# Punishments

## Overview

This page outlines both **in-game** and **Discord punishments** within FSRP.

These rules are subject to change at any time. If you are unsure about a rule or its punishment, contact **IA+ (Internal Affairs or above)**.

Staff are expected to use **common sense and professional judgement** at all times.

***

## Authority

* **IA+** may issue Discord timeouts/mutes when required, including off-duty situations.
* **MGMT+** are the only ranks permitted to issue Discord bans. All bans must be supported with evidence and properly escalated.
