General Rules for The Call Of Duty 4 Servers:

It is extremely important that you are aware of these rules as these are a cornerstone to our Tactical Gamer standards.

Bunny-hopping:
Bunny-hopping is defined as jumping to avoid fire, around corners / in front of enemy and jumping over claymores to mitigate damage. We are aware of certain in-game key bindings that may accidentally make players bunny-hop, if you find yourself doing this, please edit your key bindings where this can be minimized. Jumping and climbing over objects while under fire is not considered bunny-hopping.


Play the objective / Lone Wolfing:
Your objective is NOT to get as many kills as you can but to help your team defend or plant the bomb, capture or defend HQ and Domination Checkpoints. Players not doing so are considered to be Lone Wolfing. Lone Wolfing is defined as having total disregard for your team and objective at hand and focused on eliminating enemy forces.
Spawn Rushing is considered a Lone Wolf tactic and is not allowed. Spawn Rushing is where players immediately go engage enemy players near their spawn area. Shooting into an enemy spawn point is not allowed as well; however, if the enemy is shooting from their spawn, then they can be engaged.


Attackers:
The role of an attacker is to attack an area of interest and fulfill their primary in-game objective. Attackers may use any and all routes available to them to accomplish the mission. This can include flanking through the defenders spawn to reach the objective.


Defender Roles:
Defenders are to defend their objective and its immediate choke-point entryways. Defenders are not to go on hunting parties and aggressively eliminate the enemy; defenders can take any FLANKING route they like to a different objective to reinforce once:

• It's clear that the bomb is down near that objective
• Most or all the defenders there are dead
• The bomb has been planted.

The primary purpose of this is to reduce the amount of lone wolfing and to maintain consistent team-play.

Bomb Carrier:
The bomb carrier is the squad leader. He will give the commands to the rest of the squad as to which objective, deployment of forces etc... Support the squad leader as part of the team.


Team Killing (TKs):
In the heat of battle friendly fire occurs it is a part of life and all online games, however, intentional TKs or excessive TKs are not acceptable behavior on TG servers. Everyone enjoys playing every round and getting TK is one way to ruin that experience. In addition to limiting the TKs in the game ensure you are fully aware of fields of fire, your team's location, your team's uniforms. In Call of Duty 4 the Perk: Martyrdom is not conducive to Team play and sets an inherent risk to all players on that team. Martyrdom is not allowed as a perk.


VOIP:
VOIP is a staple for effective teamwork and is highly recommended, but optional, although the ability to communicate is required, you are required to have voice enabled. Bomb Carriers in S&D MUST have a functioning mic and communicate with their team. Using Team Chat is an alternative to VOIP (except for bomb carriers). Players not communicating with their team may be considered Lone Wolfing.


Grenade spam and appropriate use of suppressive fire:
The use of throwing Frag Grenades/C-4/UAV/Air-strikes/Choppers are prohibited before the first 20 seconds of the round. This means, no grenade launchers and RPG's as well. Flash-bangs, Stun grenades and Smoke canisters are exempt from this rule. Frag grenades and Grenade Launchers can only be used if there is a high probability of enemy. Random, blind use of these are prohibited. Blind grenades are defined as randomly tossing into locations where no threats have been identified or into locations to clear but failing to following the grenade into that location. Using UAV to spot threats is an acceptable use for throwing grenades due to the indicator icon on the mini map.

Wall Spam
Wall spamming is defined as random, "Spraying" gunfire into walls and other easily penetrable objects with small-arms fire looking for hit indicators and is not allowed. Using suppressive fire is. A team can use suppressive fire if needed to allow the movement of the rest of their squad. If an enemy is known to be hiding behind a wall or object, then the player is allowed to shoot through the wall/object. THE MOUNTED MACHINE GUNS DO NOT APPLY TO THIS RULE, IT IS A SUPPRESSIVE FIRE WEAPON.


Firing into smoke:
Firing into smoke is allowed and after the first 20 seconds grenades can be used to clear out the smoked areas.

Spawn Camping:

Spawn camping is strictly forbidden. Firing into the spawn area is considered spawn camping. The only time it will be allowed is when the team starts to shoot from their spawn, ie. sniper. If a team uses a sniper and he is firing from his spawn then the spawn area is free game.


What infractions can an admin kick/ban for?

Admins WILL take whatever action they deem necessary to maintain the high standards we demand on our servers. Depending on severity, the COD4 admin team will follow:

1. Warning
2. Kick with time
3. Kick with more time
4. Ban

ALL PLAYERS WILL BE ISSUED WARNINGS REGARDLESS OF THEIR STATUS.

Be advised that players wearing the TG tag are assumed to have read our rules and are held to a higher standard.

If an instance occurs where there happens to be a player breaking the rules on the server:

And an admin isn't available to deal with them! If by chance an admin is not immediately available to assist you with an issue, please file a report HERE.
