It has come to my attention that chat is now out of control. I gave you guys leniency and you have taken it too far. So it's going to stop. For us to develop as a community we need to be friendly and welcoming to new players and not have them face abusive, nasty and hate filled chat when they log in. I'm not trying to be a hardass, but you guys have given me no option.
There will be no more offensive Clan Ranks, Sword/Bow names, signs in plots or Clan Home, or anywhere else an Observer/Sr Observer/Professor deems inappropriate.
Offensive Clan Ranks - I suggest you change these immediately. If you get caught with an offensive clan rank, you will get 1 warning and 5 minutes to change it before the entire clan is disbanded.
Sword/Bow names - as per clan ranks. You change it yourself or we will change it for you.
Signs in clan home or plots - Remove them immediately. We will be checking.
Some words are not allowed at all in General Chat, and the consequences are listed below;
The C word that rhymes with brunt. Instant 3 hour temp ban
The C word that rhymes with moon. Instant 3 hour temp ban
The N word that rhymes with trigger. Instant 3 hour temp ban
The W word that rhymes with more. Instant 3 hour temp ban
The G word that rhymes with hey and the F word that rhymes with bag. Instant 3 hour temp ban.
Any other racist terms that an Observer/Professor deems inappropriate with also be subject to the temp ban if deemed necessary.
I expect every Researcher to enforce these rules with extreme prejudice, due diligence and use common sense.
If someone gets 3 warns within 30 minutes, they need to be temp muted.
The minimum time to mute for is 10 minutes.
If a player comes off a mute and continues the behaviour, mute for 20 minutes.
If players are having a chat fight, warn them once to take it to PM's and then tempmute both parties.
I would like to have a friendly conversation with your leaders as soon as possible. Please get in touch with me.
do you even powerclean?
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
[Founder] of the most successful clan I have seen on Minecraft yet. Together we are unstoppable when it comes to pvp, building, and raiding. Long. Live. [MooLa]
I hope with this new set of rules, people will clean up their acts. The whole Chat Mod team will definitely do our best to improve the chat from now on.
Looks like an awesome addition to the Pstone family, however I got a suggestion to make concerning this theme.
For a /clan home to be established, the clan needs a minimum of 1,800,000.00 $ to fund the pstones. But I feel like this is a too high requirement for a clan to achieve. Smaller clans then POP/Purdy/Moola and Mob have very limited funds and also limited man power. This is why I feel like every player wants to join these clans because they have a clan home. Nobody is willing to spend soo much time and soo much money into a clan base when they can join a clan that already has one.
I suggest a much lower requirement for clans to get their home. I was thinking of 1,075,000.00 $. This contains 3 land pstones (by each member since a clan must at least have 3 members ) - 3 chest pstones and 1 other stone (chest/use/snitch/PvP). The clan requires a clan spawn, a farm with work area and a private chest room.
This should give smaller, but interesting and sometimes highly powerful, clans the opportunity to get a clan home. I wouldn't be motivated to get 1.85mil when I don't know many people on the server. And more clan homes mean more dedication.
---
Another suggestion about the Points shop:
At this very moment, a beacon (nether star) costs you 250 points. This is too much when you compare it to the other way of getting a nether star. For only 150 points, you can buy 3 Wither Skulls that can easily lead to a nether star. It's not hard at all to kill a wither since it doesn't brake blocks on the server. So I would suggest a lower price for the nether star: 175 points.
I for one actually believe that your section suggesting a change to clan homes is way off the mark. I am leader of one of the more powerful clans on the server and we only have 3 people (one of which has gone inactive recently) and we were able to obtain a clan home and in a little under 5 days. To me, especially coming from other clan based servers - some not to be named - a clan home is a sign that a clan is truly a "good" clan. And although it is easier for larger clans to achieve it is not impossible to, as a smaller clan, like I said before my clan was the fastest to do it we are also by far the smallest. The clan home is probably best viewed as a right-of-passage, something difficult to obtain and a marker of a clan capable of working hard and meeting rigorous requirements. To me clans aren't even "real" clans unless they have a clan home, it shows they can be attacked because they have something they can easily defend. Maybe this is just me being a stickler, but the cost of a clan home is definitely not something that should be lowered.
The server just went down, i dont know what happened, but Breeza if you are reading this. Some poeple have spent lots of time on this, and dont want this server shutdown do to a couple immature kids.
Suggestion: Add the buying and selling of netherrack and netherbrick to the Pioneer shop. Players who come back from mining for quartz or exploring in the Nether want to sell their blocks, but end up disposing them instead. Also, buying netherbrick would be easier for people to build things that include netherbrick (like me :3 I need lots of netherbrick. mainly why I'm making this post xD ). Hope you implement my idea Breeza!
How long have you been on this server? Since Day One!
What is your ontime? 148 Hours (Just got back into the server :D)
Have you ever been muted/banned? Muted a few times... small 10 minute ones when I joke around with mods/ admins.. no serious offenses though.
Why should we choose you to be a Researcher? There are a multitude of reasons that I should be chosen as a researcher of BRF!
A few being......
-I am a dedicated player and will show good ontime! (now that I am back of course :D)
-As it stands now.. and in the near future I am in an unbiased position for chat moderation and will favor no one!
-I am mature in the chat (when I need to be... :3)
-All I do currently is run around the world and chat... so I'm quite active in the chat itself.
- Also... I love this server, and I love the people on it! And I love being able to help people, and to stop every upcoming chat argument that I always have the pain of spectating. (this will hopefully mostly end with that new rival chat :P) I have multiple friends (and to my knowledge) no REAL enemies. I am a friend member of the community, and I hope to be as much of an assistant as I can be to helping it thrive and grow!
I hope you pick me to be a Researcher of Breeza's Research Facility Thanks for reading my applictaion (sorry the fonts didn't want to be nice to me and work right :P)
And what about bypassing that filter to say those words?
Until said otherwise, until this is discussed normal chat rules will infer. However, I would like all Researchers and Observers to /warn on top of punishment for avoiding the chat filter.
Suggestion!! (This only applies to the cancer research donation)
Add a fundraiser bar so we can see how much money the has been actually donated. By the end of the year we can see the total of all the money that has been donated. And maybe we can do something special.

What is your in-game name? TheWookeh
How old are you? 14 Years of Age
What is your rank? Pioneer
How long have you been on this server? Day after the server opened, so I believe July 15th.
What is your ontime? 311hours Edited 9/8/2013 at 8:55 PM EST
Have you ever been muted/banned? I have been muted once, for being caught up in the moment in a PVP arguement.
Why should we choose you to be a Researcher? There are a few reasons why I believe I would be a great Researcher. One is I enjoy helping people and giving back to the community. Whenever someone asks a question, I make it my job to answer the question quickly and thoroughly. I average 95-110 words per minute when I type, making answering questions a snap. I believe I am overall liked in the community by most people, and don't hold grudges, so I will not be biased with decisions such as warnings, mutes, and bans. I have a lot of experience on the server, so I will be able to answer most, if not all of the questions I am asked, and I will answer then thoroughly. I also have a guard account, so I understand some of the procedures and guidelines to being staff on this server. I know I may be looked at as having a somewhat "trolly" personality, but when given a job like this, I will go above and beyond to fulfill the job in a hard working and serious manner. To add on, as you can see with my on time, I am extremely active on the server. I spend a lot of my free time on here, and I am always doing what I can to help everyone.
I hope my Researcher application is considered, as I'd love to experience the moderation position of a server. Thank you to the admin team for running this amazing server, and thanks to any potential +1's to my application.

Ok, so the temp ban part of this post no longer applies as all the words I mentioned are now blocked by our CHAT FILTER.
Until said otherwise, until this is discussed normal chat rules will infer. However, I would like all Researchers and Observers to /warn on top of punishment for avoiding the chat filter.
