The City Watch is a 22nd endorsed group with special powers on the server. They are there to uphold the law, fighting the brigands and criminals who so cruelly opress the people of our fine city. The idea behind this group is to change the way PW servers are adminned, using the game to punish "evil" players rather than appealing to rules and admin abilities. Think the admin squads in Gmod RP servers, or the police in ARMA and ARMA2 RP mods such as Chernarus Life.
If you break the laws then you have the city watch to fear. This is because we make it our objective to remove all criminals from our city and the surrounding land. Furthermore under sufficient circumstances we may be pulled further afield. For example to the mines or the village to protect the citizens.
Rather than kicking people who for example kill the unarmed (eg bandits) we hope to capture or kill them. Rather than have server rules to ban them from the game we want to respond within the confines of the game. We will retain our current rules but I hope that if this proves sucessful then maybe one day we can repeal them.
All people are considered innocent until we know them to have broken the law. When they do we shall request they surrender for imprisonment, or they may resist... If you are imprisoned after you have served your term you are a free man, free to go about your business. These rules apply even if you are the bandit class. If you appear to follow the laws as a bandit then you will have no trouble from the city watch. However repeated reports from respected citizens may end this if you go too far!
If you have broken the law and are currently considered a criminal by the watch then you can be killed by members at any time. Even if unarmed, even if not a bandit. However spawn killing is the exception to this rule. If you have seen or been a victim of a crime then report it to us the criminals name and the location, preferably by visiting the town watch. If we have enough time/men available we will investigate. However bear in mind that depending on the location and the prevalence of any particular factions it may be out of our jurisdiction.
Current Criminals:
We will give everyone a clean slate after our first night as it was a test and we had not made this announcement.
From now on we will be keeping proper records of LONG TERM criminals. That is people we encounter regularly who are of the bandit bent.

Special Powers:
Watchmen may kill any criminal unless he has just spawned even if unarmed, even if not the bandit class.
Watchmen may demand access to the City Watch, co-operation will be rewarded if possible but lack of co-operation will make you a criminal.
Item requisition, watchmen may request items from you, if you are a good citizen you will provide them. However we will not kill you for them. We may steal a horse from time to time though. We will try and return items that are used. If they are lost and we can afford it we will provide replacements. Just come to the City Watch and make your claim citing the name of the watchman who you were so generous as to help.

Rules for Watchmen:
Do not random. You must be sure the person is a criminal.
Always try to arrest people first (if possible).
Always tell people what their crimes are before acting (if possible).

However this whole thing is currently still a work in progress so please bear this in mind. Laws may be subject to change as will membership of the Guard. So be sure to check our roster if you want to know who is who, for whatever reasons.
Also be aware taking up a position with the City Watch is not something anyone can do you must agree to obey the law yourself at all times when playing as a watchman. Going against this will be punished. If you observe watchmen playing improperly then please inform me privately via PM, preferably with evidence. Two strikes and they are out. First offence is a one week ban and the second permanent. That is from the server, and the group. However be aware this game can get hectic and I am sure mistakes will sometimes be made. Please be considerate in your accusations.
If you have any suggestions, questions or constructive criticisms then please make them.
IMPERSONATORS WILL BE BANNED
