Rules & land claims

Short list. The point is that your work is safe and your disputes are real.

Claim your base

Land claims are free and available to every player. A claim protects the blocks and containers inside it — nobody else can break, place or open anything within it.

Claim before you build anything you care about. An unclaimed base is unprotected by definition, and "I had not claimed it yet" is not something staff can undo.

Do not grief or steal

Conflict is allowed — sabotage is not

The server is built around nations and borders, so rivalry, blockades, hard bargaining and open war are all fair play. PvP is on.

What is not allowed is bypassing the game to win: griefing a claim, exploiting a bug, or abusing a duplication glitch. Win by playing better, not by breaking the server.

Cheating

Performance mods such as Sodium, Lithium and Fabulously Optimized are entirely fine. The line is on mods that give information or capability the game does not intend you to have.

Be decent to people

No harassment, slurs, or hate. No spam. This is a server people join to build on for months — behave like you want them to stay.

Accounts

Your name on the server is your real Minecraft name. Every player gets one optional nickname change, ever, and you are warned before it locks. That is deliberate: reputation should follow you.
