The server rules were adopted in the broad group chat on 28 August 2026 after arguments about exile, griefing, creative-mode access, and the place of political conflict in ordinary survival play.
Baseline rules
The text proposed by catgirlfeet established four rules:
- No griefing unless both parties agree and the defenders are online.
- No exile without agreement from both parties.
- No random killing without an actual story context.
- No use of creative mode or give commands for an unfair material advantage, except when the same advantage is provided to everyone.
The group was asked to approve the rules unanimously. Responses were brief, but on 31 August trolling reposted the same rules and described them as the only server rules.[1]
Public Minecraft chat later confirms the griefing rule in practice. When trolling asked whether the Cat Hill capital could be struck with a high-impact spell, catgirlfeet replied that griefing without two-party consent could result in a ban.[2]
Recorded polls
| Date | Question | Recorded result | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 29 August | Keep inventory on or off | On, 67% | Keep-inventory remained enabled |
| 30 August | Petition to remove all magic mods | Nay, 60% | The blanket removal proposal failed |
The exports do not preserve a complete voter roll in the poll summary, so percentages should not be treated as a census of the entire server.
Enforcement
Enforcement remained informal and administrator-led. The rules constrained roleplay rather than creating a full legal system. DPRCH discussions of a supreme or high court did not establish a server-wide judiciary.
