Server Rules

Arctic Realms Server Rules

These rules are essentially a repetition of common sense! If a certain edge-case scenario is not described here, please use your common sense!

Griefing 💥

Destroying or damaging any part of unclaimed builds which are not your own is not allowed! Stealing items from unclaimed containers (i.e. chests, barrels, etc.) is also not allowed!

Additionally, check out 💥Preventing Grief for details about our claiming policies.

Claiming ⛺

It is still recommended to claim past just your build area to save a piece of land for future use.

1. Do not claim or build within 100 blocks of an existing claim without permission from the claim owner. Failure to do so may result in your build being moved.
2. Claims that break the 100 blocks claim rule must be reported in a timely manner. Not reporting someone's claim violation and allowing them to build for weeks may mean that their claim might not be removed.
3. Do not trespass on claims. If you repeatedly ignore the claim owner's wishes for you leave, you may be forcibly removed and punished.

Combat ⚔️

1. PvP must be consented to. You can establish any rules you want with the other party, but it must be agreed upon and followed throughout the fight.
2. You automatically consent by entering any clearly marked PvP zones such as /warp PvP.
3. TPing or baiting players to a PvP area to fight them is not allowed.

Cheating 🗑

We don’t allow any software that gives you a distinct competitive advantage over other players or causes harm to the server.

Chatting 📝

We have a very relaxed chat environment and you’re mostly able to speak anything that’s on your mind! That being said- spamming, political discussion, racism, and homophobia are not allowed.

1. Treat everyone with respect.
2. Keep communications clean.
3. Any type of spamming or advertisements are not allowed including advertising for any other servers.
4. Do not harass any person on the server.
5. If someone is harassing you, report it and do not harass them back. It is recommended you report or /ignore any player you have issues with.
6. If you are ignored or blocked, please respect the other's wishes.

Exploits 🧨

Minecraft has a ton of unintended functionality, ranging from harmless to game breaking. As a rule of thumb, most exploits are not allowed.

Farming 👩‍🌾

Please don’t build laggy farms or XP grinders. Staff reserves the right to destroy/modify anything that is causing major server issues with or without warning. Repeat offenses of this nature are bannable!

Scamming 💸

Since we’re an economy-based server, there’s ton of potential for players being dishonest. Generally, don’t sell deceptive-looking items and stick to your trade agreements!

1. No real-world trading:
• This includes selling or buying in-game items/money for real world currency and assets.
• Gifting in-game items/money and buying things on the store for others on their behalf as a gift is allowed.

Ban Evading 🔨

Do not evade punishments in any way, joining with alternate accounts after you have previously been banned will result in an escalation of your ban length.

Miscellaneous 🌻

Generally, just use healthy common sense and report anything that seems off to a staff member! We’re trying to cultivate a friendly and cooperative community and weed out the bad apples! 🍏

1. Staff reserve the ability to punish players which are seen as an overall nuisance to the community with no further reasoning
2. We mostly don’t moderate what occurs outside of our server or Discord!
1. Private messages through from members on our Discord server should be reported to Discord’s Trust & Safety team
