⚠ IMPORTANT
Breaking these rules will result in warnings, mutes, kicks, temporary bans, or permanent bans depending on severity. Staff decisions are final. If you have questions, ask in Discord.
01
BE RESPECTFUL
Treat all players and staff with respect. Hate speech, racism, sexism, and targeted harassment of any kind will not be tolerated. Disagreements happen — keep them civil.
02
NO GRIEFING
Do not destroy, steal from, or modify other players' builds without explicit permission. This includes unclaimed land that is clearly being developed. Griefing is an immediate ban.
03
NO CHEATING OR EXPLOITS
Hacked clients, X-ray, duplication exploits, and automation that violates the intended gameplay are banned. If you're unsure whether something is allowed, ask staff in Discord first.
04
KEEP CHAT CLEAN
No excessive swearing, spam, flooding, or inappropriate language in public channels. Advertising other servers or products is strictly prohibited. Keep conversations family-friendly in global chat.
05
DO NOT STEAL
Taking items from another player's storage, farm, or builds — even if unlocked — is theft. Always ask before taking. Unclaimed chests near player bases are still off-limits.
06
PVP RULES
PvP is only allowed with mutual consent from both parties. Do not kill other players without agreement. No kill-on-sight. Trapping other players is prohibited.
07
RESPECT THE ENVIRONMENT
Avoid excessive terrain destruction, lava dumping, floating trees, and unfinished builds near spawn or other players. Leave areas better than you found them.
08
NO LAG MACHINES
Do not build contraptions that intentionally cause server lag. This includes excessive mob farms without kill mechanisms, infinite item loops, and high-frequency redstone clocks. Staff may remove them without warning.
09
FOLLOW STAFF INSTRUCTIONS
Comply with reasonable requests from server staff. If you believe a staff member is acting unfairly, report it in Discord via a support ticket — do not argue in public chat.
10

MODPACK RULES
- Use only the official ScaleBound modpack — no extra client mods unless approved by staff.
- Do NOT update individual mods. Modpack updates are pushed server-side.
- Report crashes or mod conflicts in the #bug-reports channel on Discord.
- Some mods have powerful mechanics — use them fairly and don't exploit unintended behaviors.
