Keep it fair and keep it fun. Not knowing a rule isn’t an excuse, so read these before you play. Staff post rule changes in Forums › Rules.
General

- No exploiting bugs. Report them in a ticket.

Open a store ticketCommon questions
How do I make a website account?
In game, type /register <password>. The password must be 8–64 characters, with no spaces, and not your name. Then log in here with your Minecraft name and that password.
I forgot my password.
Type /register <new password> in game. It replaces the old one and logs you out everywhere.
How do I link my Discord?
In game, type /link to get a 6-character code that lasts 10 minutes. Then type /link <code> in our Discord. You get the Linked role plus your rank’s role. /unlink in either place removes the link.
Which Minecraft version do I need?
1.8.9. Lunar Client works well. Newer versions can’t join.
What’s in the store?
Cosmetics: kill effects, trails, titles and the premium season pass. Nothing that helps you fight. Paid ranks also get a better spot in the hub queue.
How do I report a cheater?
While they’re online, use /report <player> <reason> in game. Otherwise open a ticket here and choose Player report. A clip helps.
How do I appeal a ban?
Open a ticket here on the site and choose Ban appeal. It reaches staff in our Discord.
When does the map start?
Type /mapinfo in the hub, or check the announcements here and in our Discord. Start times are in US Eastern time.
How do I vote?
Type /vote in game for the vote sites. Vote on each site once a day for rewards and your vote streak.
How often do the leaderboards update?
Every few minutes. HCF saves stats every 5 minutes, and the site picks them up shortly after.
Bugs, appeals, store problems and reports. Staff reply here and you’ll see it on your account.
