Rules
You will be removed from the server if you break any of these rules
- Be a good person: be nice, kind, respectful, etc. Don’t grief just outside someone’s land claim - that’s just rude. Don’t scam people.
- Do not abuse glitches in the economy or the system as a whole: report them to Lincoln, otherwise you’re at a disadvantage to getting to the top of
/baltop - Don’t be the one responsible for the server getting shut down in any way (hacking, tampering, etc.): Don’t be the one who ruins the fun
- Be inclusive: Invite people who want in! IMPORTANT CLARIFICATIONS:
- You cannot take away an invite once you give it!
- You are responsible for the people you invite. If your invitee breaks server rules, your own standing may be at risk
- Do not invite yourself - you are allowed ONLY one account
- No unfair advantages: Auto clicking and hacking are lame. Also, if you try to xray, it won’t work
