Minecraft Server Information and Rules

Post by mbaxter » Mon Aug 30, 2010 9:46 pm

The Game http://www.minecraft.net/
www.joe.to | Minecraft Server
joe.to
The only IP you need to know - leads to all other J2 servers!



Welcome to the joe.to Minecraft Forums.

The server rules when playing on a joe.to sponsored game server can be found in the below link.

Joe.to Server Rules, Guidelines and information Thread

The Minecraft specific rules are below

1. The use of third party programs to modify your effect on the server is not allowed.

2. Don't build laggy redstone circuits.

3. No grotesque imagery.

:)

Extra Rules for Survival (PvP)
  1. Spawn is not a safe zone. However, do not sit at spawn repeatedly killing users as they respawn.
  2. Don't set unnecessary fires. If you want to burn somebody's house/base/fort down, sure. Don't go around starting random fires and burning forests down, unless there is a really good reason for it.
  3. Griefing and raiding are allowed.
Getting to a server
To get on to your desired server, log on to the hub server (mc.joe.to), and then follow the signs to the portals for the different types of servers.

Contacting an Admin
While on the server, simply ask for an admin. If one is available they will respond.
To report a rule violation, type /report.
For a list of admins, click here.
There is generally somebody available for assistance on IRC, in #joe.to on gamesurge. Feel free to ask there.

Minecraft IRC Information
The Joe.to community offers a variety of minecraft related IRC services, such as a j2-managed [url=irc://irc.gamesurge.net:6667/minecraft]#minecraft[/url] channel as well as server specific channels.

  1. Find an IRC client. A listing of different IRC clients can be found here.
  2. Once you've chosen your client, you'll need to connect to the server which hosts the j2 channels. We are located on [url=irc://irc.gamesurge.net:6667/joe.to]the GameSurge.net IRC network[/url] (irc://irc.gamesurge.net on port 6667).

Do regular admins get grandfathered in or do we have to reapply?

Obviously your experience as a source-based game admin will be taken into account. Significantly. :P

For #4, what if you destroy something and it looks so cool that you want to keep it and it becomes a monument?
Ex: My Spongebob house memorial.

Wat?

Basicly rule 4 says that if you are going to remove any of your structures, you need to restore the land to how it was. We don't want random potholes and puddles of lava and water around.

Example:
You have... a Gumby.
Image
and you decide to remove Gumby in order to use that land for another structure. As you TNT Gumby, you realize, he looks AWESOME with one leg and half a torso. Forget the new structure, you want to keep the holy tripod Gumby! You clean up the water and lava, put down your TNT and make it somewhat presentable. But, will Chairman Bax allow such bizarre creatures roam mc2?

I'd say as long as it doesn't look severely greifed, but intentional, that would be fine. We don't want new folks coming into our server and seeing a ton of 3/4 structures and thinking it would be a bad idea to build here, then leave.

Yeah, I just wanted to avoid stuff that looks horribly griefed with water and lava everywhere.

Sounds like you're the reason all the warps had to be deleted. Don't create warps for bullshit.

I didn't make the warp for it, Avvatar.
WomenBleed made it.
He also made /warp top.
