These rules help ensure a fun, fair, and safe experience for everyone. Don’t look for loopholes—if something seems wrong, it probably is. When in doubt, ask staff.

Modified clients, cheats, mods, ...

Using modified clients, mods, or cheats that provide unfair advantages over other players is strictly prohibited. All modifications are used at your own risk, including those not explicitly listed. If you are found using or possessing a prohibited mod, you will be banned—even if you were unaware it was not allowed.

Here's the list of mods that are not allowed:

  • LabyMod (only versions lower than 2.6, if you are on 2.6 or higher, you're good to go)
  • Free-Cam (or any mod that lets you explore the world in a spectator-like mode)
  • Autoclickers, Macros, Printer, AutoFarming and AutoBuilding mods
  • X-Ray, Pie-Ray, Tracers and similar
  • Spawner tracers that highlight spawners
  • Texture Packs that show armour durability/enchantment levels
  • SkinFlicker/Blinking Skin
  • Anti-AFK, AFK farming, ...
  • Modifying functions of keyboards and mice for an increased advantage (e.g. Attack/Destroy: Toggle or Use Item/Place Block: Toggle)
  • Use of built-in Minecraft toggle actions that automate or sustain clicking 
  • Hardware modifications (special mice, multiple mice, mice alongside trackpads, etc)
  • Disallowed clicking methods (Drag, Brawl etc)

List of some of the allowed mods and clients:

  • Optifine (allows Minecraft to run faster and look better with full support for HD textures)
  • Armor Status, Directional Huds, and Status Effect (5-Zig, bspkrs, ...), but only if they show your own status

  • ChatCraft

Notes:

  • There may be mods not listed here that are still not allowed. If you're unsure, ask the staff before using them. 
  • Admitting to using disallowed hacks or mods—even as a joke—may be treated as a punishable offence at the staff's discretion.
  • Using mods to gain an advantage may result in any benefits gained being removed.
  • Any feature, mod, or setting that generates clicks without continuous physical input is treated as automated clicking.

Chat Behaviour

Having a nice and clean chat is one of our main goals; we'd like to provide a friendly and safe environment for all players of all ages for a more enjoyable communication. 

The list of chat behaviours that will be punished includes, but is not limited to:

  • Acting uncivilised (indecency, sexual harassment, begging, disrespecting, name-calling, racism, hate speech ...)
  • Advertising, Spamming, Flooding (or causing flood/spam), Using caps (THIS MEANS USING CAPS)
  • Accusing others of using hacks (report them instead)
  • Command trolling (tricking someone into issuing commands)
  • Pretending to be a staff member
  • Asking for rankups, items, in-game currency, ...
  • Inciting any kind of harmful behaviour
  • Any kind of behaviour that might ruin the game experience of others or that will be considered inappropriate
  • General rudeness also includes unnecessary hostility or repeatedly trying to provoke others. Even if it isn’t listed word for word above, staff may act on behaviour that is clearly disrespectful or disruptive.

Notes:  

  • Swearing is allowed, but evading the censor or targeting other players with insults is not. Turning off the chat filter with /tcf is a personal choice and doesn’t make toxic behaviour acceptable.
  • The above listed may also fall under rudeness

Offensive Behaviors

There are several other behaviours not related to the chat that we do not allow.
Disallowing these actions is what is needed to prevent players from ruining the game experience of others.

The list of offensive behaviours that will be punished includes, but is not limited to:

  • Griefing (intentionally damaging, stealing, ... the property of others)
  • Warp-Killing, TP-Killing and similar.
  • Scamming (including use of misleading items)
  • Store Scamming users by promising ranks/perks for in-game money/items/valuables
  • Claim trolling (claiming around/next to the claim of someone else with the only intent of annoying/trolling them)
  • Creating inappropriate content (sexist, racist, adult-related, offensive, etc) in any form, like buildings, books, signs, weapons, ...
  • Creating lag machines/farms (usually, but not limited to: redstone machines with the only purpose of causing server lag)
  • Stealing EVENT keys, VoteParty rewards or crate items (filling inventories, etc)
  • Glitching through blocks/access areas you're not supposed to access
  • Pushing/hitting from the edge in PvP arenas
  • Abusing commands to escape PvP
  • Command spam/abuse
  • Abusing pets (For example, to glitch or in combat)
  • Exploiting game mechanics to gain unfair advantages
    • Example: Abusing Skyblock Island resets to get Nether Spawners
  • Boosting (Islands, Factions, Towns, etc. — including for Hall of Fame)
  • Hiding or helping rule-breakers
  • Framing others or providing false evidence
  • Sharing accounts with banned players
  • Doxxing (sharing someone’s private information)
  • Stealing information (e.g., IPs via grabber links)
  • Selling accounts
  • Threats of any kind
  • Inviting ban evaders to your party or team, whether intentional or due to a lack of proper checks, is strictly prohibited and will be treated as a serious offence.

Notes:

  • We might not handle scams that can easily be avoided with /trade
  • Assisting TP killing or similar acts will be treated the same as directly committing them.
  • We may not be able to give back items from tpkills or scams if they cannot be found.
  • Scamming/tpkilling is allowed only on Factions and Anarchy.
  • Cross-scamming is allowed between Factions and Anarchy only.
  • Scamming outside these servers is punishable.
  • Buycraft/Coin scamming is never allowed anywhere.
  • Inappropriate item names are not allowed anywhere.

Insiding, Betrayal & Team Integrity

Insiding, backstabbing, or betraying your own teammates is strictly prohibited across all game modes. This includes any action that deliberately harms your team from within—whether it be stealing, griefing, leaking information, or sabotaging in any form. When you join a team, you are expected to contribute positively and act in the best interest of the group.

We will not perform rollbacks for insiding. Only the offending players will be punished. It is your responsibility to take all possible precautions to prevent insiding. This includes being selective with who you invite, managing permissions carefully, and staying vigilant—preventing insiding is completely possible if you're cautious.

Additional Rules:

  • If you leave or are removed from a team, you must wait 24 hours before assisting in any kind of raid or attack against your former team. This includes directly raiding them or sharing sensitive information (such as base coordinates).
  • Reverse insiding—kicking someone with the intention of killing them to steal their items—is also strictly forbidden and will be punished accordingly.

Multiple Accounts

Using multiple accounts is not allowed. It creates unfair advantages, enables abuse (like ban or punishment evasion), and can disrupt gameplay balance by doubling rewards or bypassing rank-based limits. It also makes it harder for staff to track player actions and enforce rules properly.

Real Currency Trading

This section is related to a series of behaviours generally related to any trades which involve actual currency, which isn't in-game

The list of behaviours that will be punished includes, but is not limited to:

  • Using Real Currency to trade in-game currency/items
  • Conducting trades via any external payment platform (e.g., Venmo, CashApp)
  • Trading in-game items for gift cards, crypto, or any real-world goods/services

Fair use exception:

Non-commercial systems that use free, in-server rewards and are funded using server-issued resources may be allowed, as long as no real money is involved at any stage.

Screensharing

If a player or staff member is suspected of breaking the rules but the evidence is unclear or conflicting, we may offer a screenshare as a way to clarify the situation. This helps confirm or rule out the use of disallowed clients or other violations. You may refuse the screenshare, but doing so is typically treated as an admission of guilt. If you agree to screenshare, full cooperation is expected—attempts to hide or avoid evidence will be treated as a serious offence.

Other

We reserve the right to decide what qualifies as an offence—such as excessive use of capitalisation—and to take appropriate action, even if the behaviour isn't explicitly listed above.

Punishments depend on intent, severity, and context. Staff decide based on the situation to keep things fair

These rules don’t cover every possible situation. Use common sense and the spirit of fair play when unsure, and if you are unsure about something, ask a staff member for clarification.

Evidence older than 7 days may be disregarded depending on the situation.
