Code of Conduct

Personal Safety and Privacy

• Participants may meet others from their town, city, or local area, but remaining anonymous is completely appropriate.
• Do not ask others for unwarranted personal information.
• All chat is recorded for safety.

Communication Expectations

• Be respectful to other participants.
• Do not swear, insult others, use hate speech, or use suggestive language.
• No spam, advertising, trolling, or excessive caps.
• Follow administrator instructions.

Gameplay Behaviour

• Never alter another player's build without permission.
• Do not steal or remove items from another player's space.
• Do not enter private worlds or plots unless invited.
• No griefing, including lava, mob spam, traps, or similar behaviour.
• No hacks, cheats, unapproved mods, or attempts to bypass protected areas or systems.

Respect and Inclusion

• Be kind and welcoming to others.
• No bullying, teasing, harassment, or unfair exclusion.
• Respect everyone's space, voice, and boundaries.
• Never impersonate other players or staff.

Server Conduct

• Do not tamper with server settings or protections.

• Do not attempt to evade rules or exploit loopholes.
• Only pre-approved accounts are allowed.

Moderation and Support

Level-Up! Connect uses moderation tools to help maintain a safe environment. Chat is logged for safety, and server plugins help flag or limit inappropriate language, spam, advertising, hate speech, and other conduct that may breach the Code of Conduct.

Players can report concerns in-game by typing /ticket create followed by a short description of what happened. Support staff may be online at other times, but administrators typically review and respond to tickets on weekdays between 4:00pm and 6:00pm AEST/Victoria time.

Breaches and Consequences

Level-Up! uses a three-strike system. Any breach of this Code of Conduct may result in a strike. Serious violations may result in administrators progressing directly to access restrictions or removal, at the discretion of Level-Up! staff.

• First breach: warning.
• Second breach: temporary ban or access restriction.
• Third breach: permanent removal from the server or world.
