This post is supplementary to the Survival Rules post and the existing server rules, and does not replace or change any existing rules. It is purely to give some extra clarification on some thing that have become an issue recently.
- Treatment of Staff -
There has been a disappointing increase recently in people acting in an unpleasant way towards staff members while they are trying to assist people on the server.
I want to make it very clear that harassing, spamming, undermining, being rude to or disrespecting staff members will not be tolerated, and may result in you being refused assistance or punished.
The staff are volunteers and work hard to make the server run smoothly and be a positive experience for players, and should be treated with respect at all times. They are people, just like you.
- Thefts and Griefs -
While stealing and griefing are against the server rules, we expect players to also take reasonable responsibility for protecting their own possessions.
As such, we may not prioritise resolving a minor issue if:
a) a build, farm or mob/pet is unclaimed or not sufficiently protected
b) your items are lost or ‘stolen’ due to an intended game feature such as dropping items upon death (this does not include situations that include deliberate player killing)
c) items are taken from shared areas, such as on claims with multiple added members or on unclaimed land
Please make use of the features on the server that are there to help you protect your things - such as claiming, or the lockette private signs - and be cautious with who you allow access. We will still help you as much as we are able to, but you are also responsible for being sensible with your own stuff.
If you have any questions or concerns about these clarifications, feel free to contact a staff member or myself!
Thanks!
Ibby - Survival Manager
