Official MineTribes Rules

Official MineTribes Rules

The rules stated below are all basic rules of Minetribes. Staff that are Jr Admin or higher have the right to issue a punishment that is not listed below and are able to modify the length or type of punishment they give, if itโ€™s the right choice to make.

This server is meant to be played fairly! Giving players unfair advantages will ruin yours and others' experiences. These rules are enforced to ensure that this server is played fairly and kindly!

If a player is seen to be repeatedly breaking rules or purposely trying to break the rules there will be further punishments in place to prevent this from continuing. If you see this happening please report it as soon as possible.

No players or staff are exempt from breaking any rule, and if you feel like a member of our team has violated one of these rules, please make a ticket and request a higher member of staff (Jr Admin+).

Punishments that can be given to a player that is breaking rules are such: Warnings, Mutes, Temp/Perm/IP Bans and Blacklists.
