Server Rules:

1. No abusing glitches / duping items - If you find a glitch, please report it to an FMod privately. Using glitches to your own advantage is not allowed.

2. No hacked clients - The use of clients to give an unfair advantage over other players is prohibited.

3. No x-ray mods or texture packs- Using modifications for x-raying is a bannable offense.

4. No nether portal raiding - Creating a nether portal that spawns in someone else's base is against the rules.

5. No ender pearl glitching - Using or attempting to glitch into or out of an area using ender pearls is classed as an unfair advantage and is therefore punishable.

6. No extremely laggy machines - FMods and Admins will determine whether your machine is too laggy or not. If you're unsure, please contact one to prevent any punishments.

7. Do not log off inside an enemy base - When logging off, you must be outside of enemy bases.

8. Do not use macros or autoclickers - Using any modifications to enhance your PvP skills such as autoclickers and macros gives a massive unfair advantage and will result in a ban.

9. Do not use a second faction to claim around a primary faction's claim - Using other accounts to create different claims is not allowed.

10. Do not attempt to block glitches - Attempting to block glitches carries the goal of abusing glitches or harming the server, both of which are punishable offenses and in no way acceptable.

11. Do not use alternate accounts to store items - This is an unfair advantage for other players as it makes your items unreadable.

Cheating And Glitching

Cheating, Glitching, Abusing bugs, or using external clients/devices to gain an unfair advantage is not allowed, and can result in up to a Permanent ban depending on the severity of the situation. A list of unfair mods is described below.

Grace/SOTW

Raiding, stealing items, entering bases, interfering with bases being built, overclaiming, claiming within their buffer, setting homes in others bases, claiming unclaimed bases, leaking coordinates to bases, and anything else that would interfere with a base being built during grace is prohibited.

IRL Trading

Doing trades for IRL Currency such as (PayPal, Website, Cash APP, Gift Cards, or Venmo) is prohibited and will lead to a punishment. This is due to security reasons, and to prevent legal issues in the future. If you do this even though it is against the Server's Terms the seller's account will be banned and possibly seek out by legal teams. If you do buy something from these so on "black markets" it is 100% against Minecraft's TOS, our TOS, and Rules, and we provide no Seller Protection.

Leaving Combat

You may not combat log while you are combat tagged, teleporting away with commands, leaving the game, and more are counted as combat logging. (THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO BEING COMBAT TAGGED. YOU CAN TP OUT WHEN OUT OF COMBAT TAG)

Faction Limits and Naming

Factions must be named appropriately and follow the chat rules. Factions cannot have more than the limit 5  in a team. (This will most probably change every new map)  You can only have 1 alliance between other factions. You can have unlimited enemies.

Home Rules

Setting a home in a base that has been inside or if you’ve left the team  is not allowed. If a base has been made at your home, do not raid it and open a support ticket so we can resolve the issue. You also may not log out of an account in someone's base.

Base Building

Bases can only be a 20 chunk buffer (where walls can go) the primary inside can not be bigger than 4x4 chunks. The only blocks that can be used to build walls or inside floors are sand, cobblestone, obsidian, water, and lava. No more than 35 sand walls can be used on each side of a base. "Regen Walls" are not permitted on a base. You cannot water log any value inside of your base, or put water around any value/chests (Meaning water cannot be touching your spawners or chests).

Multiple Bases

You can have multiple bases (max of 4). Majority of them must be used for farms, only 3 of the bases you have can be used for spawners to be placed down and/or farmed for value.

Patching

You must wait 10 minutes after the last tnt shot to gen patch. You also must wait 30 minutes after the last tnt shot to pick up any value. If you destroy the raiders cannon you MUST still wait the time.

Small Boxes

Corner Claims

You must build a base in a corner claim, a base must be built within 1 day of the claim being down.

Picking Up Value

Taking value during a raid is not permitted, you must wait 30 minutes after a raid to move value. Heres the deal with picking up value during a raid. If the raiding team fully breaches a base and then they pickup, 100% of the value will be given to the raiding team. If they pickup mid raid, and the other team has not breached, only 35% of the value will be given to a opposing team.


Hiding Value
Moving bases must have the value moved quickly within 60 minutes of the value being removed from one base to be moved to another.

You may also not hide/list Faction Top Value in the AuctionHouse. After you are raided you have 24 hours to build a new base and have spawners.

You may not overclaim/use cannons whilst you have a shield activated, or overclaim/use cannons against some one with a shield activated

Raiding A Base Under Construction
After a base has begun construction, you are not allowed to raid it for 24hours of that base being made. This gives the team enough time to setup defenses.

Unclaimed Bases

Farms are allowed to be unclaimed, but keeping major value such as multiple god sets, ftop value, and more is not allowed.

Joining Factions

By Joining a faction, you are willing to give the ownership of the value you place down such as, spawners, kits, and more will be transferred to the faction leader unless admin overrides, you cannot pick up the value you place down if you leave the faction. The faction's owner also cannot invite people, kick them instantly without reason and steal their value. This does not mean the faction owner can take all the value and dip, or trash all the value, they can only take around 50% and can take more if it is worked out in a ticket.

Insiding

You cannot raid a faction after you leave or are kicked. You’ll have to wait 24 hours before you can raid the faction. You cannot take value from the faction, teleport others into the base, or leak the cords to the base. You must unset any homes on any account that you have at the bases. You can also not raid/take value from a insided faction.

Raiding

You may 100% raid bases on the server, but the way you raid might be not allowed, you may build cannons, and break into bases, but you may not use withers to break in, get teleported into the base by someone who is inside, or is on the team, or glitch into the base.
