Ranks

Spoiler:
These are the ranks of players on kreatious
Do NOT ask to be promoted to a rank, doing so will greatly lessen your chances to become that rank.

This "Short List" is given to the Community.

[Mod@Example]

Administrator - The only administrator for kreatious is zerg, he coded all of the servers plugins and keeps the server up and working.
[Admin@zerg960]


Anti-Greif

Spoiler:
Anti greif on kreatious is automatic, you just build or break blocks and the land is automatically claimed. Just make sure you build enough, if it's only a few blocks of cobble it won't get protected.
If someone has badly greifed you, you can get a mod to revert it. If it's only a few blocks (excluding valuable materials diamond blocks, gold blocks etc.) don’t bother a mod and fix it yourself.

Halp! someone's greifing right in front of me!!

-If someone is griefing you and your close by, they will be allowed to continue because Eve (what we call the anti-grief plugin) thinks they are helping you. If they are NOT helping you, you should type /notok which sets you as afk and stops them from greifing.

How do I let someone build with me?

-If you want them to have permanent access to build near a certain creation of yours, you can type /allow <Username> , If you want them to have temporary access to everything you have claims in type /hire <Username>, the hire will expire if the you or the other person teleports away, or you type /hire <TheirUsername> again. They can unhire themselves with /unhire.

Oh No! My friend forgot to allow me and now I can't build!

-You'll have to have a pretty convincing story for a mod to override their permissions and allow you there.
Help! I thought this person was my friend but now they are ruining everything!

-A mod can revert it, but be very careful of who you allow.


Protecting chests

Spoiler:
To protect a chest simply open it with a sign in your hand and the sign will pop onto the chest and say
[Private]
<Username>
chests transfer the protection to all connected blocks, punch a chest or item to see if it is protected. If it is it will say: This block can be used by: <names> If it isnt it will say This block is not protected.
If you try to protect a chest and the sign says Neytiri :D, then the block is already protected.
List of blocks that can be privated:
Chest
Trapped chest
Furnace
Hopper
Brewing stand
Beacon
Anvil

To add more players to the chest right click the private sign and type /lock <line#> <Username>
To add even more Shift+click a sign onto a connected chest and type [More Users] on the first line. Then add the other people to that chest with /lock <line#> <Username>.


Trade Chests

Spoiler:
How to USE the chests



Basically all you do is right-click (or place block) on the trade sign with the payment (second line) in your hand.

If you get the message: Items exchanged, They might be invisible. Then the trade was successful, If you don't see the items, just click in the first empty space in your inventory and they will appear.

If you get the message: This chest does not contain <#> <Item>. Then, its out of stock you cant trade, I'd suggest using /msg or /mail to notify the seller.

If you get the message: You do not have <#> <Item>. Then you don't have the payment, and you cant buy.

If you get the message: The chest is full. Then the seller overstocked, I'd suggest using /msg or /mail to notify them.

If you get the message: There's not enough room in your inventory. Then, you need to empty your inventory some so you can trade.

How to MAKE the chests


Step 1: Private the chest. Do this by right-clicking it with a sign.

Step 2: Shift+click (or sneak+click if you've changed controls) a sign on the chest

Step 3: Type like this:
Line 1: [Trade]
Line 2: <#> <Item> *This is the price*
Line 3: Doesn't matter what you put
Line 4: <#> <Item> *Item Sold*

Do not put in the "<>" or "*...*"

Step 4: If you did it correctly, then your good

Common mistakes
1. shows in chat: You need to protect the chest first
Fix: Private the chest. All chests need a private sign on them, even if they're already private from another chest. Do this by clicking Shift and placing the sign then typing [Private] <name>

2. Shows in chat: 2nd or 4th line invalid. And the [Trade] changes to [?]
Fix: /lookup <Item that's invalid> you'll get a list of tradeable items. (Sometimes you have to use the item id instead.) See here for those: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Data_Values

3. The sign goes onto the chest and says [Too Many]
Fix: don't click the chest, place it in front of the chest

Web Trade

Spoiler:
(Got this from Bunneh's post, giving credit where its deserved :))
Video explaining it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qdfm9r_S%20...%206DvqFf5LuA

For those of you who cant watch the video here are the text instructions.
1. Make your Chest. You can simply make any type of chest for this to work. Single, Double, even multiple.
2. Add a sign to it. Just hold down sneak(DEFAULT: Shift) and right-click a chest at the same time. Then in the sign kreatious for the first sign just put a [Web Trade]
3. Put your Diamonds in the chest. These diamonds will act as a currency for purchasing all of the items on the store.
4. Put in items you wish to sell. Just drop in the items that you plan on selling for Diamond on the Web Store.
5. Go to the Shops on the forums. This will be located above your name on the forums.
6. Click on Yourself There is a list of all the players who own a Web Trade chest.
7. Set Price and Per The price is the amount of diamonds that are required to purchase the per of the items. If you were to set the per as 128 and price as 2. You would be selling 128 of this item for 2 diamonds.

Thats it for selling items.
Purchasing!
1. Click on someones name from the Shops section.
2. Click buy on an item. Remember to put diamonds in to buy it with.

Teleports/Waypoints

Spoiler:
How can I teleport to other people?

-You can only teleport to players that have less than 1 hour of play on the server. You can do this by typing /tp <username>, If you get the error "Username doesn't want to get teleported to" Then they have done /notp because they don’t want people teleporting to them. If you want a new player to tp to you you have to type /s <username> then the new player has to type /tp <personthatsummonedthem>.

How do I set my home or use the mining world?

-To set your home type /sethome to get back to your home type /home. To go to the mining world type /mine. Dont build in the mining world, it deletes and regens every other month or so.

Where else can I teleport to?

-You can teleport to /oc (the old spawn) /nc (the new spawn) and /pp (Pandora spawn) /spawn also takes you to /nc.

Are there warps on kreatious?

-Yes there are, they are called waypoints. To teleport to a waypoint you first have to walk to the waypoint to activate it. Do this by right clicking the waypoint sign. Waypoint signs look like this:
[Waypoint]
Name

Right click
To Activate

Only zerg and Icefang can create waypoints. See Here for the requirements of a waypoint.

After you activate a waypoint you can teleport there by typing /wp <waypoint>
type just /wp to see a list of your waypoints.

Chat

Spoiler:
Chat rules: Don’t swear in the global channel, don’t be mean to other players, don’t post links to bad sites, if you think its bad don’t do it.
About chat, there are different channels to talk in, join a channel by typing /ch <channel> and /lch <channel> to leave a channel. /chlist <channel> tells you who is in that channel.
You can be in multiple channels and see text from all of them, but the one you joined most recently is the one you will talk in. Use /me <text> to talk in global without switching channels. (this is why a lot of Donor+ talk in /me, because they are talking in donor instead)
List of channels: <text after it is in the color of text in the channel>
Global [G] Default channel (no swearing here)
Local [L] You see chat for people within 1000 blocks of you (No swearing here either)
Chat [C] Just a channel for chatting
Chat1-Chat9 [C1]-[C9] More channels for chatting
Donor [D] Chat for Donor+ ranks
Question - Question3 [Q]-[Q3] Where a moderator questions you about greif, while in question you cannot break blocks.
Staff [S] Channel for Pmt+
Moderator [M] Channel for CMod+

PvP

Spoiler:
On kreatious pvp is optional, you can toggle it on and off with /pvp If you have pvp on other players can kill you if they have pvp on also. If you pvp at /nc /oc or /pp you wont loose your items or xp when you die.
Traps that kill other players are strictly prohibited and can result in a ban, killing them with pvp off (pouring lava, using flint and steel, etc) will also result in a ban.

Teamspeak

Spoiler:
Teamspeak is a way for people to talk to each other while playing games, kreatious' teamkspeak ip is ts.kreatious.net. You need to have a security level of 27 to join, security levels aren't hard to get, just go to Settings->Identities->Security level and click improve. While on teamspeak you must either have your name be your IGN or have it in your description. You can download teamspeak Here.
