This means that you treat others with kindness and empathy. Do not harass other players over their opinions or lifestyle. If someone’s opinion or action is harmful, report it to staff.
No excessive swearing or insults. Hate speech, encouraging self-harm, sexual comments, etc. are not allowed.
We understand sometimes a situation calls for a cuss, but using swears like punctuation will warrant action from staff. Playfully bickering with friends is fine, but if someone asks for the bickering to stop, respect their request and quit it. Anything beyond that will result in a ban.
Your nickname on the discord server must include your Minecraft In-Game Name (IGN) and not be comprised of fancy symbols.
This is so that we can find members in case something happens in the Minecraft server that requires contacting them. The symbol restraint is so that staff can easily ping individuals if necessary. If your server nickname is not easily pinged due to fancy text, staff will change it to PINGABLE NAME.
No spamming.
Give everyone a chance to chat and don’t clutter discussions with spam. If you need to share a novel’s worth of emojis or the entire bee movie script, don’t do so in channels meant for discussion.
No Raiding.
Raiding will result in an immediate ban. Trolls will be dealt with in similar manner.
Staff has final say in arguments.
In case staff is undecided on a matter, the owner will make the final decision.
No alternate accounts.
This is to avoid ban evasion. In case of account loss, you can join on a new one and the old account will be kicked.
No AI modification of others’ content.
Do not modify other people’s images with AI under ANY circumstances, such as with the Discord “enhancement” features, amidst others. This is a ban worthy offense.
Members must be 16+ to join.
This is to keep a certain level of maturity in our member base.
Do not ping or DM staff directly.
If you require assistance from staff regarding the server, please use the staff support channel in the discord or our contact email. If what you need assistance with requires privacy, open a ticket via the button pinned in the staff support channel of the discord or reaching out to our email: contact@fatefulfriends.com
Staff have the right to decline your whitelist application.
If we feel you aren’t a good fit for our community, trust that we deny your entry not to hurt you, but to avoid friction in our community.
Failure to adhere to these will result in action from staff.
No threats of violence, rape, crime, etc.
No venting about serious matters such as abuse, addiction, etc.
No racist comments/insults.
No using autism as an insult or insulting someone for their mental health condition.
No using gay as an insult or insulting someone for their sexual preference.
No insults or mockery based on gender expression or gender identity.
No mockery about COVID-19 or other serious medical conditions.
No explicit gross/gore discussion or imagery.
No politics-based discussion.
No preaching or reckless religion comparison/arguments.
Further Notes
These are just some elaborations on the guidelines above.
Mockery Vs. Joking
If the point of the joke is to offend or show disgust, it isn’t a joke, it’s an insult.
Venting
If you are going through something serious such as abuse, addiction, depression, anxiety and need support, please call a professional or your local crisis hotline. In the US, 988 is the national crisis hotline.
The discord rules and chat guidelines apply to the in-game chat.
Avoid building/claiming in towns or too close to others without their permission first.
In case of abandoned builds/claims, reach out to staff via ticket in 💼┃staff-support.
Griefing and stealing are not allowed.
If you need resources from another player, you must get their permission to take them even if they are not claimed.
Hacking is not allowed.
For client-side quality of life mods, just check with staff first. Using client-side mods to crack the world seed, x-ray, or otherwise give an unfair advantage is a ban worthy offense. This includes configuring Xaero’s World Map to locate structures not noticeable in natural gameplay.
Do not decimate public farms.
Replant crops, leave animal pairs, etc. In case of accidental damage or overharvesting, depending on the situation, the player may only have to rebuild or resupply.
Avoid having lag heavy farms.
You must have either an off switch or an isolated location for hostile mob producing farms. Limit your passive mob farm output, as these were an enormous source of lag in the past.
Using glitches that give an unfair advantage are not allowed.
Item or block duplication fall under this rule. F3 Pie Chart loot finding also falls under this rule. On the inverse, reporting a glitch or bug to staff that they were not previously aware of will reward the player who reported it.
To reduce lag, pasture block usage is limited.
You can only have twenty Pokémon in pasture blocks per eight chunks. This rule is subject to change dependent on lag.
To allow fair access for everyone, no claiming major structures you don’t plan to make use of.
This includes end cities, nether fortresses, strongholds, Piglin bastions, and villages. Breaking end portal frames is a ban worthy offense.
No Rare Catch Sniping!
If a shiny/legendary spawns near another player, they get priority in catching it. If someone snipes it from them without permission, it is theft and will be treated as such.
One Legendary Summon at a Time
One legendary may be spawned at a time per player via item summon. You must catch or kill the previous one before spawning another.
AFKing is limited to one hour sessions.
Players will be kicked after an hour of being idle. This is to reduce stress on the server, open up a spot for someone who actually wants to be active, and to keep the server alive. Using auto-clickers or similar tools to keep yourself from being detected as AFK will result in action from staff.
These are rules regarding spawn platforms, AKA Artificial Habitats.
A maximum of two official copies of the same Artificial Habitat may exist at a time in the region.
If there are two Mangrove Swamp habitats, do not create a third one.
Artificial Habitats must be a maximum of 64 meters in radius from the AFK area, and shall not exceed this size.
4 chunks maximum from the AFK area to any of the edges.
Artificial Habitats must be at least a thousand blocks away from any populated areas or useful construction.
Artificial Habitats must be open to the public, unless they are part of something constructed that encompasses more than just the habitat.
Private Artificial Habitats may exist, but after fulfilling their purpose, they are to be made public or taken down.
Previous rules do not apply to extra dimensional spaces.
You may make Spawning Platforms at your leisure in the End/Nether.
League Trainers must have in-character information.
You can post your character info in the lore forum channel of the discord.
League Trainers must have a theme to their team.
This does not need to be a specific type.
There can be duplicate base themes.
If the theme differs enough, there can be two League Trainers with the same baseline to their theme team.
These rules apply to all in-character interaction, both in Minecraft and on discord in the roleplay channel. If you don’t plan to roleplay, you can skip this section.
Make sure your character info in the lore has all the applicable information.
This extends into concealing information about a character until after roleplaying with them.
Permission to kill/injure (PTK) and reason to kill/injure (RTK) are both required in roleplay.
This extends into no characters being evil for the sake of evil. We’ll have plenty of evil NPCs to fight.
Understand that actions have consequences.
Being rude in roleplay can get you targeted or avoided.
Your character should fit the setting.
All trainers are human, with few exceptions.
If your character has grown enough in roleplay, post an update on their info in the lore channel of the discord.
This can also be for tracking their progress in the roleplay events.
Be respectful towards members and staff.
No excessive swearing or insults. Hate speech, encouraging self-harm, sexual comments, etc. are not allowed.
Your nickname on the discord server must include your Minecraft In-Game Name (IGN) and not be comprised of fancy symbols.
