Above all, {{SITENAME}} is a Minecraft community server. While individual ages vary, all conversation on this server must be suitable for minors. While moderate swearing is acceptable, all channels must otherwise stay “PG-13”. This means no NSFW or 18+ content. If you’re unsure whether or not content is unacceptable, please first message an admin/mod before posting. Sharing inappropriate materials will result in an instant Kick/Ban.
This includes unsolicited references and links to other social media, servers, communities, and services in chat or direct messages. This includes asking people to check your profile or DM you with the intent of advertising.


Furthermore, if someone is uncomfortable with a particular topic and asks for the conversation to change, please have the courtesy to do so without argument. It's important that this community be safe and welcoming for people of all ages.

Disrupting the chat through spam is a bannable offense. “Spam” is defined as:

* Sending duplicate messages, or sending messages in rapid succession
* Repeating similar bot commands
* Excessive Emoji
* Using the DiscordSRV (<code>#general-mc</code>, and similar channels) when not engaged in a conversation, using it to bypass chat restrictions, or sending one-word messages.
* Long strings of keyspam (key spam is fine by itself, but don’t send entire message-lengths of it)
* Mass-mentioning a user or users (It’s acceptable to mention a user or mentionable-role [such <code>@Mausterio</code> or <code>@Staff</code>] a few times, but do not do so with the intent to annoy.)
* Advertisement or promotion without prior approval.

While you are still encouraged to warn us if you feel a particular individual poses a threat to our community, we cannot be expected to ban, warn, or otherwise punish, people for situations that occurred outside our jurisdiction.

Respect staff while on this server. If a staff member asks you to stop, please do so without question (even if the action in question is not covered in any server rules).  
 


If you disagree, or otherwise have any questions, please contact the staff member through Direct Message. In most cases, simply explaining the situation to staff outside of the server will assist both parties in explaining their sides. As long as you’re cordial, you cannot be punished for talking to a staff member via DMs!
