Claims belonging to inactive players expire automatically after a period of 60 days (Locks on chests, however, are indefinite). After this period, users may ask an admin to overtake an abandoned claim. Claims that are left abandoned for prolonged periods of time may be rolled-back and deleted to ensure the world has space for everyone. If you are concerned about losing your claim, you may create a ticket or alert an admin to your situation. Any structures that are subject to deletion will be backed-up first and later able to be restored should the owner become active later.

WoopMC aims to be a fun, safe, and inclusive place for everyone to play. In order to achieve this, we expect all players to follow the rules of our network. By choosing to play on WoopMC, use the website, or communicate in our Discord server, you must agree to follow the rules listed on this page.

Minecraft rules

Survival

1 - Do not disrupt gameplay
Respect other players and allow everyone to have an enjoyable time on the server. Do not:
  • Pester, annoy, or harass other players purposefully, especially if you are asked to stop. (Eg. Do not continue to kill or attack players who wish to be left alone or release the private information of other players.)
  • Do not purposefully cause lag or build laggy structures (such as large automated farms and hopper arrays).
  • Do not overload areas of the server with entities or attempt to bypass entity cramming.
2 - No griefing
Griefing is the act of destroying or modifying a creation without permission. While playing on WoopMC, griefing is strictly forbidden.

Griefing includes:

  • Destroying any structure (claimed or unclaimed) without permission from the owner
  • Killing/stealing livestock or animals in a private claim or near it
  • Building within 4 chunks (64 blocks) of someone else’s land claim or town without permission
  • Harvesting someones crops/trees without replanting
  • Maliciously claiming the blocks of another player’s build as your own without their approval
Claims belonging to inactive players expire automatically after the lands runs out of funding. After this period, users may ask an admin to overtake an abandoned area. Claims that are left abandoned for prolonged periods of time may be deleted to ensure the world has space for everyone. If you are concerned about losing your lands claim, you may create a ticket or alert an admin to your situation.
3 - No spamming
Spamming is the action of sending repetitive or unwarranted messages. The following is considered spam:
  • Sending duplicate messages over a short period of time
  • Sending messages in rapid succession
  • Long strings of keyspam (keyspam is fine by itself, but don’t send entire message-lengths of it)
  • IP addresses or domains of other servers or websites not relevant to WoopMC (you may mention the names of other communities in conversation as long as you are not doing so to recruit players)
  • Using the Discord Chat Sync Channels (#general-mc channel) when not engaged in a conversation, using it to bypass chat restrictions, or sending one-word messages
  • Leaving and joining in succession (barring connection issues)
  • Asking for ranks or staff positions in public channels
  • Backseat-modding (moderating/enforcing the rules in place of staff)
4 - Keep the server appropriate
WoopMC aims to be a safe and fun environment for all. As a result, certain topics and actions are not to occur on the WoopMC network. Chat should aim to be suitable for a PG-13 audience.
  • As minors may be present in the chat, all mature conversation (18+ topics) is prohibited.
  • Extreme vulgar language is unacceptable.
  • Offensive builds are unacceptable.
  • Heavy discourse, drama, and potentially triggering subject matter.
  • Political discussion, partisan argument, etc.
  • Infrequent swearing is acceptable, however we have a 0 tolerance policy for slurs and hate speech. Do not attempt to bypass the server's filter.
  • No inappropriate skins, usernames (nicknames or IGNs), or items.
  • Do not use WoopMC as a dating service.
  • Do not engage in inappropriate roleplay.
  • Do not use proximity chat functions to circumvent these rules.
5 - No unfair mods, exploits, or hacks
While playing on our server, you are forbidden from using mods, hacked clients, bugs, or exploits which grant you unfair advantages over other players or substantially alter gameplay. However, certain mod categories are permissible and are listed below:
  • Client performance mods - Mods which aim to increase the FPS or performance of the game client; such as Optifine, Sodium, etc.
  • Cosmetic/Aesthetic mods - Mods which enhance the visual appearance of Minecraft. Shaders, Better Foliage, Ambient Sounds, etc. are allowed as long as they do not grant a gameplay advantage (such as making solid blocks transparent).
  • HUD mods - Mods which add extra HUD elements to the display. Minimap mods (without radar), Compass GUI, health indicators, Better Chat, Potion/Armor HUDS are allowed.
If you have any questions regarding allowed mods, please contact a staff member!
6 - Use server plugins and features as intended
We use plugins to enhance gameplay and provide a unique and fun experience to players. We understand that it may take time to get used to certain plugins and gameplay changes, but please do not exploit the plugins we provide for personal gain or try to bypass moderation.
  • Do not circumvent chat filters.
  • Don’t use plugin features unfairly. (This overlaps with other rules, such as no exploits or claiming structures belonging to others.)
  • Do not abuse glitches or oversights to gain advantages over other players.
  • Do not use multiple accounts to gain unfair advantages, spy/backdoor, or otherwise abuse in-game mechanics. Not limited to but including,
    • Gain starting kits or starting wealth
    • List additional items on the auction house past the set limit per account.
