If you ask us what you want to do we can tell you if it's allowed or not.

6 player min for 16players
10 players min for 32 players
10 player min for 64 players

Most settings are now locked so there is not much you can change. However you can't run a knife/pistol only server or similar game changing rules.

All that is fine. Map rotation is no problem not is kicking people for those reasons listed though once you actually pay for the server it seems that you can kick whoever you want to really :)

What you can't do is enforce rules that ater the gameplay ( knife/pistol only) or where you ban commanders, etc...

There are also ranked rules for spawn times, etc. Check with your host.

these were the rules a few months back when I ran a ranked server. I dont think anything has changed.
