Minecraft rules

M1. Zero tolerance for unfair advantages. Duping, glitch abuse, bug or loophole exploitation, hacked or cracked clients, X-ray, ore-revealing minimaps, unauthorized automation and any other unfair advantage are prohibited. Do not use, distribute, trade or hide exploit gains, or help others exploit. Stop immediately and report discoveries privately; do not reproduce them on the live network without explicit staff permission.

M2. Cheating penalties. For an M1 violation, staff choose the first punishment based on evidence and severity, up to a permanent network ban. After that punishment has been served, another confirmed M1 offense results in a permanent network-wide account ban. Changing accounts, servers or exploit methods does not reset this history. IP bans are reserved for confirmed attempts to evade a ban; sharing an IP alone is not proof.

M3. No progression boosting. Do not request, give, sell, loan or otherwise transfer items, access or services that bypass a player's current progression. Do not supply new players with mid, late or end game gear. Normal cooperation is allowed only when everyone has legitimately reached the relevant progression.

M4. Consent to PvP. PvP requires the other player's explicit, current consent. Random killing, spawn killing, traps, indirect damage, pet attacks or repeated attacks without consent are prohibited. Consent can be withdrawn; stop when asked. Entering a PvP-enabled area is not consent by itself.

M5. Protect players and their work. Griefing, theft, unauthorized access, claim bypassing, destructive pranks and harming another player's builds, machines, animals or belongings are prohibited. Unclaimed property is not automatically abandoned or free to take; ask staff if ownership is unclear.

M6. Server performance. Do not intentionally lag or crash the network. Keep machines, farms, entities and chunk loading within published limits and follow staff performance directions. Staff may disable or remove setups causing lag or instability, with immediate action when needed to protect the server.

M7. Shared progression access. Do not claim, block, monopolize or destroy structures, entrances, resources or areas needed for shared progression. Do not trap spawn or public routes. Follow posted world, exploration and reset restrictions and staff instructions about access.

M8. Accounts and pack restrictions. Use a legitimate Minecraft account and the supported pack. Follow the current banned-item list and published server limits. Do not use alternate accounts, automation or cross-server transfers to bypass progression, claims, cooldowns or restrictions. Follow the Minecraft EULA and Microsoft Services Agreement.
