The Disciples of the Rusted One (or the DRO for short) is a group dedicated to keeping Urban Dead fun for everyone. It is open to both zombies(as long as they don't have brain rot) and survivors. It was founded by Carrion Jack, a zombie who got tired of seeing other characters making people miserable. "After all," he reasoned "is not the purpose of this game to have fun and enjoy oneself?" continuing this unprecedented stroke of brilliance (for a zombie that is) he continued to think on the subject, wondering why humans would help zombies? After all, the nature of the unliving is to consider all survivors as food sooner or later-these survivors were merely shoving others in front of themselves to prolong their own wretched lives a little longer. Another question sprang to mind and then another, making Carrion Jack the first zombie to ever have a real philosophical epiphany. Eventually, Jack went on to found the DRO to make humans' lives and zombies' empty carnivorous existences everywhere more fulfilling, though they remain just as short and violent as ever.
Policies
The DRO has several tenets that its members are strongly advised follow. Members with more experience are more trusted when it comes to using personal judgement in certain matters (for example, a level 41 character is not really set back if it dies and as such they can be expected to deal with the situation in a more suitable manner).
1) No player killing unless the other player attacks first. We are not bounty hunters but we will protect ourselves. This is a one kill, one retribution system. The DRO does not support Griefing.
2) Zombies should not attack other zombies unless they are both low level and have no other food source available at the time.
3) NO ZERGING, ALT ABUSE, OR ANY OTHER CHEATING! ANY DRO MEMBER FOUND TO BE DOING THESE THINGS WILL RESULT IN THE IMMEDIATE EXECUTION AND BANNING OF ANY MEMBER FOUND TO BE PARTY TO THESE PRACTICES. (Note that having more than one character in a region is perfectly acceptable as long as they do not interact in any way). It is acceptable to possess more than one character that is part of the DRO as long as they do not interact in any way. In other words, if you can't play two characters like they are two comepletely separate entities, then you are cheating. This includes using info gained through one character to aid another. NO EXCEPTIONS.
4) Survivors are not to kill radios or generators, but barricades may occasionally need to be lowered to VS+2 to allow survivors without free running into the building. Otherwise, survivors should not lower barricades.
5) Act in character. Zombies should not work with survivors-they should eat them (An exception is while standing at a revive point which is perfectly acceptable). Survivors should try to kill/revive zombies; they should never spy for them or heal them (other than unintentionally being digested).
6) Cemetaries are Sacred Ground. No killing should take place in a cemetary, with the exception of brain-rotted zombies which are fair game for trying to halt voluntary revivification. Zombies are allowed to attack survivors that are hiding in a cemetary if the survivor in question lacks the skill needed to revive/scan the zombies within (because they are probably there to kill zombies who are waiting to be revived). Zombies that are in massive lines waiting for revivification (lines of 10+ zombies) are allowed to attack each other while waiting for a revive (this insures that they can continue to gain at least a few experience points while waiting to be revived-oftentimes getting revived can take several days of waiting which could otherwise have been spent making progress towards the next level).
7) No brain rotters. The skill brain rot is essentially to piss off revivers, and rotters all too often lurk in cemetaries. Thats just going out of their way to make others miserable.
8) Have fun. With the exception of rule number three, the rules above are general guide lines. We strongly urge you to follow them from day-to-day, but can see the occasional need to break some of them.
Recruitment
Recruitment: For the moment, our numbers are low, so just change the "Group" entry in your profile to read "Disciples of the Rusted One" and add your name and a short description of yourself to the members list below (new members at the bottom please!). Once we have enough members, we will begin using more stringent methods to insure that our members live up to our standards of conduct. Please add "(now recruiting!)" behind the group title, we need all the members we can get. SEE THE DISCUSSION PAGE.

Black List
The blacklist is a list of people to be avoided, or killed on sight in some cases (only individuals who repeatedly kill members of the DRO or members who violate certain tenets will receive a Kill on Sight verdict). These individuals have been found violating certain tenets of the Disciples of the Rusted One. This list is intended to help our members survive, not be used for bounty hunting (though we wouldn't mind too terribly much if it was...).
