Below are the rules and expectations for all players and members of our community

Please note that our Discord is always the most up-to-date place to find our current rules to keep this place wholesome, safe, and a hell of a lot of fun.

Along with our usual Discord rules, the following apply as an addition to our Ark servers.

  • No blocking explorer notes, caves, or specific rich resource zones on any map. If in doubt, ask!

  • Griefing or cheating of any sort is not tolerated and will result in a ban from the server and the community.

  • Abusing glitches or errors with the game also applies to the previous rule.

  • No building within a reasonable distance of someone else's base (i.e. if somebody builds on Carnivore Island, do not also build there.)

  • Keep your base sizes reasonable. 1 base per tribe. (Temporary bases/traps are allowed but must be removed after use)

  • Whoever is at the drop site of the beacon first owns it. Move on to the next one.

  • Keep as few dinos out of cryopods as needed (when you have them) to prevent server clutter of tames.

  • A box or station left open is your own responsibility. Lost items or dinos will not be replaced in most circumstances (including losses due to game bugs - this is Wildcard so, unfortunately, it comes with the territory).

  • Do not DM any of the support of leader teams for help with an issue, please use the ⁠🎫-support-ticket Discord channel to raise a support request.

  • Other common sense rules apply, if you're ever unsure - just ask in the Discord ⁠💬-ark-chat channel!
