The Rules Have Issues

Stop acting like you don’t know, I just responded to your “questions” that you made

I asked for clarification on the camping rule, and you said you can stop them with enderpearls.

Chat trolling is defined as any sort of language meant to confuse, trick, or troll other players.
We do not mind traps, but if you say something in chat that is meant to trick or troll a player, for example “step on this pressure plate for a free rank”, I do not think that is allowed. It would be a chat trolling offence.

Just use signs then

As of about a half hour ago (aprox. 6:30 pm EST, 19/10/17) the official rules were updated. Most of the rules make sense, however some just don't.

1) "Users with a Youtuber rank may advertise their channels and other social media accounts."

From what I understand, this means regular players can not promote their channels, In the past they could as long as they didn't spam, which I though was good. It gave players a chance to get more subscribers. Now on YT rankers can, and that means players need to go to other severs or popular youtubers comment section so that they can get a YouTube rank on Cubecraft.

2) Camping is defined as intentionally avoiding playing the game as intended by making it impossible or near impossible to access you. Camping is strictly prohibited.

Would thing include me breaking my bridge to mid or not making one at all in eggwars? What about never leaving my island in skywars? If both of those a punishable, what about other players constantly breaking the bridges in team modes whether you rebuild them or not?

3) Trolling is defined as intentionally taking an action with the sole purpose of annoying, upsetting, or bullying another player. Trolling is strictly prohibited.

Trolling can take many forms, like killing/injuring teammates, breaking crafting tables to steal from teammates, breaking defenses for no reason in games like Blockwars, spamming a player with friend/party invites or intentionally blocking teammates from building towers in Tower Defense.

This is something I had a big issue with. As some of you may know, I received a warning for trolling a while back.

What had happened was, I used the 'Bomber' kit in skywars, to build a trap. I told someone to step on it and they would receive an achievement, when in reality they would be blown up and die. At the time, this was not stated as being against the rules in any way, nor is it now. I was told that it would be made clear in the rules, and about a month later it is still not covered. So, is it still punishable or not?

4) These changes are not promoted anywhere.

Originally posted in Discord by Spyro, these changes to the rules are not posted in a warning on the server. I believe that a clear message should come up when you join the server for the next few days, as well as timed message, like the sentinel one. This would stop players from being punished on rules that they didn't know changed. Lots of players don't use the forums, and I only found out they were changed anyway on discord like 20 minutes ago. And don't tell me players should be checking the forums every day for rule changes, that's unrealistic.

EXAMPLE

I like the idea of timed posts in chat about the rules!

The necro post rule is forums exclusive it dosent affect the server at all, it also keeps old posts and sometimes outdated from being put on top, such as the time someone necroposted on the very first bug report cube had that was to a game no longer here, if the last reply is older than 2 weeks please dont post on it @ChaosConjurer

These issues are still relevant, why lock? It'll just burden the OP to re-post the thread, counter-intuitively spamming the forums even more.

Yes, it is. Only sometimes, though. Obviously we don't want a thread announcing the release of Blockwars being revived, but for suggestions I feel the OP themselves should be allowed to necropost so long as the suggestion is unseen, or support threads if the issues addressed are ongoing.

Shouldn't this require a lock now, since you just necroposted? @ChaosConjurer

Hello! Please avoid posting on threads that haven't been replied on within the last 14 days as this is necro-posting which is against the rules:

No necroposting on threads that have been inactive for over 2 weeks. Does not apply to news posts, games, or introduction threads.

Should you have any questions, feel free to message me here.
- Thread locked.
