Classic Information

Opticraft Classic is a free build server. It is fitted with ranks, auto generated worlds, and an anti-grief system to enhance your playing experience and keep the majority of the griefers out. Take the time and type /rules on the server for a list of our rules. All we ask is that you respect other players and follow the rules while on our server.

Ranks

The server has 9 player ranks:
1. SPECTATOR - Can not place or destroy blocks. All other privileges are the same as guest. This rank is usually given to griefers.

2. GUEST - Standard rank, no special abilities.

3. MEMBER - Once registered on opticraft.net, you get promoted to member and can then build in the 'Member' worlds.

4. RECRUIT - This rank is given to players that prove to an Operator in-game that they have moderate building skills. They can then build in the 'Recruit' worlds. They are able to place water and lava.

5. BUILDER - Once a player has built high quality creations they can apply for Builder. If accepted by an Operator they can build in the 'Builder' worlds. They have the ability to teleport to other players and use /destroytower to assist Operators in cleaning up towers in guest, when given permission.

6. CRAFTER - Crafter is given to players who show extraordinary building talent, and create some of the most impressive creations. They have additional drawing commands to assist in their building, and /kick to assist Operators against spammers/rule breakers when all operators are busy/offline.

7. OPERATOR - Look after the server and its players. They undo grief and make sure all of our players are following the rules. They have moderation commands.

8. ADMIN - Oversee the entire server to make sure it is running correctly as well as dealing with the community. They are highly involved in executive decisions that involve the server and its players.

9. OWNER - The reason you are all here. He pays for the server along with coding a lot of the plug-ins that make playing on opticraft an enjoyable experience. When things go wrong he takes a look at it.

You will start as a guest by default. In order to move up the ranks, you must have quality building skills as well as contribute positively to the server. This means following the rules, showing maturity and helping out.



Applications

The following ranks require an application: Builder, Crafter, Operator.

Builder: In order to apply for Builder you must already have achieved the Recruit rank. Next you must have built a number of high quality and detailed creations to submit in your Builder application. You must take screenshots of your creations and upload them to a photo hosting site for your application. All info including the Builder template can be found here.

Crafter: In order to apply for Crafter you must already have achieved the Builder rank. If at any time you feel confident enough to become a crafter, PM an Admin for permission to make your application. At this point they will either tell you to apply in the applications section for crafter, or to keep building. Keep in mind your creations must have extreme amounts of quality and detail. All info including the Crafter template can be found here.

Operator: In order to apply for Operator you must already have achieved the Builder rank, unless given special permission from an Admin. You must show a high level of maturity and commitment and be ready to help. All info including the Operator template can be found here.


Application Rules:
- Do NOT post another topic in the applications forum if you have already one running.
- Do NOT ask ingame for promotions, the forums is the only place, (except for recruit requests)
- Read the application example in the applications forum to see how it has to look like.
- Do not ask for Operator or Admin rights/rank ingame, you can apply here when you meet the requirements.
- It takes +-3 days before you can apply for builder once you got promoted to Recruit!

Take note:
No application is needed for Recruit. Just impress an Operator in-game with your builds.
