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.
FAQ
Here's some info that isn't strictly a rule, but does fall under managing the server.
Builds & Server Lag Management
The server should be pretty capable and we do not preemptively impose limitations on builds or farms beyond what the game limits are. We will start investigating if we do start experiencing server lag and we may seek a remedy for the culprit farm or build. The goal is to come to a resolution together.
Is Elytra allowed?
Yes, it is, we even have a datapack that allows you to create armoured elytra! Check it out below.
Can I fight bosses, even one-time ones?
Boss fights are encouraged, though if you are going to be fighting a boss that can damage areas please ensure you have enough space to accommodate it. Leave plenty of room between your fight and the nearest built-up area. Also, be sure that you are capable of killing it. If you cannot please alert other players and the admins. Be warned that if we step in there will be some light teasing.
One-time boss fights are fair-game. This map has been up for over a year as of October 2025. If we want to fight it again the admin team can respawn it.
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.
Establishing a base
Find your spot to establish a base, be sure to check that you have enough clearance from other players so you, and they, have room to grow. From here it is all up to you, so enjoy and have fun. Introduce yourself on the server to others, we are all friendly and love meeting new people.
Creative Server
We also have a creative server, this is great for quickly jumping back and forth in to test build ideas, block combinations and anything you desire really. You can even use it to just build if you'd like. Though, most of the current player base uses it as a testing bed for ideas and builds at the moment.
Here's some commands to get you started: /server creative will take you to the creative server, and /server smp will take you to the survival server.
Common Commands
We have a few commands that are quite useful for everyday playing, read more in depth about all the commands available at the page linked below.
