The rules in spawn.

You must follow these rules while playing on the server. Rule breakers will be first warned and then banned. If you are unsure about something, feel free to ask from our moderators. Please use common sense!

No griefing or stealing

Modifying other people's builds without a permission is called griefing and it's strictly prohibited here. This includes following actions:

  • Breaking or placing blocks.
  • Taking items from or putting items into containers (chests, barrels, furnaces, armor stands etc.).
  • Killing mobs or other entities.

Terraformed areas are considered as builds. It's also possible to claim a small area using a sign. That kind of claims are no longer valid if the players becomes inactive.

Permissions

Permissions to do above things are usually given via signs.

  • If you’re collaborating with someone, add a sign in the building listing your names and ”have perms for this build”.
  • If you allow someone to your your chests, write the playername and ”has perms”.
  • If you share a base with someone, write ”Shared base:” and playernames.

The permission signs need to be written by the person who owns the build/chests or has a permission from their owner.

Temporary permissions can be also given in chat. They will expire in 24 hours. You can also give permissions in the wiki and forum.

Also, if two players are logged in from same IP, they have full perms for each other's stuff.

Without permissions given, taking or breaking anything will be considered grief.

Other exceptions to above

  • Breaking simple builds without any purpose (single blocks, temporary bridges etc.) is allowed. Ask from a moderator if unsure!
  • Connecting into public infrastructure like roads is allowed.
  • Crop farms can be used as long as you replant the crops same way.

No cheating

Mods and cheat clients

Killing, restricted builds and other rules about builds

  1. Killing players outside PVP arenas is not allowed. This includes luring or teleporting players into danger.
  2. Traps that are designed to collect people's loot into private chests are not allowed.
  3. Do not build lag machines or chunk loaders.
  4. Do not build anything that is violent or explicit. This includes references to genocides, terrorism or wars.
  5. All warps have to be useful and their surroundings look nice.
  6. Do not revoke people's permissions to their own work without a warning.

How the rules are enforced?

I must admit I've never seen an actual server ran like this before. I don't know how this manages to hold up and work but its a miracle which makes it special. – 16.png Headcruncher1

Unlike most servers, we don't have land claims or similar protection against griefing. To keep the vanilla gameplay, we have a different approach:

  • Every action is logged so moderators can check who griefed. They also get alerts about likely rule violations.
  • Due to this, grief is also very quick to repair and harmful people get banned before they do any serious damage.

We have zero-tolerance for any kind of discrimination. Racial slurs will get you immediately permabanned.

Special areas

Some special areas have a little different rules:

  • All kinds of builds are not allowed in the spawn. Read more here.
  • Griefing is allowed in the main island of End but keep it looking nice.
