View source for TNTable Server Onboarding

Welcome to the TNTable Server, we are an invite-only server for friends and friends-of-friends. If you are reading this it means you have been invited, we are very excited to have you join our server! Please read through everything on this page, it is important to know before you join. There are also links to useful information that you should save and refer to later, such as custom advancements, crafting recipes, and plugins added to the server. 

== Server Rules ==
Here are some basic rules for the TNTable Server Community. Admins get final say in all matters. If there are any disputes the team will hear them and we will discuss. 

=== Play with respect ===
The server is quite laissez-faire, so long as all players practice respect and empathy. Respect does not just apply to other players, but to their play-styles, builds, and ideas. Respecting the decisions of the admins as well when intervention is required. Please treat others the way you wish to be treated. Players invest their time, resources, and creativity into the server because they enjoy it. Please be respectful of that.

=== PvP ===
Combat or harming others and destruction of other player's work is strongly discouraged. Any unwarranted harm or damage will have consequences. PvP in designated areas or when agreed upon by all parties is permitted and encouraged, however consent may be revoked at anytime, and that decision must be respected. Self-defense is an acceptable use of force so long as it is an appropriate level of response, not excessive.

=== Admin Authority ===
Admins maintain final say in all matters. Appeals to moderation decisions will always be heard and considered to a reasonable degree. Appeals will be heard by the whole moderation team and deliberated to ensure that no single moderator holds the decision alone.

=== FAFO ===
Be responsible and considerate. Your actions may have consequences, and sometimes they may not be favourable. Accept it and move on.

=== Spawn ===
Spawn and the area around it is prime land for development. We like to encourage shops and community buildings around spawn. Personal builds and bases are welcome, however there will likely be lots of development around you, limiting your space. It is advised that you venture out at least 200-300 blocks to build bases. A healthy, active spawn village is the goal.

Group projects are a great way to work together to create a beautiful spawn area, as well as appointing a person or planning committee.

== Getting Started ==
Here are some tips on getting started on the server, from your first time joining, to establishing a base.

=== First Join ===
When you first join, take a moment to get situated. You should receive a book with some information (admittedly the book may be a touch out of date). Feel free to begin exploring what is around.

==== Server Map ====
We have an online server map that could be handy for finding the perfect spot to build a base. Check it out here: https://smp-map.tntable.ca/. The map also shows player locations and any warps or public homes. It updates in near real-time.
