Server Rules

Don't build anything to deliberately annoy someone on the server. Don't let mobs out of their cages, abuse gaps in claims, or claim around another user to cause issues for them. Abuse of the claiming system is griefing and will result in a punishment.

Randomly killing other players is not allowed, including via player traps. Don't attempt to steal items from other players or otherwise ruin their experience on the server. If your build is hazardous to players, please make sure it's marked with a sign to avoid new players accidentally dying.

Do not kill trial players to end their trial. All players are entitled to their full trial period. Trials are only intended to end if a player dies via survival causes, such as hostile mobs or their own mistake. Purposely ending someone's trial may result in a ban.

Keep all activity appropriate

SMPOnline is a mature, adult-oriented community. All in-game content and conduct must be appropriate for stream at a minimum, including any use of mods, books, signs, builds, etc.

The Twitch Community Guidelines are a good point of reference, as well as the rules of the CallMeCarsonLIVE Twitch channel. We will not tolerate racism, hate speech, or otherwise hateful conduct. Be respectful to all players (including staff) at all times. Avoid spamming the chat or otherwise being disruptive. Follow all staff instructions, and in general, don't be a dick.

Please avoid discussing or depicting sensitive, real-world topics in-game, especially in text chat or in public spaces. SMPOnline is not intended to be a space for that kind of stuff - it's a place full of people running bits, having fun, and otherwise being unserious. Staff may ask you to stop, change topics, or take action if you continue crossing the line.

Displaying, creating, or doing things on SMPOnline that are sexually evocative is not allowed. TheWhile onlywe exceptiondo encourage artistic expression on the server, there are limits to thiswhat's allowed. Treat anything you make on the server as if it'll appear on a livestream and keep it reasonable. Nothing you make should focus on (or exaggerate) the sexual aspects of characters. If you're unsure if what you're doing crosses the line, please ask before finalizing anything.

Excessively sexual jokes may result in punishment, so please keep those reasonable. If staff tell you to stop, stop.

Depictions of self-harm, suicide, real-world deaths, or extreme gore are not allowed anywhere on SMPOnline. If what you're making would be respectfullytoo requestingextreme someonefor adjusta theirHalloween buildcontext, don't do it.

Treat everyone with respect

DoWhen notdoing beanything on SMPOnline, your actions impact the experience other players around you. Everyone has to work together to maintain a pleasant server atmosphere, as well as keep the server free of pointless toxicity. Please report disrespectful conduct to staff so we can make note of it or take action if necessary. If someone asks you to stop doing something, it's generally best to stop.

Extremely rude or hostile towardsbehavior othertoward players,others includingis innot yourallowed. communicationsAvoid escalating issues when disrespectful conduct occurs as you may be punished yourself, even if you didn't cause the original problem. Keep disagreements as civil as possible and defer to staff for assistance if you're unable to settle matters with themanother outside the server. Toxicity and/or personal quarrels that bleed over into the server often end up a problem staff has to deal with. It's possible to be permanently banned for simply causing too much trouble on the server, so keep it chill and to a minimum as much as possible.user.

Cheating is not allowed

While we do conditionally allow some mods that could provide some in-game advantage, generally speaking, software that affects gameplay, automates inputs, or otherwise provides an advantage is not allowed.

Attemptingattempt to reverse the world seedseed. Do not use alt accounts in a way that gives you a gameplay advantage, such as AFKing at your base. All actions taken by your accounts in-game must be done by a human and cannot be automated.

Cheating during events will result in a permanent ban if we learn of it. Please use our world map if you're looking for a particular structure or point of interest.

Avoiding our AFK kick is generally considered cheating and may result in a warning. Using an automated means to accomplish this (such as an auto clicker or anti-afk bot of some kind) will result in more severe punishments typically.

Use of an alt as a bot, or even running a bot on your main account, is not allowed. Do not use Baritone on our servers. All inputs made in the game should be made by a real human being.

Do not abuse duplication bugs or other exploits in the game for your own gain. If you discover an issue that could duplicate items, give players an infinite amount of resource, or otherwise seems broken, please report the issue for a reward.

Using external tools or modifying mods to give yourself access to further abilities than most people on the server is not allowed. This includes using modified versions of Joy of Painting to paint with a wider range of colors, or getting custom images into the server through mods via unintended routes. 

Only use custom content and/or supported mods as intended and without modifications. Abusing server features to display custom assets within the server in an unintended way (such as taking photos of a texture in a custom resource pack) is not allowed. Use mods for their intended purpose only. If you're making things outside of the game that affects your mod use in-game, it's probably not allowed.

No Griefing or Stealing

This is not an anarchy server. All player-made builds and creations should not be touched unless you have permission. This includes adding things onto these builds, such as modifying someone's build during a build event or digging a large moat around someone's claim. If it's not yours, don't mess with it.

Unclaimed chests, shulkers, furnaces, and other containers should not be used if they're not yours. You're welcome to use Ender Chests in other players claims, though. Don't kill named mobs for any reason - we have logs on that kind of thing.

Lava casts are almost always not allowed and will result in bans,event, especially if they impact another player'it's base. The only exception would be using them as a waycompetitive to frame out a large structure, though please attempt to clean up your mess before logging off. Giant cobblestone pyramids are an eyesore no matter where they are and should not be made.

In general, don't do anything to deliberately annoy or take from someone else. Don't steal mobs, don't let them out of their cage, don't abuse gaps in their claims, and don't make ugly stuff.

Don't intentionally cause lag

Building lag machines or abusing bugs in the game to otherwise degrade other player's experience is not allowed. Doing this will result in permanent ban - it isn't funny. Particularly server-intensive builds or farms may be disabled / nerfed if they're causing a ton of lag or otherwise making it hard for others to play.

Do not evade bans

Ban evasion is a severe offense and will result in a permanent ban for all of your accounts, even if you were only banned temporarily.event. Please wait out temp bans, or appeal if needed. We are far less flexible with appeals for players who have ban evaded in the past.

To avoid potential punishments down the road, please report anyone you know or suspect to be ban evadingcheating to staff.

All

Use activitymod mustcontent as intended

SMPOnline supports some modded content, currently Joy of Painting and Camerapture at time of writing. These mods allow you to express yourself and be stream appropriate

Excessive, toxic swearing, any use of slurs or other Twitch-banned terms, and spam are not allowed and may result in punishment. Edgy jokes about sensitive topics (suicide, shootings, racism, etc) may result in a ban. Jokes about doxxing will result in punishment, and discussion of it as a topic is highly discouraged. Hate symbols, nazi symbolism, and any otherwise anti-semetic imagery/allusions/themed builds/jokes will lead to a permanent ban. All of these rules also apply to voice chat!

Excessive sexual content is also not allowed, such as constant sexual jokes, written erotica, or constant implication of sexual acts. While crass and sometimes sexual jokes are made on stream and in videos, they are generally brief and infrequent. Try to avoid getting in the habit of making sexual remarks, jokes, or using excessive sexual theming in anything - that's not the atmosphere we're aiming for.

In line with our community expectations on Discord, please avoid conversations about politics or religion in-game. These topics too often slip into unproductive behavior for us to allow them going forward, and they're not really appropriate for stream either. Please note that this does not include any in-character roleplay lore, this is regarding real world topics only.

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL INTERACTIONS IN GAME THROUGH YOUR ACCOUNT! Do not use LLMs or other AIs to communicate or interact on your behalf. Even if automated, any actions taken that violate our rules will be your responsibility and will be treated as actions taken by you.

Anything that cannot be shown on Twitch should not be built or done. Keep it appropriate to stream, and keep it light.

All mod use must be appropriate

There are many third party mods for Minecraft that add features, such as custom player models or animations, to the server. While we don't strictly recommend or condone use of these modscreative on the server, playersas willwell inevitablyas document your activities in-game through this custom content. While we encourage people to find creative use-cases for our mods, you should respect our intentions in your use. them anyway.

If you're using a mod that affects other player's experience on the server without their explicit prior permission, such as Figura, Customizable Player Models, or otherModifying mods that enable custom content visible to other players, you must abide by these guidelines.

• Visual content must be appropriate for all ages, including animations
• Sound effects must be at a reasonable volume and not "spammy"
• All content must not be disruptive to server gameplay
• Player models including sexually themed animations, textures, etc, even if not shown, are prohibited
• Use of custom animations to imply sexual contexts is not allowed
• You must have control over everything displayed through your mod use.
  • This means no AI, LLMs, or any other means of displaying anything you haven't vetted and moderated

Sexual modded content is not allowed and will result in a ban.way Wethat willallows ban users who publish content online depicting sexual content via mods on SMPOnline.

However, applying jiggle physicsactions or otherwise sexualizingautomate anatomytasks done manually is not allowed. If there'swe've anytaken ambiguitysteps onto therestrict stafffunctionality sideof ona certain part of a mod, do not circumvent our restrictions. If you're unsure if something qualifies as "sexualized," expect a conversation, not a ban.

Respect staff and their decisions

Staff on the server take actions necessary to keep our server a chill place to play Minecraft. These actions are in response to things done by other members of the community and are logged, as well as reviewed. For privacy, we will not share the reasons for punishments with anyone other than who the punishment was issued to. We also do not disclose who issued the punishment originally.

Producing content in the server depicting or alluding to banned users may result in a punishment and a removal of the content. Intentionallyyou're doing this for "drama" purposes will likely result in a ban, especially if you're trying to assist a banned user in communicating with someone on the server.

Arguing about punishments in server chat is notallowed, allowed. Pleaseplease make a ticket inand the CMC Discord if you disagree with a particular punishment that was issued.ask.

SMPOnline Rules

These rules only apply to SMPOnline andDo not any events.

Avoid lagging the server

Keep mob farms / villager trading halls away from spawn or towns. These structures are a large contributor toabuse server lag. Even small farms like this add up rather quickly with over 100 players online. Villagers may be disabled or removed if too close to high traffic areas. Mob farms may be disabled or removed by staff if they're an issue - especially if they're automated, like an automatic iron farm.

Don't block villagers with trap doorsfeatures because this is also very laggy due to issues with Villager pathing on the version the server is on. Please stick to full blocks wherever possible. Your villagers will be automatically disabled if they attempt to path through a trapdoor.

Don't make disruptive builds

Avoid blocking rivers and waterways with bridges or walls. If you do terraforming to completely eliminate a river, that's perfectly fine, but don't obstruct a path players might be taking with boats. The minimum gap between water and your bridge for it to be allowed is 1.5 blocks, aka a full air block and the underside of a top slab. Try to leave more room than this, and please don't make the underside of your bridge a dark hazard where mobs can spawn. Don't leave temporary river bridges in the water.

Don't build huge, ugly pathways/railways/highways through the sky. If you're slowly making progress on a large scale build like this, do your best to use high quality materials. Your infrastructure should look good - not like some kind of temporary scaffolding. Ensure you have enough materials to finish the sections of your infrastructure you've started before you create a build crossing thousands of blocks.

Don't grief other players

Unsafe Fast Cart railways need to have signage warning of the danger. These roller coasters and elytra launcher setups are quite fun to use! However, when unmarked, unsuspecting players can stumble across them, board them, and die unexpectedly. Please put up signs warning of any danger, as well as how you can avoid death while riding. Repeatedly ignoring this rule will be considered building a player trap and will result in a punishment.

Building player killing traps, especially if it's to steal their items, is not allowed. If these traps are built and used, you may be banned from the server. Pranking your friends is fine, but building a trap that someone could accidentally stumble into is not. If staff have to be called to resolve this kind of situation, punishments are likely to be issued.

Don't randomly kill or attack players with PVP enabled. There should be a reason why you're attacking someone else if you are. It should be a mutual effort. Killing other players to take their items is not allowed - return people's stuff. Don't steal items from players who died in front of you. Do your best to avoid picking up their death loot.

In general, don't make it difficult for another player to have fun.

Don't abuse our claim system

We've had numerous issues with claims over few years we've ran SMPOnline. Here's what isn't cool to do.

Do not claim limited structures andonly restrictto limit access to them, such as strongholds or ancient cities. These areas are public resources and should be kept available for all players to use and benefit from.from in survival. You're welcome to raid them for resources, but don'tdo preventnot othersrestrict from entering. Keep in mind - claims, by default, prevent players from modifying blocks in that area. If you've claimed a stronghold, it's ideal to provide an easy-to-find, public entrance for it.access.
