Hey, this thread is here to explain the Reputation System thoroughly. If you are left with questions, please do not hesitate to ask! What is Reputation? Reputation is a fully custom rewarding and punishing system. With Reputation, we can reward players for playing on the server and helping it to get more players. Gaining Reputation will give you perks along the way. But beware! You can lose these perks. Breaking the rules both gives you the punishment (e.g. ban or mute) and reduces your Reputation. How do you get Reputation? Getting Reputation is simple. 1. Join the server, and vote on one of the voting sites provided (/vote) 2. You are rewarded with 10 Reputation and 50 Fish (the Network Currency) NOTE! You can only earn 10 Reputation per day, but you may vote on more than one site to get more Fish. Fish can be used to buy different things on the network such as gadgets, trails and updates to minigame kits et cetera. Why do you need to vote, you ask? Besides the awesome perks you get for voting, it helps us getting new players, which means more friends for you to enjoy the game with. Voting is crucial, amongst donations, to keep the server running. Like in real life, Reputation is gained with hard work and gaining respect. What do I get with Reputation? We told that this is a rewarding system, so you earn rewards on certain levels of Reputation. Note that these can change at any time, and more will be added all the time. Some of these are post-EULA rank perks, since we cannot sell them for real money anymore. MILESTONE PERKS 30 Access to /echest, /speed, /thru, /jump on Creative 40 Access to the Builder kit on Survival (64x hardened clay, 32x glass blocks, 64x stone bricks, 16x mossy stone bricks, 8 grass blocks every three days) 50 Access to /gamemode, /xp, /enchant on Creative 50 Ability to use up to 6 homes on Survival 70 Access to the bat disguise on Creative 70 Access to /craft on Survival 80 Access to /tp on Creative 100 Access to the Enchanter kit on Survival (32x enchantment bottles, 10x lapis every week) 100 Ability to use up to 9 homes on Survival 125 Access to /ast (ArmorStandTools) on Creative 150 Ability to gain claim blocks faster (10% increase to default) on Survival 200 Ability to use up to 12 homes and /enderchest (/ec) on Survival 250 Access to brush commands permanently on Creative (sphere, cylinder, smooth, gravity) 300 Access to the Digger kit on Survival (10x iron ingot, 5x gold ingots, 2x redstone block 2x diamonds every week) 350 Ability to use up to 15 homes on Survival 400 Access to Generation commands (cyl, sphere, hcyl, hsphere, pyramid, hpyramid) 500 Access to Big Plots on Creative 500 Ability to use up to 18 homes on Survival 500 Ability to gain up to 100,000 blocks on Survival 600 Access to the Banker kit on Survival ($5,000 in-game currency every two weeks) 800 Access to Clipboard commands permanently on Creative (cut, copy, paste, flip, rotate, clearclipboard) 1000 Access to all safe (restricted) WorldEdit commands 1000 Ability to gain up to 150,000 blocks on Survival RECURRING PERKS 10 New plot on Creative, therefore every 10 Reputation earns you a plot (60 reputation = 6 plots in total, 450 reputation = 45 plots in total) with maximum of 100 plots Since every player starts with 5 plots, you won’t earn plots with the first 50 Reputation you earn. If you already had a rank before the EULA update (Reputation Update), you won't get new plots before you go past the amount of plots you already had. For example, Penguin had 75 plots and will get additional plots only after they surpass 750 Reputation. Therefore 760 Reputation will get them one additional plot.

Losing Reputation means that you will also lose all of your gained perks. Claimed plots won’t go away, but empty ones are reset on a weekly basis. Merging your plots together won’t protect you from this, either. Here are the ways you can lose Reputation: Punishment for breaking the rules reduces reputation Warning: 30 reputation Kick: 10 reputation Mute: 10 reputation per hour muted, min 10 reputation per mute - max 50 reputation per mute When player gets banned temporarily, they lose 50 reputation per day they get banned, but always the minimum of 50 For example, if they have 300 reputation, and they get banned for 3 days, they will lose 150 reputation, and are left with 150. Player’s Reputation gets automatically set to -1000 when they get banned permanently. If player’s ban was unjustifiable or too harsh in other forms, they can get their points back if the staff has decided so, otherwise when unbanned, the player’s Reputation will stay at -1000 until they start raising it Not voting reduces Reputation After one week, player starts to lose 5 Reputation per day until they reach zero or vote again, thus earning more Reputation Why are we punishing players for not voting? If you vote every day on the server, you can achieve the maximum amount of Reputation within 100 days of playing. After this period of time, if you are a well-behaving player, you wouldn’t have a fear of losing any Reputation. This means you basically no longer have to vote, and the server’s voting rates would drop drastically in the future. Remember, that voting is crucial for the server and we appreciate your effort doing so! Should you have any questions about Reputation, please do not hesitate to ask! We are more than happy to answer. Some changes may occur to Reputation. This feature is still under development.
