Community Guidelines

These guidelines exist to keep EH Assets a high-quality, helpful resource for the Emergency Hamburg community. All uploads are reviewed by moderators before appearing publicly. By submitting a map or customising your profile, you agree to follow these guidelines in addition to our Terms of Service.

1. Your Map Must Be Your Own Work

Only upload maps that you created yourself, or that you have explicit permission to share. Do not copy or re-upload maps made by other players without their consent. If you have collaborated on a map, ensure all parties are aware it is being listed here.

2. Accurate Information

Map names, descriptions, and screenshots must accurately represent the map. Do not use misleading titles, fake previews, or descriptions that exaggerate or misrepresent your map's content. Deliberately misleading listings may be removed and repeated offences may result in a suspension.

3. Quality Standards

We welcome maps of all sizes and complexity. Small, focused maps are absolutely fine, however, submissions must represent a genuine, playable map with meaningful content. The following are considered low quality and will be rejected:

• Empty or near-empty maps - Maps consisting of only one or two objects or a few changes that aren't noticeable.
• Test maps or bug maps - Maps that exist solely to reproduce or demonstrate a bug, exploit, or glitch in Emergency Hamburg. These are not appropriate for public listing. If you've found a bug in the game, report it through the appropriate channels.
• Duplicate submissions - Do not submit the same map more than once. If your map has been updated or re-saved with a new ID, use the "Add additional Map ID" feature on your existing listing instead of submitting a new one.

If you're unsure whether your map meets the quality bar, a good rule of thumb is: would another player get genuine value from loading this map in-game? If yes, it's likely fine. If not, it probably needs more work before submission.

4. Screenshots

You must provide at least one screenshot of your map. Screenshots should:

• Actually show the map being submitted, not a different map or an unrelated image
• Be taken in-game in Emergency Hamburg
• Be appropriate and inoffensive

Submissions with no screenshots, clearly incorrect screenshots, or inappropriate images will be rejected.

5. Appropriate Content

All content on EH Assets - including map names, descriptions, screenshots, tags, profile bios, and profile banners - must be appropriate for a general audience. The following are not permitted:

• Offensive, hateful, or discriminatory content of any kind
• Explicit, sexual, or adult content
• Content promoting or glorifying real-world violence, illegal activity, or self-harm
• Personal attacks on other players or community members

6. Profile Banners & Bios

You may personalise your profile with a banner image or GIF, and a short bio. These are subject to the same content standards as all other content on the platform. In addition:

• Banners must be image or GIF files and must not exceed 5 MB
• Bios must not exceed 200 characters and must not include links, html, or external references of any kind
• Profile content that is found to violate these guidelines may be removed without notice

7. Map IDs

The Map ID you submit must be the genuine UUID assigned to your map inside Emergency Hamburg. Do not submit fake, random, or incorrect IDs. If your map has multiple variants which players can use (e.g. no vegetation), you can add up to 5 IDs to a single listing. Do not create a duplicate listing for the same map.

8. Tags

Use tags that are relevant to your map. Do not use tags that are misleading, irrelevant, or used purely to game the search system. Tags should help players find maps that match their interests. Spam tags or unrelated keywords may result in your tags being edited or your listing removed.

9. Moderation Decisions

Moderators review all submissions and have final say on what is approved or rejected. Rejection does not mean your map is bad, it may simply need more work, better screenshots, or clearer descriptions. You are welcome to revise and resubmit.

If you believe a moderation decision was made in error, you can submit a suspension appeal via the Appeal page (if appeals are currently open).

10. Enforcement

Violations of these guidelines may result in:

• Your map listing being removed
• Your profile banner or bio being reset
• A temporary or permanent suspension from uploading
• Removal of all your listings in serious cases

Serious or repeated violations, such as submitting inappropriate content, impersonating others, or attempting to exploit the platform, will be escalated and may result in a permanent suspension.

11. Questions

If you have questions about whether your map or content meets these guidelines, feel free to ask in our community Discord: discord.gg/wmRzgABJqU.
