Gameplay/Permission Levels

Different permission levels allow you to run different commands, and determine if you can or can't build. Most of the permission levels are normally given with the !Perm command.

Permission Levels

Punished

Getting punished is only achievable by breaking a major rule and being caught by a Blockate staff member.

When you are punished, you are banned from Blockate until a staff member unpunished you. If you try to join Blockate, you will be kicked straight off.

Banned

 This rank is not given using the !Perm command; instead it is given using !Ban (player). Players who have this rank are directly transported to the hub and are not authorized to join the game where they received the ban.

Visitor

When you join a server for the first time, your rank is Visitor unless you are the owner. Visitors can only be given commands that do not impact other's game play. This rank can be given by running !Perm (username). If a server is set to private (as performed by the command !private, exclusive to the owner), Visitors will not be able to enter the game.

Builder

This is a rank commonly used in types of building servers. It allows players with the rank to place and delete blocks, as well as run some commands used for building uses. If a world is in free build mode, the Visitor rank behaves the same as the Builder rank. This rank can be granted by running !Perm (username) builder. Can join private worlds. As of now, Builders CAN'T join private worlds.

Admin

A level above the Builder rank, this allows the player all abilities of the previous ranks as well as nearly all commands. Admins have the ability to change others' permission levels. This rank can be given by running !Perm (username) admin.

Owner

This is the highest rank that can be obtained by a regular player; it also cannot be revoked or given. It is automatically given to the creator of a world when it is created. This rank gives the abilities of all previous ranks, as well as the last few commands, including !resetworld, !private, !freebuild, and template load/list.
