Rules

SA Crafters does not like having to issue punishments to players, however, we will take a firm stance in keeping the server a quality playing environment.

Please make sure you read our server rules, The responsibility falls on the player to familiarize themselves with the rules set out below.

Please note that chat rules apply to public chat, private in-game chat, town chat, factions chat, party chat, the SA Crafters text and voice Discord channels, the playmc.co.za website, or any other chat system hosted by SA Crafters.

Account Security

Make sure your account is secure.

  1. User account sharing is not allowed. You are responsible for the security of your account. If another player gains access to your account, you will be responsible for their actions on the server. It is better to keep your account details to yourself. Sharing your account is a high risk!

  2. Alternative accounts are not allowed. You may not play from more than one account at the same time or use multiple accounts to gain extra rewards or enter into competitions or events.

  3. Using third-party MC clients is always a risk. Make sure the client you are using is known and trusted! There are many clients out there that steal your username and password. Using the official Minecraft launcher from Mojang is always the best option.
