Summary
Rust servers can be private or public, creating a different gameplay experience. While private servers are typically more controlled via Password or Whitelist, public servers allow any player to join. While this can make for unique and remarkable experiences, bad actors are occasionally attracted to public servers with ill intentions, like griefing or camping. Any undesired players can be quickly removed from the Games panel console or in-game through admin commands.
