==== 2. No indiscriminate griefing. ====
 
* This involves going around and destroying stuff, regardless of who owns what, as well as with no political reason.
* You can of course grief/raid if you have an in-game RP motivation (and a designated target), but expect retaliation by the target(s) of your actions.
* Spawn is plugin-protected, but nonetheless, griefing Spawn is against the rules.
Line 18:
 
* If you want to invite people to the server (and please do!) there's a google form pinned in '''#important-links-and-info''', the same form you used to join. Send it to the person who you want to join, and if we think they're a good fit (it's hard not to be), we'll let them on.
* That being said, '''please make sure that you only invite people who you believe will be non-toxic and follow the rules of the server—we all have friends that, great as they are, would not make good Elgeis-ers. '''It's best for the staff, for the community, and likely for your friendship that you think carefully about who you invite so we don't have to go through the nasty business of banning buddies.
 
*Additional notes on vetting/inviting:
Line 31:
 
*One account per person. This includes logging in on someone else's account who's already on the server, such as a sibling or friend.
*Members are freely allowed to attempt to "reroll" their ingame character, but since there is one account per person, others are also freely allowed to recognize or not recognize that change. This is to keep people from escaping IC consequences by changing their character.
 
==== 5. In order to be on the Minecraft server, you have to be a member of the discord. ====
Line 47 ⟶ 48:
* Do not bring your IRL opinions, biases or presumptions into the game if at all possible; likewise, do not form IRL opinions, biases or presumptions based on someone's actions in the game world. Do not metagame - please read the "What is metagaming?" section of the FAQ below.
* One exception to this is that OOC identity changes (usernames, pronouns, etc.) that do not constitute a change in the actual IC character being played should be respected.
** IndividualSince circumstances andeveryone's attitudesfeelings mayare varydifferent, so while we aren't going to stop everyone from ever referencing a past username, but if someone asks you to stop making jokes in regard to their identity, stop. To be clear, changes that do attempt to "reroll" one's IC character remain up to other IC characters to recognize validity.
 
==== 8. Don't abuse glitches. ====
Line 64 ⟶ 65:
*We have a zero-tolerance policy for rules 1-6, and breaking them will result in a permanent IP ban.
*Rules 7-9 are more lenient, as a lot of the time they're accidentally broken by players operating in good faith. If you do happen to break them, we'll ask you to stop/fix the mistake. However, if you refuse to or you continue to do so, or lead the staff to believe the rulebreaking was done maliciously, you will be banned.
*For rule 10, breaking it will result in your message being taken down and you'll be given a warning. If you continue, you'll may be muted in that particular channel.
*Encouraging rule breaking by others will be treated as if you are breaking the rule yourself.
*Undermining admin ability to enforce rules will be punished harshly. If you're going through all this to get into this private community, it's assumed that you ''want'' the rules to be followed so you can have the gameplay experience they're set up to create. It's therefore expected that you will help enforce the rules as a community member by letting staff know about rule-breaking or vulnerabilities for exploits.
