General rules for Minecraft server

• 1. Be mature and respectful towards players & staff. This includes striving to not annoy users. Ongoing teasing/banter should be mutually enjoyed.

• 2. Do not clutter chat. This typically includes making words too long, spamming words/phrases (or general nonsense), or using excessive caps.

• 3. Listen to staff when instructed to do/not do something.

• 4. Do not argue with staff members doing their job in the chat. Dispute staff actions by raising concerns to the administration on our Discord.

• 5. Never impersonate a staff member.

• 6. Asking for a higher rank is discouraged.

• 7. While allowable under certain circumstances, please refrain from using any language other than English.

• 8. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, nazism, etc.. Staff discretion will be in effect to assess when something has crossed into this territory.

• 9. Do not exploit bugs, and please report any uncommon bugs to a staff member.

• 10. Do not do things that cause problematic lag/load on the server. Staff will be understanding of simple user error.

• 11. Hacking is not allowed. Minecraft game mods/client mods are to be used with caution, and are prohibited when they break other rules. Freecam and X-ray mods/clients are considered hacking, whereas Optifine & aesthetic shaders are typically fine. We recommend checking with staff before playing with a modified game.

• 12. If you see a hacker, please do not call them out in chat, and report them to a staff member using "/whisper <player> <message>".

• 13. Do not advertise anything on our servers (this includes other server IPs) without permission from an admin.

• 14. Please refrain from "officially" advertising Runsafe itself. While it is encouraged to bring friends and/or advertise your activity on the server, attempting to produce "official" Runsafe ads is prohibited.

• 15. Staff reserves the right to enforce rules & ban/unban at their discretion. While these rules offer general guidelines, Runsafe is a privately owned server, meaning you are able to play on it because you are being allowed to. Probably because we like you. You can appeal a ban on our Discord.

Survival rules for Minecraft server

• 1S. All general rules apply.

• 2S. Please don't complain excessively if your base is griefed, or if you are killed in PvP. Survival is a free-for-all world with PvP enabled.

• 3S. Do not beg people for things like food or items excessively.

• 4S. Logging out or warping away from PvP is currently discouraged. You are likely to be punished for breaking this rule after it has been clarified.

• 5S. Please strive to keep chicken farms down to 10 chickens or less. This can be done manually, with redstone, or by isolating single chickens over hoppers.

• 6S. Mods/clients that give a serious unfair advantage in Survival are strictly prohibited. We recommend checking with staff before playing with a modified game, especially if you are unsure on what they might deem "a serious unfair advantage".

Creative rules for Minecraft server

• 1C. All general rules apply.

• 2C. Before asking for another plot, strive to have your others look clean and finished.

• 3C. When using liquids (water/lava), make sure they do not run off the plot and into the road.

• 4C. Do not beg people to vote on your plot.

• 5C. No griefing in the Creative world. We even advise against griefing a plot that you have the owner's permission on. This is not the correct world for kicking sandcastles.

Rule Enforcement & Punishments

If a rule is broken, staff will assess the situation and take action as needed. Punishments often include being muted, kicked, banned, or the Troll rank. A rule break may only be met with a warning, or merely let go, under certain circumstances. Staff discretion is always in effect to account for unique situations. The purpose of the rules is to give players general guidelines for what staff wants. We are not looking to punish good players, nor define loopholes for troublemakers. This applies to both Minecraft and Discord.

List of Punishments can be found on our Punishments page.
