Controversy
Some members of the wider CivCraft community believe that there is controversy surrounding the server and it's owners. This information is outlined in the above-linked article.
History
After a beta starting November 29, 2020 at 12:00 PM EST, CivUniverse officially released on December 27, 2020 at 12:00 PM EST.
Duping
On the evening of January 7, 2021, the administration was alerted to suspicious activity by one of the former developers on the server. After a thorough investigation, it was determined that spacejeanss (aka. ubcd) inserted a command that converted a single item into a full item stack, allowing anyone to duplicate stackable items. The server was abruptly taken down to remove the offending command. The blocks duplicated by ubcd and man_page were located and removed. Both players received a permanent ban for exploits.

8. You're limited to 2 accounts. A Main account and an Alt account are permitted.
Botting policy:
- Players may use MacroMod or other mods/clients to automate in game tasks and may use external frameworks to communicate with and coordinate bots.
- Bots are only permitted to read inventory, their selected hot bar slot, their location, health, hunger, potion effects, EXP, boss bar, server-provided chat messages, kick reasons, player logins/logouts, and tab list. Reading environmental data is not permitted.
- Macros/bots are not allowed in PVP.
Modding policy:
- Neither you nor any of your game mods may view non vanilla-available client information.
- World downloading tools are allowed if not used to gain information otherwise unknown (e.g. for a city render, but not to scan for bunkers)
- Auto-clickers and Synapse/Interpol are allowed.
Ban policy:
The goal of the administrative team is to remain neutral and not interfere with the server except to enforce the rules. We will only take action on player-submitted evidence of wrong-doing a maximum of 1 month after evidence is discovered. Lying to an administrator during an inquiry into rule-breaking is also grounds for a ban. Ban length is the sole discretion of the administrative team and can range from a day to permanent.
Discord policy:
Community members are free to create and moderate their own Discords in conjunction with CivUniverse. We do not moderate external Discords and players should use them at their own risk. Evidence of external Discords being used for doxxing or illegal activity will result in a ban against those that participated including those that were aware of but did not bring to our attention the existence of such threat.
Worldborder policy:
Vaults and other "defensive infrastructure" are prohibited within 1000 blocks of the worldborder.
Obsidian and bastions cannot be placed at the worldborder.
