# Rules

### **Server Rules** 

* Do not impersonate staff or other players through /nick, changing names/alts etc. (this also includes saying "I'm Staff" when you are not) 
* Don't ask staff for money, items, ranks or OP. Asking to buy something off of them is different. 
* Griefing is not allowed under any circumstances. If you are trusted on claimed land and remove/destroy/take anything without permission of the claim owner, it will be considered griefing. Do not steal or grief from claimed or unclaimed land, period. 
* Do not discuss politics, religion, or other controversial issues in Global chat. These topics usually lead to heated arguments, and have a negative affect towards the community itself/ This can be acceptable if the players in chat are calm about it, and there always has to be as staff member online for this kind of conversation. 
* Teleport traps are not allowed. Players cannot teleport to or request that another player teleports to them for the purpose of killing or trapping the other player 
* As a rule of thumb, You must build at least 250 blocks or more away from other players creations/claims unless they give permission. After 120 days, inactive claims can be removed. 
* Hacked clients or mods that give a distinct advantage over other players are not permitted. This includes auto-clickers and mini maps. Allowed mods include: fullbright, optifine. 
* Duplication glitches of any kind are not permitted. 
* AFK pools are not permitted. Any attempt to circumvent the AFK timer will result in your account getting kicked, with further punishment to follow if the behaviour continues.
* The use of 1 alternate account per player is allowed, however the use of an alt to pretend to be someone else is not permitted.
* Players can enter server contests through 1 account at a time only. Entering one contest with a main account and an alternate account is not permitted.
* Don't spam chat, this includes with repeated characters, phrases, commands, etc.
* English is the only language allowed in Global Chat, You may use other private channels such as settlement chat, party chat or local chat for other languages. 
* No advertising. This includes other server IP’s, discord servers, products, websites or services. 
* Respect staff and their decisions. If you feel that a staff member’s decision was unfair or targeted towards you, take up your issue with a higher ranked staff member (preferably admin and higher). 
* No racist, sexist, or other forms of disrespectful or offensive language or behaviour is permitted. This includes inappropriate slurs, iconography, skins/capes, or actions that are generally seen as disrespectful or offensive. 
* No racist, sexist, or other forms of disrespectful builds are allowed.
* We advise you not to share private/personal information, and players should be weary of scammers attempting to gain personal information in private chats/DM's.
