ElyriaMC – Server Rules

Last updated: 1 January 2026


1. Respectful Behaviour

  • All players must treat others with respect, regardless of experience level, rank, or playstyle.

  • Harassment, hate speech, discrimination, slurs, threats, or encouragement of harm are strictly prohibited.

  • Targeted harassment, dogpiling, stalking, or repeated provocation of a player is not allowed.

  • Staff instructions must be followed respectfully and without public argument.

  • Toxic behaviour that disrupts the community may be punished even if not explicitly listed.


2. Fair Play, Mods & Exploits

  • Hacked clients, cheats, X-ray, ESP, automation, or any unfair gameplay advantage are prohibited.

  • Using bugs, duplication glitches, exploits, or unintended mechanics for personal gain is not allowed.

  • Macros or scripts that automate gameplay beyond vanilla behaviour are prohibited.

  • Performance and visual mods are allowed only if they provide no gameplay advantage.

  • Players are responsible for ensuring all mods comply with server rules.

  • If unsure whether something is allowed, ask staff before using it.


3. PvP, Griefing & Player Conflict

  • PvP is enabled in Survival.

  • Players engage in PvP at their own risk and accept the possibility of item loss.

  • PvP is allowed anywhere unless explicitly protected or restricted.

  • Spawn camping, kill looping, or repeatedly targeting the same player with malicious intent may be treated as harassment.

  • Trapping or baiting players solely to cause unavoidable death is not allowed.

Griefing & Stealing

  • Griefing and stealing are allowed on unclaimed land.

  • Players are responsible for protecting their builds using the claim system.

  • Griefing, stealing, or damaging claimed land is strictly prohibited.

  • Bypassing or exploiting claim protections is not allowed.

  • Malicious griefing intended solely to lag, crash, or destabilise the server is prohibited anywhere.


4. Claims, Builds & World Use

  • Players are expected to claim land to protect builds and items.

  • Building excessively close to another player’s claimed area without permission is not allowed.

  • Offensive, hateful, or explicit builds are prohibited.

  • Lag-inducing builds, excessive redstone clocks, or large-scale farms that harm performance are not allowed.

  • AFK or automated farms must not negatively impact server stability.

  • Staff may request modification or removal of builds that cause performance or gameplay issues.


5. Economy, Trading & Shops

  • Scamming, misleading trades, or dishonest shop practices are not permitted.

  • Prices, quantities, and trade terms must be clearly displayed.

  • Exploiting economy plugins, bugs, or unintended mechanics is prohibited.

  • Chargeback abuse or attempting to reverse legitimate transactions may result in a ban.


6. Chat, Advertising & Communication

  • Spam, flooding, excessive caps, or disruptive chat behaviour is not allowed.

  • Advertising other servers, communities, services, or self-promotion without permission is prohibited.

  • Global chat must remain readable, appropriate, and inclusive.

  • Use appropriate channels for trade, support, or off-topic discussion.


7. Alternate Accounts

  • Alternate accounts are allowed if used responsibly.

  • Alts may not be used to bypass punishments, restrictions, or cooldowns.

  • Alts may not be used to gain unfair advantages in PvP, economy, or events.

  • Staff may restrict or remove alt access if abused.


8. Staff & Enforcement

  • Players must follow staff instructions at all times.

  • Punishments may include warnings, mutes, kicks, temporary bans, or permanent bans depending on severity.

  • Attempting to bypass or evade punishments will result in escalation.

  • Staff decisions are final, though an appeal process may be available.


9. Interpretation & Discretion

  • These rules exist to ensure fair, enjoyable, and long-term Survival gameplay.

  • Attempting to bypass the spirit or intent of the rules is not permitted, even if not explicitly listed.

  • ElyriaMC staff may interpret and enforce rules based on context, intent, and impact.

  • Actions that harm server stability, fairness, or player experience may result in enforcement.

  • Claims of ignorance, loopholes, or “technical compliance” are not valid defences.

  • Rules may be updated at any time. Continued play constitutes acceptance of the current version.
