Congratulations on becoming a Moderator on Zarp's SSRP Server! You will now have powers that will stop rulebreakers right in their tracks! Let's begin. The first step in learning to use your powers is to learn all the commands, which I have listed below.
COMMANDS:
/tp (Name or SteamID): Use this to teleport yourself to the place your reticle is on your screen. (Fall damage does apply if you TP to a high place and fall) Also use this to teleport any player to your reticle also.
/warn (Name or steamID): Use this to warn players for their bad actions. Use this for RDM, NLR, RDA, Propclimb/PropSurf/PropKill ect.
/kick: Use this for the Propspammers or the Propblockers who will not remove props, or Mass RDM'ers if they will not stop. If someone is mass RDM'ing, you can just warn them 3 times until they get kicked, and if they rejoin and RDM again, they will be banned for one hour, in which time you can message an admin on Steam to have the RDM'er banned.
(In TAB PLAYER MENU) “Unban from job”: Use this to unban people from jobs if they were RDM’d as mayor, or randomly demoted as a job.
/freeze (Name or SteamID): Use this command to freeze a player if they are proppushing or on an RDM’ing spree. Don’t forget to /unfreeze them once you are done!
/unfreeze (Name or SteamID): Use this command to unfreeze a player who has been frozen.
/back (Name or SteamID): use this to send any player back to their original position from where you teleported them. (You can use this on yourself also) **IN TAB MENU** Click on “Back” > “Spawn” to send them back to spawn. This will not kill them, they will not lose any guns in the process.
/bring (Name or SteamID): Brings the player to your close vicinity.
/goto (Name or SteamID): Brings you to the player, instead of them coming to you.
/slay (Name or SteamID): Kills the target, making them lose any weapons on them. This can be useful alternative for /warn if you don't feel as if they deserve a warning. If you use /slay, you can decide if NLR still applies for the player.
Now, let's talk about your duties as a Moderator. You can now press F1, and pull up a new menu! This new menu will show you all the F1s that players have created! Right Click on one of them, and then click on "Handle This F1", and after that, you can either type in /goto Player | /tp player | or Right Click on the F1 again and click on "Bring" or "Goto". I usually use Goto, just in case they are in a raid or something, in which it can change the tide of an RP situation.
Next thing, is Abuse. Now I'm sure that you have seen report abuses before on the forums, and I'll give you a couple tips on what to do to not have one on the forums with your name on it.
1. Don't use TP in RP situations.
This can make people upset, because they may not be able to shoot you, or arrest you since you have used your moderator powers to escape from a RolePlay situation. If you accidentally do this, make sure to apologize in OOC or in PM. If they still go on ahead and make a Report Abuse, just say that you apologized for it, and that it was a mistake.
2. Don't make up your own rules.
We can guess where this came up from, but seriously. Don't make up your own rules. There are some unwritten rules that we abide by, but don't make up some ridiculous rule... For Example "Only Staff members can Scam, not Regular Players."
Please, just don't do that.
I hope that my tips will help you out in the field. Now go get 'em, tiger!
