ARK ASA PVP.
SERVER POLICY.

Dark Master is a PvP cluster. Raiding, attacking, defending, losing and winning are all part of the regular gameplay.

The following, in particular, are permitted:

• standard PvP raids
• Breaking through the opposition’s defence
• Destruction of structures necessary for penetration
• Killing defence dinosaurs that are actively engaged
• Looting items and resources
• Destroying essential spawn points whilst a raid is in progress

PvP can be tough and competitive. However, unnecessary griefing without a valid PvP purpose is prohibited.

The following, in particular, are prohibited:

• Pointless full wipe with no plausible PvP reason
• Permanent blocking of a base that has already been raided
• deliberately preventing reconstruction without active conflict
• unnecessary killing of passive dinosaurs for no raid-related purpose
• Destroy solely to inflict maximum damage on another tribe
• Constant harassment of a tribe that has already been defeated

A full wipe is not automatically a breach of the rules.

The Dark Master Team assesses the entire course of the raid and the circumstances of the individual case.

FOBs are permitted as long as they are actively used for PvP or a raid.

An FOB must, at the latest, 24 hours after the end of active use be removed.

FOBs must not be used as permanent additional bases or long-term depots.

FOBs that have not been removed or are permanently inactive may be deleted by the Dark Master Team.

A player may be held captive for a maximum of 6 hours permitted.

The official timer starts for the victim as soon as a ticket has been opened with the Dark Master Team.

Once the maximum time has elapsed, the player must be released.

It is prohibited to immediately re-detain a person with the aim of circumventing the time limit.

White Flag protection applies only if it has been officially confirmed by the Dark Master Team.

Protected tribes must not:

• to be raided
• be deliberately provoked
• to be constantly trolled
• be blocked
• be deliberately prevented from rebuilding

Whilst under protection, a protected tribe may not initiate any offensive PvP or raid actions itself.

Anyone who abuses this protection will lose it immediately and may also face further sanctions.
