Essential Server Rules for a Respectful and Fun Minecraft Community

Creating a welcoming and enjoyable Minecraft server depends on clear rules that promote respect, fairness, and fun. Without guidelines, players can face harassment, confusion, or unfair gameplay, which damages the community spirit. This post outlines the essential rules every player should know to keep the server friendly and engaging for everyone.

Respect Others at All Times

Respect is the foundation of any thriving community. On this server, respect means no harassment, hate speech, griefing, toxicity, or drama. Every player deserves to feel safe and valued. Here are some key points to remember:

• Keep chat and voice channels friendly. Avoid offensive language or personal attacks.

• Respect builds, claims, and privacy. Do not destroy or enter others’ bases without permission.

• If a joke makes someone uncomfortable, stop immediately. Saying “just joking” is not an excuse.

• Bring issues to staff privately. Avoid public arguments or drama.

  
  

Following these guidelines helps everyone enjoy the game without fear of bullying or conflict.

Clear Identity Rules

To maintain trust and accountability, your Discord nickname must clearly match your Minecraft in-game name (IGN). This rule helps staff and players identify each other easily and prevents confusion or impersonation.

Fair Gameplay Practices

Gameplay rules ensure fairness and prevent abuse. Players should:

• Claim only active bases. Avoid hoarding land that you do not use.

• Do not build directly next to others without permission. Respect personal space.

• Secondary homes and travel are allowed. Feel free to explore and create multiple bases.

• No cheats, dupes, exploits, hacked clients, or laggy builds. These harm the server and ruin the experience.

• Generated loot chests must remain accessible. Do not block or hide them.

• Always ask before teleporting to someone. Respect others’ privacy and time.

  
  

These rules keep the gameplay balanced and enjoyable for all players.

Technical Rules to Prevent Server Issues

Technical restrictions protect the server’s performance and stability:

• Anything causing lag, crashes, or infinite automation is banned. This includes certain redstone contraptions or mods.

• All farms must have an off-switch and be turned off before logging out. This prevents unnecessary server load.

• Only FTB Chunks may chunkload. Complaining about chunk rules leads to warnings and possible bans.

• The Time Wand (Just Dire Things) is banned. Staff may remove harmful builds.

  
  

Following these rules helps maintain a smooth and stable server environment.

Chat Guidelines for a Positive Atmosphere

Global chat is a shared space where everyone interacts. To keep it pleasant:

• Move long two-person conversations to DMs, voice chat, or private messages. This keeps chat clear for everyone.

• Avoid spam or filler messages. Keep chat meaningful and relevant.

• Always follow moderator instructions. Staff decisions are final and help maintain order.

  
  

Respecting chat rules ensures communication stays friendly and efficient.

Rules for The End Dimension

The End is always open for players to explore and fight the dragon. Important rules include:

• If you kill the dragon, you must respawn it. This keeps the End accessible for others.

• Respect others’ End bases and builds. Do not grief or steal.

  
  

These rules keep The End fair and fun for all players.

Economy Rules Based on Ores

The server economy is simple and fair, based only on ores:

• All shops and trades must use ore-based currency. No alternative currencies allowed.

• Price items fairly. Avoid price gouging or unfair trades.

• Staff may step in to resolve disputes.

  
  

This system keeps trading straightforward and balanced.

Community Conduct and Bug Reporting

A healthy community avoids drama and spam:

• No spam, ads, or splinter-server drama. Focus on building a positive environment.

• Respect personal space. Do not harass or invade others’ gameplay.

• Report bugs instead of abusing them. Help improve the server by notifying staff.

• Do not discuss banned players. Respect staff decisions and privacy.

  
  

Good community conduct strengthens the server’s social fabric.

AFK and Inactivity Policy

To keep the server active and fair:

• AFK for over 1 hour results in auto timeout. This prevents idle players from blocking chat or resources.

• 2+ weeks inactive without a ticket may lead to removal from Discord, whitelist, and unclaimed chunks. This frees up space for active players.

  
  

Staying active or notifying staff helps maintain a vibrant community.

Store and Purchase Rules

For players who buy items or perks:

• All purchases are non-refundable. Be sure before you buy.

• Chargebacks result in permanent bans. Respect the server’s economy and rules.

  
  

These rules protect the server’s financial integrity.

How to Contact Staff

If you need help or want to report an issue:

• Do not DM the owner (Tee) or ask her in-game for help. This avoids overwhelming the owner.

• Use the ⁠・tickets system or ping a @Moderator. Staff will assist you promptly.

  
  

Following this process ensures your concerns are handled efficiently.
