Server Rules
📜 Our Mission
Uphold Free Speech: We believe in freedom of expression. No one gets banned for words here. If someone irritates you, feel free to use the mute feature. Please keep in mind that while we support free speech, excessively testing its boundaries may not be the most effective way to foster positive relationships with your peers.
🛑 Zero Tolerance for Cheating
Cheaters using third-party tools, lag switches, etc., will be banned. We stand for fair play, opposite to official server moderation policies.
🛡️ No Wipes!
Your progress is safe with us! We have no plans for server wipes.
🔧 Lightweight Mods Only
We are committed to maintaining the core gameplay experience, even as we have now included mods. Our goal is to keep the mods minimal and lightweight.
⚔️ PVP Schedule
PVP is active seven days a week:
-- Exiled Lands - 5:00 PM through 11:30 PM
-- Siptah - 10:30 AM through 5:00 PM
(Times displayed here are automatically adjusted to your local time zone. However, if you live in an area that doesn't have daylight savings time, you'll have to do the math yourself. It's 10:30 AM EST to 5:00 PM EST for Siptah, and 5:00 PM to 11:30 PM EST for EL.)
🔃 Server Restarts
Every day at 5:00 AM. (Time displayed here is in your local time zone, 5:00 AM EST if you're somewhere with different daylight savings). Also note, currently I'm performing maintenance every day during the restart, so the restart times are subject to change for a while depending on what time in the morning I get around to it.
⚙️ Settings
Our settings align with an official PVE-C server, with the exceptions of adjusted PvP times and the removal of thrall placement restrictions. Structure damage will always remain off.
📹 Caught a Cheater?
Notify me if you spot any unfair play. Recording evidence helps! Use your video card's built-in recording or tools like OBS (free to use).

Ignoring these could result in a ban:
Language Requirement - Some English fluency is required for global chat to ensure effective community communication.
Cheating is Forbidden - Absolutely no cheating. We're aware of third-party tools and monitor for them. Lag switching isn't tolerated. We can differentiate between it and normal lag. If you need lag switching to PVP, kindly play elsewhere. Do not exploit any in-game mechanics, such as duplication glitches, stat glitches, etc.

Breaking these might result in structure wipes, but we'll first offer a chance for correction. Play responsibly!
Building Limits - Solo players: Limit of 5000 Building Pieces, 500 placeables per Server
Clans of 2: Limit of 5500 Building Pieces, 750 placeables per Server
Clans of 3: Limit of 6000 Building Pieces, 1000 placeables per Server
Clans of 4: Limit of 6500 Building Pieces, 1250 placeables per Server
Clans of 5: Limit of 7000 Building Pieces, 1500 placeables per Server
Clans of 6 (Or supporters regardless of clan size): Limit of 7500 Building Pieces, 1750 placeables per Server
While these are the limits, they should not be a target size for a single base. Please avoid building unreasonably large, lag-inducing bases. Avoid unnecessary features like extensive walls. Instead, try building smaller and pay more attention to detail; you may even be happier with the end results.
Trap Bases & Safe Houses - Avoid building these everywhere. They're visually unappealing, not great for PVP, and use up system resources/land.
Lighting Limitations - Torches and similar items hog system resources. A few lights are okay, but don't turn your base into a Christmas tree.
Obelisks - Don't block them.
Spawn Points - Blocking them is frowned upon. Some points might not matter, but be considerate. However, building on points of interest is alright.
Pathways - Let's avoid major inconveniences. Don't block public paths if there's no remaining convenient way through. As a rule of thumb if someone has to get off a horse to pass your structure, when they normally wouldn't need to, don't do it.
Bridges and Stairs - Massive, unsightly bridges may be deleted. (For example, the one people like to build from south jungle obby on many servers). Likewise if you really feel a staircase is needed somewhere, make an effort to not make it unsightly please.
Land Claims - Short-term claims are fine. Just be sensible.
Personal Space - Respect it. Don't build too close to others.
Don't Kill People, or thralls, in the Portal Hub
When placing a thespian in the hub please make sure they're clothed since they bypass the nudity setting. Additionally don't make them do ridiculous emotes looking or noisy emotes, and don't speed them up. At your own base you can do what ever you want with them. This rule only applies to the hub since it's the first thing everyone is forced to see when joining the server.
No maze style purge bases. They're unnecessary and cause the action queue to become overloaded. Likewise limit the amount of thralls you put at your purge base to a few, having many of them all engaged in a purge will crash the server because of the way the action queue is designed in this game.
Additional Rules for Supporters
Rules for Tot! Customs for Patreon Supporters with admin access:
Tot Customs will be limited to 10 accessories, no unrealistic resizes, one light object, and nothing that obfuscates the player, makes them invisible, or otherwise allows them to cheat in PvP. No resizing weapons.
Warning, setting very large sizes using the resize feature in accessories could result in bricking your character because it will crash you every time you log back in. Use sizes responsibly because all I can do to help in that situation is delete your character.
On Egress doors do not use the announce option.
