Community & Server Rules
Rules Apply To All Servers
Our servers share similar rules sets, if there are game specific rules they will be also listed on this page.
Community Rules
Respect, Integrity, Equality, and Equity
At Rogue Soldiers, we believe in respect, integrity, equality, and fairness for everyone in our community. We may take any action necessary, including removal from the community, to maintain an environment that reflects those values.
Safe and Inclusive Environment
Rogue Soldiers is committed to providing a positive, inclusive, and respectful environment for all members. Any form of hate speech, trolling, toxicity, discrimination, or bigotry is strictly prohibited. Political discussions are not allowed within our services in order to keep the community neutral and focused on gaming and collaboration.
Advertising, Promotion, and Recruitment
Advertising, self-promotion, solicitation, or recruitment is not permitted within Rogue Soldiers services without prior approval from the Leadership Team. This includes promoting outside communities, clans, guilds, platoons, Discord servers, organizations, products, services, or social platforms in a disruptive or unsolicited manner. Attempts to recruit members away from Rogue Soldiers may result in moderation action.
Rules Are Not Exhaustive
These rules serve as broad community guidelines and are not meant to cover every possible situation. Additional rules or adjustments may be made as needed depending on the service, event, or circumstances involved. Members of the Leadership Team may use reasonable discretion when interpreting and enforcing these rules in order to protect the community and maintain a positive environment. Attempts to argue, derail, or publicly contest moderation actions may result in additional moderation action.
If you believe a moderation decision was made in error or would like clarification regarding an action taken against your account, concerns should be handled respectfully through the appropriate support or appeal channels rather than through public arguments or disruption.
Access Is a Privilege
Rogue Soldiers is a private community, and access to our services is considered a privilege rather than a guaranteed right. Our spaces are governed by community rules as well as the Terms of Service of the platforms and services connected to them. We support respectful and open discussion, but moderation may occur whenever necessary to maintain a healthy environment for the community.
Respect Our Volunteer Staff
Our community is built and maintained by passionate members who volunteer their time to create a better experience for everyone. The people managing our services are human beings donating their free time to support the community, and they deserve to be treated with respect. Abuse, harassment, or hostility directed at staff will not be tolerated.
Discord Rules
Rule 1: Do Not Spam, Troll, or Intentionally Disrupt Community Communication
Spam and intentionally disruptive behavior are not permitted within our Discord server, voice channels, or community spaces. This includes excessive or repeated messages, emoji spam, reaction spam, unnecessary mentions or pings, soundboard abuse, repetitive media uploads, copy-pasted content, mic spam, or other behavior intended to flood, clutter, interrupt, or derail conversations.
Friendly banter and joking around are part of gaming communities, but excessive trolling, baiting, provoking arguments, attention-seeking behavior, or repeatedly disrupting conversations after being asked to stop is not acceptable. Members are expected to interact in good faith and avoid behavior intended to frustrate, overwhelm, or negatively impact the experience of others.
This rule also applies to voice communication and gameplay environments. Excessive background noise, intentionally talking over others, disruptive soundboards, or interfering with players attempting to coordinate during gameplay may result in moderation action. Members should contribute to a positive and usable communication environment for everyone in the community.
Rule 2: Use Text and Voice Channels for Their Intended Purpose and Respect Gameplay Communication
Help keep the community organized and easy to navigate by using text and voice channels for their intended topics and purposes whenever possible. Keeping discussions reasonably relevant to the channel helps members follow conversations more easily and allows users to quickly find the information, games, or community spaces they are looking for.
Voice channels are flexible and may be used for general conversation and socializing; however, members should remain mindful of players actively using game-focused channels for gameplay communication, strategy, coordination, and teamwork. If a group is actively communicating during a match, unrelated conversations should be moved to another channel out of courtesy and respect for the players involved.
This is especially important in teamwork-heavy, tactical, or extraction-based games where clear communication and situational awareness directly affect gameplay. Respecting active gameplay communication helps create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for everyone participating.
Rule 3: Do Not Abuse Pings, Mentions, or Notifications
Please use mentions, role pings, and notifications responsibly. Excessive, unnecessary, or disruptive use of pings — including repeated mentions, mass mentions, or intentionally spamming notifications — is not permitted.
Members should avoid using pings to harass, pressure, provoke, or demand attention from other users or members of the Leadership Team. Unsolicited or excessive direct messaging related to Rogue Soldiers services may also be considered disruptive behavior.
Role mentions and notification-based features should only be used for their intended purpose and when relevant to the conversation or situation at hand.
Rule 4: Do Not Abuse Support Systems, Tickets, or Staff Resources
Support channels, tickets, reports, and other staff resources exist to help members and maintain the community. Misusing these systems through trolling, spam, false reports, unnecessary ticket creation, or intentionally wasting staff time is not permitted.
Members are expected to communicate honestly and respectfully when interacting with the Leadership Team or requesting support. Repeated abuse of support systems, refusal to cooperate in good faith, or intentionally creating unnecessary workload for volunteers may result in moderation action.
Please remember that all Leadership Team members are volunteers donating their time to support the community and its services.
Rule 5: Report Community Issues Through Rogue Soldiers Support Channels
If you encounter problematic content, rule violations, harassment, or other community-related concerns within our Discord server, please report the issue through our ticket system or in 「🆘」ask-an-admin so the Leadership Team can review and address the situation appropriately.
Members should avoid unnecessarily reporting community content directly to Discord when the issue can reasonably be handled internally through our moderation systems. Allowing our Leadership Team the opportunity to review and resolve issues helps maintain stability within the community and prevents unnecessary platform-level actions that may negatively impact our services or members.
This rule does not apply to emergencies, illegal activity, immediate safety concerns, or situations that require direct platform intervention under Discord’s Terms of Service or Community Guidelines.
Rule 6: Follow Discord Terms of Service and Community Guidelines
All members are expected to follow Discord’s Terms of Service and Community Guidelines while using Rogue Soldiers Discord services.
Content or behavior involving scams, malicious links, account theft, phishing, self-bots, illegal activity, unauthorized account sharing or selling, or other prohibited conduct under Discord policies is not permitted within our community.
Violations of Discord platform policies may result in moderation action within Rogue Soldiers services regardless of whether action has already been taken by Discord itself.

Battlebit: Remastered Rules
Rule 1: Harassment, Hate Speech, and Discriminatory Conduct Are Not Allowed
All players are expected to communicate respectfully with other members of the server and community at all times. Friendly banter and competitive trash talk may happen in gaming environments, but harassment, personal attacks, excessive toxicity, or behavior intended to target, provoke, or degrade other players is not permitted.
Hate speech, discriminatory remarks, slurs, or language targeting individuals or groups based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or other personal characteristics is strictly prohibited.
This rule applies to all forms of communication connected to our server and community, including in-game chat, voice communication, usernames, clan tags, signs, and other player-created content.
Rule 2: Do Not Submit False or Malicious Player Reports
Player reports should be submitted honestly, accurately, and in good faith. Reports are an important tool for helping administrators identify rule violations, cheaters, disruptive behavior, and issues affecting the overall health of the server.
False, misleading, malicious, or intentionally exaggerated reports are not permitted. This includes knowingly providing false information, attempting to misuse the reporting system to target other players, or repeatedly filing reports without legitimate reason.
Players are encouraged to provide as much useful information as possible when submitting a report, including clips, screenshots, timestamps, usernames, or other relevant details whenever available. Abuse of the reporting system may result in moderation action being taken against the reporting player.
Rule 3: Keep Proximity and Squad Voice Clear for Gameplay Communication
Proximity and squad voice channels should primarily be used for clear, relevant communication that supports teamwork, coordination, and overall gameplay. Players are expected to be mindful of others who rely on voice communication for callouts, strategy, and situational awareness.
Music, soundboards, voice changers, memes, or other audio may not be used in a way that disrupts communication or negatively impacts the experience of other players. Excessive mic spam, loud background noise, or intentionally disruptive audio is not permitted.
Low-volume music or lighthearted audio that does not interfere with gameplay is generally acceptable; however, if other players in the squad or nearby voice communication ask for the volume to be lowered or turned off, those requests should be respected.
Players participating in active combat, squad coordination, vehicle operation, or other teamwork-heavy gameplay should always be given priority for clear communication.

Bans issued from the Discord server itself are not handled through this appeal process and are not eligible for appeal here.
You are expected to follow all community standards during the appeal process. Disruptive, abusive, or inappropriate behavior may result in your ban being extended or made permanent.
Do not discuss your ban publicly or outside of your appeal ticket. Rogue Soldiers is not obligated to provide evidence related to any ban, either to the user or to third parties, upon request.
Bans are not shared between communities without supporting evidence, such as logs, screenshots, video recordings, or similar verifiable records.

• Who you are reporting
• Where the incident happened
• What happened
• Any screenshots, clips, logs, or other evidence
• Any relevant usernames, Steam IDs, Discord IDs, or other identifiers
A ticket will be created and reviewed by the appropriate leadership team. Reports involving staff may be escalated to Senior Admins or uninvolved leadership members if needed.
Reports must be made honestly and in good faith. False reports, harassment, misleading information, retaliation, or public drama about an active report may result in disciplinary action.
Do not discuss active reports publicly or outside of your report ticket. Rogue Soldiers is not obligated to provide internal evidence, staff discussions, investigation notes, or disciplinary details to the reporting user, the reported user, or third parties upon request.
