No Griefing
Do not grief the server. There are many way to do that, but the most common are to intentionally crash the server, lag the server, destroy or damage the spawn, destroy or damage other player's builds, erase warp points, PVP without agreement of other players, chat spamming, and so forth. Use your best judgement, and remember that other people are on here to have fun also.
While we do strive to give our users Total Freedom, there are some limitations that we have been forced to put in place to prevent the worst of griefing. We are sorry for these measures, and if you need help building something legitimate but can't because of these limitations, please contact an Admin.
Do note that actions such as "nuking" (removing and placing blocks rapidly via a client side hack) or freecam building/destroying will be automaticlly detected and you will be removed from the server. Additionally, some blocks, when used with worldedit, are prohibited and will result in automatic de-opping for evaulation by an Admin. You should get permission from an Admin before using "high grief" potential blocks like water and lava.
Do not pose as the server owner and do not pose as an Admin or one of the other regular players that use Total Freedom. By posing, that means using a program such as MinecraftSP or otherwise changing your nick. Posing to change your title or to pose as somebody "famous" (like Notch) is okay provided you do not use it grief the server. You may not use nicks or tags that imply you have an official position on the server. This includes any nick or tag including the words Admin, senior, owner, telnet, builder, architect, coder, dev, programmer, mod, security, or any nick or tag that the owner or a senior Admin believes is an attempt to pose. In such cases, the offender will be de-nicked and warned. You may however use the tag [helper] if you're interested in becoming an Admin and wish to assist admins. In all other cases, nicks and tags must not violate other rules such as respect for other players. For example, using the nick CrafterSmith12Sucks will not be smiled upon. Last but not least, do not use spinning nicks, line-thru nicks, underline, bold nicks, black nicks (too hard to see), super long nicks, all-upper case, blank/hidden/garbage character nicks, or any form of nick that's designed to spam or annoy other players. If you login without premium (offline mode), a login name that is not valid by Mojang standards is disallowed (containing characters that are not numbers, letters, or an underscore to include spaces.)
Respect the "FreedomOP" of other players. Do not be a pest or a nuisance to others, and respect their privacy. Do not "help" with builds if people do not want you to, and do not teleport someone without their permission. It is best to use /tpahere to request that someone to teleport to you, rather than forcefully teleporting them. There are numerous way to be a nuisance and we don't detail all of them here but you'll learn them with time. Please note that privacy of communication is not yet offered on this server; all private messages / mail are logged plus all members have have access to socialspy. Use external services such as Skype or Twitter (Direct Message) if you require private communication with other members.
Respect other players and admins
Do not engage in personal attacks on other players/admins and take all personal disputes off the server. If you don't like a particular player, feel more than free to use the ignore command on them but personal wars on the server won't be tolerated regardless of who started it and temporary bans will result. If you're coming on the server to troll other players, you'll end up getting trolled yourself (we love to play with trolls). Similarly, threats to DOX, threats to commit illegal acts (e.g. DDoS), graphic sexual discussion or RP, linking to porn or scam sites, racist attacks, and other forms of behavior designed to offend, intimidate or harass will not be tolerated. This rule applies to admins to players as well, and admins that abuse their authority to engage in personal attacks will be sanctioned or removed. Respect between admins is essential on the server and on the forums; disputes, criticisms, and complaints between admins are to be handled off-server and in the highest forum Admin channel that you have access to (super, telnet, or senior) or via PM. The rule also applies to our forums (non-Admin sections) or anywhere that the dispute might be viewed by a general public (e.g. Twitter). Admins will refrain from griefing or attacking any server owned by another Admin or they may face sanctions on FreedomOP per our Associated Server policies - see forum for additional information.
Do not override the actions of the server owner (CrafterSmith12) or other admins. For example, if an Admin de-ops or bans a player for griefing, you may not re-op or pardon them without permission. Super admins will follow the directions of senior admins with respect to any Admin matter unless it violates server rules in which case a PM will be sent by the super Admin to the owner.
Violation of these rules may result in a temporary de-op, temporary IP ban, or other disciplinary action. The length of a ban will be determined by the server owner based on the severity of the violation.
Perm Ban Release Rules
Except for those who were improperly placed on the perm ban list, those who get released from perm ban under any other condition are subject to special a special rule and restriction for up to one year after release. The special rule is that you will be be re-added to the perm ban list (including any alts and previously used IPs) for any offense that would normally get a temporary ban, and the special restriction is not being able to apply for super Admin for a minimum of 90 days after release from perm ban or 365 days if applying for Telnet or Senior. The special rule and restriction will be in place for 365 days following release from perm ban or earlier if the owner and all senior admins agree.
