Faction Immortal Rules

❝ Rules that will be abided by, ensuring Factions is played in its true essence. ❞

   The management team (Sr.Mods, Manager, Owner) reserve the right to apply non-listed punishments if they consider it necessary.

   In order to report anyone on forums for violating any of these rules, select "Factions Rules" in rules list and mention the specific rule below.
   For all of the rules that have screenshot listed as required proof, please note that a Video Recording will always be more handy to report a faction for any rule; though not required.
   What is considered required proof for these rules might not always be, depending on the case, as there tend to be rules that require further input and inspection from Team Faction members.

   Team Factions along with the Management Team reserves the right to disqualify factions for special cases where the issues may not be mentioned above, and allow factions to compete even if they may break certain rules.

   You will most likely be punished if you try to bypass the rules with small technicalities. The staff member determines the rule broken and they have the last word.

   Any duping or use of serious glitches will result in automatic disqualification and disbanding.

   If a faction does not fix an issue with their base within 24 hours of notice/punishment, they will be punished accordingly with the next offense.

   Rollbacks will never occur unless there is a dupe / major bug. However, In some cases of broken rules, the affected faction may be reimbursed through a banknote.
