Indigo District: Rules

When you first join, you will be spawned here. Please read the signs on the boards around you to become familiar with the server rules, ranks, commands, and minigames! You are given a “starter kit” consisting of the items in the image above. (Use these wisely!)

Here's just a few facts about the spawn area:

The entire spawn area is protected from griefing.
You are “invincible” inside the spawn area! (No hunger depletion, no mob damages) – excluding the Mob Arena.
There is a glowstone border located approximately 100 blocks from the outer pathway. Once you pass the border, the “invincibility” protection disappears, but you may begin building.
You are not permitted to drop items inside the spawn area. Use the “Trade Zone” if you wish to drop items and conduct a trade with other members.

Players are in survival mode in normal difficulty. Mob spawning has been reduced from vanilla levels to improve server performance.

There is the main Survival world (overworld) and a Nether world. The Nether Portals are disabled. (Use the Nether portal located at Survival spawn) The End world and the End Portals are also disabled.

Worlds	Border Size (from X:0 Z:0)	Land Claiming	Griefing	PvP
Survival	100,000	+	-	-
Nether	50,000	-	+	+
The End	50,000	-	+	+

Gold is the official currency for the server, and it can be used in the server shop located at spawn.

You start out as a [Guest] rank on the server which doesn’t give you many commands and perks. It is recommended that you get yourself promoted to a [Member] rank as soon as possible. In order to to do that, you need to build a house (which meets certain requirements), and show a [Mod] or another staff member in-game.

Requirements:

Must be at least 5x5 (width x length) in size, and contain a complete floor, walls, and a roof. They cannot be made of grass/dirt, cobble, or sand.
The entire house must be properly claimed. (using a gold shovel provided in the starter kit or by typing: '/kit claim' – tutorial on how to claim will be explained in the next section)
It must have at least one door, and one window at least 2 blocks wide - can be made of glass, fences, or iron bars
If you have built a house with another player, you must contribute it equally (i.e. you build about 50% of it) with the other player (they can be any rank). Up to two players per house will be promoted to [Member].
The house cannot be built underground or inside a cave.
The house may only be placed in the overworld.

Protect your land and creations from griefers using a gold shovel provided in the starter kit or by typing: ‘/kit claim’ (Part of the “GriefPrevention” plugin).

Step One: Equip yourself with a gold shovel.

Step Two: Imagine creating a rectangular shaped protection zone. Right click anywhere you would like the corner of this rectangle to be.

Step Three:Right click again at the opposite corner of this rectangle.

Thats’s it! Anything within this rectangle is now protected from griefers. Protection is from sky to bedrock.
You can check claim boundaries and the owners of the claims by right clicking with a stick.
All players start with 2,000 claim blocks. You accumulate 1,000 blocks per hour of gameplay, up to a max of 500,000 blocks.

Here are some helpful commands:

/AbandonClaim : Stand in the claim you wish to delete, and type this to delete.
/ClaimsList : Shows your currently active claims, their locations, and your total # of available claim blocks.
/Trust [name] : Gives a player permission to edit in your claim.
/ContainerTrust [name] : Gives a player permission to use your buttons, levers,beds, crafting gear, containers, and animals.
/AccessTrust [name] : Gives a player permission to use your buttons, levers, and beds.
/TrustList : Lists the permissions for the claim you're standing in.
