Thank you for joining us on one of our favourite places, our server. We're excited about Minevictus, and are always happy to meet people who feel the same way. We want everyone to get the most out what we provide and our community, so we ask that you please read and follow these guidelines. Please enjoy your visit here!

👍 Respect towards players

We pride ourselves on having freedom of speech, as long as you are being respectful. Keep in mind that there is a large variation in the age and identity of players on the server. You might be asked by our representatives to take the conversation elsewhere in the interest of protecting the youth and allowing everyone to feel comfortable.

That being said, joking and swearing is allowed in a fun manner, but be ethical.

Having an opinion is fine, but keep in mind that there is a fine line between stating your opinion and being disrespectful. Minevictus allows civil debates but not non-civil or heated arguments (or politics) should be kept in personal messages.

There will be absolutely be no hate speech or bullying. We do not tolerate harassment, be it sexual or not. Nor do we allow any sort of toxicity or racism/discrimination towards any players or groups of people.

Summary:

Don't be an ass.

You can say whatever you please so long as you're ethical, civil, and do not harass others.

Any form for toxicity, racism, discrimination, and other unethical violations will be harshly punished.

🙇‍♀️ Chat restrictions

In order to keep the chat enjoyable for everyone on the platforms of Minevictus, spamming and advertising third parties is not allowed and may get you punished to the discretion of our representatives.

We don’t appreciate questions about obtaining free ranks or permissions. Most purchasable features are obtainable through our in-game systems. Type /buy on the server for more information about every perk you're able to earn.

There is a fine line between advertising and mentioning. We allow subtle mentioning of your YouTube channel for example. However, do not misuse this luxury and blatantly advertise third parties.

Summary:

Keep chat clean. Be nice.

You will not get free ranks, permissions, or the likes. You can view and purchase at /buy ingame.

Do not advertise blatantly; we're happy to check out your YouTube channel if you have something fun to show us, but not so much if that's your entire goal.

💥 Griefing guidelines

There is a zero tolerance towards intentional griefing. We review each case of griefing separately, meaning that if it’s a minor grief and you genuinely weren’t aware of what was going on, we may take that into consideration. Do not take this lightly since we want to create a safe environment for everyone online.

It is very important that everyone understands what may be perceived as griefing by our representatives. The general understanding by the community of griefing is;

deliberately vandalizing builds;
stealing items from players;
making changes without permission;
killing players against their will;
any of the above in unclaimed or claimed territory.

If you have any further questions about what may or may not be deemed as griefing, please message a staff member in-game or ask the question under the #support channel in our Discord server which you can find here.

Summary:

Griefing and stealing is not allowed. If you didn't make it, it's not yours to touch, no matter its claim status.

If people don't want you to kill them over and over, tell them about /pvp and stop killing them; don't be an ass.

🌵 Modded clients

We are fairly liberal when it comes to using modded clients, as long as your client modifications do not give you an advantage over other players. There many hacks and/or forms for un-"Notchian" changes which we don’t allow including, but not limited to, X-Ray (including resource-packs), auto-clickers and flight exploits.

However, we do allow modifications which don't have a big game-changing effect such as, but not limited, to every feature of OptiFine or minimap modifications without X-Ray, cave-finder, and equivalent features enabled.

Anything "Notchian" is something which was intended upon by Mojang and/or Notch/Markus Persson. This means anything which might have been added by their team(s).

Summary:

Cheating in any way is a big no-no.

Use legitimate mods (OptiFine is great, x-ray is not).

Any minimap which shows stuff such as caves and mobs are not allowed.

💡 Honorable mentions

Upon any punishment which one deems unfair, it is possible to contact to contact the staff member who has issued the punishment to absolve it, elaborate or come to an agreement. Note that we have internal guidelines, however, it is to our discretion to issue punishments without reference to these rules.

If for any reason you wish to file a complain about a certain punishment or wish to get a one-off unban from your permanent ban, please post in the Ban Appeals section of this forum.

Summary:

Tell us if you think something unfair happens.

Did you get banned? Appeal your ban here, and you might have it be real short.
