### Verbal Warnings

In some instances, you may Verbally Warn players. Verbal warnings are warnings that do not get logged. In other words- they are actions that you deem don't deserve a proper warning but should be addressed.

An example of a valid verbal warning could be when a player is using an exotic vehicle but they didn't know about the in-game rule and seemed like an honest mistake.

The purpose of verbal warnings are for when you need to reprimand players, but do not wish to log a warning.

## Team Removals

You may remove players from certain teams for up to 15 minutes if they aren't doing their job correctly. You may have to remove a player from a team for many reasons.

<br>

-Players not doing their job (e.g EMS Not reviving players)

-Panic button abuse (e.g Using their panic button for situations that aren't dire)

-Trolling (e.g Placing/Spamming cones or other placeable objects without any reason)

<br>

If a player does not abide by the time of the team removal, you may kick them for 10-15 minutes. The same rule of kicks apply to this, meaning you may ban players that do not stay out of the server.

### Kick Actions

* Evading Staff
* Constantly being disruptive to roleplay and/or disrespectful to members/staff
* User has 3+ warnings within four days
* Mass VDM

&#x20;Note - All kicks should last 30 minutes - 1 hour. (exception for **Team Removals**)

It is within your jurisdiction to decide (within this time frame) how long the user in question's kick should last. Please mention to the user how long their kick will last.

### Ban Actions&#x20;
