¶ Network Rules
Last updated: January 14th, 2021
By connecting to GuildCraft, you agree to all of the following rules.
GuildCraft should be an enjoyable and safe environment for everyone. To achieve this, we have formulated specific rules and corresponding punishments that are enforced by our staff team. If you see an individual breaking any of the following and there are no Staff members present, then please submit a player report here.
You can view our forum rules here.
You can view our nickname/prefix rules here.
You can view our skin rules here.
You can view our disallowed modifications here.
The punishments are listed below each rule. Exceptions may be made for special circumstances. If you feel you were punished for an invalid reason, we must ask you to refrain from causing a commotion and instead submit an appeal here.
Staff can punish for extended lengths of time depending on severity, and some rules may not be documented on this page.
Players are expected to familiarize themselves with the rules upon utilizing any of our services;
I didn't know that this was against the rules
This will not be accepted as an appeal or excuse in any case.
GuildCraft reserves the right to modify the rules at any time and you are obliged to inform yourself about any changes that have been made.
All rules listed here are valid for every server on GuildCraft. Exceptions may be made per rule, those are mentioned in the individual rule or the category of each server below.
You are responsible for your account, and thus anyone who can get on it. This means any punishments issued to your account while another player is using it are linked to your account.
Anything said outside of GuildCraft services may be up for punishment too, if it's extreme and confirmed by management. We also do punish for personal messages depending on the situation.
My sibling logged into my account and did that
This is not a valid excuse either and won't be accepted in an appeal.
I can't find the rule I was punished for
If you got punished for a rule that isn't stated on this page, please make sure to appeal an unmute or an unban in our forums. Also feel free to contact a higher staff member. We will then investigate the whole situation a bit more.
Any chat messages caught by the filters or any chat otherwise not seen in the public can still be moderated, and senders are held accountable to all the rules.
¶ Offenses
First-Time offenders may be issued a warning
If offenders refuse to heed the warning and continue with their misdeeds, staff should proceed with the punishments listed below. Exceptions can be made for players who have been around for some time and are aware that they're breaking the rules.
