General Rules
NO CHEATING, (source: TTK2) just as with any other server.

Using client mods to provide a perceivable advantage in game or damage the server is the only action for which I will ban any player. Most anti-cheating is handled by our mods (modifications not moderators), nocheat and orebfuscator which effectively make x-ray mod and fly mod impossible.

Doxxing by obtaining a person's IP address or location is also unacceptable due to the real life threats that can occur from it. Threatening to dox in order to make a player do something is also unacceptable.

OTHERWISE I DO NOT APPROVE, DISAPPROVE OR OTHERWISE AFFECT ANY PLAYER ACTIONS, THERE IS NO &quot;CAN I DO THIS?&quot; ANYTHING OTHER THAN CHEATING GOES PERIOD. YOU DO NOT NEED ADMIN APPROVAL.

Of course this does not mean in game actions have no consequences thanks to some of our mods players can effectively ban a player by imprisoning them in such a way that no one is willing to break them out.

TTK2:

The problem with banning for X-ray is that evidence gathering is incredibly time consuming and for the sort of actions that would indicate use of X-ray requires a lot of talking to people and otherwise gathering information that can't be automated. Since it’s impossible for me or any reasonably sized administration team to do this alone I ask players to take the initiative.

The process is rather simple, first gather evidence and compile it all into a singe clearly titled post (not like this one, but this is a great way to gather evidence) containing all the information you can gather from multiple independent sources. Notify the accused by private message on Reddit or in game. They then have 3 days to respond or they will be imprisoned by default to move the trial along. The accused should make a counter post in the same style as well as pointing out problems with the accuser’s evidence or sources. If either party needs evidence I can produce I will provide it. Both parties can continue to make posts and counter posts until all evidence is presented and I can make a final judgment.

COMMUNITY:

Never post a thread on the subreddit as simple as &quot;Mr. Ish is hacking, I saw it, so please ban him.&quot; You will be downvoted and yelled at for poor evidence. What's good evidence? A video like this that shows off togglesprint is one good example. Screenshots, as well as audio recordings over Mumble are good to have as well. You should have the following in order record someone's hacking when you encounter it:


 * The ability to press F2 and access your Minecraft screenshots from your Minecraft's folder. (External cameras work as well if you can't use this.)
 * A screen recorder like FRAPS, Bandicam, or something that's reliable for at least ten minutes of video in game. It should be able to record at the press of a button.
 * An audio recoder by either using Mumble's recorder or an external recorder. Apps on cell phones that record over a period of time can be useful if you want to record and not let others know.

Try your best to present your case with the evidence you gather, but remember that the admins only ban once it's clear the player hacked or Doxxed. Images can be posted to imgur.com videos can be posted on Youtube, and sounds can be posted to soundcloud.com.

Side note: When it comes to proving someone is worthy of a bounty, the above evidence gathering is also important so that bounty hunters believe you.
