Nova Sector policies

Nova Sector Main should be treated as a roleplay-first server, that means the expectation is that you should be atleast trying to put roleplay at the forefront, this doesn't mean you have to do nothing but emotes, but that you shouldn't acting as a general detractor from the roleplaying environment. Be respectful of others.

Nova Sector policies

Departmental Policies

Cargo Policy

Department Standards: The Quartermaster can lay out additional standards for the department, within reason.

  • Orders, legal or illegal are an IC issue, unless breaking another rule. (see: cargo setting up their own SM.)
  • The Cargo/Supply department are not formal employees of NT, they are temporary-contractors from the FTU, filling in for the Cargo Department.
  • As cargo, you shouldn't be refusing orders without a justifying IC reason.
  • Cargo is still under Corporate Regulations while on NT Property.
Medical Policy

Department Standards: The CMO can lay out additional standards for the department, within reason.

  • Revival should only take place outside of medical under emergency conditions where transport to medical or a medical site is infeasible. Revivals should take place in sites designated by the CMO or Station Blueprints.
  • Except with admin permission, only beneficial viruses may be produced and intentionally released. Viruses should be clearly-labeled (ex. with symptoms, cures, and slime-safeness). Airborne/touch-spread viruses may only be released with the Chief Medical Officer, Captain, or Acting Captain approval. The virus must not cause harm to specific races or groups if self-spreading.


Command Policy

As a member of command, you are held to a higher roleplay standard. As such, instances of LRP and violations of the character guidelines will be treated more severely.

General guidelines for all command positions are as follows:

  • You should be competent with your department and aware of its relevant policy.
  • Command equipment and clothing is to only be given as necessitated.
  • Access should not be given out for frivolous reasons.
  • Do not change your job title outside of the titles provided.
  • Access changes are not to be used to promote players to veteran-only roles.

Who Can Demote?

  • All heads can demote subordinates within their own department. In the absence of a Head of Staff, the Captain may demote a member of the department.
  • The captain has the power to demote a head.

Acting Captain

  • For information regarding the acting Captain position, check the Captain job page.
