OneSMP Rules
Why We Have The Rules We Do
These rules exist to protect the kind of server OneSMP is: fair, mature, and enjoyable long-term. Respect and common sense apply throughout the community.
Game Rules
Game Rules
These cover gameplay, claims, fairness, and the general standards expected on the server itself.
1
Respect the community
Treat other players respectfully and keep the server welcoming, mature, and enjoyable long-term.
1A
No slurs, harassment, targeted attacks, baiting, spam, or toxic behavior that drags down the experience for others.
1B
Filtered words are still prohibited even if someone tries to dodge the filter with altered spelling, spacing, or symbols.
1C
Political and religious discussion is only acceptable while it stays respectful and does not create conflict.
1D
If you disagree with a staff decision, appeal privately by emailing [email protected] instead of arguing publicly.
2
Play fair
Progress, PvP, resources, and builds should come from fair play rather than cheats, abuse, or loopholes.
2A
No hacked clients, duplication methods, X-Ray, unfair exploits, or anything that gives an illegitimate advantage.
2B
No alternate accounts for unfair advantage, storage abuse, ban evasion, or punishment evasion.
2C
Abusing plugin bugs or unintended mechanics is still considered cheating. Report issues to staff instead of using them.
3
Respect claims, bases, and public areas
Give other players room to build, preserve shared infrastructure, and avoid taking from active players.
3A
You may loot from clearly abandoned, unclaimed structures only after reasonably confirming they are inactive and not protected nearby.
3B
Do not grief abandoned builds even if they are unclaimed. Leave worlds cleaner than you found them.
3C
Respect buffers around homes and bases. Do not crowd, block in, trap, or claim over other players.
3D
Public infrastructure such as roads, hubs, farms, and railways should not be altered or griefed without permission from the owner or organizer.
4
Do not harm server performance
Builds and farms should be designed responsibly so they do not degrade the experience for everyone else.
4A
No lag machines or intentionally abusive redstone, mob, or farm setups.
4B
Staff may ask for lag-heavy builds to be modified, limited, relocated, or removed.
4C
Builds that intentionally cause performance problems for players or the server may be removed by staff without reimbursement.
Staff are here to keep the server fair and enjoyable, and may act when needed even beyond what is written word-for-word in the rules. If you have concerns, bring them to staff privately rather than starting public arguments.
