Additional Info:
*Disrespect, raging, caps lock, inappropriate content are all allowed in /msg. Unless the player receiving the messages does not report the player, no action will be taken by mods. Note that spam should not be broken in /msg and is not the same as the other rules.
*The player reporting a lurer or a scammer needs to include valid proof of the deal. This includes a picture, a video, or a copy of the logs that the player received. The proof will be considered valid only if these were found in your proof:
-A message from the lurer asking for to buy or sell the item.
-You accepting the offer and paying the money and then the player logging off or ignoring you (only for scamming reports).
-A death message indicating that you were killed by the person who asked for the offer (lurers only).
*Griefing in the wild is allowed, any houses that are built in the wild and griefed will not be refunded. A mayor or co-mayor of a town is not allowed to claim land near another town from all directions (5 plot radius).
*A player may send a server address or website link to only a few players in Private Message. If caught sending it to multiple players or spamming the same message actions will be taken.
*No mods of any kinds are allowed except the following:
-Optifine
-Shaders
-Any mods that only affect the game’s appearance.
*A mod may speak a different language for a few messages only to notify people who speak other languages to stop. If you see a person speaking the same language you speak you may tell him to stop in main chat or msg. You may not continue speaking with the same language.
*Once a donor is banned, the banned player is not allowed to request the donor rank to be moved to another player. Once a donor is banned the money for the donation is wasted and can not be used again.
*A donor may only use his mute or kick permission when he sees another player violation the rules while no moderators are online.
