# Dont be a Jerk Respect each other on the server regardless of race, religion and place of origin. Especially staff members.
# Try to keep Religious and political views OUT of the server. As a server, We want our members to try to keep religious and political views i.e. views about real life governments, politicians and a race or religion out of the server. We dont want a server fight breaking out!
# Do not spam or use caps excessively We want to make the experience for you and your fellow server members the best. You can help us by not spamming the chat. Please try to keep messages 1-3 seconds apart.
# Advertising is strictly prohibited. Advertising is not nice for the server or its community. If you wish to advertise, please do it somewhere else that permits it. *Please note that mentioning other servers' names which are not inside the mentionable list without saying out the IP is also considered as advertising.
# Staff are not your servants The server staff are around to help keep the server safe and moderate users. They are not there for you to ask for teleports, blocks and items. Please do not be offended if we disagree to any of your requests.
# Do not ask for a promotion to a different rank Asking for a promotion to a higher rank will only decrease the chances of you being promoted to that rank. It annoys staff members and can be considered as begging.

M: My sibling used my account to grief! It is his fault not mine!! I get to be unbanned do I?
Ans: YOU are RESPONSIBLE for your OWN account. We will not hesitate to ban any griefers on the server.
M: I just accidentally spammed the chat... Can I be unmuted?
Ans: There is no such thing as "accidentally" spamming the chat.
M: I had to grief to get to his chest in survival.....
Ans: Griefing just to get to chests etc. is prohibited as it falls under General Rule 1 - even if you fixed the grief
M: Since I cant access the protected chest... I can go around the protection by a way which I found works and will be ok!
