5. Etiquette:

- No abusing the claims system - public areas are to be kept public
- No advertising or soliciting - on the server or Discord, this includes other Minecraft servers
- No disparaging the server, or server staff
- No excessive religious or political conversation - it drives people away
- No looting another player's body unless protecting items
- No building within 250 blocks of another player without permission; 1000 for larger bases
- No begging - you are expected to fend for yourself, there are no teleports
- Don't block someone in - physical obstruction or traps are not tolerated; pranks are accepted but don't go too far
- If a player asks you to leave their area/claim you must leave
- No loitering other player's areas
- No squatting - you are not allowed to move into another person's base without permission
- Don't leave tree tops
- Do not spoil server lore - users have put lots of work into puzzles
- No spamming chat/Discord
- There's a fine line between sharing and attention seeking - try not to be attention seeking
- When a player is killed via PVP they will drop their head - this is a fun thing. It is OK if someone gets your head in consensual PVP - they are entitled to keep it if they desire
- Don't use Dynmap to target or bother others, especially admins. We'd prefer if players didn't hide themselves since it goes against why we have it
6. Redstone & Automation:
- Optimize trading halls - villagers cause insane lag. Name trading villagers "Bonk" or "Trader" to disable their AI
- We allow the usage of three accounts per IP address. If more are logged into the network at any time we may take action depending on severity
- No lag-inducing automation - avoid excessive block updates
- Redstone automation must ALWAYS have a way to be disabled; in situations where it cannot be disabled, it must be lag-efficient so unintentional loading doesn't lag server
- Keep farms/mob grinders at reasonable levels. Limit the number of farms to one per mob/animal/plant type (double spawners are acceptable)
- Excess items must be burnt - avoid lots of loose entities
- Optimize your hoppers - avoid full hoppers and place composters on exposed hoppers
- No carpet dupers - community mapart exception
WARNING: Failure to follow the rules can result in a permanent ban. Rules are subject to change at op's discretion.
Players who we believe are not a good fit will be removed from the community.
