Blocking Artifacts, Surface entrance "Ragnarok", Player Spawns or Obelisks is not allowed. Do not foundation spam around your base or any other areas. Destroy beaver dams when looting them! Eat unwanted rock drake and wyvern eggs. Do NOT drop them! S+ Flame Turrets are not allowed based on a community poll. Tek ATVs are not permitted and usage of them is considered exploiting of an imbalanced item. Server admins routinely clear tribe and player structures and/or dinos if the tribe or player has been offline for 3 or more weeks. If you anticipate being away from the server for an extended period of time, it is recommended to contact a server admin so they may determine if it's reasonable to not remove such structures or dinos. Do note that even if such request is granted, this does not mean that another tribe or player will be unable to destroy / claim your structures or dinos.
