IMPORTANT SERVER RULES
Server Information
As the BGSF is the centre of all good in the gaming world, we have appropriately set up a server - we started on a humble Hamachi server, locally hosted, but have since risen in the world, and now have a dedicated Minecraft server! You can find the details below, and if you'd like to help us keep the server running details can be found at the spawn .
Entry Requirements
To access our great and grand server you have to meet one of the following criteria - your application for the whitelist will be assessed individually and you shall be informed when a decision is made. This could take some time, and it is possible to be denied access.
1. You are 'Curate' forum rank or above (1 gold star) - this indicates to us that you are a member of the BGSF community, compared to a passing vagabond looking for some quick fun. As this server is aimed towards the community we do expect our members to be a part of the community.
2. You do not have any rank on the forums, however have proven yourself to be an active member of our thread. If you've posted in our thread for a week or two, shared your projects, screenshots of your single-player obsidian factory, and generally proven yourself to be a friendly person that acts in an appropriate manner you will be allowed onto the server.
Server Details:
Before entering the server post your Minecraft username in this thread - you will not be added to the whitelist if you do not!
IP: 88.198.17.4:25500
General Rules:
Good conduct is expected from all members. The admins reserve the right to add or remove to these rules as they wish, as well as to kick, suspend or ban for anything not listed which we deem to be unacceptable conduct.
1. This is a no PvP server. Killing another member will result in a one month suspension, unless it can be proven that the attack was unintentional (ie "they ran in front of my pick!")
2. Theft and destruction of property will not be tolerated. These will incur a one month suspension.
3. Griefing will result in a permanent ban.
4. Repeat of petty offences will result in a permanent ban.
5. Use of unauthorised client mods will result in a ban deemed appropriate for the nature of the mod.
Gameplay rules:
These rules are the embodiment of the server game we have set up. Failure to observe these rules will result in a punishment deemed appropriate by the council.
1. Players need not build in the city if they do not want to. For RAM and cartographing reasons we request that you stay close to the city, but outwith the exclusion region marked on the map. Buildings constructed in the exclusion region may be forcibly removed if the owner does not agree to relocate.
2. There is no mining allowed within the city. Trees may only be removed if they block legal construction.
3. The city is split into four main districts, with the follow plot limits:
D1: Starter plots, small plots (10x10), low-end industrial (lumber, quarry bases, etc).
D2: Small plots, medium plots (15x15), mid-range commercial (small shops).
D3: Medium plots, large plots (20x20), high-end commercial (large shops, guilds).
D5: Mansion/estate plots (30x30).
Buildings MAY NOT be built without a permit.
These rules are subject to updating.
