Escalated Send Messages With Official Rules

[ShinyArrow]

Hi everyone!

The past few weeks I noticed a huge amount of players broke rules without (probably) knowing they were breaking any rules, since it seems they were just messing around and having fun. It seems like many players don’t even know that rules exist and they are certainly not following the rules.

My suggestion:
Send a message with a link to the official rules on the whole network, an example of a message could be:
Read our official rules HERE.
OR
Have you read our official rules already? Read them HERE.

These messages can be send every 10 (or another time period) minutes or every time someone joins the network.

Why?
As I said a lot of players don’t even know the rules exist and will get punished for breaking rules while that’s not their intention. These players who join CubeCraft to have fun (examples I’ve experienced: sending fake message of their friend getting banned by Sentinel or sending 3+ times a message about their friends, which isn’t allowed but could be done to make a funny movement), but get punished for breaking rules. If a message will be send in the chat, there is a larger chance of players reading the rules and that they follow the rules.

Of course there already is the '/rules' command, but without announcing this command no one will ever use this command.

Note: obviously when someone breaks the rules they should get punished for it, even if they don’t know the rules, but the rules needs to be pushed more imo.​

I doubt if a lot of people will check it out, but broadcasting the message every while would be no harm! It will definitely be helpful to those who do read it. +1

I agree, but maybe not every 10 mins. If playing for an hour, 6 times in that whole time could be very annoying. But I like it.

That's true! It was just an example of a time period, I changed that part of the suggestion, thanks!

I liked this how it used to be. They would broadcast something like type /rules to read the rules and it would give you a simple short rules list with a link to a bigger list with more detail etc.

i agree for sure!
especially in things like among slimes, i've noticed a lot of people dont even know you cant troll or what is seen as trolling! (refering to rule 1.11) its a small change and despite not everyone reading it, it would still make a difference. besides, people cant say "but i didnt know" anymore.

I definitely agree with this!

I like the idea in general, I personally dislike the idea of getting this even when you've played the server for 6 years. I think you should get a book when you first join the server (One comparable to the books you get when there's an update) which says like ''read the rules here:'' (ofcourse worded better). Going to escalate this. :)

Maybe there could be a message in chat when you join a game with 1 random rule(of that game). This will make sure most of the people read it and they don't have to press a link. Kinda like a loading screen message.

Good suggestion, i hope they add something like this!

i totally agree with you, more people should know the rules, but people are very lazy to read them.

I totally agree but i think they should make like something in your Hotbar to read all the in game rules.
