Rules and standards

The Genesis Order promises a cleaner atmosphere. These standards keep it that way.

A strong rules page is not legal fluff. It tells players what kind of place The Genesis Order is trying to be, what will not be tolerated, and why the community feels different from a random server with no real standards.

Rule set

Standards that keep the world playable and the community healthy

These rules are direct enough to matter, but still written like humans are expected to read them instead of skipping a wall of legal noise.

Respect other players and their time

Do not harass, bully, or deliberately make the server worse for other people. Every build, grind, and project took real time to make.

No griefing, theft, or sabotage

Do not destroy, alter, raid, or take from anything that is not yours. If there is any doubt, ask before touching it.

No cheats, exploits, or unfair advantages

Hacked clients, dupes, x-ray, automation abuse, or anything that breaks fair play undercuts the entire point of the shared world.

Keep chat and voice clean enough to stay welcoming

Do not spam, flood, scream over people, or drag the community into the kind of chaos that makes faith-friendly servers lose their tone.

Build with shared-world awareness

Lag-heavy machines, disruptive traps, or systems that hurt server performance should not be used carelessly just because they are possible.

Staff decisions protect the tone and stability of the server

If staff step in, it is to keep The Genesis Order fair, stable, and worth staying in. Use Discord if you need clarity or want to appeal a decision.

Moderation philosophy

The goal is order, not chaos.

Good moderation makes a server feel safer and more predictable, not more hostile. The Genesis Order should feel steady, fair, and welcoming because the standards are applied clearly and consistently.

  • Use rules to protect the experience, not to intimidate players.
  • Keep enforcement consistent so the community trusts what the staff says.
  • Point people to Discord for questions, appeals, or clarifications.
Step 1

Warn and clarify when possible

Not every issue needs instant escalation. Clear communication often fixes smaller problems before they grow.

Step 2

Escalate when behavior continues

If a player ignores direction or keeps harming the server, staff should step in firmly to protect everyone else.

Step 3

Use Discord for follow-up

Appeals, context, and private questions are easier to handle well when there is a clean support channel outside the game.

Next layer

Rules set the standard. FAQ handles the follow-up questions.

A polished server site separates standards from common join questions so neither page has to do too much at once.
