Rules

Last Updated - October 08, 2022

A. General Composure

  1. Be nice and respectful towards everyone. Excessive swearing, rudeness, and harassment is not tolerated.
  2. Do not spam or advertise.
  3. Observers should never give tactical information to players or intentionally disrupt game play.
  4. Follow any directions given by a Overcast Community staff member. If you believe a staff member has directed you wrongly, please email brott@oc.tc.

B. General Gameplay

  1. Players may not abuse glitches, like placing blocks in areas restricted by the plugin to walk on, also known as "block glitching".
  2. Maps may have rules that apply only to that specific map. They can be read under /map.
  3. Players may only press one button, and have it register as one click. Any behaviour that results in double clicks is prohibited.
    1. Jitter clicking is explicitly permitted.
    2. Butterfly clicking is discouraged as it is more likely to produce double clicks. Do so at your own risk.
    3. Drag clicking is explicitly prohibited, as it is generating more than one click with a single movement.
    4. If your mouse's debounce timer is configurable, it must be set to a minimum of 10 ms.

    3. Teamkilling by spleefing or blowing them up with TNT.
    4. Aiding or working together with a member of the other team.

E. Punishments

  1. Players may be kicked for breaking the rules. If the rule violation is severe, you may be banned instead.
