Building Too Close

The area around a base is handled through court cases at spawn.
To reserve the surrounding 100-block radius, a player must register the area with the court at spawn.
The first valid court registration gets ownership of that overall 100-block radius.
The initial filing fee is 20,000. Renewing an active court claim every 90 days costs 15,000.
If a court claim is not renewed after 90 days, the surrounding 100-block radius expires and becomes unregistered.
If you are inside another player's active 100-block court radius, you may improve the terrain, but you may not build houses, cabins, farms, storage areas, or other private property there.
You also may not protect that area with the GriefPrevention plugin if it falls inside another player's active 100-block court radius.
If the 100-block radius around an expired claim is still unclaimed, it becomes public land and another player may register it.
Even when the surrounding land becomes public, there is still a 10-block buffer around a player's actual house, farms, storage, and other valuable private property.
You may not build on, claim, or take over that protected core property even if the outer 100-block court claim has expired.
If a player returns after 90+ days away and finds a newer base nearby, the active court registration decides the case. A newer base with a valid, renewed court claim keeps its registered radius.
If both sides are unclaimed and the newer base owner is also inactive, staff may step in and use admin tools such as WorldEdit to restore fair spacing around the returning player's base.
If a large expired claim needs to be reduced instead of fully re-registered, players may use a 10,000 expired-claim resize form.
Court documents, ownership decisions, and inactivity expirations are posted publicly in #court-cases on Discord.
