Won't make the mistake of putting a wo.... kidding Uh i mean, I wont make the mistake of putting a new moderator as an admin. None of them have ever worked out.
I personally disagree on a few minor points here and there (mostly some of the listed temp. ban times), they should have gotten more input from more people in my opinion (the entire thing screams it was written by only Shanara, lol), but other than that, they needed updating, so that's good.
I haven't read yet, I don't have set rules about Banning and tempbanning. We use a, What the staff who did it decides, and always will. We don't have any set guidelines for temp banning or banning for that matter really, Ill need to look though it more EDIT: Wow, OK i had to edit quite a lot. Fixed now though.
A few of the ones I disagree with: 4 A) If a building is constructed by more than 1 player, the owner will be the one who placed most blocks. In case of tie, the one with a longer name. Why is this a thing? ^ 5 D) Buildings on a faction can only be removed by their owner. If the owner is no longer a player (banned, and appeal closed), or has been absent for more than 1 month, the FA can remove the building. A mod will have to check if this player has been indeed absent for one month. One month is a loooong time for factions ^ Pvp in a house is listed as a two day ban, but stacked potions is a three day ban? I feel house pvp is at least equally as severe, if not more. A faction can only declare war once every three months. The average length of time a map has lasted since I've been here is about 3 months. That length of time should be shorter, maybe 1 or 2 weeks. ^
I see your point, however i seem to have missed this stuff. I did just highly edit it, go ahead and read. Ill fix this stuff too.
2 D) Any aggression (PvPing) initiated in a HOUSE Incomplete sentence. 5 D) Buildings on a faction can only be removed by their owner. If the owner is no longer a player (banned, and appeal closed), or has been absent for more than 1 month, the FA can remove the building. A mod will have to check if this player has been indeed absent for one month. 1 month is too long. 2 weeks is good since that's the time it takes before a player is autokicked for being inactive. Also, can FM's remove buildings if they have the permission of the FA? What if a player get's kicked, can his house be removed, to clear land for other players?
2 C If requested to leave a building by its owner, if there is a valid reason behind it. A good, old rule, phrased in a way that no one will ever understand it. Maybe a result of editing? I don't know. Same with 2D Nothing mentioning leaving 1x1 tunnels in the ground to serve as traps counting as grief is mentioned, unlike the old rules Nothing mentioning possession of spawned items being illegal is defined at all in these rules. It's defined in the donor rules, but why would a normal member read through the donor rules if they haven't donated? Under definitions: Scatological: (blank) Don't understand why this is under the definitions, who's really ever going to use it, but either way, it's blank. Here's a definition though: sca·tol·o·gy[skuh-tol-uh-jee]Show IPAnoun1.the study of or preoccupation with excrement or obscenity. 2.obscenity, especially words or humor referring to excrement. 3.the study of fossil excrement. I'd bet aria they meant the second definition.
Ha, thought we went through this already... We really don't need a THIRD admin in my opinion. We'd then have 4 mods and 3 admins, which seems a bit ridiculous to me. Though mafia should be headadmin if that still exists, *hint*hint* Anyways, off topic. Rules. New. Discuss.
When I told Bob that mafia might become a head admin, he left our party and almost killed me on hc. Good thing I jumped off the bridge. C:
I don't want anyone to question what i have edited, "Incomplete sentence" @Yuriyo Really? <-- Notice capital "R". Perfect grammar isn't something i'm worried about. I left it as a month to remove a building, because i think its not that big of a deal. @Bagabundoman Why does he deserve headadmin? I am pretty sure he isn't on Jimbo's level just yet, I mean relationship between us wise.. I wrote the first list of rules when we had less then 30 Members, we used that for the next 35,000 Or so (counting old members on old forums), Most of them made not much sense, Yet you are all nitpicking about the smallest detail. I don't understand.
it says eploiting any glitch not found in vanilla minecraft as if vanilla glitches were allowed to be exploited i know it's illegal
I said incomplete sentence because I thought that you had more to add, since that made no sense to me, and won't make sense to the other hundreds who read it.
I see : O. Could we add a rule such as " A player can not constantly pvp, and/or stay outside another player's house for an extended period of time with ill intent." (example, a player who camps outside of another's house for 10 minutes straight and kills him everytime he walks out. And adding the spawned items bit as baga said, such as it's illegal to give/sell/pvp with/ or be in posession of spawned items while in a pvp enviroment.
