Crackshooting and Cbugging
Like at all times while RPing you can't do any of these bugs, it isn't any different in point. Point always lasts to long because people are allowed to CS, meaning they can kill whoever is capping faster and just rape. It also isn't fair for those that can't do it.

Doublecapping, Lagcapping, Pingspiking
Doublecapping is when 2+ members from same family use /capture at the same second. (when the red message pops up), it can be ignored if they mistakenly do it and one of the member moves away.
((If 2 or more points are active in the same time, this needs to be reported to the administrators to fix it, changing the time of the points.))
•Lagcapping is when you have very high ping ((500+)) or very low fps making it hard to hit them (like Keltin Blaze).
You also may not turn on any 3rd client program that makes your ping rise (or start downloading torrents, etc.) so you have an advantage at point.
•Pingspiking is when a player attends an active point with high ping 500 +
Punishments:

Lag capping /ping spiking (Intentional or unintentional)
• Leave point (warning)
• warned twice ( Prison 90 minutes)
• (If more than 2+)Strike

About inviting and uninviting gang members

In order to invite a player into gang, he has to properly be introduced to the gang via roleplay. If the gang members fail to do so, the gang will be punished according to mass recruiting rule ( depending on the gang type, the player has to be given gang colors/hired on a contract/whatever suits your gang the most, but it still has to be properly done ). If the player is below level 5, you also have to "OOC test" the player, AKA asking the player for the definitions of some rules, asking the player for at least six of them will do.

If a rank 5+ kicks out a member, he will either stay out for good until being properly invited into the gang again or then the rank 5 will be prisoned for abusing /adjust uninvite ( 60 minutes of prison + strike ). This applies to IC uninviting as well as just using /adjust uninvite, despite of the reason.
