server rules

Kings Peace pledges there will be no violence within the realm of the Kings Peace server and reserves the right to enforce the peace by the three strike rule. We want all members to have fun while playing on the server, but we also want everyone to play fair. If any of the rules have been violated by a member on the Kings Peace server, a warning will result on the first offense, the second offense will result in “jail” (suspension), and a total ban will result on the third offense. There are no exceptions.

STANDARD RULES

The rules apply across the server, no matter the world. The staff has the final say.

No Greifing or looting. If you have not placed an item, claimed or not, you cannot take it. Not everyone will have the claim blocks to claim all of their builds. The staff has the final say. Respect their decision.
No hacks of any kind. If it benefits you as a player then you cannot use it. If you are found to be using a mod it will be an instant ban.
Keep the chat clean. We are a family-friendly server and welcome young members. No swearing or being rude. No inappropriate topics. No trolling of others or constantly asking for items. The idea is you work to find your items. Or purchase them in the shop.
Keep builds clean and appropriate. Players cannot build within a 128 block radius (or 8 chunks) without the player’s permission. If you are unsure of the distance, press F3+G to get the chunk borders to show.
NO lava casting or use of giant bodies of water. This lags the server and will result in punishment.
No avoiding afk or afk farming. You must be present for farms to work. You cannot use ways of avoiding afk or idling. No afk pools, auto clickers, or other ways to keep yourself in-game.
Please keep skins and account names clean. If asked to change something please do or it may result in a temp ban until it is changed.
No claiming entire rare biomes.
Only 1 claim per person of monuments/villages/pillager outposts etc. This means it is fair for everyone to have a generated structure.
No claims in the nether. You may build there but that is at your own risk.
No farms in the nether.

ENTITY + FARM RULE GUIDE

We appreciate that many players like to build large farms to get lots of resources, however, to prevent lag, and to limit any negative effects that one player's farms may have on another player, we have a few guidelines for appropriate farms.

Banned Farm Types

Cobble / Stone Generators.
Auto-Fishing Farms.
Any type of farm that uses bonemeal in a dispenser.
Any farm breaking AFK/idle rules.
Unsure of your farm type. Please ask us.

Hoppers

Please use hoppers sparingly as they cause lag.
To reduce lag, please keep hopper chains to 6 or less
No more than 32 hoppers in a loaded area.
If in doubt please ask the staff!

Pistons / Dispensers / Observers

Please limit the number of units activated simultaneously.
Please limit how frequently these units are activated.
If in doubt please ask the staff!

Overall Entity Limit

There is an overall entity limit of 250 entities.
This can be checked by opening the debug info screen (press f3 on pc) and looking for the line beginning with E: (currently the 5th line from the top of the screen). The number you need to check is the number after the /. So if the debug screen shows E:8/41, the total entities in the area are 41.

Mob Farms

2 blocks per mob in your farm.
Mob Farm Max of 100 MOBS per individual Farm.
An exception of 26 Mobs in a 1x1. (1 Block = y: 0 - 255)
A Mob Farm within 128 Blocks of someone else’s Mob Farm is against the rules as the Mob Count merges together!

Grinders and Mob Softeners

These are allowed, and even encouraged, without breaking the AFK rules! (refer to server rules)
Mob farm outputs/kill zones must be 1x1. This applies to Hostile and Passive farms.

Guardian Farm Size Limit

There is a size limit for guardian farms of 20x20 blocks of active spawn area. This is both to prevent lag and to prevent them impacting negatively on the productivity of other player's farms. This limit applies to the water spawning area of the farm and does not include the outer frame.

Mob Spawners

Making farms from mob spawners where they are found in the world is perfectly fine however the spawner blocks themselves cannot be moved or changed in any way.
If the spawner is Accidentally broken, it shall not be replaced.

Automatic Farms

These Farm Types are to be ones where a player must wait before the farm can produce. No zero-tick or 'quantum-tick' farms.
No Wither Sekelton farms that use redstone or wither roses.
No farms that use TNT.
Auto crop farms using farmer villagers are limited to 4. Max Size 27 x 27 Blocks per Farm - 1 Farmer per farm.
Auto Fish Farms and Auto bonemeal dispenser-type farms are forbidden.
No Wither Farms.
Large Stacked Auto Farms Must be Underground - if on the surface they must be blended in.
Please be careful to ensure no large amounts of water is falling creating server lag.
Slime Farms - Remember, many players have Slime Farms, and with your one turned on it usually affects the performance of others farms. We have decided a restriction is needed, like villager farms, of 2 Slime Chunks.

Farms

No Farms on top of the nether, or in the end. Enderman XP farms an exception!
Any Questions regarding Farm Building please ask.

INFORMATIONAL

If you have not been active on the server for 6 weeks you may lose your claim of rare structures. Your home base will not be affected and you will receive claim blocks back. This allows for others who play regularly to have the chance to have a structure.
Use nether portals at your own risk. There is a chance they can spawn over lava or past the world border. Items lost will not be replaced.
End portals can spawn in the void. Use one at your own risk.

Rules are subject to change in the event we see a need for it. Violations of the rules can be reported on the contact us page and we will investigate the situation.
