# 1. Scamming & Trading

This includes the following:

1. Scamming players for items purchasable on the server store is not allowed, along with any attempt to scam players for materials outside of this server.
2. IRL/Cross server trading is also banned, meaning you cannot trade in-game items, services, or accounts for real currency, real world items, or in-game items on other servers.
3. Scamming players for Minecraft items in the server IS allowed, so be careful who you trust!

**How to report**

* Reports must include clear evidence of the scam or cross-server trading attempt.
* Screenshots of the conversation or trade agreement that prove the scam or rule violation.
* Evidence must be unedited, in good resolution, and show the involved players’ names clearly.
