Rules

The Golden Rule

1. Don't be an asshat. This single rule covers it all really.

Gameplay

1. No griefing. Guests to the server do not have world editing rights, but people are creative and find new ways to grief us. We will be banning for this stuff, with a small chance of approving any appeals.

1. No items. Things that create entities on our server (items, minecarts, boats, arrows, snowballs, etc.) can really add up and start causing lag.

1. If you find a bug with block placement, do not abuse it. Let a moderator or admin know.

1. Do not exceed the boundaries of our map.

Chat

1. No racist, sexist, homophobic or any other prejudice stuff. This goes for rape jokes as well. Rape isn't funny and neither are you. We shouldn't have to say this.

1. No spoilers past book one / season one. A majority of the people who visit this server haven't read all the books, let alone one. The TV show is insanely popular and most of our visitors come from experiences with the HBO show rather than books. Please be considerate to other people.

1. No spamming the chat. This includes, but is not limited to: sending a lot of messages, talking in all caps, and spamming characters (AAAAAAAAAAAAA).

1. No advertising other servers or trying to recruit players on our server.

Consequences

Our rules are visible both on the wiki and in the spawn town. If you have any questions, please contact a moderator and they will help you out. Here's what will happen if you start breaking rules.

1. Warning. A moderator will warn you to stop what you are doing.

1. Kick. You will be kicked from the server. If the server is full, you may not be able to get back in for some time.

1. Temporary Ban. This is a ban with a certain time limit, frequently 24 or 48 hours. You have not followed the rules. You have not listened to the warnings and instructions. Take some time away and think about what it means to be a part of our community.

1. Extended Ban. This is a ban with an indefinite time period. After some time has passed, usually a few months or more, you are allowed to appeal your ban to show that you have changed and that you still belong on the server.

1. Permanent Ban. You have disrupted the server to the point that you will never be allowed to enter again. Ever. Do not bother asking.

While this is the standard procedure, they are not set in stone. The moderators will use their best judgement when handling every issue and act appropriately. Remember, it's about following the spirit of the law, not the letter.
