TrippySMP rules (player-facing)

Short version: build, trade, form nations, fight in sieges. Do not cheat, do not grief near towns, do not be a creep in chat.

1. Accounts and fair play

• One Minecraft account per person. Alt accounts are banned permanently on both accounts.
• No hacked clients, macros, auto-clickers, x-ray, or exploits. Report exploits in a ticket; using one is a permanent ban.
• No real-money trading of in-game items, coins, land, or accounts. The store is the only place money enters the game.
• Chargebacks on a legitimate purchase result in a permanent ban. Contact us first, we refund mistakes.

2. Land and griefing

• Griefing inside claims is impossible. Griefing within 5 chunks of any claim, or on inter-town roads, rails and ice roads, is a ban. Deep wilderness is fair game but is rolled back if a mod judges it spite.
• No claim blocking, claim arms, spaghetti claims, or "anchor" towns founded only to block a neighbour. Staff will remove the claims and warn once.
• Towns over their claim cap can be takeover-claimed by neighbours after 30 days of existence. The homeblock is never taken.
• Town and nation names must be real places or plausible names. No slurs, no impersonating real leaders.

3. PvP and war

• PvP is on everywhere in the wilderness and in the mines. PvP is off inside towns unless the plot is an Arena.
• Wars happen only through sieges. Siege sessions run Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 18:00 to 21:00 UK time. New towns are immune for 30 days.
• Combat logging is death. A 20-second combat tag applies.
• No spawn camping, no trapping players with teleports, no killing players inside spawn or the tutorial. New players cannot take player damage for their first 60 minutes.
• Keep-inventory is on inside siege zones and near towns, with 5% gear damage. Outside those areas you drop your items.

4. Chat and community

• English in global chat. Any language in town, nation, and private chat.
• No harassment, hate, threats, doxxing, or sexual content. Zero tolerance.
• No advertising other servers, Discords, or products.
• No spam, no caps walls, no scamming in trades (use /trade for player trades).
• Staff decisions can be appealed in a ticket. Arguing in chat is a mute.

5. Store

• Ranks and cosmetics are cosmetic and convenience only. Nobody can buy gear, claims, or combat advantages.
• Crates are cosmetic-only with published odds.

Punishments

Warn, then mute or kick, then temporary ban, then permanent ban. Cheating, alts, RMT, doxxing and griefing near towns skip straight to a ban. Every ban is backed by logs or screenshots and can be appealed once.
