Arena rules
Version of 25 October 2026
FH Arena is one shared sky. These rules keep it enjoyable for everyone — veterans and first-timers alike.
1. Respect
- No insults, harassment, threats or discrimination — in the radio, in callsigns or anywhere else in the game.
- No hate symbols, no glorification of Nazism or of any war crimes. History is the setting, not a cause.
- No spam or flooding in the radio.
2. Callsigns
- A callsign must not be offensive and must not imitate another player or the server staff.
- A callsign is your login and cannot be changed. An unacceptable callsign may be blocked.
3. Fair play
- No cheats, modified game files, automation or tools that give an advantage over other players.
- Found a bug that gives an advantage? Report it instead of using it: fharena@googlegroups.com.
- Do not try to overload or break the server, and do not use extra accounts to dodge a ban.
4. Friendly fire
Shooting your own side is counted automatically and turns into penalty points. Current settings:
| Event | Points |
|---|---|
| Hits on a friendly aircraft (one case = hits within 15 seconds) | 1 |
| Shooting down a friendly aircraft | 5 |
Points fade away evenly over 12 hours. When your points reach:
| Points | What happens |
|---|---|
| 3 | a warning |
| 8 | removed from the arena for 10 minutes |
| 15 | banned for 3 days |
- Accidents happen. If a teammate hit you by mistake, type
.forgivein the radio within 30 minutes — or.forgive callsignfor a specific pilot — and that case is cancelled. - Within 30 km of airfield 1, in the fight against bots where sides don’t matter, friendly fire is not counted.
- The administrators may change these numbers; this page shows the current ones.
5. Moderators
Moderators watch the arena and may warn, mute, remove a player from the arena or ban them — by callsign, account or network address. Serious or repeated violations may lead to a permanent ban.
6. Appeals
If you think a penalty was a mistake, write to fharena@googlegroups.com with your callsign, the date and time, and what happened.
