Server Rules

1. No using hacks or modded clients

---

Do not use any hacks, injection scripts or modified game clients that provides you with any sort of utility or advantage. This includes any "utility" clients, mods, or any texture pack that provides extra sensory perception. (esp or xray)

Exceptions to this rule are:

• Clients which optimize the game but do not provide any gameplay advantage such as:
• Optifine, Badlion, Lunar Client
• Optimization mods such as:
• Sodium, Iridium, Lithium, EntityCulling
• Schematic mods for visual reference only:
• Schematica, Litematica
• Easy place & Pick block is not allowed.
• Cosmetic mods stuch as:
• Capes, Distant Horizons, Entity Models, Iris / Shaders
• GUI mods such as:
• Minimaps, Waypoints, Inventory managers
• Ask us if you are unsure.

Using any mod (e.g. minimap, litematica) to assist with mining will be considered xray.

1.1. Use of automation software

What is allowed:

• Third party software to simulate button presses is allowed. I.e. AutoHotkey, AutoIt.
• AFK fishing contraptions and taping down your left mouse button.

What is not allowed:

• Any mod or third party software or hardware that manipulates mouse movement.
• Altering the games code in any capacity order to automate actions. I.e. Modded autoclickers are not allowed - separate programs that do mouse presses are allowed.
• Injecting code into the game at runtime. I.e. injection scripts.

2. No spamming or advertising

---

"Spam" includes repeated messages, messages sent in rapid succession with no inherent value, and messages that are nonsensical.

"Advertisement" is any reference to a third party product or service with any intent of providing said product or service with exposure.

Advertisement Exception:

• Self promotion of a media channel.

3. No excessively harassing other players

---

Swearing is fine, banter is encouraged. But if you act with the sole intention of negatively impacting another players experience in any significant capacity, verbally or otherwise, it will be considered harassment.

3.1. Do not share private information

Players should remain anonymous unless they state otherwise. Do not share any personal identifiable information about a specific individual, doing is not only a dick move, but it can potentially violate privacy laws.

4. No griefing or stealing on or around claimed land

---

Griefing

Do not grief other players on or within a reasonably close distance to their claimed land, regardless of trust status.

• "Griefing" in this context means killing, stealing, breaking, placing, claiming, or altering the environment.
• "Reasonably close" means that it is a clear and obvious extension of their build or settlement.
  This can apply up to 50 blocks from the claim for servers that use land claims.

On Skyblock this applies to any island, friendly or otherwise.

On Creative this applies to any plot of land, regardless of trust status.

Claiming

Claiming land within 50 blocks of an existing claim will be considered griefing if the existing claimant does not sanction it. Sanctions cannot be revoked.

Additionally if the claim was made with the purpose to impede base expansion, regardless of distance, it will be considered griefing.

Scamming

Scamming is not considered griefing. We will only take action if real world currency is involved, or if it violates any other rule.

TP Killing

Teleporting to another player or having a player teleport to you for the purpose of killing them, regardless of claims, will be considered griefing.

5. No abusing exploits or glitches

---

Exploits

Do not make use of exploits or glitches. Anything that is an unintended feature of the game, or design flaw within the server should not be taken advantage of.

If you find an issue, raise it with staff and you'll be rewarded depending on it's severity. Exploit and you'll risk losing anything gained from it and face a potential ban.

Farms & Lag Machines

Do not attempt or take any action that will harm or disrupt the server or its functionality. This includes but not limited to lag machines or farms large enough to cause significant impact to server load.

6. No impersonating staff

---

Do not falsely claim to be a new or existing staff member, or rename your character to that of an existing staff member.

7. No Roleplaying

---

Do not assume the attitudes, actions, or discourse of an individual or character in order to engage in an imaginary scenario - otherwise known as roleplay.
