As much as this all sucks, we should all be careful to not get ourselves hit by the banhammer more than some of us already have. I suggest that those of us that are not banned just make a post or two showing off our individual builds. DO NOT mention Hermertia, Lore-rpg, other peoples names, and only PM if people specifically ask for a link while not mentioning that they have to apply first.

I'll make a post here soon and we'll see how that goes.

We cannot even answer requests for more information. The mods keep the subreddit under strict patrol, and I bet they have alt accounts that send requests for server info just to ban people.

Excuse my language, but it's fucking ridiculous.

We should be sure to PM details instead of commenting at all then to keep it safe.

language excused, it is pretty absurd

That's what we did; too bad one of the recipients of said pm forwarded it to the mods.

How about "Feel free to PM me for any question"

That doesn't seem to break their fucked up rules, surely?

I almost feel like that would be worse, as it puts it out in the open that we are wanting to give server details ( the thing that is expressly against the rules). Not sure though...

Idk, "any question", such as "is it all survival?", "How did you make that roof?" "What texture pack is this?", "What's the recipe for that banner", "Can I download that world?" or, well, "Does this server take new players?"

It's a general, I'll post an album when Chester is more built, and try this.

I just don't understand why they have this rule.

its over the top to not even allow comments in the post to be about the server, i mean, fair enough the title and original post can't be like a huge advert but the comments, cmon!

At least we have a good amount of us now, we can keep doing it carefully, i hope.

Well to be fair I understand why they want to limit servers advertisement, a lot of servers are run for profit, and /r/minecraft would quickly be overrun by server ads at the expense of original content and discussions. They just bring this rule to an extreme, thus limiting visibility of actually awesome servers like Hermertia from awesome potential players who would be interested in it.

When it was taken down, the post had 95% upvotes, so clearly it was pretty much only bothering the mods.
