You can have a MAXIMUM of 15 people in your gang. Minimum of 3 to start a gang.
Any interactions you have still only allows a maximum of 6 people to be involved from each side. You cannot team up with another gang and have 6+6 vs 6 other gang members.
3. If you are being dumped out of your gang, you are to forget all involvement with the members, and their actions (Example: If someone role-plays you getting dumped out, they take you to the dock and have a big theatrical production, and make it clear you are being "killed off" or removed from the gang, then you need to actually RP it out and forget everything about it. THIS MEANS, you no longer know those people, what they do, who they roll with, what business they are a part of, or anything like that. The removal of gang members needs to be role-played out with a great level of detail, and both sides need to understand what is taking place.
4.The same rule applies to robbing stores, banks, etc. You are not allowed to chain rob stores or banks in the same period. You must wait for 1-2 hours (IRL hours) this also means you can't have your friend or partner take a turn to go rob after you just did!
5. If you die in gang beef you’re DONE for the day (1 hour) (meaning in IRL time) which means no more gang RP for that day. Your gang RP timer restarts the next day. This means, during this cooldown time (in game time) you MUST make a conscious effort to stay away from your gang and other gangs, especially in times of beef. (If you know people are coming after your gang or your gang is going after others do not participate in any aspect)
6. If you want to leave a gang you HAVE to make a ticket to be removed off your current gang’s roster. After being removed you must WAIT at least 2 days to join a new one. Afterwards you will have to talk to your future gang boss so they can make a ticket for you to be added onto their roster. If you are kicked out of a gang, you will still need to wait 4 days and the gang boss needs to make a ticket for the person who was kicked to be removed off the roster. (remember it was your choice to join that gang originally)
7. Any gang member switching colors or impersonating any other gangs, doctors or lawmen will be removed out of the gang life indefinitely (and possibly additional punishment for power-gaming)
8. After a robbery or killing of any players you cannot change any clothing or change your character for 1 hour. You cannot use fast travel after any scene. Gives the lawmen a chance to RP to find you
9. Gangs are allowed to hire doctors on the side to help them with their gun wounds etc. but this means you can’t use the alert doc system; you would have to telegram them to come to your spot. And remember you can’t kill or rob a doctor.
10. Gang/Family leaders are expected to ensure that their members comply with the server's rules
11. Each gang leader is required to keep the government monitored roster list up to date at all times. (The 15-member limit is subject to change.)
12. As a gang leader or criminal of a gang/family, you are not allowed to pan handle every criminal or gang you see come into this server. that fall under harassment and we do not tolerate that. Now if they are in your territory then by all means protect your land etc.
13. VAN HORN IS NOT OWNED BY ANY GANGS!!!!!!!!
14. Make sure to have some sort of recording software especially if you are robbing stores, banks, forts and robbing players.
