Nexus City is citybuild with teeth, not anarchy and not kindergarten. You should build farms, fly TNT, fight on nature and get rich. You should not scam anyone, wreck the server or blow up our economy with item dupes. Join means you have read this. Not knowing is not a shield. In-game you sign the short version with /regeln. This is the full version, DE and EN, for the whole net: citybuild, farm, permafarm, build world, nature, casino server, Discord, website.
Play hard
The line
These rules apply on Minecraft, Discord, website, dashboard and all Nexus services. Staff can close gaps in the spirit of fairness. Changes apply once published here and in the changelog. The Minecraft EULA applies too.
Goal: a city where you can build, farm, trade and flex without a duper or a scammer killing the season loop. We sit closer to big citybuilds (clear economy, plots, /st) than to Donut anarchy. Raiding foreign bases with X-Ray is a ban here, not content.
No hate against origin, religion, gender, orientation or disability. No threats, no doxxing, no grooming, no NSFW in public channels. Political agitation and extremism are out. Keep religion out of global chat. Criticism of the game is welcome when it stays factual. Staff-bashing and fake polls about mods are a mute.
Spam: the same message three times in a row, all-caps floods, fake system messages (you have been banned), begging for items and ranks. Shop ads in global chat at most every 15 minutes, short and true. Foreign server IPs, Discord invites and shortlinks only with staff approval. Official Nexus links are fine.
Names, clan tags, plot aliases, signs, books, map art and skins follow the same limits. Offensive skins and map art go. Staff decide by effect, not by your excuse.
Hacked clients, KillAura, reach, fly, speed, no-fall, scaffold, Baritone, freecam to peek, X-Ray packs, ore finders, autoclickers, macros, RPA: ban, often perma. Joining with the client is enough. Physical turbo mice that click for you count as autoclickers.
Allowed: OptiFine, Sodium, Iris, LabyMod, Badlion without banned mods, shaders, dynamic lights, chat mods, minimaps without player and base radar, damage indicator, perspective, Schematica/Litematica as a template. EasyPlace yes if every block is its own click. A printer that places whole houses alone: no.
You report bugs in a ticket. Using, sharing or selling exploits is a ban, even with no damage. Items from cheats or bugs you destroy or hand to staff. Trading them is an extra ban.
This is the line where Nexus splits fun from killing the economy. TNT duping with flying machines is allowed. The machine copies TNT, the TNT explodes, you farm sandstone, stone, farms, caves, whatever you want. Exploding TNT is not forbidden. That is the tech flex we want.
Forbidden is every dupe that puts items in your hand or chest that you would otherwise grind, craft or buy. Sand duping: ban. Gravel, concrete powder, anvil gravity dupes: ban. Shulker duping: ban. Donkey chest, enderchest, book-and-quill, XP bottle, rail, carpet and chunk-unload dupes: ban. Short: if an extra item comes out, it is dead. If extra TNT comes out as an explosion, it is tech.
TNT dupers that lag the server (a hundred machines in one chunk, entity cramming, redstone clocks with no pause) are lag machines, not tech. Staff turn them off, no refund. Nothing explodes on foreign plots or at spawn. Plot flags and spawn protection apply. On nature you may boom, foreign claims and event zones stay off limits.
Gomme and OPSucht treat almost every dupe as a bugged item. We make the one exception on purpose because flying-machine TNT belongs in citybuild late game. Abusing the exception (stacking TNT as items and selling them from a forbidden item dupe) is still a ban.
On GrieferGames scam is often part of the game. Not here. Scamming is forbidden. Always. Dropping just to look, fake trades, price switch in the last second, kick during the deal, trust on the plot then empty the chest, misleading shop signs (stack vs piece), sabotaging AH: that is on purpose.
That is why /st exists (SafeTrade, alias /trade). Both put items or money, both confirm, then the contents swap. Without the second confirm everything stays with the owner. Expensive stuff (spawners, backpacks, nukes, heads, shulkers full of loot) only via /st or the auction house. Whoever talks you into dropping is scamming. Whoever drops played along: staff will not restore the deal.
Proof goes in the ticket: screenshot, chat log, time. Faking proof is a ban. Pulling AH bids after a win, mystery auctions with zero info, fake enchants on lore: scam. No refund claim for typos in /pay, for death, for lag on your side.
Player casinos are forbidden. No slot halls, no plinko walls, no flower casinos, no dragon-egg tables, no betting signs, no prize wheels, no fake cases against city money. GG Cloud bans it, OPSucht bans it, so do we. The reason: scam tables and lag redstone.
Gambling with city money only runs on our casino server: /casino. Plinko, blackjack, mines. Our table, our odds, optional. Sign shops for real items are trade, not a casino. Pyramid schemes and player mystery boxes are out. A stake you can afford from jobs, not the plot rent.
Leave foreign plots, farms, chests, redstone, armor stands and animals alone unless trusted. Unlock hoppers into the neighbour, TNT on the border, wither at spawn, checkplots only to hoard aliases: close to a ban. The plot owner is liable for what happens on the plot, including trusted players who grief.
TPA, warp, portal, lava and void traps are forbidden, even as a joke. Spleefing players on citybuild is forbidden. Items on the floor on foreign plots are not your loot. Spawn rows: build, not farm bunkers. /p trust * at spawn is off limits. Staff remove inappropriate builds with no item return.
Citybuild, build world, farm, permafarm: no PvP, no luring kills to spawn. Nature: PvP, heads, bounty. Wilderness is risk. You still do not grief claims, event zones and foreign nature plots. Combat log in allowed PvP counts as running, not as a feature.
/casino is the casino server, inventory separate where that makes sense. /server as a wildcard is locked, use /spawn /farm /nature /cb1 /casino. Farm and permafarm spawn have a protection radius.
No lag machines, no 1x1 towers packed with entities, no hopper walls without filters, no 200 generators on one chunk. Community events (drops, mining) yes, until TPS dies: then it stops and the hosts are liable.
AFK at farms is fine. AFK that bypasses achievements, votes, jobs or caps is a ban. Auto-kill plus auto-pickup at mass scale with nobody there wrecks the chunk: throttle or off. Mechanical AFK pools just to bypass anti-AFK: no.
Your account, your responsibility. Shared passwords, hacked alts, account lists: ban. Ban evasion with a second account extends the ban to both, often perma. One Java and one Bedrock account for the same person: ok, not online at the same time, tell staff if several PCs join from one home.
RMT is out: real money, Paysafe, PayPal, crypto against items, city money, accounts, boosts, except through our shop. Crystals and ranks only website or /nexusshop. Phishing for session, PIN, mail: close to a report plus perma.
YouTube and Twitch about Nexus are allowed, without spam. Foreign networks, fake giveaways, Hypixel-style store scam (join Discord win rank) are mute or ban. Official giveaways come from staff or the creator program. Joining shady giveaways is a risk, often a shared punish.
Staff instructions apply immediately. Argue in a ticket, not in global chat. Real mods have the tag in chat and on the website. Fake admin, bribes, pull imitation: ban. Complaints about mods only via ticket, not DM to the person you accuse.
No item claim for your own fault, death, trades, client lag, /pay typos. On a proven server bug staff can review. There is no legal entitlement. Staff may mute, kick and check inventories on suspicion.
Warning, mute, kick, plot reset, item wipe, temp ban, perma. Heavy scams, cheats, item dupes, RMT and casino builds escalate fast. The attempt counts. Alts inherit the punish.
Appeals only via the form on the website, not in chat, not via Discord DM to a single mod. The in-game book is the short version to sign. This wiki is the binding long version if the two clash (and the in-game book will be brought in line).
As of 18 August 2026. Staff can tighten this. Severability: one gap does not void the rest. IP nexus-city.net · Discord discord.gg/37eS4GKBJM
Under More you will find live network stats (money, marks, levels, top players). Weekly and monthly block challenges run on nexus-city.net/bdt. Reach the Nature World in-game with /nature.
