Allowed Use of Grab

  • Freeing players who are clearly stuck (in walls, teammates, doors, elevators, etc.)

  • Unblocking spawn points at the beginning of the round

  • Fixing broken map triggers or elevator issues that prevent normal progress

  • During officially approved fun rounds or special events (must be announced and agreed upon by staff)

Forbidden Use of Grab

  • Do NOT grab zombies unless they are stuck. Never use grab to delay infection or protect humans.

  • Do NOT grab humans to help them win, skip map sections, reach weapons, or avoid zombies.

  • Do not use grab during combat, boss fights, or while players are being chased or fighting.

  • Do not troll players with grab (throwing, holding mid-air, spinning, etc.)

  • Do NOT grab other admins, even as a joke.

  • Do not use grab as a punishment tool. Use proper commands like slap, slay, gag, kick, or ban.

  • Do not grab players without warning (unless the situation is urgent).

  • Do not use grab to hold players in place or block other players.

Additional Grab Rules

  • Do not use grab to rush the round or move slow players forward.

  • Do not use grab to help players complete map objectives (buttons, escape points, weapon zones).

  • Do not grab players during boss events or scripted map sequences.

  • Do not block access to doors, elevators, or paths by placing another player in the way.

  • Do not grab players during the initial infection countdown unless stuck.

  • Do not use grab to show off or demonstrate your admin powers.

  • Do not teleport players across the map using grab. It is not a movement tool.

  • Never help friends or clanmates unfairly — this is favoritism and abuse.

  • Respect grab-restricted areas on specific maps that are unstable or scripted.

  • Do not interfere with another admin using grab unless they are clearly abusing.

  • If the server has logs, all grab activity must be justifiable upon request.

  • Treat all players equally. Do not help or ignore based on personal opinion.

  • Follow the admin hierarchy. When unsure, ask a higher-level admin.

  • Be professional. Grab reflects your position — use it responsibly.

Example Situations

  1. Human stuck in a wall – Allowed. Use grab to free them quickly.

  2. Zombie stuck in a glitch – Allowed only if fully stuck.

  3. Grabbing zombie to prevent infection – Not allowed. Unfair use.

  4. Moving human closer to the escape zone – Not allowed. Major abuse.

  5. Grabbing another admin “for fun” – Not allowed. Unprofessional.

  6. Using grab during a fun round with approval – Allowed. Must be announced.

Punishment for Grab Abuse

  • Grabbing without valid reason – First: warning. Repeat: temporary loss of rights.

  • Using grab to troll or play around – First: warning. Repeat: demotion or temp ban.

  • Helping friends/clan unfairly – First: rights suspended. Repeat: permanent removal.

  • Ignoring grab rules repeatedly – Permanent removal and possible server ban.
