In-game Rules

Keep chat clean / spam • toxicity • discrimination

• No spam, flood, caps abuse, or repetitive messages.
• No harassment, hate speech, discrimination, or “dating” in public chat.
• No NSFW, gore, or overly toxic content in chat, builds, skins or names.
• English in global chat — use /msg for other languages or private talk.

Do not use disallowed modifications zero tolerance

• Includes: KillAura, Reach, Velocity/AntiKB, Fly, Speed, Scaffold, X-Ray, AutoClicker, Macros, Baritone, Printer.
• Minimaps with player/radar, ESP, chest stealers, auto-armor, scaffold — all banned.
• Double-binding (multiple keys for same action) is disallowed.
• Using external programs like FilterKeys to change repeat delay/rate is prohibited.
• Binding mouse clicks to keyboard inputs is disallowed.
• Rule of thumb: if a mod lets you do what vanilla can’t — it’s not allowed.
• Allowed: OptiFine, Sodium, Lithium, Lunar/Badlion (without unfair mods), fullbright via gamma, CPM overlay.

Full list is similar to the MCPVP disallowed mods sheet. When in doubt, ask staff before using.

PvP & Combat — PokenMC specific not on MCPVP, but needed here

• PvP is ON everywhere except Spawn / Safe Zones. Entering wild = consent.
• No combat logging — logging, /spawn, /home, /tpa while combat-tagged (30s) = kill + loot drop + ban escalation.
• No safe-zone abuse — no hit-and-run into safe zones or border camping.
• No spawn camping the same player. Ganks happen, harassment doesn’t.
• KeepInventory is OFF in PvP worlds — you drop on death, no refunds.

Do not advertise / servers • groups • streams

• No advertising other servers, SMPs, Discords, or groups in chat.
• Live streams are allowed as live @username — no links unless you have YouTuber rank.
• Don’t promote a stream then switch off PokenMC.

Do not exploit or lag the server

• No duping, glitching, or bug abuse — report it in Discord ticket, don’t use it.
• No lag machines, redstone clocks, 500+ entity farms, or obsidian spam to lag fights.
• No intentionally crashing or lowering server performance.

Found an exploit? Report it → you might get rewarded. Abuse it → you get banned.

Do not threaten safety or impersonate

• No doxxing, DDoS threats, or harassment of players — instant perma.
• No staff impersonation or fake system messages.
• Use appropriate usernames/skins — no offensive or impersonating names.

Do not evade punishments

• Ban evasion on alts = both accounts banned longer.
• Don’t use VPN alts to bypass mute/ban.
• Appeal only at discord.pokenmc.fun — be honest, include IGN/clip/date.

Punishments

• Hacks / Dupe / Exploit: permanent ban, no appeal unless false flag with proof.
• Combat log: warn & kill → 1d → 7d → 30d → perma
• Chat / Toxic / Spam / Advertise: warn → mute 3h → 1d → 7d → 30d
• Evading / Impersonating: 7d → 30d → perma

Anticheat bans are automatic and logged. All cases are reviewed at discord.pokenmc.fun. Don’t argue in chat — open a ticket.
