World Edit

• BE CAREFUL WITH THESE. We recommend that you practice a bit to get a feel for how this works. It is very easy to accidentally create big chunks of hovering water, which could cause server lag issues. Especially be wary of things that change lighting, because Minecraft uses a lot of CPU to recalculate lighting. Lava is the worst offender, but water can cause problems when done high up over an area. Generally, only use this tool to fill whirlpools, or help players build underwater. Be aware that //fixwater and //fixlava ONLY do one single layer, and so don't fill underneath things, so they are inappropriate for eg re-filling a lake with a building in it.
• /fixlava <RADIUS> = Fixes lava
• /fixwater <RADIUS> = Fixes water
• //drain <RADIUS> = Removes water

Snapshots

• daily.X up to 7: daily snapshots. It takes the oldest snapshot from roughly midnight the current day.
• weekly.X up to 3: weekly snapshots from Sunday.
• //restore hourly.1/world: restores the 'world' snapshot from hourly.1
• //restore weekly.1/creative: restores the 'creative' snapshot from weekly.1

LogBlock

Policies

What Constitutes Griefing?

An excerpt from our code of conduct:

- (We) define "griefing" as "intentionally ruining someone else's play experience", and includes things like spamming lava or water over structures, vandalizing structures to make people angry at you, or wholesale destruction without clear purpose.

Other things like setting your home in lava and then inviting everyone in to die, pushing afk players into death traps, breaking and entering homes, etc, are considered unsporting and may result in a griefing ban.

Local or Global?

Global Ban Reasons

Global bans are to be used with the user commits a severe rule violation, as this significantly impacts their gameplay. Valid reasons for Global Bans are, but are not limited to:

• Griefing, (Destroying items/blocks NOT owned by the user)

• Causing harm to the server

• Hacking (Exploits) - be specific

• X-Ray Modifications (Texture packs or otherwise)

• Racism/Homophobia/Sexism etc.

• Nazi Symbols

Invalid reasons for global bans are, but are not limited to:

• Harassment to users/staff (This can possibly be one sided)

• Spamming ("Spamming" as a reason, is not permitted, please be detailed with this reason eg. spambot)

• Alternate account of ... (Normal servers are NOT permitted to make alternate account bans, unless that account also falls into the valid ban rules category)

• Bans with ANY harassment/foul language (Bans made before October 1st 2011 do not violate this rule)

• "AVO" or other such griefing teams (Please refer users such as these to an MCBans staff member)

• Impersonation of MCBans Staff

• Impersonation of Planet Minecraft staff, or similar

• Threats and advertising

PLEASE be able to provide screenshot or log proof for every ban that has been logged in our system. If the user opens an appeal, we *WILL* ask for you to provide us with a link to the proof which you have.

Local Bans

When in doubt, go with a local ban. Things we often ban for include:

• Spam, Threats and Advertising.

• Using an account to circumvent a ban, or being an alt of a banned account.

• Impersonation of McBans, Planet Minecraft or other authority figures .

• Theft that does not fall under the griefing banner.

• Exploitation of duplicating bugs.

• Harrassment of others, in chat or otherwise.

• Being a troll or other massive waste of moderator or admin time.

Abusive or derogatory language is not acceptable. Swearing can be okay, up to a certain point, past which it is not okay. At the judgment of a moderator, you can be muted or banned for behaviour that would get your ass kicked or thrown in jail IRL.
