Streaming is welcomed to showcase roleplay on ImpulseRP but must never be used to gain unfair advantages or violate immersion. Using OOC sources, including streams, to influence in-character decisions is considered metagaming and will result in severe penalties.
20.1 – STREAM SNIPING & OOC INTEL USAGE
Tier 5 Violation
Using information from another player’s stream (locations, plans, or actions) to guide your character’s behavior is forbidden.
Even if staff cannot confirm exactly how the information was obtained, proof of its use is enough for punishment.
Penalty Escalation:
1st Offense: 2-week ban
2nd Offense: Permanent ban + loss of all assets
20.2 – BRINGING OOC INFORMATION INTO ROLEPLAY
Tier 5 Violation
Information from Discord DMs, private calls, or other OOC channels cannot be used in roleplay.
Players must be able to prove the knowledge was acquired in-character if questioned.
Violations are treated as severe metagaming and punished accordingly.
