Rule 1: Treat other players with respect

• Do not harass any person on the server.
• If someone is harassing you, report the harassment and do not engage in the conversation. It is recommended to report and use /ignore on any players you have issues with.
• If you are ignored or blocked, respect the other player’s wishes.
• Please only use the Support page or #tickets in Discord to report players. If you notice any staff members abusing their authority please inform us. Any form of disrespect will not be accepted.

Rule 2: No Griefing anywhere, whatsoever

• This includes claimed land, unclaimed land (except random spam), and revenge griefing.
  • This does not include resource worlds as these worlds are ONLY intended for farming and claims are disabled.
• No lava casting.
• Mass destruction of the map is also considered griefing. You should only use the overworld for building and light contained destruction. You may do any kind of destructive harvesting in the resource world (/rtp).

• Sensitive topics include but are not limited to: self-harm, politics, drug use, abuse.
• You are free to speak about anything if it stays in private chat and as long as the other party allows it.
• You are not allowed to /ignore staff members. This is because it makes moderation difficult.

• You automatically consent by entering any clearly marked PvP zones such as a duel or a server pvp arena.
  • TPing or baiting players to a PvP area to fight them is not allowed.
• Hitting someone else even once, allows them to hit or even kill you back, though it is recommended you just report them as fights may get confusing to judge.

  • It is still recommended to claim past just your build area to save a piece of land for future use.
• Claims that break the 100 blocks claim rule must be reported in a timely manner. Not reporting someone’s claim violation and allowing them to build for weeks may mean that their claim might not be removed.
