Rules & Guidelines

Rules serve as a fair standard to ensure everyone has a good experience on LifeOnMC. Paid or free, everyone has to follow the rules equally.

  Pre-note:  

Have you been griefed or killed without consent?


Do you find someone annoying?


Having a bad day?

  Social interactions:  

Ensuring a friendly chat is very important to LifeOnMC, where we want everyone, no matter their age or differences to feel welcome. Below are examples of things you should avoid in chat, which modifications we allow, and other behavior guidelines. These rules apply to Minecraft, Discord, signs, books, holograms, renamed items, and letters that are built with blocks.

Disrespectful & Inappropriate Behavior:

Everyone at LifeOnMC deserves a drama-free and respectful time. Being passive aggressive or generally creating a negative atmosphere will be handed a warning, followed up by revoked chat privileges, or ban. Depending on the situation.

Inappropriate Language & Discussion:

Be respectful—refrain from using inappropriate language and avoid discussing controversial topics like politics, religion, sexual-orientation, and other sensitive subjects that may not be suitable for everyone.

These topics have no place in a Minecraft server due to the nature of children being around, and the general idea of people wanting to relax on the game, away from real life topics such as these. However, if you want to talk about these topics, you may do so in private messages if both people consent to the topic beforehand.

Failing to do so, can lead to punishment, depending on the situation, reports, and the content of your message(s).


Spamming:

Avoid spamming: do not repeat your messages unless a few minutes have passed if your question may have been missed. Also, avoid asking for countdowns or sharing song lyrics that could disrupt the chat.


Sharing Others' Information:

Be respectful and don't share secrets or make jokes about private things. This also means not trying to trick others into sharing their personal info. It's important to create a safe and trusting space for everyone.


Advertising & Promotion:

No advertising for other websites, servers, or things not related to LifeOnMC or Riftland. It's okay to promote LifeOnMC or RiftLand stuff, but remember to avoid spamming. Riftland is our other server (java only), which has a lot of custom content, resourcepack, crates, still non-p2w, quests, and more. Find out more by going to riftland.com.


Threats & Harm Encouragement:

Don't say things that might hurt or threaten others—even if you think it's a joke. Do not encourage others to hurt themselves in real life.


  Game Behavior:  

All users on LifeOnMC are held to an equal standard. Our aim is to provide an enjoyable experience for all players, and individuals who are found to deliberately ruin another person's enjoyment on the server will be punished accordingly.

Killing/Trapping/Attacking Players:

When you want to fight, trap, or overall kill players, you need consent.
This is a friendly server, with the allowance to PVP in order to keep the vanilla experience, and we understand it comes with risks due to bad actors. If you have been attacked, killed, or trapped without consent, please make a ticket on our Discord. We have an advanced rollback system so rest-assured your items will be restored guaranteed, even if the bad actor decides to throw the items in lava or any other destructive method.

Important note: You are always safe from players inside your claimed area.


Griefing & Trolling:

Having fun is important, but your fun might not be fun to others, remember that!
Don't mess with other peoples' build, areas, personal space, or private messages unless you have permission.


Stealing & Scamming:

Taking items from other players without permission is not allowed. 

Exception: Unclaimed containers are allowed to be taken, so make sure to claim them.

Actively participating in sales or trades with the intent to withhold agreed-upon items is not allowed and will be met with consequences. In other words: Deals you make with other people need to be met, no fooling or scamming people.

Important note: If you are making a deal or trade with someone, do it on the server using /msg or public chat, in order for all the logs to be verified. This way, people will not be able to create fake screenshots.


Inappropriate Names, Skins, Items & Builds:


Lying & Misleading:

When making a report, it is crucial you do not falsify proof or lie to the staff members. If you are found trying to get someone wrongly punished with false reports, will lead to a temporary or permanent suspension, and/or revoked reporting abilities or other punishments suitable for the situation. Falsifying proof is highly frowned upon and will be taken seriously.



  Cheating & Exploiting:  

This is a casual server, cheating is not needed. If you are found to be using disallowed modifications or exploits, you will be banned.

Modifications:

Using mods or scripts that gives unfair advantage is not allowed. Below is a list of allowed and disallowed mods.

Allowed:


Disallowed:


Exploiting:

Using exploits such as unintended server bugs or duplication methods is not allowed. If you find a game-breaking issue, report it to a staff member right away.

We have a lot of advanced anti-exploit measures, but the rule is still here. Attempts of creating duplication machines or other similar exploits still lead to a ban.


Your mods, your responsibility:

When using mods, it is your responsibility to ensure that they are safe; that they do not contain malware; they do not run unintentional scripts, or run malicious actions. By using mods on LifeOnMC, you agree to the consequences that comes with using disallowed, unsafe, or unverified mods.


  Player Report Policy  

Each case will be handled appropriately with the assumption of innocent at the start unless the case is extreme.


Note: If the reported player is not in the Discord, an attempt of asking them in-game should be made, and if no reply from them still, will be assumed guilty.
