Our rules are to be taken as guidelines. We expect players to have common sense. Staff reserve the right to punish any player.
SERVER
GENERAL RULES
The following rules apply to all players at all times on Blithe SMP, and are enforced by the staff team. The Staff discuss player offences as a team and have final say over punishments.
Respect
This is a mature server. Think before you act: “Could what I am doing offend or hurt someone in some way?” If the answer is not a definite NO, rethink.
We have a zero tolerance policy for hate speech, harassment, or discriminatory language aimed at players and staff.
No political discussion.
No advertising other servers or solicitation of services for the server.
No griefing or raiding of other players builds.
Do not take from private farms with express permission from the primary owner.
Pranks, jokes and PVP are consent-based only and should reference the Pranks channel on Discord.
Chat
Blithe has players from all over the world, but Global chat should be in English only. Private party chats and messaging can be used for additional language needs.
Do not spam chats.
Issues with players or staff should be discussed in Support tickets, and not in global chat.
No inquiring about player punishments.
No obscene nicknames, names for builds etc…
Exploits
No exploiting unintended game mechanics.
No 3rd party modifications.
No duping — except for TNT.
No hacks, mods or resource packs that give unfair advantages (eg: x-ray, freecam, etc…)
Some mods have “fairplay” and “non-fairplay” versions. Ask staff if you are unsure whether a mod will be allowed on the server.
No AFK fishing.
AFK clicking is allowed.
Lag
No chunk loaders or lag machines.
No intentional entity cramming.
Villager halls must be at least 6 chunks away from other villager halls.
Villager halls must have no more than 48 villagers. (Including surrounding breeder/farming villagers)
Villager Breeders that can get “backed up” should be monitored by the player to decrease the chances of entity lag.
All mob farms must have on/off switches.
Players who lose items to client-side lag will unfortunately not be reimbursed.
Server
Staff have the right to ask players to move, redesign, or remove builds not in compliance with server rules.
Players should build at least 200 blocks from the claimed territory of other players. If you are unsure, reach out to staff.
Players are not permitted to build within Spawn limits, except in designated spaces (eg. Shopping District). Spawn encompasses a 500x500 block space, marked by an obsidian border.
Do not ping or DM staff members directly unless expressly asked/told to do so.
If you need to contact a staff member, ask in-game if anyone is available, or open a Support Ticket.
Punishments should only be discussed in a Support Ticket by the player who received it.
