We ran polls in Discord and talked through how we want survival to feel. The server has always had a candid, rough-around-the-edges community, and handling endless claim dispute tickets when people raid each other takes away from what makes vanilla survival fun. So we are opening up the wild:

What is Allowed (Effective Nov 10)

• Griefing & Base Raiding: Raiding rival bases, breaching defenses with TNT, and claiming whatever loot you find.
• Stealing & Looting: Finding hidden chests, looting farms, and taking resources anywhere in the wild.
• Open-World PvP: Combat is enabled across the map outside of spawn docks—ambushes, bounties, and team skirmishes.
• Server Economy & Free Barter: Earn balance by selling resources with /sell and /shop, trade player surplus in /auction, send funds with /pay, or trade physical diamonds directly without server taxes.
• Alliances & Clan Rivalries: Teaming up with friends, building secret shared bases, and settling rivalries in-game.
• Performance & Visual Mods: Client-side optimization mods like Sodium, Iris shaders, Lithium, OptiFine, and clean HUDs.

How to Keep Your Stuff Safe

Because claims no longer prevent raiding or roll back griefing, you need to rely on vanilla survival instincts:

1. Travel far from spawn: Don’t build within sight of (0, 0) or the spawn docks. Head a few thousand blocks out.
2. Hide your base: Underground vaults, hidden entrances under natural terrain, and off-axis travel keep your base hidden.
3. Guard your coordinates: Do not stream or share your F3 screen with people you do not trust.

What is Strictly Banned (Zero Tolerance)

Semi-no-rules means freedom inside normal survival gameplay—it does not mean anything goes. The following will get you permanently banned without a warning:

1. Cheats & Hacked Clients: X-ray texture packs/mods, killaura, fly hacks, speed hacks, freecam, auto-clickers, and botting scripts like Baritone. Play with standard vanilla survival mechanics.
2. Doxxing, DDoS & Real-Life Drama: Any IP grabbing, threats, harassment, or digging into players’ real-life identities (no calling people’s families, schools, or employers). Keep everything strictly in the game.
3. Identity Slurs & Hate Speech: Racial, ethnic, or gender-based slurs and hate speech bring an immediate permanent ban. Casual swearing out of frustration is allowed (though in-game warnings may remind you it is discouraged), but slurs and targeted hate speech are zero tolerance.
4. Lag Machines: Intentionally building redstone lag machines, entity crammers, or chunk loaders meant to lag or crash the server.
5. Duping: Item duplication glitches and exploits. Duped items are cleared and offenders are banned.
