Rules which apply on the server but may not be written down in a formal way at the tutorial, /rules or /warp rules or may be difficult to find. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Discord-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Do not misuse #get-help you will be kicked from the discord if you are not using it for server related help. For example, spammers, grief, needing a warp set. 
  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Auctions----------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Do not name the top bidder each time someone bids higher than the person before. This generates unnecessary chat spam. You only need to name the top bidder at the end of a bid or the near ending of a bid. 
  
• Do not auction off 'fake items' such as items you do not have, that are stolen. You must make clear the difference between an actual item (Deadcore's own shovel) or a renamed shovel.
  
• Fake auctions or bids will not be tolerated. Only auction if you have the item and only bid if you have the money. 
  
• You must follow through with bids/auctions. If you auction an item and do not get the amount of money planned, you still have to sell the items to the winning bidder. Furthermore, if you are the winning bidder you must pay up even if you didn't wish to buy the item.
  
• Don't start an auction if there is already one going on at the time.
  
• Only bid in whole increments ($1) not ($0.001)
  
• Don't spam your auction just because no one is bidding.
  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------Nick Names--------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Do not impersonate other players on the server. This is because it causes confusion when talking to players in chat.
  
• Do not pretend to be a relative or object related to someone, if they have asked not to be used in your nickname, this can cause some to feel uncomfortable. 
  
• Please do not create 'spammy' nick names such as [Adept] iliketogoouttothebeach if you are going to have nick names like this please capitalise or colour code them. [Adept] ILikeToGoOutToTheBeach 
  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chat Rules---------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Be respectful to everyone. This means not telling people to "shut up" or "fuck off"
  
• Do not pretend to /msg someone. (using color codes to make it look like you are /msg'ing them) [Experienced] F >>  -> me] This causes chat problems and confusion. It is sometimes funny one time not multiple.
  
• Do not spam your #AD every minute. Keep Ad's to either every 5 minutes or if the chat is quiet, advertise each time it leaves chat when you scroll up. 
  
• Do not waste staff's time. Staff want to help everyone, but calling staff for help without reason means that staff cannot help someone else with an actual reason.
  
• Do not avoid being kicked. If you accidentally spammed or used caps staff understand this may have been an accident, but you still need to be kicked for your warning. Leaving the server will result in possible temp ban, mute or a kick when you join back anyways. 
  
• Please try not to abuse color codes. They are a VIP perk only, but there is no need to talk in a rainbow italic  font each time you're trying to speak to a friend. 
  
• We all enjoy custom death messages when renaming a zombie to a funny name. However, some do not enjoy it when different custom death messages are spammed in the chat. Please try to avoid spamming death messages in chat and make sure they're appropriate.
  
• Do not /afk then move about, /afk then move about, /afk then move about. It counts as spamming and you will be kicked for it. 
  
• Do not post inappropriate links, share personal images or information about someone else in global. It is their choice who knows what information about them. 
  
• If told to /ignore someone, please either listen to staff and /ignore them. Or do not complain in global about it. 
  
• Do not purposefully cause arguments in chat, if told to drop a situation in chat by staff, please do so. If there is further issues please direct message staff about any issues.
  

--------------------------------------------------------------------------Claims & In Game -----------------------------------------------------------------------

• The 100 block rule always applies. Even if someone has been offline 2 years. You still cannot build within 100 blocks of them. Yes sometimes they never come back, but some players do come back and have the issue of having to ask someone to move as they thought "heck they'll never come back"
  
• Inactivity does not matter. If you build a town and plan to expand, but someone offline for 6 months is in the direction of expansion. This does not mean staff will remove the build. On rare occasions staff will remove builds or in certain circumstances. Staff only remove builds when they have been built within 100 blocks of the original builder.
  
• Furthermore, Staff will not world edit (W/E) a build to move it else where just for convenience. On rare occasions staff will W/E a build or use W/E to move a build if it is large and within 100 blocks of someone else. 
  
• Claiming land to own a 100 block radius. You need a 5x5x5 hut with a locked furnace or chest so staff are able to identify who owns the land just in case logs are removed.
  
• Do not claim a whole biome. Sometimes you have a project planned which will be huge, however setting a fence around a whole biome is unfair and is not allowed. If you build and take up the space of a biome then that is acceptable, however if you claim a whole biome without taking up the space, staff will ask you to remove claims. 
  
• Do not trespass. If you have been told "you are banned from my shop /warp shop" then you under no circumstances are allowed there. If you see a fence or building with [WARNING] DO NOT TRESPASS. Do not go on that land. You will be banned and have to appeal. 
  
• If you are told to leave an area, but player or staff. You must leave. 
  
• Please do not ask for your items to be respawned in. Only in rare circumstances will staff respawn items. If you have lost your God pickaxe, staff will not respawn it. If the server crashed, you were player killed or other server side errors, will staff then only respawn your items back. If it is a legit death, (you afk'ed and died) no items will be respawned. 
  
• Do not cause lag on purpose. Things like using /speed 10, /d slime size 100 etc. may cause lag on the server. Please try to refrain from causing lag. Furthermore make sure any redstone has an on/off switch to also reduce lag.
