"Your actions have been outright unlawful and cannot be justified.
I hereby sentence you to life within MT Prison.
You must overcome all challenges to gain your freedom once again"
... "Only the best will ever survive and be free" ...
MT Prison is an RPG (Role Playing Game) server in which players are 'prisoners' and must work hard to earn their freedom. There are two known ways to gain freedom: buying a way out or finding the mysterious escape entrance*.
When a player starts they will find areas within the prison which they can collect resources to sell to the server to gain money. Between each of these areas will be a PVP area, they must time it right and run before another player kills and loots them. Only the most elite prison block is exempt from such fighting areas.
The starting prison block is heavily guarded so no contraband items can be used. If the rules are broken and a staff member catches you then players face either confinement or a PVP showdown against a guard!
This is not a PVP server, any pvp activity will be punished if staff catch you. You are not expected to fully roleplay (as in change your personality or character) but you are expected to follow the rules or be punished for them. Minetown offers a PVP specific server, just use the command /server pvp. If you pvp within the Prison then expect punishment, it comes a as a package.
*The escape entrance is an event which will be broadcasted and hosted monthly. There is no other legitimate way to leave the prison.
By logging on to MineTown Prison you automatically accept the rules and codes of conduct; therefore "I didn't read the rules" will not be a valid excuse to be unbanned.

(Prison Donator Perks are entirely seperate from other servers perks, the full perks will be available soon!)

Clans is a very basic group plugin, it allows players to join together and not be able to damage each other if ever they are in a PVP situation. It costs $2500 Prison Coins to buy and the clan owner would need to make a petition to verify the clan:
/pe new Can someone verify my clan ?
Be sure to include your clans tag info!!!
Most things within the prison can be solved with a mute, jail or killing; bans are a last resort and not used lightly. Perma bans are only for serious cases. Most cases will be unbanned in a reasonable time frame.
In an unfortunate event in which a player is banned they will need to know some things:
A banned player will have their rank, currency and items wiped; if unbanned they will be starting again.
All players apply to the above rule unless they can otherwise prove their ban was unjustified in their ban appeal and convince staff why they should not be wiped and made to start again.
Just remember, we don't make bans unless its a severe case so if YOU broke the rules then expect to face the consequences and punishments for this.
