🚫 Violations & Punishment Policy

Punishments for rule violations are issued by either Administration or Player-run authorities (e.g., court, police, etc), based on the severity of the violation. To see further about the Player-run authorities, scroll to Player-run Authorities & Responsibilities.

We do not practice harsh or trigger-happy moderation. You will not be banned for minor issues. Permanent bans are only issued for serious offenses that directly harm the server, its economy, property, or other players’ gameplay experience.

⚠️ Minor Violations

These are typically subjective and may not always be judged strictly. For such cases, staff or player-run authorities may issue a warning (warn). A warn can be cleared by completing a punishment assigned by either the staff member who issued it or a designated representative of a player-run authority, usually comprising community service or compensating damages.

If a player refuses to comply, ignores Administration, and/or Player-run Authorities, or repeats the violation, an additional warn may be issued, which will only lower the trust of the person and may result in a 3 day temporary ban after five warns. Side note, the next warns after 5, will prolong the duration of temporary ban.

<aside> ‼️

Five warns = 3 day temporary ban.

Examples of minor violations:

• By default, griefing, killing, stealing, and any actions that may damage private property are considered violations. Unless there exists a contract between all parties involved. See Terms of Contracts for more details.
• Behave like a decent person. Avoid excessive spamming, caps lock, or disruptive behavior. If players express discomfort, adjust your behavior. More details in the Chat Rules.
• Don’t litter the world. Remove floating trees and random pillar towers. Avoid griefing abandoned builds unless you plan to settle nearby. This includes ruining or griefing Trial Chambers.
• Terraform with care, avoid making the terrain look unnatural and unnecessarily bad.
• Zero coordinates in any dimension are considered public zones. These areas are formally owned by the server staff. You must request permission from an Admin before modifying, building, or collecting resources there.
• Players are free to establish their own rules within their private territories; however, these must not conflict with, override, or be used to misinterpret the official Justmine server guidelines. These rules should also be easily accessible to every player (e.g., if your territory is private you should inform players of no public entrance)
• You may claim as much space as needed for your builds, as long as the space is actively used and reasonably justified. Excessive land claiming without development may result in administrative review.

⛔ Medium & Severe Violations

These occur when the player knows the rules and chooses to break them anyway. Punishments range from temporary bans to permanent bans, especially if the server economy was significantly harmed, and are assigned only by the Administration.
