It is not only annoying, but a red flag; you won't get it. This may result in a ban depending on the context.
15 - Do Not Post About Things in the Blacklist
If there are designated channels for a specific topic (such as #creepy-crawlies), keep said topics in that channel. Others may be discussed if you use a CW or TW (with the criteria listed), and blackout the text or image mentioning said thing either by using || [content] || or marking it as a spoiler (desktop only). In most cases, keep this content in either the #serious or #vent channels.
16 - Don't Remove Decorative Resources
Decorative resources include things such as Trees, Ores, Flowers, and other things that can be found naturally, but are being used as decoration for a build or town. If you wish to remove any trees in a town to make space for a build there should be no problem doing that, Just make sure you don't remove decorative resources that are part of specific builds.
17 - Don't Build Too Close to Other Buildings
If you are in a town and you want to build something but its next to someone's house, ask the owner of the building or staff if you can build next to it or if you need to leave any space. We all put hard work into making our buildings look just right, not everyone would appreciate your masterpiece right up next to theirs.
Exceptions
Not everything on this list is final, some situations cant always be applied to a set of black and white rules, some other reasons you could be banned is if you are blatantly ignoring the rules, doing things that are not explicitly against the rules but is not in the spirit of them, or if you are not a good fit for the community (this doesn't mean gate keeping peoples gender or sexuality). People don't usually get banned for these things, just make sure to be kind, have fun, and there shouldn't be any issues :)
