City Rules — Passion Community
Staff may issue cards/penalties for any rule if deemed appropriate — based on frequency, severity, and staff discretion.
Rules for Buying/Selling In-Game Items with Real Money
To maintain order within the server community, the team has established the following rules regarding the purchase/sale of items, property, or in-game currency using real money:
1. Prohibition in Server Public Spaces
- No advertising real-money trades in covered areas: Players are strictly prohibited from posting buy/sell offers or typing messages that imply real-money transactions in any public server space.
- Covered areas include: In-game chat channels, in-game public announcement systems (e.g., in-game Twitter/phone announcements), and the main country Discord.
Penalty: At the discretion of the Staff Admin team
[All Staff Admin decisions are final]
2. Policy for Out-of-Platform Trading
- The team is not involved in external transactions: Posting buy/sell offers through external platforms unrelated to the server (e.g., general Facebook groups, other Discords, or private chats) is at the player's discretion.
- Players assume all risk themselves: In cases of fraud, scamming, or being cheated during real-money transactions outside the platform, the team will not intervene, will not accept reports, and will not be responsible for any damages in any case.
Note: This rule exists to prevent chaos and fraud within server public spaces. Always verify the credibility of the other party if you decide to trade real money outside the game.
Anti-Fraud Rules within the Server (Scamming Money / Items / Vehicles)
- Fraud is strictly prohibited: Players are not allowed to deceive, scam, or "twist" (defraud) other players' in-game assets in any case — whether in-game money (IC Money), items, or vehicles.
- Covers all breach of agreements: Including in-game trade/exchange agreements that are not honored, tricking someone into transferring money or items then disappearing, or borrowing assets with intent to keep them.
Penalty: Whitelist suspension
[All Staff Admin decisions are final]
Player Protection via Out-of-Platform Media
Passion Community does not support or allow any player to take in-country (IC) events outside the server or harass another person's real life (not the fictional character), especially in ways that may impact the image of the country or service users.
Penalty: Ranges from warning / fine / card or both — at staff discretion.
[ Examples of Violations ]
- Posting/commenting about events using OOC information of roleplaying players — e.g., real name, workplace, etc.
- Private messaging a person's roleplay page or platform (Facebook/TikTok/IG roleplay profiles) with harassing, threatening, insulting, or mocking content toward the user or their real life
- Private messaging a person's real-life pages or platforms with harassing, threatening, insulting, or mocking content
- Posting negative comments about in-country issues on public spaces such as Discord chat rooms, personal Facebook, TikTok, etc.
[ Exemptions / Special Cases ]
Fictional Role Accusations
If allegations are made through any channel using ugly or socially unacceptable content — not just normal back-and-forth banter — such as: racial/ethnic discrimination, sexual harassment, harassment using ugly or intolerable language, threatening to meet or fight in real life
[ Staff may consider this a violation at their discretion. ]
Close Personal Relationships
If the parties involved are family members / friends / acquaintances who knew each other in real life prior, staff will not be responsible. However, if there is a legal dispute, Passion Community is willing to provide all information as required by the court or attorneys.
Distinguishing Real-Life Profiles
- Must not have more roleplay character photos than half of real-life photos
- Profile name must not be the character's roleplay name
- Must have a birth date matching ID card database
- Must have friends or interactions with real-life (non-virtual) content and people
Penalties for Offenders
Penalties
- Fine 💰 200,000 IC
- Yellow Card 🟨 — For private messages with harassing/threatening/insulting/mocking content (no real-life information)
- Orange Card 🟧 — For using ugly or socially unacceptable content (no real-life information)
- Red Card 🟥 — For using real-life information or messaging real-life platforms of the user
- Maximum 🚫 — Permanent ban from the server and possible legal action
Stream Sniping
Stream sniping here means when opposing parties go watch a stream during any ongoing story/RP, whether or not they use any information in IC.
Notes
- Only the channel owner can report stream sniping.
- If it's within your own guild, it will be classified as MG or PG or both.
- If a person not involved in the story passes on information to either side, this also counts as stream sniping.
Penalty: Red Card 🟥
Multi ID
Each user can only have and play one character. Violations include:
- If you have multiple characters/IDs, all except the main ID will be deleted and banned (character reset + ID ban).
- If you have more than 3 characters, your access will be permanently suspended for intentionally exploiting loopholes for personal/group benefit.
- If detected playing someone else's character — for example: If Player A gives their login credentials to Player B during a story and gets caught (or reported with evidence), Player A's character will be reset. If Player B also has a character in the city, they will receive the same punishment.
Exemptions for Multi ID / MG
- If players live in the same household and no story is occurring, others may temporarily assume a role — but must not cause harm to any party.
- If partners/housemates' voices are heard during a story, this will be classified as MG. Players living together must accept this risk and avoid taking advantage of other players.
In Character - IC
Conversations or actions performed in the character's role, unrelated to the player's real life. All speech and actions are those of the in-game character only.
Out Of Character - OOC
Anything outside your character's role — essentially, your real self or game system matters. You cannot combine OOC with IC, from real-life emotions (e.g., hating someone IRL and killing them in-game) to information that benefits you. Players should minimize OOC interactions.
- Exception: When staff/admin/president inquires about out-of-game matters.
- If OOC discussion is necessary, ask other players' permission first and try to talk privately.
Penalty
At the discretion of the Staff Admin team [Staff Admin decisions are final]
Retaliatory Rule-Breaking
If someone breaks a rule against another player, and the victim retaliates by also breaking rules, both parties will receive reduced penalties.
Example:
- Player A toxically insults Player B
- Player B toxically insults Player A back
- Both players will receive reduced penalties at Staff Admin discretion
Character Name
- Players must name their character realistically and consistent with their role.
- Example: If your character is named Carter Williams, an African American, you must also be dark-skinned.
- Players cannot use names of famous people.
- Example: Vin Diesel, Prayut Chan-o-cha
- You may use similar-sounding names.
- Players cannot use derogatory, discriminatory, or disruptive names.
Penalty
Minimum: Warning | Maximum: Yellow Card 🟨 [Staff Admin decisions are final]
Character Customization
- Regular players are not allowed to dress like agency officers. Prohibited items include:

Penalty
Minimum: Warning | Maximum: Yellow Card 🟨 [Staff Admin decisions are final]

- Not separating real life from in-game, or mixing real-life matters with your character
Penalty
At the discretion of the Staff Admin team [Staff Admin decisions are final]
Deathmatch
Killing or harming another player without roleplay justification, with sub-rules as follows:

Mercy Killing: Killing yourself or causing self-harm to gain benefits afterward (e.g., refilling health).
Random Killing: Killing someone with no story, no prior relationship or conflict.

Drive By [ DB ]
Intentionally driving a vehicle into another player to knock them unconscious or cause serious injury for personal benefit, whether intentional or not. This is absolutely prohibited during active roleplay/story.

All three criteria must be met to classify as DB.
