Introduction

To ensure that your game experience is as good as it can be while adventuring in the Cubic Worlds server, players are expected to abide by our rules at all times. We hope that you will find that most things here boil down to simple common sense - it is not our intention to spoil the game by being too officious, but unfortunately there are always those who seek to cause trouble.

Let it be known that nobody is above these offenses; not even the Staffers. The suffering of the rule-breaker increases exponentially with increasing rank.

Players

  • Be friendly and respectful to others.
  • Please use English only when chatting.
  • Do not swear or talk about obscene subjects - please read our Language Policy for more information.
  • Do not ask for promotion or try to make yourself "look good" in the eyes of Staffers.
  • Have fun!

You can learn more about Cubic Worlds user ranks and how we make promotions on the Ranks page.

Building and Destroying

  • No X-raying - make no mistake that we consider this amongst the worst possible crimes you can commit on our server, and however clever you might think you are, we will find you.
  • No griefing - griefers will be given a warning then banned for a length of time relative to the seriousness of the grief. Multiple griefs may stack up in ban time. Griefing generally includes, but is not limited to:
    • Destroying or altering blocks placed by others without their permission (such as by adding torches, ladders, signs, and so on).
    • Adding to someone else's building without permission.
    • Using LWC commands to lock blocks that are not yours without permission.
  • No stealing - this may be harvesting the wheat from another player's farm or otherwise taking items that are within another player's land.
  • No hacking - using hacks such as flying or inventory editing will get you banned, usually without warning.
  • No unlabelled traps designed to kill players - though traps in obstacle courses are fine.
  • Keep your builds in theme - if you don't know if it is in theme, ask your neighbours in-game or on the forums. This only applies if you are building in a theme-controlled area, such as a player-run settlement. If you choose to build in the wilderness, away from other players, you may build anything as long as it stays family friendly.
  • No 1-block towers - they're ugly and unnecessary and will be removed on sight.
  • No diamond-block houses - please use your diamonds in a less outlandish way!
  • If you chop down a tree, take all of it - floating leaves are Zolyx's pet peeve...
  • No strip-mining of beaches - if you need sand, mine it from a desert, or even better, from the Ore world.

The Golden Rule

  • Ignorance is no excuse - keep yourself informed and be familiar with the current rules of the server at all times. Do your best to keep Cubic Worlds the great place it is so that everyone can have a happy Minecrafting time!
