[spoiler][b][color=red][COLOR=black]1)[/color][color=red]No Excuses[/color][/COLOR][/b]

[color=black]Griefing anything isn’t an accident. There are only 4 things that break[/color]
[color=black]instantly when punched (Flowers, Mushrooms, Pictures and Torches). Anything else[/color]
[color=black]requires the deliberate and conscious holding of the ‘Block break’ (Left) mouse[/color]
[color=black]button. Glass even has a 3 second break time. This means NOBODY should have any reason to be breaking blocks. AT ALL! Unless roleplay demands it. Breaking a block is not an accident. It is willingly done, and is to stop. The worst we should be seeing is players ‘tapping’[/color]
[color=black]the blocks. But complete breaking of blocks is just not on.[/color]

[b][color=black][COLOR=red]2) Reporting Players and Griefs[/color][/COLOR][/b]

[color=black][COLOR=black]Players are no longer to be shouting ‘GRIEF’ or ‘SOMEONES GRIEFED THE COMMON[/color][/COLOR]
[color=black][COLOR=black]ROOM’.[/color] It is nothing but ingame spam. It achieves nothing, and is just annoying to[/COLOR]
[color=black]listen to. If you notice a grief be sensible and mature. Is it single block[/color]
[color=black]damage? Is it large area damage? Is it a whole room? The Staff need information! Not just random spamming. Providing staff with[/color]
[color=black]information is the best way for players to help [b][COLOR=#c45e00]against[/color][/b] the [b][color=#c45e00]griefers[/color][/b] ingame. [/COLOR]

[color=black]From now on if on your travels you notice any form of grief you are to report[/color]
[color=black]it in the following manner to staff. It is not to be spammed or screamed in[/color]
[color=black]chat.[/color]

[b][color=black][u]PM Staff:[/u][/color][/b]

[color=black] Use the /msg system ingame to[/color]
[color=black]PRIVATE MESSAGE an online staff member directly.[/color]
[color=black](You MUST provide details in the message; they can be simple details such as what’s[/color]
[color=black]missing)[/color]

[color=black]OR[/color]

[b][color=black][u]Ingame Staff Mail:[/u][/color][/b]

[color=black] Should you not want[/color]
[color=black]to spend time talking and discussing the grief you have found and move on[/color]
[color=black]playing. Use the ingame mailing system to send an ONLINE Admin, Moderator, or[/color]
[color=black]Operator an Inbox message. Should none be online, send a message to a staff[/color]
[color=black]member you know and trust who’s offline. But ONLINE Admins, Moderators and[/color]
[color=black]Operators must be messaged first![/color]

[color=black]To do this simply use /mail to pull up your ingame mail menu. You should have[/color]
[color=black]options such as ‘read’ ‘clear’ and ‘send [to] [msg]’[/color]

[color=black]To send a message to a staff member you do the following in chat! (Without the[/color]
[color=black]brackets)[/color]

[color=black]First press F3 ingame to bring up the maps details, locations and computers[/color]
[color=black]usage meters.[/color]

[color=black]You must include the X, Y, and Z co-ordinates in the following manner. e.g. (X=120,[/color]
[color=black]Y=200, Z=60)[/color]
[color=black]THIS IS A MUST! Seeing as you won’t be at the location and are moving on we[/color]
[color=black]must be able to track the location of where you saw the griefs. Also only include the whole numbers, ignore the decimal points![/color]

[color=black]Then use the following chat command in your chat[/color]

[color=black]/mail send [Players name your sending to] [Type your message here] [/color]

[color=black]then press enter to send it off to the staff member. The staff will receive an[/color]
[color=black]ingame mail to deal with it accordingly.[/color]

[color=black]e.g. [/color]
[color=black] /mail send predator289 ‘Hey pred found a small window grief X=200, Y=120, Z=40. Thx’[/color]

[color=black]THAT’S IT! Your done, and it will be fixed when the staff can get round to[/color]
[color=black]doing it. [/color]
[color=black] Also only send it to one[/color]
[color=black]person. DO NOT spam all staff members[/color]
[color=black]online with the same messages, or it will be considered spamming. It will be[/color]
[color=black]fixed when the staff member you chose gets time to look at it.[/color]

[b][color=black][COLOR=red]3) Staff Block Access:[/color][/COLOR][/b]

[color=black]Staff have ingame access to see the complete[/color]
[color=black]history of any block ingame at anytime. We can EASILLY find out who placed or[/color]
[color=black]removed a block, their name, the exact server time, and the exact date. Think you won’t get caught? You will be![/color]

[color=black][img]i104.photobucket.com/albums/m189/predator289/Greif3.jpg[/img][/color]

[color=black][img]i104.photobucket.com/albums/m189/predator289/Greif1.jpg[/img][/color]

[color=black]Also should you have an accident, please tell us straight away. We can easily come[/color]
[color=black]and fix your accident, and we will not be harsh at all. Should you have a[/color]
[color=black]decent reason...Accidents happen and we are more than happy for you to tell us.[/color]
[color=black]We will be happy you actually told us so we can fix them up! But break it and[/color]
[color=black]leave without telling someone, and we catch you... watch out![/color]

[color=black]Keep in mind that breaking a block to get through into a hidden room or tower[/color]
[color=black]is not an accident, and you will be treated as a griefer. If you can’t easily gain[/color]
[color=black]access to something without mining, digging or breaking blocks, then you SHOULDN'T be there. [/color]

[color=black]Let this be the Last and Final warning to those considering Griefing. It stops[/color]
[color=black]now! Staff and Builders spend too much time building the ingame structures only to have them damaged and broken a few hours later. It isnt fair. It isnt acceptable.[/color]

[color=black]Now lets all do our part to stop these people. Remember be sensible, be mature and contact staff properly without spamming. That way its less chaos, noise and the server will be more enjoyable for everyone to play on [img]illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img][/color]
[color=black][b][u]Attention Staff Only[/u]:[/b] Should no log show for the block area simply fix it and[/color]
[color=black]move on. Any current griefs should show. Do not linger trying to find out who[/color]
[color=black]did it, unless you have information.[/spoiler][/color]
[color=black][b]Staff Guidelines:[/b][/color]
[color=black](click the spoiler to open)[/color]
[color=black][spoiler][/color]

[color=black][b][u]TO STAFF:[/u][/b] Should players be spamming and discussing griefs ingame, please direct them to this thread on the Forums. It has been 'Announcement Stickied' and is easy to find.[/color]

[color=black]Also for handling [b][COLOR=#c45e00]griefers[/color][/b] in-game please use the following system to control banning and allow for players to discuss actions.[/COLOR]

[color=black]If a player who shows on your logs is [u]Online[/u] /msg them privately and discuss the grief. If they are [u]Offline[/u] please use the /mail system to issue them their ONE warning.[/color]

[color=black]If it be a small grief (such as 1x Block or 3x Blocks): Players are to receive ONE warning first. (I would suggest keeping a pen and pad of names you have mailed/msg'd your warning to).[/color]

[color=black]Should that player show up again after you have issued your First warning then you may choose to ban them or give them a temporary 2 day ban as cooldown should you be feeling generous. If they are not online it is your decision.[/color]

[color=black]For large area griefs it is at your jurisdiction to decide on a fair punishment. You may ban should they become hostile. Or you may choose to give them a temporary 2 day ban as cooldown should you be feeling generous. If you are unsure of what should be done depending on the griefs size and intensity ask your fellow staff peers on their opinions.[/color]

[color=black][COLOR=red][u]REMEMBER: Please use fairness, maturity, be unbiased, and professional.[/u][/color][/COLOR]

[color=black]Also: 2 Day bans are preferred over complete bans, but not necessary. But should a player strike up arguments or disrespect staff it becomes your call on how long or how permanent the ban is.[/color]

[color=black]Every ban must have screenshots showing the griefs, logs or conversations between staff and player. This allows those wanting to make appeals a form of evidence should they come back.[/spoiler][/color]

[color=black][b]Texture Pack[/b][/color]
[color=black]This information is for users without the spout client, if you have the spout client the texture pack will be automatically installed and set for you during your duration on the server, once you leave the server your previous texture pack settings will be restored.[/color]

[color=black][b]If on Windows:[/b][/color]
[list]
[*]Press the Start Menu[/*]
[*]Search for Run[/*]
[*]when the run program launches type Appdata[/*]
[*]Proceed to the Roaming Folder[/*]
[*]double click .Minecraft[/*]
[*]Texture Packs

Drag the texture .zip file into the texture folder[/*][/list]
[color=black][b]MCPatcher[/b][/color]

[color=black]Since this texture pack has a resolution of 32x32 pixels it is considered to be an HD texture pack. As you may/may not know minecraft does not support the use of High Definition Texture packs and as a result to get the texture pack to work, you will need to download MCPatcher and run it as directed [u][b][url='www.minecraftforum.net/topic/232701-181-19preupdate-918-mcpatcher-hd-fix-211-01/']here.[/url][/b][/u][/color]

[b][color=black]Official Skin Pack:[/color][/b]

[color=black]A while back a few of our members created a genius and epic skin pack for our enjoyment, and you can download that[/color]

[b][color=black]Installing Spoutcraft![/color][/b]
[color=black][img]cdn.spout.org/img/logo/spoutcraft_440x115.png[/img][/color]


[color=black]Spout-craft is a plugin but with a twist, to actually USE spout-craft in-game, you need to launch Minecraft via the client side launcher. This gives users that use the launcher exclusive access to the spout-craft plugins installed on the server.[/color]

[color=black]Being a spout enabled server does not mean that people who connect via the normal Minecraft launcher will be unable to connect. You will still be able to connect, just not be able to access the spout exclusive plugins.[/color]
