Law Enforcement roles exist to support balanced gameplay and server integrity. Corruption is restricted and controlled, not free-form. Joining or using a department for material gain or mechanical advantage is strictly prohibited.

Prohibited Corruption

The following actions are not allowed under any circumstances:

• Joining a law enforcement department for the purpose of stealing, stockpiling, or funneling equipment, weapons, supplies, or vehicles
• Transferring department issued items to personal use, alternate characters, or external groups
• Using law enforcement access to bypass normal gameplay restrictions
• Sabotaging department systems, logistics, or operations for mechanical gain
• Treating corruption as an excuse for griefing or power abuse

Allowed Forms of Corruption

The following forms of corruption are permitted without prior approval, provided they remain reasonable and do not involve mechanical abuse:

• Spying or informant activity (acting as a mole, leaking information, or reporting to external parties)
• Misleading or lying to department officials to conceal personal or third-party criminal activity
  (e.g. falsifying statements, misreporting events, or withholding information)

These actions must remain information-based, not equipment or system-based.

Admin Approval Required

Any form of corruption outside the allowed list requires explicit admin approval before being attempted, including but not limited to:

• Theft or redistribution of department equipment
• Deliberate evidence tampering beyond verbal dishonesty
• Coordinated internal sabotage
• Long-term or large-scale corruption arcs

Attempting unapproved corruption will be treated as a rule violation.

Enforcement & Consequences

Violations of this rule may result in moderate consequences, including:

• Removal from the department
• Character penalties or role restrictions
• Confiscation of improperly obtained items
• Temporary suspension or further disciplinary action

Severity depends on intent, impact, and repetition.

Final Note

If you are unsure whether a corrupt action is allowed, assume it is not and seek admin approval first.
Law Enforcement corruption should create story and tension, not material advantage.
