Short, fair,
and for everyone

Rules exist so the server stays worth playing on. There aren't many, and they are enforced the same way for everyone — including staff.

Placeholder notice: this is the starter ruleset. The admin team should edit this file (src/content/rules.mdx) before launch — the site renders whatever is written here.

The short version

Don't be the reason someone quits the game.

General conduct

• No harassment, slurs, or hate speech — in chat, tribe names, character names, or sign spam. This is the one instant-ban rule.
• Keep global chat readable. Beef belongs in tribe chat or the arena.
• No advertising other servers or clusters.

Fair play

• No cheating, exploiting, meshing, duping, or third-party tools that touch the game. Evidence-based reports get action; witch hunts don't.
• One account per player. Alt accounts used to dodge limits or bans are treated as the same player.
• Intentionally crashing or lagging a server (lag machines, cap abuse) is a ban, not a warning.

Building & land

• Don't block obelisks, major cave entrances, resource-rich spawns, or transmitters others need.
• Pillar/foundation spam to claim land you aren't using gets demolished without notice.
• Abandoned structures decay per server settings; admins may sweep obvious wreckage early to keep maps healthy.

Reporting & appeals

• Report issues through Discord with screenshots, coordinates, and times.
• Every ban can be appealed once, in writing, in the Discord appeals channel. Appeals are read by a human, not decided in public.
