Recently we, and a number of other VTCs, have been plagued by "vtc hoppers". To combat this, we're toughing up our requirements for applicants. The following changes will take effect immediately. Any applicants who fail to meet these new requirements will be referred to this post.

Requirements marked with * have exceptions. Our human resources team enforce these requirements to their discretion. Management will not hear cases where these rules have been enforced in said way.

• Mustn't have been in four or more VTCs

Before joining, an applicant must not have been a member of four or more VTCs within the six months period before applying. If the applicant has been in OnlyTangs two or more times during that same six-month period, they cannot reapply until eight months have passed since the first of those memberships.

• Mustn't have any §2.1 or §1.2 bans within a two year period

An applicant must not have any active, or inactive, bans for breaching rules §1.2 or §2.1 within a two year period from the date of them applying.

• Mustn't have any §2.9 bans

An applicant must not have any active, or inactive, bans for breaching rule §2.9. This excludes bans that weren't issued because of grossly offensive language. Applicants with permanent bans can never apply, whereas, applicants with temporary bans under six months in length, can once said ban has expired (i.e. they're no longer actively banned).

• Mustn't leave within 2 weeks*

An applicant shouldn't leave the VTC within two weeks of acceptance. If they do, they risk being blacklisted for up to six months. If, the applicant leaves for perfectly admissible reasons, this rule does not apply. Additionally, this rule does not apply if the applicant is removed - in this event, a separate punishment may be imposed.

• Must have more than 10 hours on an applicable game*

An applicant must have 10 or more hours on Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator, or across the two. If for whatever reason, an existing driver has to change accounts for a reason within TruckersMP's rules, this rule does not apply to any new applications they should make, provided they haven't actually left on their first account.
