Staff Vetos

2026-07-30T23:38:03Z

End: /* Agriculture */

'''Purpose'''

For the benefit of the server, the Staff Team retains a reserve power to override any Government decision when deemed necessary.

====== '''Process of Override''' ======
These decisions are made collectively, involving two or more members of Server Leadership (Manager+).

Where practicable, the override will be communicated through the President prior to implementation.

====== '''Finality of Decisions''' ======
Staff overrides are final and cannot be overturned by Government or Judiciary.

The Judiciary, in interpreting law, must have regard to Staff intent as a primary consideration. Where a law is silent or ambiguous, courts shall interpret it in a manner consistent with Staff intent.

Server Leadership will collaborate with the President to identify and pursue alternative options that align with both server needs and roleplay integrity, with respect to vetoed legislation or other impacted executive functions.

====== '''Advisory Role''' ======
Server Leadership may '''advise the President upon request''' or offer input proactively on matters related to:

* Server performance
* Staff workload
* Feasibility of implementation

====== '''Transparency and Accountability''' ======
A public record of Staff interventions will be maintained in good faith below, serving as:

* A tool for lawmakers to anticipate and avoid future conflict with staff decisions
* A reference for Government to understand the scope and rationale of staff actions

'''This is not an exhaustive list, but encompasses most major decisions made over the server's history.'''
== Height Limits ==

Description: The following limits apply, and cannot be surpassed:

* Towns: 40 blocks.
* Skyscrapers: 200 blocks.
* Else: 60 blocks.

Reason:

* The Government have no active interest in maintaining the height limit and are therefore likely to approve all requests to exceed the height limit.
* Anything beyond 40 blocks belongs in a city - anything larger than 40 blocks is taller than the main superstructure of the capitol building.
* We are in the business of building towns, not cities.
* Towns are encouraged to build structures specific to their town industry, and towns more generally, not something to rival the city.
* For server aesthetic.

== Polygon Region Ban ==

Description: The government cannot ban polygon regions.

Reason:

* Diagonal plots add depth and perspective to the city.
* Some players enjoy working on angles.
* There are many diagonal roads in the city.

== Former Government Position Roles ==

Description: The server won’t maintain Former <code><role></code> permission groups and tags.

Reason:

* Maintaining one role such as President means that we have to do it for other roles such as Vice President, Justice, and Secretary.
* These roles will accumulate over time and will override meaningful jobs with meaningless ones.

== Capital Relocation ==

Description: The Capital of Redmont will remain in the city that Spawn resides.

Reason:

* Fairness among towns.
* Towns are not an appropriate capital ''city''.

Link: {{DCForums|Link=/threads/executive-order-07-22-temporary-capital-relocation.11714|Forums=Capitol Relocation}}
== Towns ==

Description: There shall be no more than three towns, or districts exercising governing powers substantially similar to those of a town.

Towns are strictly limited to the boundaries allocated to them and may not reclaim, annex, or otherwise expand into major bodies of water beyond the shoreline as it existed in February 2026.

Limited to councils (or equivalent governing bodies) of no more than five (5) members, inclusive of the Mayor and Deputy Mayor.

Reason:
* There is an increased focus on a dual city competition rather than local government integration.
* Existing towns are already struggling to define a clear purpose beyond maintaining established infrastructure.

== Agriculture ==
The agricultural area of Redmont, located on the central isle, exists to provide accessible farming opportunities for players, particularly new players. Any local government established with jurisdiction over this area, with the exception of the fishing town, must ensure that agricultural activity remains the primary purpose of the area.

Farmland Plots. Farm plots must remain leasehold and may not be converted to freehold or removed. Large farmland plots may be subdivided with the approval of the appropriate Federal authority. This requirement exists to facilitate plot rotation and ensure that farmland remains available to those who need it. Existing freehold plots are grandfathered.

Ranch Plots. Ranch plots may remain freehold, but must not otherwise be amended or removed.

All activity, other than agriculture, within the agricultural area must remain incidental to its agricultural purpose. Commercialisation must be limited to activities that directly support or compliment the agricultural community and must not undermine the area’s primary agricultural function.

== Staff Veto while in Government ==

Description: A staff member's ability to veto is unaffected by political factors.

Reason: Extended Response - see link.

Link: {{DCForums|Link=threads/protect-our-democracy-amendment.12924/|Forums=Owner Veto while in Government}}

== Term Limits ==

Description: Either limiting an elected office by number of terms, or by allowing the presidency consecutive terms.

Reason:

* Two terms of up to 8 consecutive months (two 4-month terms) under one leader can create stagnation on the server environment.
* History shows that second and third terms often lack the energy and innovation of first terms, even when non-consecutive.
* Regular leadership change ensures fresh ideas and a dynamic government, in particular, it enhances opportunities for new players.
* Limiting elected offices may discourage long-term participation in the server.
* Players who are invested in government might disengage if barred from running ever again, reducing experienced contributions to the community.

== Server Infrastructure ==

Description: The following infrastructure is staff-owned and managed. It requires approval for alteration:

* Spawn / Tutorial
* Staff Areas (i.e. Resource Room, Staff Museum)
* Donator Infrastructure: Reveille Yacht Club, Reveille Country Club, and the Cruise Ship Supporter Hub
* Owner Residences
* 'boeing747'

Reason:

* Spawn and the tutorial are significant places in the server and act as a player’s first impression of the map and the server. This does not detract from the DCT’s ability to decorate Spawn seasonally, however it will require approval from a member of Server Leadership.
* Donator areas involve the expenditure of IRL funds and therefore should be overseen by Server Leadership to ensure that any amendments to the area is consistent with what the server has committed to donators.

Link: Nil.
== City Design ==

Description: That the spokes of the City’s road/path network remain.

Reason: To preserve the city’s design so that we don’t end up with a Manhattan grid-like, characterless mosh pit. Reveille is designed to be centred in a spoke formation with large thoroughfares running diagonally from the epicentre that is Spawn. This forms the ‘Triangle of Government’ which sees the three branches of government at each end of the triangle to symbolize the separation of powers.

== Corporate Wild Claims ==

Description: Corporations cannot own wild claims.

Link: [https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/corporate-wap-act.3936/ Corporate WAP Act]

== Size and Amount of Wild Claims ==
Description: You may claim up to 4,096 blocks in the Wilderness, only as part of a single region.

Link: [[Wilderness Claiming]]

== Government Jurisdiction Limits ==

Description: Wilderness worlds (End, Nether, Wild, Everwild, Outback) are all lawless, international lands outside the scope of government regulation and control. The Government may still regulate import/export controls, where plugins allow.

Caveat: Redmont Government is requested to maintain claim evictions as an exception, which may be established by law or executive policy.

Reason:

* Attempts to legislate player behaviour in the Wilderness have often blurred this intended purpose as a lawless, international land.
* Players may act freely within it, but must also accept the heightened risks that accompany that freedom.

== Homeland Security Murder Plugin ==
Description: The Homeland Security plugin is considered presumptively correct as evidence, until proven otherwise by evidence other than witness testimony alone.
Reason:

* Without a trust in the murder plugin, it would become nearly impossible to prosecute murders.
* Without murder prosecution, players become frustrated that they are unable to press charges.

== Restricted Blocks ==
Description: The following guidance is provided for restricted blocks:

* '''Light Block. Use a'''llowed when used for aesthetic effect at discretion of DCT Secretary.
* Barrier Block. Use is limited to Government infrastructure.

== Presidency ==
The President must consult and seek approval from server leadership on appointing an acting or substantive Dept. Construction Secretary. The role comes with significant worldedit power, and is approval is rarely, if ever, denied by leadership.

== Pruning Tax ==
Pruning tax is the reclaiming of money from the accounts of inactive players.

Pruning tax is subject to the following restrictions:

(a) a player's funds must not be pruned until they have been inactive for at least three months;

(b) upon rejoining, the player must be eligible to recover no less than 90% of the funds that were pruned;

(c) players whose funds have been pruned must be clearly informed that the prune has occurred and provided with instructions on how to recover their eligible funds; and

(d) a player's funds must not be pruned where they have existing unclaimed pruned funds awaiting recovery, as doing so would overwrite the previous record and prevent recovery of those earlier funds.

== Willow District ==
Willow Farming District is the property of the Federal Government. It may be run by a Federal Department or governed by a board of no more than three (3) members, comprised of ex officio members drawn from civil service positions relevant to the administration of the district.

Willow’s primary purpose is to operate as a farming district, providing accessible agricultural plots for players, particularly new players. To ensure plot rotation and continued accessibility, all plots within Willow located west of the highway must remain rental-only and shall not be sold or converted to freehold.

Willow '''is not intended to function as a commercial centre.''' Commercialisation within the district must be kept to a minimum and remain incidental to its agricultural purpose.

Reason:

* Willow has undergone several structural changes throughout its existence, most commonly alternating between a designated farming district and a highly commercialised area. However, demand for farmland remains consistently significant, and Willow is presently the only location where players can easily and affordably access farming plots.

* Previous attempts to commercialise Willow have resulted in underutilised commercial land within what is fundamentally an agricultural centre. These outcomes demonstrate that Willow functions most effectively when its primary focus remains agricultural, with commercial activity kept strictly incidental.

* In-game roles are only abbreviated in limited circumstances. Such a role would require abbreviation to allow for a viable visible tag combination.
* The role would mask other important roles that serve regular in game functions. i.e. Deputy Secretary of State might mask Sergeant or Doctor.
* There are 9 secretaries and each department usually has 2+ Deputies. This would lead to most people online having a secretary role of some sort which is masking other roles.

* Spawn and the tutorial are significant places in the server and act as a player’s first impression of the map and the server. This does not detract from the DCT’s ability to decorate Spawn seasonally, however it will require approval from a member of Server Leadership.
* Donator areas involve the expenditure of IRL funds and therefore should be overseen by Server Leadership to ensure that any amendments to the area is consistent with what the server has committed to donators.

Link: Nil.
== City Design ==

Description: That the spokes of the City’s road/path network remain.

Reason: To preserve the city’s design so that we don’t end up with a Manhattan grid-like, characterless mosh pit. Reveille is designed to be centred in a spoke formation with large thoroughfares running diagonally from the epicentre that is Spawn. This forms the ‘Triangle of Government’ which sees the three branches of government at each end of the triangle to symbolize the separation of powers.

== Corporate Wild Claims ==

Description: Corporations cannot own wild claims.

Link: [https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/corporate-wap-act.3936/ Corporate WAP Act]

== Size and Amount of Wild Claims ==
Description: You may claim up to 4,096 blocks in the Wilderness, only as part of a single region.

Link: [[Wilderness Claiming]]

== Government Jurisdiction Limits ==

Description: Wilderness worlds (End, Nether, Wild, Everwild, Outback) are all lawless, international lands outside the scope of government regulation and control. The Government may still regulate import/export controls, where plugins allow.

Caveat: Redmont Government is requested to maintain claim evictions as an exception, which may be established by law or executive policy.

Reason:

* Attempts to legislate player behaviour in the Wilderness have often blurred this intended purpose as a lawless, international land.
* Players may act freely within it, but must also accept the heightened risks that accompany that freedom.

== Homeland Security Murder Plugin ==
Description: The Homeland Security plugin is considered presumptively correct as evidence, until proven otherwise by evidence other than witness testimony alone.
Reason:

* Without a trust in the murder plugin, it would become nearly impossible to prosecute murders.
* Without murder prosecution, players become frustrated that they are unable to press charges.

== Restricted Blocks ==
Description: The following guidance is provided for restricted blocks:

* '''Light Block. Use a'''llowed when used for aesthetic effect at discretion of DCT Secretary.
* Barrier Block. Use is limited to Government infrastructure.

== Presidency ==
The President must consult and seek approval from server leadership on appointing an acting or substantive Dept. Construction Secretary. The role comes with significant worldedit power, and is approval is rarely, if ever, denied by leadership.

== Pruning Tax ==
Pruning tax is the reclaiming of money from the accounts of inactive players.

Pruning tax is subject to the following restrictions:

(a) a player's funds must not be pruned until they have been inactive for at least three months;

(b) upon rejoining, the player must be eligible to recover no less than 90% of the funds that were pruned;

(c) players whose funds have been pruned must be clearly informed that the prune has occurred and provided with instructions on how to recover their eligible funds; and

(d) a player's funds must not be pruned where they have existing unclaimed pruned funds awaiting recovery, as doing so would overwrite the previous record and prevent recovery of those earlier funds.

{{EditorSidebar}}
Welcome to editing the wiki! Whether you are an employee of the [[Department of Education]] or a volunteer hoping to help out, we're excited to have you here as we work together to maintain the official DemocracyCraft wiki.

== Getting started ==
The wiki is always in need of changes! As an editor, we want to provide you with the tools to make corrections and new pages to provide information for wiki visitors!

=== Logging in ===
[[File:EditorsGuideLogin.png|thumb|350px]]
Logging in to the wiki is extremely important for saving your work!

Clicking the bottom left person-shaped icon will open the box for pressing the log in button, which will connect to your {{DCForums|forums}}<nowiki /> account.

{{Note|type=reminder|text= It's important to remember that the login for the wiki expires quickly!
<br />If you leave your computer with an editing page open for a while, be sure to copy your changes so you don't lose them!}}

=== Basics ===
Starting editing the wiki is simple! When you are on a page, the top right will have a section for making changes.

[[File:EditorsGuideTopRight.png|350px]]

* View history
** View the edit history of that specific page, including who edited it, and previews of the previous versions.
* Edit
** This opens the visual editor, which is a simple way to make quick changes to the text without diving too deep.
* Edit source
** Sometimes shown as just open and closed brackets (as shown in the photo) will open the source editor, with a side preview page. This provides more source-code based editing abilities that some editors may find easier to use.
* Discussion/Talk
** Not used very often here, as we use the DOE Discord to communicate. It opens a page where editors can discuss on a message-board type page for specific pages.

=== Basic styling ===

* Headers
** You can make headers using the editors tools, or using the equals sign. Surrounding text with two or more equals signs creates headers. Ex: <code>==Text==</code>
** For sub-headers, general practice is adding one more equals sign per depth, such as: <code>===Text===</code>===
* Links
** Linking within the wiki is extremely simple: <code><nowiki>[[WikiPage]]</nowiki></code>. You can also change what the wiki page shows using |, such as: <code><nowiki>[[WikiPage|ShownName]]</nowiki></code>.
** Linking outside the wiki is extremely similar, instead using single brackets and a space instead of a | for naming it. It follows this format: <code><nowiki>[https://example.org/ Link label]</nowiki></code>.
* Images
** Uploading files is extremely simple - on the sidebar, there is a Upload file button under the Navigation category. Clicking it will lead you to a page to upload your image, create a name, and a description. When you upload your files, you should follow this general naming scheme:
*** Logos: the company name, such as <code>The Reveille Times.png</code>
*** Seals: the office name, such as <code>Department of Education.png</code>
*** Players: their name and format, such as: <code>Kaiserin standing.png</code> or <code>Kaiserin face.png</code>
*** For other purposes, ask for help or take your best judgement.
** To embed your images within a page, you can use this format: <code><nowiki>[[File:Image.png]]</nowiki></code>
** You can resize the image by adding a | and writing a number suffixed by px (pixels), such as: <code><nowiki>[[File:Image.png|350px]]</nowiki></code>
** Finally, you can embed the image as a "thumbnail" - floating and to the right, such as the first image on this page, by appending |thumb to the format, such as: <code><nowiki>[[File:Image.png|thumb]]</nowiki></code>
* Lists & indentation
** Creating lists is as simple as using the visual editor or starting a line with an asterisk. For numbered lists, use hashtags (<code>#</code>).
** To create indentations within text, prefix your text with colons. More colons means more indentation.
** To create indentation for more detailed lists, simply add more asterisks or tags before the line. You can use the colon method listed above, but it does not look as nice, so it is discouraged.

== The style guide ==
{{Note|type=error|text=The style guide is still a work in progress! Expect many changes, and incomplete information! }}
[[DemocracyCraft_Wiki:Style_guide|The style guide]] is a great resource for learning how to setup specific page types, such as biographies, using specific pages with the wiki, and how to use templates to improve other pages!

(Especially work in progress)

The style guide is split into three categories:
* General styling
** Tips to use for every page on the wiki, like how to use basic formatting such as headers.
* Page styling
** Page-specific styling that provides a template for types of pages, such as biographies.
* Templates
** How to use specific templates, such as infoboxes, with the correct formatting and uses.

DemocracyCraft Wiki:Style guide

2026-07-23T12:46:05Z

End:

{{EditorSidebar}}
This is the official '''style guide''' of the DemocracyCraft Wiki.

== 1. General styling ==
This wiki runs using MediaWiki, so if you need a reference for something missing here, it is likely on their [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting Help:Formatting] page.

=== Quick references ===
While editing pages in "edit source" mode, you can press the "Help" button for a quick reference to formatting types like italics, bold, and headers.

=== Writing ===
Write in the past tense for past events and the present tense for currently developing events. This may be ignored for quotes.

'''Examples'''
* '''Good''': "On 15 February 2021, the Department of State announced a special election for the 5th House of Representatives."
* '''Bad''': "On 15 February 2021, the Department of State would announce a special election for the 5th House of Representatives."
* '''Good''': "As of 3:43 am on 21 December, ko531 (IND) and AsexualDinosaur (RBP) have declared."
* '''Bad''': "By 3:43 am on 21 December, ko531 (IND) and AsexualDinosaur (RBP) will declare."

=== Capitalisation ===
Always capitalise proper nouns, as is proper in English. Use sentence case for all titles, headings, and categories (for example, "[[List of presidents]]" rather than "List of Presidents").

=== Date format ===
When writing dates, use the day-month-year format. For example, 14 April 2020. Incorrect versions of this format include "the 14th of April 2020" or "14 April, 2020"; avoid these incorrect versions.

=== Interlinks ===
Interlinks — links to other pages in the wiki — should only be included in the first mention of the subject, not every time it appears on the page.

=== Spelling ===
Proper spelling should be used at all times, unless quoting someone. For common nouns, use Australian English spellings (such as organisation, centre, encyclopaedia).

=== Retrieving a minecraft skin ===
If you need to get someone's minecraft skin for an article, use these methods:
* Full skin, isometric
** <code><nowiki>https://www.mc-heads.net/body/(uuid)/100.png</nowiki></code>
* Head, isometric
** <code><nowiki>https://www.mc-heads.net/head/(uuid)/100.png</nowiki></code>

To get a user's UUID, you can go to their NameMC page and find it on the right side.

== 2. Page styling ==

== Specific page type formatting ==
Follow these layout directions for individual page types!

* [[:DemocracyCraft Wiki:Biographies|Biographies]]
* [[:DemocracyCraft Wiki:Organisations|Organisations]]
* [[:DemocracyCraft Wiki:Political party|Political party]]
* [[:DemocracyCraft Wiki:News|News]]
* [[:DemocracyCraft Wiki:Businesses|Businesses]]
* [[:DemocracyCraft Wiki:Elections|Elections]]

== 3. Templates ==

=== How to use templates ===

You can use templates by wrapping the name with double curly braces, like <code><nowiki>{{Infobox}}</nowiki></code>. A lot of templates that are for information also take in parameters, which are better explained in their documentation page, but the general template is between each parameter is a vertical line (<code>|</code>).

=== Information templates ===
* [[:Template:Infobox]]
* [[:Template:Navbox]]
** [[:Template:Department_of_Education]]

June 2026 general strike

2026-07-19T03:26:33Z

End: Reinstated on condition of continued work to make more neutral

{{as of|June 2026}}
[[File:Protest_against_xEndeavour_at_the_Capitol,_June_2026.png|thumb|A protest at the [[Capitol]].]]
The '''June 2026 general strike''', dubbed the '''6/7 strike''', as a server-wide political and economic shutdown that took place between 6 June and 8 June 2026. While it was triggered by co-owner [[xEndeavour]]'s refusal to redact a player's deadname and his subsequent unilateral bans, the strike was in actuality the culmination of over 8 months of growing discontent within an anti-xEndeavour faction, who had gathered a list of incidents claiming End had violated "Staff Policy". The strike called to strip End of his server ownership, but ultimately resulted in a year-long agreement for End to abstain from "day-to-day operations".

== Background ==
The conflict originated from months-long server-wide animosity towards End, under the anti-xEndeavour faction led by [[juniperfig]]. On 5 June 2026, juniperfig published a proposed bill on her [[Gnomestack]] blog titled ''A Bill to Change the ‘No Mixing Staff and Politics’ Rule'', specifically citing an incident where End deleted one of her messages for "criticizing End's actions as both a politician and a server owner."

On 6 June 2026, juniperfig launched her "Anyone but End" presidential endorsement, publicly accusing End of abusing his staff permissions for his presidential campaign. In the post, she created the "Longest Ballot Protest" — calling for participants to overwhelm the election ballot to disrupt the system, "Find a Vice President, declare as soon as you can, and drown out the campaigns until the server is nearly unplayable."

Around the same time, Representative [[JuliaMC_]] opened a staff support ticket requesting to have her former deadname redacted from her forum account's "Prior Nicknames" list, as Technofied had already previously done so for [[Sofia2750]]. [[Talion77]] initially responded that he would check whether the removal was possible, but xEndeavour intervened and refused the request, claiming there were "100s of pieces of content" tied to the name and that staff had a "genuine reason" to keep the record intact. When another staff member, Eenza, requested that Talion77 review the decision, xEndeavour deleted the message and informed JuliaMC_ that she was not permitted to appeal to another staff member. This led to JuliaMC_’s resignation from the House of Representatives.<ref name="Raz">{{Cite web|url=https://raz.tpa.lol/article/b2fe830d-a995-48cf-848b-0dfb19502cf2|title=WHY ARE PLAYERS PROTESTING END?|author=mayamayamaya13|publisher=Raz-TPA News|publication_date=7 June 2026|access_date=7 June 2026}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite Discord|url=https://discord.com/channels/673612908868927498/673617833980067840/1513170354455974038|messager=[[technofied]]|channel=server-announcements|server=DemocracyCraft|date=7 June 2026}}</ref><ref name=":1" />

=== Initial Anti-xEndeavour incident ===
The anti-xEndeavour faction used Julia's deadname ticket as the final breaking point of a months-long pattern of xEndeavour's staff abuse, and launched a campaign to oust xEndeavour from power. Suggestion threads were created in the Discord server that urged xEndeavour to either resign or be removed by Technofied. juniperfig later admitted in direct messages with xEndeavour that the incident around Julia's deadname was "added to the pile" of End's abuses.

xEndeavour unilaterally issued permanent bans against JuliaMC_, Cassie45806, TheSnowGuardian and [[pricelessAgrari]] on the server's punishment directory with "No reason stated." xEndeavour had stripped senior staff of their manager permissions, and temporarily seized control of the Discord server.

Co-owner [[Technofied]] intervened, securing the server files and console, and negotiated a "Joint Decision-Making Agreement" on 7 June. Technofied's announcement confirmed that he had redacted the deadname himself, and that both owners were now under a new agreement to resolve disputes.<ref name=":0" />

=== Subsequent protests ===
[[File:Raining_during_protest.png|thumb|300x300px|Protestors at Capitol Station, Reveille]]
The initial agreement failed to restore trust. Within hours of the announcement, xEndeavour ignored the agreement and issued a second round of permanent in-game and Discord bans against JuliaMC_ and Cassie45806, citing "harassment."

In response, the [[Workers' Party of Redmont]] officially declared a general strike, calling for a total economic and political shutdown of the server. juniperfig published a post titled "General Strike Now" where she stated that "Only one avenue exists to punish the owners for their missteps: Making the server's reputation suffer."

Protesters gathered at the Reveille spawn, election polls and outside Capitol Station repeating slogans such as "END TO END" and "UNBAN THE INNOCENT."

== Wild regions ==

Players can build freely in the wilderness, but some may desire protection for their bases. To claim a wild region follow the instructions contained within [[Wilderness Claiming]].

The Redmont Government does not have jurisdiction over international wilderness lands, however, is afforded a caveat to manage the eviction of wilderness claims on behalf of the international community. The specifics of eviction requirements is a policy matter managed by the Government.

Maximum Claim: 4096 blocks

Maximum Amount of Claims: 1

Cost per Block: $20

Sale to Another Player: Not allowed

Minimum Distance from Another Region: 25 blocks, unless agreed by both parties at time of claim.

== Urban regions ==

There are three main types of plots within Redmont:
# '''Commercial''' – Identified by the c- or cbd- tags. Only commercial buildings like stores and apartments are allowed on these plots.
# '''Residential''' – Marked with the r- tag. Only houses with up to three visible floors can be built on residential plots. No sub-regions.
# '''Skyscraper''' – Denoted by the s- tag. Skyscraper plots can only have skyscrapers and are not meant for industrial or residential use.
# '''Industrial''' – Marked with the i- tag. You can build factories, warehouses and underground farms on the industrial plots.

To find available plots in the city, look for reselling properties with the corresponding tags (e.g., c-000). Use <code>/as info reselling</code> to locate resold plots and use <code>/gps start [plot]</code> to get to that location.<span id="rental-regions"></span>
== Rental regions ==

There are five main types of rental regions on the server:
# '''Farm regions''' – Located in the farming district of [[Willow]], these special farm regions can be rented by players (up to two per person). Denoted by the f- tag, they can be rented from the Willow Train Station.
# '''Apartment''' '''renting''' – Some commercial buildings offer rentable apartments with prices based on the number of days. These real-life durations provide an affordable option for new players seeking a city residence.
# '''Shop/Market stalls''' – Rentable stores are available in some regions, such as Vestire Mall, allowing players to sell items without purchasing an entire plot.
# '''Shulker regions''' – Certain city and town locations have free or low-cost shulker regions with rental durations of 1-10 minutes. Intended for temporary use, such as accessing a shulker box or ender chest.
# '''Black Market regions''' – In certain places where the law isn't able to lay its hand, there are markets with rental regions for the trade of otherwise illegal to sell/buy items. More info in [[Crime]].

You may also encounter other, less popular rental regions. To check information about a rental region, use <code>/rl info</code>.
== Property regulations ==

Upon purchasing or renting a property, you must adhere to specific regulations and laws. For owned plots, the Department of Construction and Transport (DCT) may issue eviction reports for building violations. Meanwhile, landlords may evict tenants who breach their rental agreements.

For further details, consult the [https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/property-standards-act.13387/ Property Standards] and the [https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/evictions-policy.26813/ Eviction Policy].

# '''Commercial''' – Identified by the c- or cbd- tags. Only commercial buildings like stores and apartments are allowed on these plots.
# '''Residential''' – Marked with the r- tag. Only houses with up to three visible floors can be built on residential plots. No sub-regions.
# '''Skyscraper''' – Denoted by the s- tag. Skyscraper plots can only have skyscrapers and are not meant for industrial or residential use.
# '''Industrial''' – Marked with the i- tag. You can build factories, warehouses and underground farms on the industrial plots.

To find available plots in the city, look for reselling properties with the corresponding tags (e.g., c-000). Use <code>/as info reselling</code> to locate resold plots and use <code>/gps start [plot]</code> to get to that location.<span id="rental-regions"></span>
== Rental regions ==

There are five main types of rental regions on the server:
# '''Farm regions''' – Located in the farming town [[Willow]], these special farm regions can be rented by players (up to two per person). Denoted by the f- tag, they can be rented from the Willow Train Station.
# '''Apartment''' '''renting''' – Some commercial buildings offer rentable apartments with prices based on the number of days. These real-life durations provide an affordable option for new players seeking a city residence.
# '''Shop/Market stalls''' – Rentable stores are available in some regions, such as Vestire Mall, allowing players to sell items without purchasing an entire plot.
# '''Shulker regions''' – Certain city and town locations have free or low-cost shulker regions with rental durations of 1-10 minutes. Intended for temporary use, such as accessing a shulker box or ender chest.
# '''Black Market regions''' – In certain places where the law isn't able to lay its hand, there are markets with rental regions for the trade of otherwise illegal to sell/buy items. More info in [[Crime]].

You may also encounter other, less popular rental regions. To check information about a rental region, use <code>/as info region --region [rental region name]</code>.
== Property regulations ==

Upon purchasing or renting a property, you must adhere to specific regulations and laws. For owned plots, the Department of Construction and Transport (DCT) may issue eviction reports for building violations. Meanwhile, landlords may evict tenants who breach their rental agreements.
