Rules

Please follow and endorse these rules. If you spot someone failing to follow them, please report them on Discord.

  1. No spamming! You will be muted and possibly kicked/banned after repeated attempts. 
  2. No lagging the server! If you are caught lagging any of the servers by spamming, griefing, or glitching anything, we will take action.
  3. No re-logging quickly! Logging out and then logging in quickly and rapidly to spam chat and lag the server is not tolerated. 
  4. No arguing! Do not get heated globally and clog up chat. Do that privately! 
  5. No griefing. Trying to destroy a claimed piece of land is intolerable and a ban might happen! Don’t do it! 
  6. No X-Ray! This is very unfair and will have serious consequences. You will lose the items you cheated for! 
  7. No exploiting! Exploiting the shop or other players with your own shop is not okay. 
  8. No disguising in PvP, or use of fireworks and Elytras inside of PvP.
  9. No claiming between claims and around claims! You may not claim between claims nor claim around claims within a 30 block range unless all players are okay. 
  10. No obstructing a player’s view! This means getting up close to someone constantly and blocking them from being able to build, break, etc. This can also mean blocking the view of their own place, such as being within a 30 block range or building a wall around someone’s place. 
  11. No PvP glitching/exploiting! If you are caught cheating by standing above PvP, flying, hacks, or find broken spots, action will be taken.
  12. No spamming warps! Trying to set as many warps as you can and keeping them all to yourself is unacceptable and unfair to other players. We will delete those warps. 
  13. No asking Staff for privileges! Doing so not only gets you, the player, in trouble, but also the Staff member. Do not do it. 
  14. Updated Chat Rules:
    1. Swear Words and Derogatory Terms are no longer monitored by the chat filter plugin. You may now speak freely and not be filtered by the server. In light of this change it is now recommended to all players to join this server at their own discretion.
    2. Rules #4#13#15, and #19 still apply! Do not argue in public chat, Ask for free stuff, Threaten players, or be generally disrespectful.
    3. It is very highly recommended that a player use command /ignore {player} if a player’s messages are particularly bothersome. 
    4. Excessive offensiveness towards other players is still punishable.
    5. A trade-off for this change is limiting sending messages to every 3 full seconds to prevent spam. (Spamming is still very much against the rules.)

(Disclaimer: Any previous punishment given out prior to this change is still valid and will not be changed or appealed.)

15. No threats! Engaging in personal and public attacks will cause more than just a ban. 

16. No hacks! We understand things such as Optifine are fine, but hacks that damage the game itself and other players is definitely not accepted. 

17. No disclosing private conversations/information! If you give away, joke too much, or falsify information or a conversation about someone else, you will be temporarily banned. If continued, you will no longer be able to play on the server. 

18. No Staff disrespect! Arguing, making fun of, or being an ass against staff is something serious and will not be tolerated ever. 

19. No player disrespect! Being rude to other players is absolutely not accepted. Even if it is a joke, the person on the other end may not see it that way and take offense. If you disrespect a player in a joking manner and they report it, it is no longer considered a joke.

(edit: This rule is still the EXACT same that it was before, just made more clear.)

20. No leaking someone’s social media or anything private! If you disclose something that’s private publicly, your agreement to playing this server will be terminated and you may no longer play on here. 

21. No buying for others without their permission! If you want to buy someone a rank, cosmetic, etc. on the store, get their permission first or we will issue a return. 

22. If you join the in-game (or discord) and make no true contribution to the server (And/Or only annoy others), you will be removed WITHOUT QUESTION. There is a very low tolerance with this rule. Returning player or fresh newbie, if you join and you only act a fool, you will be removed, and you may not appeal if you’ve been banned for violating this rule.

Rule (X) As well as the rules listed above, Lectron Minecraft does not tolerate violations of General Law and decency.  As this server is hosted in the United States, it follows all laws set and governed by the US Government. Some highlighted illegal acts that pertain to the Lectron Minecraft Network include, but is not limited to, Under-Aged Sexual Activity/ Engaging in Sexual Activity with a player under the appropriate age, Any use or recognition of private images/videos involving MinorsDenial of Service attacks, Doxxing, and others.

A rule that is not on this list may be applied in the future, If you do something that is not in the rule set above, a moderator reserves the right to take action if deemed non-suitable.

These rules coincide with the ones written in the discord tab “#rules”. Any rule here that can be applied on the discord will be applied and will be enforced.

Treat others with respect.
There’s no need to say or do things to make others feel bad or upset. Trolling, generally defined as provoking a person/situation to get a response, is also not allowed.

Offensive content is not allowed.
While some minor amount of swearing is allowed, severe or frequent vulgarity, especially when directed at others, is not. Offensive item/mob names, skins, minecraft structures and usernames are not allowed, and you are required to change or remove any if asked by a staff member.

Keep chat family friendly.
Chat should be family friendly. This means certain subjects are not allowed in chat. These include, but are not limited to, discussions about sex, politics, religion or drugs. If a staff member asks you to move a conversation elsewhere or drop one, you should do so.

Advertising is not allowed.
Advertising other Minecraft servers is strictly banned. You also may not advertise websites, YouTube channels, Twitch streams, or anything else if it is not related to Lectron.

Allow moderators to do their jobs.
You may not attempt to do a moderator’s job in threatening to punish players for breaking the rules. You are not allowed to argue against any decision made by a staff member regarding enforcement of the rules in any public channel. If you do disagree, please contact that staff member privately to resolve the issue, and if you cannot, contact administration via our staff feedback form.

Spamming is not allowed.
Spamming is filling chat with multiple unneeded characters or messages. Don’t do it.

This rule also applies to spamming commands that don’t necessarily show up in chat (whether it be manually or via powertool) or shouting or purchasing lottery tickets to the extent of making chat hard to read.

Cheating is not tolerated.
Cheating in any form is not allowed. Anything that would give you an unfair advantage over other players is considered cheating. This can include client mods to generate items/money easier or faster than otherwise possible, abusing server bugs or using alts/friends to “boost” kills in SG.

Trading For Real Items
Transactions to buy or sell Lectron Dollars or other in-game items for real money or other external products are not allowed. This includes minecraft accounts! The only exception to this is where players trade or pay another player in exchange for a purchase in their name from our official /shop.

Griefing is not allowed.
Griefing is considered destroying or changing another player’s property or buildings without their consent in any protected area. Don’t do it.

Do not scam other players, or try to.
Scamming is taking money, items, work, or anything else of value from another player dishonestly. This includes teleporting people into PvP areas without their consent.

Global Chat Rules
Certain chats have specific rules you must follow while using them. You are required to be speaking English at all times  at spawn, public hangouts/warps that have lots of people chatting in English.
