Guidelines

The rules for playing fairly, respecting others, and keeping the community enjoyable.

These guidelines combine the community rules and staff announcements, including content creator requirements.

1. Community conduct

1.1 | Respect other members

Treat everyone with respect. Toxicity, threats, harassment, targeted mockery, and deliberately provoking arguments are not allowed. Do not bring grudges or drama from other games or communities into Bungee Gum.

1.2 | No witch-hunting

Do not organize, encourage, or participate in targeted harassment of an individual or group. This includes repeatedly mocking someone over their gameplay, death, appearance, beliefs, or other personal traits. Witch-hunting bans issued from July 20, 2026 onward cannot be appealed; earlier bans remain appealable.

1.3 | No hate speech

Discriminatory statements, slurs, and hateful media are prohibited, including content targeting race, gender, or sexual orientation. This includes the R-slur.

1.4 | Keep the community safe for work

Sexual harassment, unwanted suggestive comments, NSFW content, suggestive clothing or actions, and erotic roleplay are prohibited, both in and out of lore. Do not create or distribute graphic or NSFW edits of game NPCs, even outside the game Discord. These violations can result in removal or a ban.

1.5 | Avoid harmful topics and rumors

Do not make jokes or discuss sensitive topics in ways that cause discomfort or conflict. Do not spread unverified rumors, excessive doom-posting, or uninformed claims about another player’s lore. This also applies in Bungee Gum faction servers. Send constructive lore feedback privately to Head Lore.

1.6 | Follow staff directions

Stop when instructed by staff. Do not disregard directions or argue to continue the behavior. Keep staff cases and ongoing ban discussions out of general chat; raise concerns through a ticket in the support server.

1.7 | Use channels properly

Keep conversation and commands in their designated channels. Avoid disruptive microphone noise in voice chat. Do not flood chat with repeated content, oversized messages, or five or more consecutive messages in quick succession. The posted spam rule excludes bot-spam and memes channels; other conduct rules still apply. AI-generated spam is also prohibited.

1.8 | No unauthorized advertising

Do not advertise outside communities or recruit from this community without permission. Ordinary discussion about other games is allowed.

2. Account safety & fair play

2.1 | No malicious activity

Do not share private information without consent, blackmail, fabricate screenshots, dox, or swat others. Malicious activity can result in community removal and a Discord ban.

2.2 | No exploits or bug abuse

Do not use scripts, third-party tools, glitches, or bugs to gain an advantage. Bug abuse can lead to a permanent ban. Report unusual stats, knowingly exceeding a cap without the proper BP, and mistakes made while staff are setting your character. Keeping an unreported advantage can lead to removal or an unappealable punishment.

2.3 | Do not evade bans or share accounts

Do not use alternate Roblox or Discord accounts to bypass a ban. Account sharing is prohibited. You are responsible for activity performed on your account.

2.4 | No scamming or real-money trading

Scamming or attempted scamming can result in removal and a Discord ban. Selling or trading game items or jenni for USD is prohibited and results in a permanent game blacklist for both parties.

2.5 | Respect assets and positions of trust

Stealing or copying game assets results in a permanent ban and community blacklist. Do not abuse a staff role or other position of power for an unfair benefit to yourself or others.

3. Lore & roleplay

3.1 | Keep out-of-lore knowledge out of roleplay

Do not use out-of-lore (OOL) information to gain an in-lore advantage. This includes knowledge from a previous character’s life, checking the server list during a PD, and using Discord ranks to identify a character’s hidden role or affiliation.

3.2 | Respect hidden information and identities

Do not leak another player’s lore, even if you do not personally use it. Do not use Vencord or similar access to discover or share information from hidden channels, custom servers, or tickets; the announced penalty is a permanent ban. A visible name tag does not justify identifying someone whose identity is concealed by a mask, cloak, or other appropriate attire. Players must also dress appropriately to conceal their identity.

3.3 | Do not share hidden incident clips

Do not post or distribute clips of hidden deaths, robberies, kidnappings, or other incidents that others should not see. The latest announcement states a permanent-ban penalty and makes an exception for incidents being streamed on Twitch. Sharing a clip outside the community server does not make it acceptable.

3.4 | Stay in character

Do not break immersion, randomly attack without an in-lore reason, grief, or perform sudden out-of-character actions (“stimming”), including during PDs and in lore chat. Joke reactions to serious Discord lore messages are also punishable.

3.5 | Do not powergame or exploit loopholes

Do not force actions or outcomes on other players, claim powers or abilities you do not possess, ignore roleplay rules, or intentionally exploit gaps in rules to gain an advantage or avoid consequences.

3.6 | Respect Lore Team decisions

Do not seek another Lore Team member’s approval after a request has been denied. Lore oversight belongs to the Lore Team; avoid pocketwatching other players or spreading uninformed concern about their lore.

3.7 | No romantic or sexual roleplay

Characters may not date or engage in romantic scenarios, sexually descriptive actions, or erotic roleplay.

3.8 | Do not misleadingly downplay abilities

Do not dismiss a strong ability as weak to mislead others or gatekeep information. If you do not want to share information, say nothing instead.

4. Gameplay & event rules

4.1 | Respect friendly spars

Do not rob or grip knocked players in training or sparring areas, especially after presenting the fight as a friendly 1v1. Violations can result in removal or other punishment.

4.2 | Valuables can create robbery incentive

Flaunting valuable items or unexpectedly announcing that you have major valuables can provide an in-lore incentive for robbery.

4.3 | Backup calls are shared and limited

PDs have limited backup calls. During world events or private PDs, the host may allow a call opportunity. Calling friends or a faction uses the shared opportunity for everyone; for example, if faction members arrive, another player may no longer be able to call IPA.

5. Enforcement & appeals

5.1 | Rules apply even if you have not read them

Violations can result in warnings, mutes, temporary bans, permanent bans, removal, or blacklisting, depending on the rule and severity. Serious violations receive the harshest penalties. Follow Discord’s Terms of Service as well as these community rules.

5.2 | Repeated violations escalate

After three minor offenses, the next offense may be treated as moderate or major on a case-by-case basis.

5.3 | Appeal waiting periods

Permanent bans may generally be appealed after two weeks; temporary bans after three days. These waiting periods do not override unappealable punishments, including witch-hunting bans issued from July 20, 2026 onward. Use the support server for case concerns.

6. Content creator guidelines

Requirements and benefits for Bungee Gum content creators.

6.1 | YouTube requirements

No minimum subscriber count is required, but your videos should receive consistent views. Players who have been waved must have published at least 3–4 videos about the project.

6.2 | Twitch requirements

6.3 | TikTok requirements

6.5 | Content creator benefits

  • Unlimited waves.
  • A three-day cooldown after wiping.
