It is the goal of our friendly Staff Team to make playing on EMC an enjoyable experience for everyone, with a family-friendly atmosphere where all ages can fit in.
We have six BASIC rules to follow:
1) Keep EMC Clean and Friendly
2) No Raiding, Griefing, or Stealing
3) No Hacking, Cheating, Exploiting, or Abusing the Server
4) No Scamming
5) No Harming Other Players
6) No Participating in Illegal Account Activity
It is essential that you read the Rules and Moderation page in full for thorough explanations of these rules.
If you need help or have any questions, please feel free to use /staff or visit staff.emc.gs to get in touch with one of our helpful Staff members, who will be more than happy to assist you.Empire Minecraft has many different Chat channels. Your focused Chat channel can be changed by typing /chat [ChannelName]. A few popular channels are explained below:
- (C) Community - The main channel, used for general communication between the Community. You can see and speak in this channel from every world on every server you're on.
- (L) Local - Used for communication with players that are nearby. If no one can hear you, the server will alert you.
- (M) Market - Used for discussing economy-related things like buying/selling items.
If someone is bothering you, and you do not want to see their messages anymore, you can ignore the player with the command /ignore [PlayerName] (use /unignore [PlayerName] to unignore players).
If you forget what the Chat Commands are type /chat in-game and a description of all the Commands will pop up on your screen. You can learn more about the Chat systems and channels on the Chat Wiki page.
The Town is where you can find your very own, protected 60x60 residence. You will have one automatically when you leave the tutorial. Use your residence to build your dream house, start a shop, or create anything else you can think of. The choice is yours (as long as it follows our rules)!
It is safe in Town: mobs will not spawn, and there is no damage to worry about. No one can build on your residence without your permission. Your residence has only dirt on it. To gather resources, you will have to leave the safety of Town and travel to the Frontier or Wastelands.
Here are some useful Commands which you can use in the Town:
- /home - Teleport back to your residence from anywhere within the Town.
- this also works in the Wasteland and Frontier spawn outposts
- /town - Teleport to the Town spawn.
- /visit [####] - Teleport to a residence by using its address number.
- /visit [PlayerName] - Teleport to the residence owned by [playername].
The Wastelands world is primarily used for mining and gathering resources that you can sell to shops or use for yourself.
We strongly suggest that you do not build any structures in the Wastelands because this world is periodically reset every 3 months, and we don't want you to lose your items.
Here are some useful Commands to keep in mind:
- /wastelands or /waste - Teleport to a random Wastelands outpost from the Town.
- /wastelands [n, ne, e, se, s, sw, w, nw or c] - Go to designated outposts within the Wastelands.
- /wnether - go to the Wastelands Nether world.
This system prevents other players from destroying your creations outside of Town. Most blocks you place will be automatically protected, but very common blocks are only protected while placed in buildmode.
- /buildmode on - Toggle buildmode, which protects all blocks that you place.
- /vouch [name] - Grant temporary permission to let people break your blocks.
Remember, don't steal or grief in any of the Worlds. Those who do so will be banned.
If it's not yours, don't touch it without permission!ServersIn-Game ServersEmpire Minecraft is made up of ten different servers, all connected to make up one large Community. There is no need to disconnect to change servers because you can use the following Commands:
- /server - Brings up a screen where you can select the server you want to visit.
- /smp# - For example, /smp4 would take you to SMP4.
Vault - cross-server item transfer and storageOn each server, you will have a separate inventory. Do not be alarmed if your items on one server do not show up on another server. You must manually transfer these items across the servers with your Vault. The cost is 10 Rupees every time you open it. However, after you have first opened your Vault, you can use the command again for free for five minutes.
To open the Vault you use:
If You Get StuckThe ultimate source for Commands is the Empire Assistant. This perfect new player tool will help you get around and complete Basic Commands without actually knowing them from memory. You can obtain an Empire Assistant by typing /assist new. You are limited to one assistant per server per 48 hours.
Using the command /assist brings up a handy menu of buttons that will execute the Commands for you. Each button is titled with a display of what command it will be using, so it can also help you learn these Commands over time. Thanks to EMC's unique take on the Compass, you can also type /Compass ui to bring up a menu that lets you select where the Compass item itself points to.
Asking Staff for HelpEach Staff rank is responsible for different aspects of your gameplay experience and work as a team to ensure a quality play experience for all. Use /staff to find out which staff member are currently online.
- The Moderators may assist you if you have an issue with a Chat report or minor issues with general rule-breakings. They have no special powers in-game.
- Developers work on updates and bug-fixes for the server. They may act as Moderators, if needed and have no special powers in-game.
- Senior Moderators have the same responsibilities and powers as Moderators with a special designation to indicate they hold a leadership role within the staff team, without the special powers that come with the Senior Staff role.
- Senior Staff members have access to Creative Mode, but they will not spawn anything for a normal player or give you free stuff. This is a survival server, so access to spawned-in items is not allowed, unless for special event/award items.
- Administrator members oversees everything non-technical, including the staff team as a whole. Formerly known as the Community Manager, this role has been redistributed across the Senior Staff+ team. Krysyy holds this role currently.
- The Lead Developer oversees all game updates and other technical changes. Our Lead Developer is chickeneer.
- The Owner oversees the servers and the business side. Our Owner is Aikar.
Rupees - buying and sellingRupees are the official buying/selling currency of the Empire. Almost anything can be bought using them, and you can earn them in a variety of ways. Your rupee balance is cross-server, meaning the Rupees you have on SMP1 are the same Rupees you have on SMP2, SMP3, SMP4, and so on. You can sell more unique items with CHOOSE signs; find out more by visiting the Creating Player Shops page.
You will automatically gain 2,000 Rupees upon completion of the tutorial, and up to an additional 11,000 Rupees for completing tasks such as signing up on the forums. You will also receive various items that help you get started, like armor, diamonds, a horse, etc. It is smart to keep these items, not sell them off, because they will come in very handy while you learn the different aspects of the Empire.
Here are some useful Commands:
Player shops in TownUsing Rupees as currency, you can buy or sell with player shops in Town.
Use /shop to look for Residences with shops, which are signs similar to the one on the right. You can buy from a shop with a left-click or sell to it with a right-click. Selling to others' shops is a great way to start earning Rupees.
To make a shop, you simply place a sign above a chest and write the following on lines 1-4:
- Your Name
- Quantity
- BuyPrice:SellPrice
- #
A Trading System also exists, allowing you to securely exchange items and/or Rupees with other players.
