Server Rules - MC-Earth/MC-Earth GitHub Wiki

Please familiarize yourself with the rules of the server. Any violation of the rules will result in a warning from staff followed by bans. If the rule broken is severe, then the ban will be immediate.

Cheating:

  • Client modifications which give players an unfair advantage are not allowed. Modifications which are purely for aesthetics, armor, HUD effects, or client optimization are allowed.
    • Mini maps which do not display other players or mobs are allowed.
    • Litematica or schematica is allowed as long as you do not use the print feature.
  • Abusing unintentional bugs and exploits is not allowed. If you see any player abusing these, please report them to a staff member immediately.
  • The usage of macros are allowed. However, they must require human input and can not be automated. You must be able to respond to other players or staff members at any given time

Gameplay:

  • Bypassing the AFK kick feature will not be tolerated.
  • AFK fishing is strictly not allowed due to how overpowered it can be and because it was nerfed in 1.16. Anyone found to have created an AFK fish farm will be punished
  • Attempting to cause major server lag will result in a ban.
  • The act of intentionally griefing is not allowed. Lavacasts, as an example, will result in a permanent ban since it is an intentional grief to another player's build.
  • Raiding unclaimed territory or towns that have fallen into ruin is allowed. The following structures are allowed to be raided:
    • Items from containers (including chests, barrels, furnaces, hoppers, brewing stands, chest minecarts)
    • Player beds
    • Blocks of minerals and ores
    • Spawners
      • Players can mine spawners by using a silk touch pickaxe and place it in a claimed plot with mobs toggled on. The only exception to this is that blaze spanwers can not be mined since they are too powerful. To toggle mobs spawns for a specific plot, type the command /plot toggle mobs
    • Beacons
    • Animals, crops, trees, and other automated farms that are built outside of claimed areas
    • Redstone creations and anything powered with redstone such as hoppers, noteblocks, etc.
    • Enchanting tables, anvils, grindstones, and bookshelves
  • Trading items for real life money is not allowed. If anyone comes up to you and offers real life money for ingame items, please report them to a staff member immediately.
  • Intentionally trapping, killing, or spawn camping another player is not allowed. Tracking a player down using dynmap is allowed and can only be done once. You may take any items you want. Tracking down new players to the server and waiting for their newbie protection to expire is not allowed.
  • Preventing towns from expanding by intentionally claiming land around their claims is not allowed.
  • Major terraforming of the map is not allowed. If you need to collect resources, enter the resource world to do so. If you destroy trees in the main world, replant them. Clearing land for builds is acceptable, but clearing out entire countries for resources and not fixing it is not allowed.
  • Map art is allowed in Antarctica if there are no claimed areas nearby. Map art can also be built in the resources world in desert, tundra, and ocean biomes. Map are can not contain nudity, sexual content, racist imagery, offensive language, or anything else that breaks our guidelines.
  • Explicit, racist, offensive language, or other inappropriate usernames, titles, town or nation names are not allowed.

Ingame Chat and Discord:

  • Advertising other servers and products which are not related to this server is not allowed and the message will be instantly removed.
  • Sensitive topics are not allowed to be talked about in chat.

  • False and misleading statements or baiting another playing into harmful actions is not allowed.
  • If you see another player breaking rules, do not call them out on it. Instead, report any incidents to a member of the staff and they will look into it. Provide the staff member with as much information as possible.
  • Do not spread any false or misleading gossip about another player.
