Shopping District Rules & Guidelines
1. You must buy a Shop License.
There are two custom mobs that offer shop licenses, both easily accessible in the middle of the Nether Roof Hub:
• Breeze (7 130 -7): Sells Shop Licenses Middle, Balcony, Gallery, Arcade and Stall to players (Buying a plot)
• Armadillo (-7 130 -7): Buys Shop Licenses Balcony, Gallery, Arcade and Stall from players (Selling your plot back to the server).To sell back a Middle plot, please open a ticket on Discord.
License Type | Size | Price |
Middle | 11 x 11 | 99D |
Balcony | 11 x 11 | 90D |
Gallery | 9 x 9 | 54D |
Arcade | 7 x 7 | 36D |
Stall | stall | 18D |
D = Diamond
2. After buying your license, make sure you claim the correct plot.
The Shopping District is divided into four sections: NW (red), NE (blue), SE (green), SW (yellow). Plot locations are divided into three main areas: Middle, Gallery, Balcony. Example: plot number NW-A1 would be located in the North West (red) section Gallery. To make this system easier to follow, we have created an Interactive Shopping District Map to help with navigation:
Middle License (M) | Balcony License (B) | Gallery License (G) | Arcade License (A) | Stall License (S) |
NW-M1 - 11 | NW-B1 - 6 | NW-G1 - 6 | NW-A1 - 4 | NW-S1 - 4 |
NE-M1 - 11 | NE-B1 - 6 | NE-G1 - 6 | NE-A1 - 4 | NE-S1 - 4 |
SE-M1 - 11 | SE-B1 - 6 | SE-G1 - 6 | SE-A1 - 4 | SE-S1 - 4 |
SW-M1 - 11 | SW-B1 - 6 | SW-G1 - 6 | SW-A1 - 4 | SW-S1 - 4 |
3. How to Advertise your shop
• You may claim one of the barrels in the middle of the Shopping District to display items you sell.
• Create a post via Discord #survival-shops - this is required for any shop to be added on the Shopping District Map. You can find instructions on how to do that on the Shopping District Map page.
4. Validate your shop using a lectern and sign.
Display one of the above licenses in the lectern provided in front of the shop at all times. Declare who owns the shop by writing your IGN(s) on a sign - you need to indicate everyone who is part of the shop. Do not remove the plot number. Your sign should look something like this:
5. All players can own or be part of only 1 shop
Each player is allowed to be part of only 1 shop, meaning you can either own a shop alone, or team up with other players. Stocking or taking profits from a shop you are not part of is prohibited. Combining or connecting shops is not allowed in any shape or form. We ask you to be considerate with other players when claiming plots, as they are limited.
6. Middle & Balcony plot rules:
• You can only build up to 23 blocks high above the surface.
• Building below the plot is not allowed.
• Keep within the 11x11 plot limits; do not place any blocks or decorations outside your plot border.
• You may replace the floor of your plot, including both the stone in the middle and the wooden border.
• Shop validation (lectern and sign) must remain outside of your shop.
• Combining or connecting plots is not allowed under any circumstances.
7. Gallery & Arcade plot rules:
• You may not replace or break any of the existing wall, ceiling, or glass blocks.
• Keep within your shop borders. Placing decorative mini heads or banners outside on the glass is allowed however.
• You may replace the floor of your plot.
• Shop validation (lectern and sign) must remain outside of your shop.
• Combining or connecting plots is not allowed under any circumstances.
8. Stall rules:
• You may not replace or break any part of the existing stall structure.
• Adding additional storage room or blocks is not allowed.
• Placing decorative mini heads or banners is allowed.
• Shop validation (lectern and sign) must remain outside of your stall.
• Combining or connecting stalls is not allowed under any circumstances.
9. Follow the minimum prices - see here.
Disclaimer: we are currently still working on adding any new 1.21 items + possibly adjusting prices of already existing items. Keep an eye on Discord #announcements for any potential changes.
10. Shops are only allowed in the allocated locations and nowhere else.
11. After purchasing your plot, you must open it within 7 days. Failure to do so will result in losing your plot.
12. If you are inactive for 14+ days, your shop will be removed.
If you plan on being away for longer than 14 days, please notify a staff member. We are happy to extend the inactivity time by 7 days or the equivalent of your vacation within reason.
13. Shop designs do not need to follow any theme but must not be an eyesore. We reserve the right to ask for a redesign.
14. If you get banned, you will lose your plot, and your shop will be taken down.
15. Follow all lag prevention rules:
• No Item Frames – To reduce the amount of entities and therefore loss of fps, item frames are not allowed in the SD whatsoever, with the exception of map art shops, where they have a limit of 10 item frames to display the art that they are selling.
• No Armour Stands – To reduce the amount of entities and therefore loss of fps, armour stands are not permitted in SD.
• No Glow Ink – To reduce fps loss in the SD, using glow ink on signs is not allowed. To make your signs more visible, we suggest using colour codes which can be found in /colour in game, or dye.
• No Redstone – No redstone machines or any sort of redstone are allowed in SD.
• Storage Suggestion – We strongly suggest you use barrels instead of chests or shulker boxes to store your items.
16. Name your containers "*" to avoid anyone auto sorting them by accident.
To avoid any confusion by accidental auto sorting, we recommend you name your containers with * (asterisk).
Staff reserve the right to remove any shop that breaks these rules. If your shop is removed open a ticket on discord to retrieve your items. We do not refund the license cost from any shop removed/left.
