Guidelines

Open Redstone Engineers - General Guidelines

This is currently a compiled list of general guidelines to ensure good conduct and behavior on our servers. Violation of these "rules" can range anywhere from a written warning to an indefinite ban.

In-Game:

Maintain polite conversation (do not badmouth other players or engage in excessive swearing).
Refrain from excessive use of racist, sexist, antisemitic, or otherwise derogatory remarks regarding a specific group of people.
Your account is your responsibility. If actions are performed under your account, you will be held liable.
Do not take credit for creations that are not your own. Any plagiarism may result in a reprimand.
Respect the boundaries of plots and their owners’ rules.
Avoid causing a lot of lag with WorldEdit.
Do not ask for a rank increase.
Do not post NSFW(18+) material to any service.
Generally, be kind to others.

Forums:

Do not post in the application subforum unless you are applying. These will result in a warning on the forums.
Do not post in un-affiliated incident reports or ban appeal threads. These will result in a warning on the forums.
Avoid making multiple threads just for the sake of shit-posting.
In general, follow the terms of service pointed out here.

IRC:

Bots:
- Bots should only speak to the user who would like for it to be spoken to. Be it either a command-based bot or an updater bot that notifies, it should receive the explicit consent of the recipient to receive the message.
- Output needs to be 1:1 with input and should not be manipulated into spamming or being looped.
- Bots should be developed in the #orebotspam IRC channel. Once a bot has been sufficiently developed, it can then be used in #openredstone.
- Bots should incorporate some form of permission system if it is capable of running IRC commands, print raw data, or manipulating itself.
When speaking, avoid spam just as like in-game.
Do not post NSFW(18+) material.
As a tip: post short URLs, because many long URLs do not work from in-game.

The staff of Open Redstone Engineers reserves the right to modify these rules at any given time.

The ORE MyBB forums are being retired. Please use the new discussion board. View more information regarding the migration.
