About UsThink of us as HermitCraft, but without the e-celebrities. Or perhaps Scicraft, but without the masterful German engineering.

Why Us?1.) Level playing field. No privileged staff roles, no donation ranks, just pure vanilla gameplay. We’re so vanilla we don’t even have teleport commands, we use nether tunnels, minecarts, and flying machines.

2.) No resets. No one deserves to have their hard work erased. On SquidMC, we only delete far away, unused chunks to save disk space and we’ll never do a complete reset of the map.

3.) Dedicated server hardware for optimal performance. The server is always running at 20 TPS — anything less is unacceptable.

4.) Experienced server owner. Sophia is a software engineer with a background in Java programming, networking, and Linux. She has made custom tweaks for SquidMC such as the /coords plugin and the “Press F to pay respects” plugin that places deaths signs when players die.

5.) 18+

Rules

1.) No griefing. In the event of a grief, we have LogBlock, a plugin that records every time someone places/breaks a block. Hours of griefing can be undone in a matter of seconds with a single command. We also have WorldGuard to lock chests and prevent griefing in the first place.

2.) No stealing. We believe in private property on SquidMC. You build it, you mine it, you craft it, it belongs to you.

3.) No hacking. Our anti-cheat plugins allow us to quickly detect would-be hackers and get them banned before they have the ability to negatively impact the server.

4.) No (serious) glitches. Things like carpet dupers, TNT dupers, sand supers etc are welcome, but game breaking bugs like universal item duping are not.

5.) No politics/religion/etc. We’re playing with glorified legos here — let’s not take ourselves too seriously 😉

6.) Use common sense, have fun, and don’t be r00d. 🙂
