to one person, this often leads to burn out and frustration of members. Do not expect others to gather your basics.

Members of GSC are expected to protect organizational assets.

Members of GSC are expected to be active in the forums, keeping up to date on recent events, and actively discussing concerns brought up. We are strong, we are many in one. No voice should be ignored. That said, all members of GSC are expected to respect the final decision of GSC Leadership.

-=-=-= Duping =-=-=-

Duping is not allowed. If you are caught duping you will be warned once. If you are caught again, you will be banned.

Duping by accident is no excuse. You are not to knowingly use duped items. If you or someone else dupes something by accident you are expected to dispose of the item. We will keep an eye on those we suspect of duping and monitor inventories if we feel it is warranted.

-=-=-= Hacking/Scripting =-=-=-

We have no mercy. If you are caught scripting you will be removed. If you are not good enough to play without cheating, THIS is a better game for you. We will keep an eye on those we suspect of hacking. Trends are a justification for banning.

-=-=-= Bandits/KoS =-=-=-

We do not have a rule against KoS. We do however have a hope that those desiring to play as bandits explore other aspects of the bandit lifestyle. What do we mean by that? Well, being creative. Try taking hostages, robbing at gunpoint but not killing, blackmailing by finding campsites and threatening to release information about it to the public unless you are given an item you desire. Another great aspect is the sneak-thief. Know a populated campsite? Try to sneak in and steal items while it is active without getting caught. Bandits make the server interesting, but assholes ruin the game. Keep that in mind. Don't over do it, but do it well.

-=-=-= Base Injection =-=-=-

We are willing to inject certain building types for groups. We require a group to have at least 5 active members before we will consider injecting a building for you. Building types will be limited to practical setups. Medical tents, camo netting, walls, et cetera are possible building types. Hospitals, office buildings, fire stations, et cetera are not possible building types. We are still working out the details on the process but we will most likely use hedgehogs and change them in the database.

-=-=-= Respecting Campsites =-=-=-

While we will hold no rule against completely looting and destroying campsites we would prefer some level of respect be given. One of our desires is to have groups attempt to control sections of the map as their own territory. As with many online games it is simply too easy to take advantage of opponents down time and completely destroy someone else experience. We are not against assaults on campsites/groups but we would prefer that constantly attacking one campsite/group not become a trend. Give people a chance to regroup. Attacking and destroying a base of a group while they are offline is looked down upon. If you plan to raid, be sure to make sure at least 3 members of the group are online so they have a chance to defend. Raiding and destroying peoples work while they are offline is cheap and only makes you look bad. Essentially, just be sure your fun is not destroying someone else's chance at fun. At the end of the day this is a game we play for enjoyment. If people are not enjoying the game they will leave.

-=-=-= PvP =-=-=-

PvP is an important part of this game, and we do hope that groups work together to claim and protect their land and assets. That said, it is important that gentlemen rules are follow for PvP. What does this mean? Be honest, don't exploit, and do not combat log. As per noted above with groups and campsites it is also important that the constant killing of the same person over and over again be avoid. Remember, people come here to have fun and even if you can out skill them give them a chance to rearm, regroup, and enjoy the game a little.

-=-=-= Vehicle Hoarding =-=-=-

While we understand that large groups may need more vehicles we do expect that one group should not hoard a large amount of vehicles simply to deny other groups from having them. General suggestion: 1 Person, 1 Vehicle; 4 People, 2 Vehicles; 6 People, 3 Vehicles; 8 People, 4 Vehicles; 14 People, 5 Vehicles; 18 People, 6 Vehicles; 20 People and more, 7 Vehicles. We consider having a helicopter to be equal to 2 vehicles. While we do not have a rule against having all the helicopters, it is looked down upon.

-=-=-= Side Chat / General Communication =-=-=-

We do not allow the usage of voice over side chat.

Side chat text conversations should be kept to a minimum. The only reason to use side chat is for identification purposes when approaching someone you do not know or are unsure about. Any casual conversation should take place in direct chat only or via another third party program such as teamspeak, vent, mumble, et cetera.

Language that is offensive, racial, hateful or vulgar is not tolerated and we have a zero tolerance policy on offenders. Please keep language civil. While we generally cater to more mature players we do not deny access to younger players. We want this to be a safe environment for all ages.

We have had a great response but always welcome more...Would like to see more bandit types join us.

We keep growing. Like Luxifer said, we could use a few more aggressive but respectful players that might want to play the bandit role.
