Dice and Other Forms of Illicit Gambling

If you choose to play dice or any other similar game with another player you should keep in mind that you are not playing dice with Argonath, but with a random player who may or may not pay you your winnings. Dice is not officially sanctioned by Argonath and Argonath will not take responsibility for any losses you incur while engaged in this type of activity. Players who "scam" you by not paying you your winnings will not be banned or forced to pay you. You and you alone are responsible for your money and Argonath administration will no longer intervene in such matters. If you find yourself the victim of such a scam, you may call the police of take the perpetrator to court, although you should not be surprised if you find the authorities are not actually enthusiastic in helping you. If you're reading this and you think it means you have a green light to seek out new players so you can part them from their money using this method, for your own sake please think again. Argonath will protect new players from the parasites and predators of San Andreas and if you are found to have wilfully scammed a new player in any way you will be exiled to a far away place in the form of a ban. Be warned.

Scamming Illegal Items

It is your own fault, if someone steals your weed or heroin, or weapons in an illegal deal. Growing weed is legalized, however it is advised that you are armed and ready for any person who might steal your weed. When it comes to weed or drugs stealing, the ones responsible are the grower and the thief. You must not report for this, unless someone comes to weed field or heroin spot and kills you for no reason and no role-play involved. Submit a report only if deathmatching takes place. It is also not allowed to camp at weed and heroin fields and shoot anyone at sight.

Usage of /report

1. I reported but admins did not punish / do nothing.
   While we have many trustworthy players, false reports do happen. There for admins have instructions not to act unless they can confirm the report. It means that reports about DM, ramming and carjacking will not always be punished directly. At some times there are 90 players and 4 admins. That means admins have to make a choice in their work. In such times it is possible that they miss a report. Also admins can handle situations by talking to the reported player. In that case you might not see the punishment. Just because you do not see a result does not mean there was no reaction.
   
   
2. I reported 5 times and I get a warning ???
   If you report one incident 5 times, you are spamming admin chat.
   
   
3. I reported the guy who jacked me after 5 minutes and get a warning?
   When admins see a report they spectate the players. If someone is far away, the report is seen as false report.
   
   
4. I tell that sometimes report gets no reaction and I get kicked/warned???
   More than half of the admin work is done on reports. If players see people complain that reports do not work, they might not use it when they should. If admins do not get reports, people will start complain admins are not active in handling situations. Admins are not psychic and can not see all players at the same time. If we allow complaints on reports not working, the result can be that rule breakers get a lot of chances, and the quality of the server goes down. We see it as our duty to protect the server from those who like to disturb it by complaining.

Mod Usage

In the unban request topics we have recently found a number of people that have car mods installed, many of them use SAMI (San Andreas Mod Installer). Please note that it is allowed to use mods only on the condition that they do not change anything in the handling of SA-MP. Several mod installers has the ability to change the handling and properties of cars and other objects, but do not use these under any circumstances. Changed handling will look to other players as using cheats, and you will be banned for that, the ban will be justified and fair. If you use a modded SA-MP, be very sure that the mods influence appearance only and not anything else. When you doubt, remove the mods. If you want to use a modded SA:MP for single player or special things like movies, make a clean installation without mods to play normal and use the modded only on special servers like a movie server.
