Sangreal Code of Conduct v1.0
1 - No Physical Griefing or Theft
This restriction does not apply to Resource World, or external worlds.
Looting from an unlocked chest in the RP World is still considered Theft.
Placing AFK Players into situations where they can be abused and/or killed is considered a minor form of griefing. If said AFK Player reports it, punishment will be dispensed accordingly.
2 - No Unapproved Clientside Modpacks or X-Ray Texturepacks.
There are no exceptions to this rule aside from Staff where applicable.
Utilization of X-Ray texture packs are disallowed, and if found will result in immediate temporary ban and/or confiscation of items.

5 - No Redstone Clocks, Lag-generation Devices, or AFK Machines.
Redstone farms are accepted, given that they are button or lever operated and do not function on a timer system.
Advanced circuits other than door systems that require a simplistic And/Or lock, require approval by technical staff.
Advanced circuitry is usually permitted for builds and events when requested.
Purposeful Lag-generation devices will result in temporary ban, and are considered a breach of the CoC Policy #1
AFK Machines (Circular Waterfall) are considered abuse of the Ontime mechanic and will result in temporary ban.
6 - No Abusive and/or overtly Disrespectful attitudes and behaviours towards Players and Staff.
The community of Realm of Solum is intended to be friendly and a welcoming RP environment. If there is an issue with a player, take it up with Staff. If there is an issue with Staff, take it up with a Management member.
If excessive trolling is complained about, and it is believed to be severe enough by Staff, a warning will be given. If trolling of such level continues, it will result in a ban.
Shit-talking and/or harassment is forbidden. This includes, and is not limited to, On-Server, On-Forums, and Discord. Discord logs will be taken with a grain of salt, however, excessive shit-talking in a situation where logs are permitted may or may not be used in Player Watchlists and Punishments where applicable.
7 - Do not reply to Whitelist applications, Warnings, and Bans unless you possess information that is warranted.
Whitelisting posts are restricted to information pertaining to an individual’s previous track-record, and it would be preferred that such is sent to Staff through Discord or Forum conversation.
Bans or Warnings may be posted on if your information is relevant. Meme’ing, and/or Shit-talking will result in a warning being given out.
Bans and Warnings may be publically refuted, and Staff are required to give information pertaining to the ban, and may be required to release logs given the information is not sensitive to more than the guilty party.
8 - No requesting Operator permissions, Promotions, Teleportation, or spawned Blocks.
Exceptions to the Teleportation rule is on a circumstance by circumstance basis, and will be decided by the Staff member who possesses the teleport override commands.
Requesting Operator and/or Promotions without following the appropriate method of applying for Staff will result in your accounts being dewhitelisted.
Requesting spawned blocks and items will result in denial.
9 - No inappropriate skins, post-modern (Sci-Fi), nude, or sexually implicative skins.
Immersion is key. Keep your skin appropriate to the Roleplay standards for increased immersion.
Skins taken from YouTubers or cloned from popular media such as direct rips from Video Games, Movies, and the like will be required to change.
Skin Violations, including Lore- will be issued a single warning. Failure to comply with Staff directive after the first warning, will result in a dewhitelist.
10 - No Advertising of other Servers.
Posting IP’s of servers in the Forums and Global Chat will result in an issued warning. Continuing to do so after said warning, will result in a ban.
If you feel that someone is spamming and/or advertising IP addresses for servers in Personal Message, report it to Staff.
Referring someone to another server, while using Server-hosted media is considered advertising. This does not apply to referring another server via Discord. Freedom of speech and choice will be respected.
11 - Keep the use of foul language to a case-by-case minimum.
The playerbase recognizes modified PG-16 Restrictions. Constant and needless use of words such as “Fuck” will result in a warning. Roleplay usage is permitted.
Use of foul language to the excess in Discord, will result in a mute or temporary ban after the first verbal warning has been given.
Use of foul language In-Character does not apply to Out-Of-Character restrictions, unless it is in a sexual nature. Use where applicable and within reason is acceptable. Overbearing use will be punished accordingly.
12 - Refrain from using characters based off television characters, as well as video-games, and other media.
While creativity is encouraged, and the use of generic starting concepts is okay, it is frowned upon to utilize a character created by someone else, in a television or other fanbase.
Direct character rips, if discovered, will be punished accordingly.
13 - Metagaming, and Powergaming are not tolerated.
Metagaming will be dealt with on a case-by-case manner. All evidence of Metagaming reported will be checked through logs, as well as questioning of the individuals. Being accused of Metagaming does not warrant punishment, as we follow an “Innocent until Proven Guilty” policy. However- If metagaming does occur and is found out by Staff, there will be punishments for such actions.
Powergaming will be dealt with, by Administration and Loremaster/Co-Loremaster if it needs to be escalated beyond a Moderator. If convicted, it will be one warning. If convicted again, you will be de-whitelisted.
If you are accused of Metagaming or Powergaming, and are indeed guilty- it is best if you confront the Staff members involved and admit that you did so. In this case, you will be treated much lighter than if logs had to be scourged and evidence collected.
14 - ERP (Erotic Roleplay) or PG-18 rated content is restricted.
Failure to follow the Regulations on ERP, or the Regulations on Violence and Torture, which are linked- will result in temporary ban at minimum, and permanent depending on the scale of your violation.
15 - Follow Server Lore guidelines.
Server Lore is the guiding hand by which fun is both aided and hampered. In order to create the most immersive and fun environment for all, one must always adhere to Server lore standards.
Failure to do so will result in being tagged for “Lore Violation”. If an individual exceeds more than two “Lore Violations” they will be de-whitelisted.
If you have a concept, and follow the process of approval in order to get it either approved or denied by the Lore Master and Lore Team, this is acceptable. Only the use of non-approved objects, characters, character traits, or storylines will be punished.
16 - Ports, Spawn-points, Homes, may not be utilized to escape Roleplay.
Using any feature of the server that allows teleportation, in order to escape Roleplay, is not permitted.
Using any form of transport to avoid Combat RP, is not permitted. If you are in the middle of Combat RP, you are disallowed to OOCly flee. If you do so, you will be punished accordingly.
17 - New Characters may not have had interactions with your previous characters.
In order to keep metagaming of previous character events to a minimum, this rule exists with such a restriction.
Characters of the same bloodline are permitted, however they may not adhere to the same career, or same concept as the previous character of that bloodline.
18 - All Offline RP is considered to be Non-Canon
Roleplay that happens on private Discord messages or servers is impossible to track. Therefore, it is non-canon.
Roleplay that happens on any medium other than the verifiable Forums, Server Discord or Server, are considered non-canon.
Roleplay that occurs within Private forum conversations, is considered to be canon. As well as the Roleplay sections of the forums. If you would like to ever have forum RP be verified through private conversation, add a Staff member.
19 - Use of languages other than Americanized or British English is forbidden.
This server’s primary language is English. If English is not your primary language, refrain from RP with your primary language.
If English is your Secondary or Tertiary language, we understand that it may be challenging for you to understand at times.
This also forbids the use of Latin, or made-up languages within the server.
If you would like your own Roleplay language channel, apply for it via the appropriate channels.
