🛡️ General Rules (Apply to All Servers)

1. Follow Staff Instructions
   If a staff member asks you to stop a topic, leave an area, or adjust your behavior, you are expected to comply. If you believe the request is unfair, create a ticket in our Discord and Management will investigate.
2. No Harassment
   Harassing other players is not allowed. This includes stalking, griefing near towns, false reporting, targeting vulnerable players, or any behavior considered physical or social harassment.
3. Preserve the Overworld
   Do not create eyesores in any Overworld. This includes lava casts, cobble monsters, mass fires, large craters, or widespread terrain destruction. These actions are only allowed in resource worlds.
4. No Unfair Gameplay Advantages
   Using cheats such as auto-clickers, x-ray, baritone, fly/killaura hacks, or taping keys is prohibited. Refer to our Allowed Mods list. If you’re unsure, ask a staff member or open a ticket.
5. No Scamming
   Scamming other players of in-game currency or items is not allowed. This includes misleading sales, deceptive renaming, price manipulation, or breaking agreed trades. Only trades involving in-game value are enforceable.
6. No Traps
   Do not create traps for unsuspecting players. This includes teleporting players into PvP zones, lava, falls, or redstone traps with malicious intent.
7. Keep Content Appropriate
   Skins, usernames, and builds must be free of NSFW content, drug references, gore, or offensive symbols/messages.
8. Alt Account Limits
   Players are allowed up to two Java accounts. If you share a home/IP with another player, please notify staff via a Discord ticket in advance.
9. No Punishment Evasion
   Using alternate accounts to bypass mutes, bans, or any punishment is not allowed.
10. Malicious Intent is Not Tolerated
    Any attempt to harm the server or its players—such as spreading hate, advertising other servers, doxxing, exploiting bugs, or crashing the server—will result in severe punishment without warning.

🏘️ Towny Rules

1. Respect Town Borders
   If you’re outlawed from a town or asked to leave a plot, you must leave immediately and stay at least 100 blocks away.
2. Warp Permissions
   Do not set warps in other towns without clear, documented permission. If permission is revoked, the warp must be removed. Warps without permission must be placed at least 100 blocks away from the town.
3. No Abuse of Town Permissions
   Do not exploit town roles to steal or sabotage. This includes draining bank funds, griefing, kicking players unfairly, or misusing permissions granted in error.
4. No Griefing or Interference
   Do not disrupt town expansion or aesthetics. This includes ring-claiming, destroying structures without permission, and placing grief structures like lava pyramids or walls.
5. No Unsolicited Town Invites
   Don’t spam invites to players without speaking to them first. Always ask before sending an invite and respect their decision.
6. Town-Specific Rules
   Towns may create their own internal rules, as long as they do not conflict with official MC Towny rules. If a player breaks a town-only rule, it is not enforceable by staff unless it also violates a global rule.

💬 Chat Rules (Apply Across All Servers)

1. No Spam or Chat Disruption
   Avoid repeating messages, flooding chat, spamming characters, excessive caps, stretched text, or using unusual fonts.
2. English Only in General Chat
   Entire messages or conversations must be in English. Occasional words or short phrases in other languages are fine.
3. No Punishment Talk
   Avoid discussing your or others’ active or past punishments in public chat or Discord.
4. No Promotional Auctions
   Do not auction renamed items to advertise your town, warp, or services. Applies to both /ah and chat auctions.
5. No Off-Topic Advertising
   Only MCT-related content may be promoted. This includes streams or MCT Discords. Personal content unrelated to MCT is not allowed. (MCT = MC Towny)
6. No NSFW or Inappropriate Topics
   Avoid discussing explicit content, hard drugs, substance abuse, gore, or anything unsuitable for a general Minecraft audience.
7. No Harassment in Chat
   Do not bully others or continue messaging someone after being asked to stop.
8. No Insults or Name-Calling
   Avoid cursing at others or making rude remarks. If you’re joking with friends, do it in private DMs to avoid confusion.
9. No Political Topics
   Discussions about politics including voting or beliefs, are not allowed to keep chat peaceful and inclusive.
10. No Staff Impersonation
    Do not pretend to be staff, make false claims of authority, or threaten punishment.
11. No Discrimination
    Any racist, sexist, or otherwise discriminatory comments will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
12. No Mute Evasion
    Bypassing mutes through signs, books, renamed items, or alt accounts is not allowed.

Note: Rules 1–9 are not enforced in private messages unless reported. However, rules 10 and 11 apply everywhere, and violations will be punished regardless of reports.

Off-Platform Harassment
Targeting a player through rumors, misinformation, or attempts to isolate them due to outside issues will result in punishment. Don’t use off-platform issues as a reason to exclude or mistreat someone on MC Towny. If there’s a rule violation, report it—don’t gossip.
