Welcome To Sector 12!
Please read all the rules below!

The three who may edit these rules are Pöm-Pöm, Sméag,and Gold. No one else.

New Life Rule

The New Life Rule (NLR) states that once you die, you forget everything that happened to you. This means that, after you die, you don't immediately go back to the place you died.
In our server after you die, We have a NLR Zone. you must stay away from the place you died previously for 5 minutes .
If you died while being raided, you are free to go on back after your NLR time without guns drawn. (Because you cannot remember that you were raided, or who raided you, so you can't be prepared).

• Civil Protection may ignore NLR during a  raid on the Police Department (since it is their home). If Civil Protection dies during a raid they are allowed to go back to the PD without guns drawn.
  
• Raiders may not return to a raid that they have died during even after the 5 minutes is up.
  
• Defenders may return to their base during a raid if the 5 minutes expires.
