General Information

• We are a PvE server.

• No warps, teleports, item/mob spawning, personal rollbacks, or WorldEdit - all requests will be ignored.
• You are allowed one /home location total (/sethome to set it).
• You are responsible for your own account, regardless of who is using it.

The Worlds

• Overworld - The main survival world. Normal difficulty. Never resets.
• Outworldland - Resource world. Hard difficulty. Resets once a month.
• Flatland - Creative world. Resets once a month.
• Somewhere Else - All builds removed by moderators are archived here. Players cannot access this world.

• Minimaps (Voxel, Rei’s, Mapwriter, etc.)
• Shaders
• Horse Stats
• WorldEditCUI
• If there is a question, contact a moderator!

Community

• Respect other players and your moderators.
• No swearing, hate speech, religion, politics discussions, or inappropriate builds.
• Public chats (in-game general chat, forum posts, Mumble) are in English only.
• Don’t use all caps in chat, spam, or advertise other servers.
• Don’t use inappropriate names or player skins.

Griefing

• If you did not build it or have explicit permission to use it, don’t mess with it!
• Don’t fix griefing on your own if you intend to report it.
• Report griefing with a modreq from the relevant location (/modreq Short description here).
• Don’t build or lure players into traps intended to kill.
• Don't build lag machines.
• Lava placement and TNT are disabled in the Overworld. Request lava placement with a modreq.

Protection

• Chests, furnaces, brewing stands, and other containers can be locked using /lock. See /lwc for a full list of options.
• Region protection is available for builds only, not as a means of claiming empty land.
• Players are limited to one region @ 30k blocks per world.
• If your build is constantly griefed, an additional region *may* be granted at moderator discretion.
• A lack of protection does not mean you can break, steal, or otherwise mess with a build.
• Don’t claim large areas of land without using them.

Building

• Don’t build right next to other players without permission.
• Be conscious of how your build might affect another player’s existing build or disrupt the landscape of the area.
• Disruptive builds may be relocated by a moderator without warning.
• Low-quality builds (scaffolding, 1x1 “noob” towers, temporary shacks, cobblestone boxes) should be removed as soon as possible.
• Abandoned, incomplete, low-quality, or disruptive builds may be moved or removed by a moderator.
• Report builds with a modreq if there are concerns.
• Not all reported builds will be removed by a moderator; it’s at their discretion.

Entities and Crops

• Don’t kill, steal, or breed another player’s mobs without permission.
• Don’t take trees or crops from public farms without replanting.
• Don’t use a farm that isn’t explicitly marked as public.
• Keep mob farms to a reasonable limit of 100 entities.

Banning

• Bans are entirely at moderator discretion.
• Bans longer than 1 day (1440m) will be posted on the Plank of Shame section of the forums.
• You may appeal a ban, but your appeal may be rejected.

100 Blocks

• This section applies to the 100 block radius around official city regions.
• These rules are to reduce lag in the major areas.
• Only take enough space for a reasonably sized home.
• Community projects may be larger, if approved by a moderator.
• No shops or mob grinders.
• Keep non-hostile mob farms under 50.
• Failure to comply with these restrictions may result in your build being moved without warning.

Cheating

• Exploiting bugs or duplicating items is forbidden.
• Don’t attempt to circumvent server protections, bedrock, chest locks, or region protection.
• Don’t circumvent the afk timer.
• Don’t use x-ray, flight, speed, insta-break, or other hacks/exploits.

Access

• Access to any and all communication may be revoked by a moderator for violation of rules.
• Access to the server may be revoked by a moderator.
• To gain access to the server, you must use /pw ivereadtherules in the lobby.
• Giving out the access phrase is an automatic ban.

Player Agreement

• By gaining access to the server, you agree to follow any and all rules.
• Failure to comply with rules can result in a temporary or permanent ban.
• These rules apply to all TWiTCraft properties: forums, mumble, in-game chat, IRC, etc. unless otherwise noted.
• Rules may change or be modified without notice.
