    TTT Server Policies

    • On Rooftops, it is only KoS-able to break bridges when an individual is standing on the bridge, or about to walk onto the bridge. Killing someone for breaking bridges without following this policy will be treated as RDM

    • When an individual announces a “Live Check”, they are not allowed to KoS those who did not respond. Only a “Live Check or KoS” allows for KoS’ing those who do not respond.

    • Killing someone after they gave you permission is still KoS-able but will only be considered RDM in select cases, for instance, if an individual stated “If you kill me, you’re just going to see that I’m innocent” and is then killed, that can be considered, at the discretion of the admins, as RDM.

    • Turning off the lights, no matter the map, is not KoS-able, ever.

    • Should an individual be door blocking, they may be killed after having been given 3 warnings with sufficient time between them. Repeatedly ignoring this policy and killing people without warning will be treated as RDM

    • The abuse of detective weapons includes, tasing individuals without valid purpose, freezing individuals without a valid purpose, shooting individuals with the Grenadier without valid purpose, and so on. Abusing detective weapons is strictly against the rules. The detective can be KOS’ed for abusing his weapons and he may be slain if the abuse continues.

    • Charging up the electric axe on rooftops is a KoS-able offense. Killing people with it will be treated as prop-killing and will result in an autoslay being added to the killer.

    • Traitors can false KoS but only if there is a slight reason, such as, being in a firefight with them. They may not, however, KoS people without any reason. Repeatedly ignoring this policy will be treated as False KoSing and will result in a slay.

    • Arming C4 as an innocent is KOS-able, and if it kills people add one slay for next round.

    • It is the detective's discretion whether keeping bodies with DNA away from him is KoS-able or not.(This includes putting the body in the melon machine on Plaza)

    • Refusing to test is not KoS-able on any map.

    • Priming the doors on Airbus is not KoS-able.

    • Innocents must declare weapons they pick up from Traitors/Detectives, if they fail to do so they may be KoS’ed.

    • Every round it is a detective's choice whether proven people or anyone can get health from their health station.

    • Every round it is a detective's choice if it is KoS-able to destroy a detective’s health station. (It will default as KoS-able to destroy the health station)

    • Shooting/Throwing traitor weapons such as a Sawblade Launcher or Harpoon through walls/doors will result in a slay.

    • Using a discombobulator on a high elevation is KoS-able, and is counted as RDM if it kills anyone.

    • Destroying the tester is not KoS-able on any map.(This includes the gold block on Minecraft)

    • Placing a prop at the bottom of the teleporter entrance on 67th way is treated as prop-killing

    • Arming and placing the mines on White House is KoS-able.
    TTT Server Rules

    • RDM or Random Death Match has 3 different types, incidental, accidental, and intentional. Incidental RDM is what we call situations such as the following; A player is falsely KoS’ed and you kill them. This would be the fault of the KoSing individual.

      • Three or more RDMs in a short period of time will be punished with a permanent ban.
