Claim Request Guidelines

The Land Claim Request Guidelines

Valid Reasons for Requesting a Claim:

  • For any claim that you are requesting, you must have a valid reason for making the request. Some examples of this are:

    • You own land within 250 blocks of the border of the claim you are requesting.

    • You have a connection to the claim, whether it be through helping to build something on the claim, being a member of the claim, or having items stored on the claims.

    • You have a connection to the claim, whether it be through helping to build something on the claim, being a member of the claim, or having items stored on the claims.
  • This means that requesting an old claim halfway across the map is not allowed without a valid reason. For these claims, you may request the claim from the owner on your own, but an official land claim request cannot be placed on them.

Other Request and Denial Requirements:

  • These guidelines apply to land claim requests. They do not apply to illegal claims being removed, such as safety claims or claims that are too close to one another. Those claims can be removed immediately after simply creating a ticket.
  • For the requests made in this thread, you need to message the user ingame and on Discord. If the claim owner is not on Discord, you need to contact them through the forums. If they are not on Discord or the forums, then it is fine to only contact them ingame. Proof of this contact needs to be displayed in your request post
  • You cannot request a random claim that is not near spawn that you have no connection to. Just because “it looks nice” does not mean that you can request it. You can always contact the owner, but beyond that, you need a reason to obtain a claim.
  • If you are offline for an extended period, and a request is placed on one of your claims, you need to respond if you want to deny it. The minimum time for a claim owner to be offline before you can request their claim is one month, but that does not mean you can invalidate the request by simply logging in. If you want to deny a land claim request, you need to tell BOTH THE PLAYER MAKING THE REQUEST AND STAFF that you are denying the claim.
