Civilian SOP

Purpose

The civilians department is the backbone of any FiveM server. We are here to create long lasting, unforgettable, and realistic scenes for all involved. Here in the civilian department, we strive to keep it fun, while remembering it is a game at the end of the day.


1. Character Creation

1.2 Personality of your character must match how they act and how you are RPing.

1.3 You may use NPC characters, but customization will be limited.

1.4 Nudity is strictly prohibited.

1.5 Have your character evolve with experiences they've had.


2. General Expectations

2.1 All roleplay must be high quality and thought out. You are not the only one on the server.

2.2 Keep things semi-realistic.

2.3 If you are not RPing, keep things respectful. If you have an issue, open a ticket in the Civilian Discord or main Discord.


3. Pursuits

3.1 You are not allowed to run just because you want to—you must have a reason.

3.2 If you are PIT maneuvered, your vehicle is considered disabled unless you did not crash or flip.

3.3 If you hit an immovable object, your vehicle is totaled. You must end the vehicle pursuit but may continue on foot.

4.3 See weapon tier list below.

7.2 Comply with first responders.

7.3 Follow EMS/Fire instructions.


8. Skybox Communication

8.1 Skybox /me is only for scene communication.

8.2 Use /ooc for out-of-character communication. Do not cause drama.


9. In Character Communication

9.1 Must have a working microphone.

9.2 Must speak and understand English clearly.

9.3 Must remain appropriate at all times.

10.4 NITRP (No Intent To RP)

10.5 Powergaming (Forcing outcomes)

10.6 Metagaming (Using outside information in RP)

10.7 Combat logging

10.8 Cop baiting

10.9 Racist, sexist, or derogatory language (racism = instant ban)


11. Scene Management

11.1 Do not interrupt scenes without valid reason.

11.2 Allow time for responders.

11.3 Do not overcrowd scenes.

11.4 Use /prioreq when required.


12. Final Notes

The civilian department is essential to Praxis Roleplay. High quality RP creates better experiences for everyone. Be creative, immersive, and respectful at all times.
