Code of Conduct
  • Friendship is an important ingredient in our community, but so is the safety of our players. Inappropriate comments, harassment, grooming or emotional exploitation is strictly forbidden, no matter if it is in public or private messages on any of Safe Survival ’s platforms.
  • Failing to comply with these rules will result in a permanent ban.

Staff has final say on whether or not a rule was broken.

  • We take the time to think over the evidence and arguments from both sides.
  • Once a moderator declares that a player has broken a rule, the decision is final.
  • If a mod asks you to stop what you ’re doing, please stop. Failure to listen to a mod ’s request may result in punishment.
  • If you feel like you have been wrongfully banned, appeal in the server Discord.
ABOUT BANS​

Your account is your responsibility, if you allow others to play on it and they break a rule your account will be responsible, as we do not know who is playing it. Please keep this in mind.

Using Alts​

Bypassing bans with an alt is not allowed! If you are found to be playing on an alt while your main is banned the alt will be banned for the remaining time left on main accounts ban.

By using a sold alt account –you risk your main account being affiliated with other users of an alt. Alts that are sold online are often used by many different players, if they break a rule and get banned, and you use the same alt, you will be banned as well.

i.e. If a player is caught flying, they ’ll serve a 14 day temporary ban. If, after coming back, the player is found to be x-raying, they ’ll serve a permanent ban.

Or, if a player has been previously banned for a hacked client or x-ray and has been found to break a rule (or any punishable rule) such as griefing, being disrespectful, etc., you may be subject to a stacked ban.

Warnings may also stack. If you have been warned for the same thing multiple times, examples being griefing or disrespect, you may be subject to a ban instead of an additional warning.

PERMANENTLY-BANNED PLAYERS ’VALUABLES WILL BE CONFISCATED.

By infringing the rules to the extent of being punished with a permanent ban, you assume the risk of losing all your items.

If there is still not a substantial build, the claim will be expired.
