Welcome to the official Land of Gods website.

Server Guidelines (Rules of the server)

This is the new Land of Gods rule page. Firstly, we would like to thank you for taking the time to read this page. These rules are important to our server and help uphold our amazing community. Therefore, you play a vital role in maintaining a safe, respectable and fun server. Please note, you are responsible for your account. Therefore, all infringements that arise following the enforcement of the following rules, are applied to the associated account.

We (Land of Gods Staff) reserve the right to enforce these rules whichever way we see fit. The verdict of staff is final. Provided it is justified, staff reserve the right to punish for actions that aren’t explicitly stated in the rules.

General Rules

  2. Ban evading using alternate account will result in an IP-ban. Unban applications can be made on our discord!
  3. Use common sense. If it is wrong don’t do it.
    • It would be extremely difficult to list out all the possible rule violations.
    • Use your intuition to understand what is breaking the rules and/or pushing boundaries (e.g. instigating).
