About Kingdoms of Resdayn:

Kingdoms of Resdayn opened its doors on October 24th, 2011 with the simple premise of being a friendly community survival server with a “Morrowind-ish” theme. Over two years later, we’re still around, and better than ever. We’ve opened up three worlds with Multiworld support, a large world of 25,000 blocks radius, a medium world of 10,000, and a small Amplified world of 5,000 which you can switch between at will. We’ve expanded our competitions, including building competitions, writing competitions and treasure hunts. Our server is open build, you can join a town or city, buy and sell buildings, or go out into the wilderness and build your own town or just build whatever you want. We put few restrictions on what you can do, we only ask that you respect our rules and fellow players. Go out and have fun, that’s what we’re here for. Once you’ve been whitelisted, you’re considered a full “Regular” player, with all the same permissions and opportunities as everyone else, and you get access to a full range of commands (including ten /sethomes that you get automatically).

We have no build standards, all builders are welcome regardless of quality. We have no donation ranks, you will never feel compelled to give us money for commands and permissions that you should have already anyway, this isn’t a pay-to-win server and this isn’t a pay-to-play server either, this is a free server in the truest sense of the term, you need not pay a dime and you can play here for years. We are not a PvP server, we do not condone the murder of our players, but we offer PvP venues such as a PvP Arena and a CTF Arena where you can engage in friendly competition. We are not an RPG server, though we are heavily influenced by Morrowind from the Elder Scrolls series, all of our RPG factions are completely optional and you can choose to ignore them in their entirety if you so desire. What we are is a friendly community survival server, where players know they can trust the staff to respect their property and their rights, and where the players are always happy to help a new player just getting started. If you’re new to Minecraft, our staff and our players are happy to help out, and we have community farms and mines to make the learning process easier for you. We’re a patient bunch, so if you have questions getting started, you should always feel welcome to voice them.

I’ve explained what Kingdoms of Resdayn is, and what it is not, now if you’ll allow me, I’ll provide you with the details of what makes our server unique.

Players are encouraged, but not forced, to participate in one of our numerous community activities, including build competitions, treasure hunts, and writing competitions. Build Competitions happen every month or so, and players are challenged to build a particular type of building using their own supplies. The winners of these competitions get free indie games on Steam and in-game rewards (such as in-game currency, diamonds and special blocks). As for our treasure hunts, these are held off and on and involve players solving riddles to locate the treasure, usually in-game rewards.

Another event we have is called "Town Build Challenges" where the goal is to build a town at a specified location that meets the primary objectives and as many secondary objectives as the player can manage. Once complete, the player (or team of players) is rewarded for every completed objective of building the town, and can choose to spend reward BP (Bonus Points) on additional stuff like extra diamonds or free games on Steam. Some of these town builds are quite challenging, can you build a town of at least six buildings on an isolated desert island? What about building a town on an inhospitable snowy plain? These are meant to be challenging, fun, and rewarding all together.

Ah, and one more point I should mention. Players can also engage in one of our several server-wide newspapers, or go off and start one of their own. Visitors to our capital of Narsis will find news stands in a handful of districts carrying newspapers such as “The Daily Guar”, “The Narsis Times” and “The Hlaalu Gazette” that cover player activities, server news, and the latest competitions. Finally, the comfort of a virtual newspaper in the palm of your virtual hand!

As for our server staff, we currently employ eight admins, all between the ages of 23 and 56 years old, and all sworn to uphold the Admin Code of Conduct. Our staff will always respect players, taking charge when needed to solve a dispute, or providing a helpful hand when requested. They won’t prank your builds, or kill you for fun, so long as you obey the rules, they’ll leave you perfectly alone. We hire no one under the age of 21, and we keep no one of immature character on our staff, so you can be sure that our admins are trustworthy. If you have a complaint against one of our staff, you should get in contact with me personally or post it on our forums.

Official Server Rules:
No Griefing - Griefing, or the act of destroying other people's creations, is absolutely prohibited on this server. If you accidently remove a few blocks, and repair the damages, you'll probably be fine. But for the most part, you must respect other people's property, and wanton destruction can and will earn you a permanent ban.

No Breaking and Entering - Breaking and entering is the act of bypassing locked or private doors by destroying the blocks around the doors to gain entry to the room or structure. This is also prohibited, you must respect the privacy of other players and leave their personal quarters alone.

No Stealing - Quite often people will leave their personal chests unlocked, especially within their own homes. This does not mean you can waltz in and take what you want. The general rule with chests is, if they're not marked as a public chest, or if they're near another player's building area, leave them alone. Theft of personal possessions is considered a serious offence on this server, and as always you should respect other player's property.

No Item Duplication - Often there are methods by which a player can 'cheat' and duplicate items through glitches in Minecraft. Rest assured, our staff is trained to be able to spot such duplication machines, and if you're caught with one it will result in a warning or ban.

No Xraying - Xraying involves using client software or texture packs to detect desirable ores in the ground without actually mining at random. This too is considered cheating, and we do have xray-detection software installed. If you're caught xraying it could result in a warning or ban.

No Trash-Talking/Rude Behavior - Chat spamming, calling other player's rude names, obscene language and behavior, homophobia, misogyny, racism, intolerance of other's religious views (or lack thereof) are all prohibited in public chat. You may, of course, say what you want in a private (or party) chat with mutual parties, but that does not mean you can harass people privately at will. If anyone in the private chat complains of rude behavior, you must stop immediately or an admin will get involved and you may be muted.

No Player-Killing - Open world PvP is not allowed on this server. This doesn't mean you can't engage in a duel, or play in PvP Arenas. As long as PvP is between mutually-agreeing parties, it's fine. Randomly murdering other players, however, will not be tolerated.

In general, with all of these rules, we follow a three-strike policy. The first time you break a rule, you'll receive a warning (except in severe cases where we may proceed with a ban). The second time you'll be given a temporary ban of between 24 and 72 hours. The third time results in a permanent ban. Most of the time we're willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and a fair amount of leeway with minor offenses, so there's no need to panic. Just remember to learn, and avoid repeating offenses.
