Rules Clarification for YDR Classic Games

Published on May 20, 2026


  1. Combat logging is discouraged but not banned
  2. Stealing anything is fair game, although you are responsible for the consequences.
  3. Major griefing (tnt, lava, lava casting, obsidian spamming, etc) is not allowed on or near any structure that has clearly had a lot of care and time put into its construction and exists for aesthetic purposes. This includes houses, bases, or other builds that make an effort to look nice rather than just be functional. This DOES NOT include farms, strictly functional bases, etc. The purpose of this rule is to encourage nice builds without the fear of hard work being destroyed. The final decision in any matter rests with me. TLDR; Don’t grief cool stuff. Anything else is fair game.
