+   1. Doing PVP in the grace period is very frowned upon and rude
+1. Bases must be within 2500 blocks of spawn (0,75,0) and in the Overworld (non base stuff can be anywhere)

+1. No hacked/utility/minecraft enhancement clients
+1. No ESP (except for things already included in or made in the modpack)
