Player Ranks & Perks

Guest

All new users to the server start as a guest. You will be presented with our Code of Conduct and you must accept in order to be promoted. Reading through our rules only takes a few minutes, and once you accept the server rules, you will be transferred to our main world where your adventure begins!

The bread and butter of the server! All guests get promoted to Nerdfighters. This is the most common rank of our player base. They can go mining in /explore, buy plots on the Economy server, play Skyblock and much more!

These users are Very Important for one big reason: They didn’t forget to be awesome! Any Nerdfighter can make a donation to charity to help decrease World Suck and get upgraded to VIP. In game, type in “/buy” to see the options. A donation of $10 US dollars will grant VIP for one month (30 days starting from the day you bought it). A donation of $100 US dollars will grant lifetime VIP. There are many perks of becoming a VIP!
