 Thank you for your plea. You have been unbanned. Please keep in mind, if this ever happens again it will be a perm ban.
 We look forward to seeing you back on the server.

Famcraft Tutorials, Links and Info / Self Guided Tour of Famcraft
« on: February 15, 2013, 07:26:11 AM »
 Welcome to Famcraft!

 Ideally, Staff would always be online and be able to offer you a tour. Unfortunately,  occasionally new members will join when no staff is available to help out. In that event, please accept this tutorial to help you find your way around the server until a staff member is able to assist you.

 Most of this info is also available at /warp tour

 We also have a few topic specific warps:

/warp mall - takes you to the mall
/warp chestshops - teaches you how to shop or create shops
/warp jobs - explains how to earn money, and lets you press buttons to sign up for jobs
/warp eco - provices a free daily allowance
/warp clans - teaches about clans on Famcraft
/warp pvp - features pvp rules and arenas
/warp homes - To learn about homes
/warp ps - How to protect homes
/warp tp - How to teleport


______________________________________________________________________________

Rules

 Please begin by reading the server rules. These rules are quite basic, but they are very important.

Server Rules:

 Following the rules will make everyone's experience more enjoyable.

1 - Do not advertise other servers on this server. You can discuss other servers here: https://famcraft.com/non-famcraft-servers/

2 - Griefing or stealing another players items is not tolerated.

3 - Deliberate misspelling of words to evade the swear filter will result in a ban.

4 - Abusive, racist, sexual, drug-related, belligerent, political, and generally offensive remarks will not be tolerated in posts, text, skin, private messages, or nick/screen names.

5 - Trading and/or linking to illegal (games, software, films, pornography etc) material is strictly forbidden.

6 - Cheating and/or using client mods while playing on Famcraft will result in an immediate permanent ban. The ONLY two acceptable client mods are Rei's Minimap and Optifine.
   - Rei's Minimap: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/482147-146-dec22-reis-minimap-v32-06/
   - Optifine: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/249637-146-optifine-hd-a3-fps-boost-hd-textures-aa-af-and-much-more/
   - We also recommend Magic Launcher for easily installing the above mods: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/939149-launcher-magic-launcher-100-mods-options-news/

7 -Ganking or persistent harassment of other players is not tolerated.

8 - Persistent hassling of the Mods or Admins for items, spawns, protections or any other method is not tolerated.

9 - Do not spam, this includes using caps or excessive amount of a letter or sign. I will not argue this topic, just don't spam. ex: 111111111 - is considered spamming.

10 - Using the term troll, trollolol is offensive, if your caught doing it you will be kicked/muted. If you persist to continue you will be tempbanned.

11 - Do not ask to become staff. This will cause you to loose your chance at becoming staff.

12 - We have players from all around the world, so please English only in the public chat.

If you use shared accounts, and your account sharer decides to grief or break rules and cause you a ban. You are responsible for your account. We do not tolerate that excuse.

These rules can change at any time, please make sure you check them frequently to keep up.




_______________________________________________________________________________________

Spawn

 Once you have read the rules, feel free to admire  our lovely spawn. :D Then go up the steps, and through the portal to explore spawn city!  You can always return to spawn with  /spawn





________________________________________________________________________________________

Spawn City

 You will know you are in spawn city when you are greeted by stone brick streets and friendly littlel buildings.  Feel free to explore all you like! When you are ready to get started on your journey, please type  /warp mall



_________________________________________________________________________________________

The Mall


/warp mall will bring you to our lovely mall made up of player owned chest shops. To shop in a chest shop, read the sign over a chest.
 The signs will explain the quanity of the item being sold, the price, and type of item being sold. The price you can buy the item for is next to the letter B.  Simply right click the sign to buy the item.

 Some chest shops also allow you to sell items. If the price lists an S next to it, you may sell items to that shop by left clicking.





__________________________________________________________________________________________

Money

 You start with some money for shopping. You can type /money to see how much money you have. You can also earn more money with jobs.

 You can have up to 3 jobs on this server. These jobs allow you to earn money while playing normally. You do not have to go anywhere special to do your jobs, and you do not have to sell the materials you acquire. You are paid simply for the act of doing your job. For example, a Farmer earns money for harvesting crops.

 *To see what jobs are available, just type /jobs browse

 *For more information about any job, type  /jobs info [jobname]   example: /jobs info farmer

 *To join a job, type /jobs join [jobname]   example: /jobs join farmer

___________________________________________________________________________________________

Clans

 Famcraft uses the SimpleClans plugin to offer clans to our players. You can join a clan, play without a clan, or even start your own clan for 10,000.

 If you wish to start your own clan, once you have 10k, you can start a clan by typing:  /clan create [TAG] [Name]    example: /clan create MINE This is My Clan

 You can set a clan home with /clan home set

 Once you have created a clan, you can invite other members to your clan with /clan invite [playername]

____________________________________________________________________________________________

PVP
 
 PVP is OFF by default. You may toggle it on with /pvp so you can fight, but before pvp is allowed, all players must first agree to the terms of the fight. This means you and your opponent need to agree on what happens to your inventory when one player kills the other.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

 Homes

  You can set 5 homes on Famcraft, and your bed also sets a home for you. To set a home, type /sethome [name] example: /sethome base

 To return to a home, type /home [name]  example: /home base

* When naming your home, please choose a name, and not a number. Numbers can cause trouble for you in the future if you try to delete a home.

 To set your bed as a home, place it and right click on the bed. To return to a bed home, just type  /home bed

 If you need to delete a home at any point, please type /delhome [name] example /delhome base

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Precious Stones

 Once you do have a home, you might like to protect it with the precious stones plugin.

Precious stones is a anti-grief plugin we use, you simply place the following blocks to protect your build- Diamond block protects 41x513x41, Emerald blocks protects 13x21x13

 These blocks are most effective when placed in a central location of your home or property. You can purchase the stones or mine for them. To create a diamond block, simply place 9 diamonds on a crafting table. To create an emerald block, just place 9 emeralds on a crafting table.

 Famcraft is a NO GRIEFING server, but the extra protection is still very nice to have.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

LWC

We use LWC to lock our chest/furnaces/anvils/buttons/doors etc. Everything locks by itself once placed except for doors and buttons. To lock a door type "/lock" then punch it, to unlock it type "/unlock" and punch it. To add anyone to your protected chest, door, etc type "/cmodify (playername)"

______________________________________________________________________________________________

BACK & TPA

 * You can use /back to return to your place of death. You will be charged 1000 each time you use the /back command.

 * You can use /tpa to request to be teleported to another player. The player can accept or deny your request. You will be charged 100 each time you send a request.

*  You can use /tpahere to request to have another player teleport to you. The player can accept or deny your request. You will be charged 100 each time you send a request.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Star Gates & Wilderness

 If you are ready to find the wilderness and begin your adventure, please type /warp sg

 Typing /warp sg will bring you to our Star Gate room.

 The center Star Gate is our random gate. It will help you be able to explore the map by teleporting you to random locations in the wilderness. These locations are changed frequently, so there are always new areas to discover.

 To use the Star Gate:
 
 * right click on the sign to select a random location

 * press the button to activate the portal

 * step inside the portal to be teleported to the random location you selected

 Once you arrive at your random location, you will need to walk out at least 20 blocks from the gate before you will be able to break or build.

 Once you are at least 20 blocks from the portal, you may build anywhere you like, but please, always be respectful of the workspace of other players. Try not to build too close to your neighbors, it is a big, big world.



_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Questions? 

 If you have questions, and no staff is online to help you, please do not hesitate to ask the other players any questions you might have. Famcraft is a wonderful community made up of friendly players who are always eager to help.

 
Have fun and happy Famcrafting!!

Thank you for your plea Pinoyninjaboy. I believe you plan to behave.  If anything like this happens again it will be a perm ban with no plea. You have been unbanned- Welcome back to Famcraft.

« on: January 29, 2013, 08:03:51 PM »
 Thank you for your new and greatly improved plea.

 The first time you were banned for griefing, you said it was your sister. Now you say this time it was someone else. You are responsible for your own account no matter what. It sounds as if you understand this now,  and have taken extra steps to protect your password.

 We will welcome you back to Famcraft this one final time. If your account is found to be involved in any grief at all, no matter  how minor, and regardless of who was using your account at the time, you will be permanently banned.

 I am away from my pc right now. When I return, I will pardon your ban so you can return to Famcraft. Thank you for taking the time to plea. We look forward to seeing you on the server soon.

 Brunner- Repeatedly joining irc to push me to come see this plea after I have already asked you to stay off of IRC  tells me you may not be ready to follow the rules.

  I am sorry, but current players take priority over banned players. I have been dealing with other server related issues.

 We deal with ban pleas when we have spare time and are able to. At this point, I will review this thread tomorrow at the soonest- IF you stay off of irc.

 Brunner, do you remember why you were banned? And do you understand why that is not allowed on Famcraft? I would like to see a little more information in your plea, and then we will see what we can do.

Plea to be unbanned / Re: Natteboy's ban plea
« on: January 25, 2013, 03:56:04 PM »
  Natteboy, thank you for taking the time to plea.

When you were banned originally, you were flying as Wiggen99. As soon as you were banned, you logged back in as Natteboy, asking that Wiggen99 be unbanned. When asked, you denied being Wiggen99, and claimed to be Wiggen99's friend.

 That said, if you have uninstalled the fly mod, and intend to read the rules and follow them, then we would be happy to have you back at Famcraft so you can play with your friend. If you are caught flying again, or breaking any other rule, you will be permanently banned.

 Currently I am only unbanning your Natteboy account since it is the one you have used to post this plea.

 Welcome back to Famcraft.

Plea to be unbanned / Re: tempbanned and I have broken no rules.
« on: January 19, 2013, 11:21:53 PM »
 Tricky, Thank you for your plea and for sharing your feelings on this issue.

 We have a lot of faith in our staff team here at Famcraft. I am confident that Foghorn would have made the same call regardless of the player or underlying situation involved. 
 
 I am certain that Bk or Micah will take a look at this situation in the near future and weigh in with their thoughts.

 Until then. We will see you tomorrow night.

Plea to be unbanned / Re: banned
« on: January 19, 2013, 08:22:58 PM »
Hi MinecraftKid,

 I'm sorry, but you will have to wait for your 3 day ban to be over. We can't allow you to come back any sooner.

 When your ban is over, you will be able to come back and play, but you need to understand this will be your LAST CHANCE to prove that you can follow the rules and play nicely. If you break even ONE rule, you will be permanently banned, forever, with no chance to plea and return. 

 I have received many, many complaints from the other players and staff about your behavior. It is not fair to the other players who are following the rules to allow you to stay on the server if you can not behave.

 Some of the problems you will want to avoid when you return are:

*Spam - I want to make sure you understand what spam is. Spam is repeating ANYTHING too many times. Here are some examples of spam.

Example 1:

Who wants to join my clan?
Who wants to join my clan?
Who wants to join my clan?
Someone please join my clan.
Please.
Plz join my clan.

Example 2:

 I killed a zombie and he dropped a potato!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   <--- see all the !!!!! , those are spam

Example 3:

OOOooohhhhh nooooo! I died AGAIN!  <------ Spam, because of all the extra letters



*The next problem we have with you is BEGGING- constantly. Your begging is also spamming.

 Do NOT ask other players for MONEY, FOOD, WEAPONS, BUILDING SUPPLIES or ANYTHING else. Every single player on Famcraft WORKS for what they have. You know how to play this game. Do your jobs, earn some money for yourself. Plant a farm, harvest some food. STOP begging players and staff for things.

*The next problem- PVP.

 PVP must ALWAYS be agreed upon. Whacking someone with your sword is NOT the way to test and find out if PVP is on. You ASK and then you wait for a reply.  You make SURE the other person wants to PVP, and  then you still must both agree to the terms of the fight.

 Agreeing to the terms on PVP means making sure you both know what happens to your items  if the other player wins.


*Another issue-

DO NOT mine with other players, then jump ahead of them to take their finds, or to collect their XP.

DO NOT stand near someone at an XP farm and collect their XP

DO NOT collect other player's XP while hunting with them.

 Next problem...

 Be RESPECTFUL of other players,  of other players build space, and of other players time. If you are helping someone with a project, and they tell you NOT to break or place things past a certain point- listen to them, respect their wishes.

 While Famcraft is a public server, it is a PRIVILEGE to play here. We like to have players who respect the rules, and play nicely together. You have not been fitting that description lately.   

 About half of the staff wanted this ban to be permanent. This is your LAST chance. We are all prepared to bid you farewell if things do not work out this time.

 Please take the rest of your time away from the server to think about how you can improve your behavior. See you soon.
 

 If any other Staff has something to add, please feel free to reply.

Famcraft Tutorials, Links and Info / Famcraft Staff Selection Policy
« on: January 19, 2013, 07:58:30 PM »
Famcraft is changing the way we handle staff selection.

  From now on, no applications for staff will be accepted. Instead, staff will be automatically selected from among all eligible players.
 
 There is no need to send a pm, or ask about becoming staff in game. Asking repeatedly about becoming staff in game will make you ineligible for staff. We will not consider players who do not follow this rule.

"11 - Do not ask to become staff. This will cause you to lose your chance at becoming staff."

You can view all of the rules here: https://famcraft.com/index.php/topic,2.0.html

 
*** If you are chosen for staff, we will invite you to become a helper via private message on the forum at famcraft.com, or we will contact you in game. ***

To be considered for staff a player must meet the following criteria:

*must be polite and willing to help others

*must spend adequate time on the server to be able to help- We realize everyone has a real life too. We don't expect anyone to spend more time on the server than is reasonable for them. But as staff, we would hope to see you on the server at least a little while every day.

*must have been a member on the server for at least 2 weeks- You need to know the server and community for a couple of weeks before you will be considered for a helper position.

*must be in good standing with Famcraft - this means you will not be considered for staff if we are having to constantly correct you for spam/caps or other issues clearly covered in the rules

* You MUST have an account on famcraft.com to be considered for staff. It is impossible to be staff without access to the forum. It is free to create an account.   https://famcraft.com/index.php

 New staff members will be selected only when Famcraft needs additional helpers. We are not always in need of more staff.

 Donating to the server, while appreciated, does not have any effect on your chances of being asked to be a Helper.
 
Still interested? Read on. :)

 Before accepting an invitation to become staff, please consider the following information.

 Being staff is great! You get to be a part of the team that keeps Famcraft running smoothly. However- it is not all fun and games. Being staff can be very hard work at times. Helpers are expected to give tours whenever they are online. This means even if they are playing, building, or talking with friends, Helpers are expected to drop what they are doing and warp to /spawn to greet and tour the new player.

 You will only be asked to be a Helper- we will never invite a player to join staff at any other rank (This excludes returning retired staff).

  Every single member of staff starts out as a helper. From there, you may be able to move up in staff rank over time. Some helpers may never move up. They might always be Helpers. This does not mean these helpers are not wonderful, important staff members, it may just mean we need helpers more than we need to add additional higher ranking staff.

 Other staff members will be happy to assist you if you end up with multiple new players joining at one time. But the primary job of the Helpers is to tour new members- so we will expect you to tour first and foremost.

 Helpers have three main tools available to them.

*core inspect- to help you determine if a grief has taken place

*mute- in case someone is spamming or cursing on the server

*kick- if someone curses or spams, you can kick them as a warning. 

  A helper is expected to do all the proper paperwork in the staff section of the forum. This means if you mute or kick someone, you will need to make a post about it, explain why, and include a screenshot or irc copy/paste of the conversation.

 As you can see, being a Helper is a lot of work! Please consider all of this when you are deciding if you would like to accept an invitation to join the staff team.

 If you do choose to join us, but then you find you do not enjoy being a Helper, you are always free to retire. We will never hold it against you, and we will always be happy you gave it a shot. :)

Thank you to all Famcraft players and staff. You all make Famcraft great!
