Faction Claim Abuse

Certain Faction Claim methods are called abuse. This is because these claim patterns are used by players with the malicious intention to disrupt the game play of other people, as well as bloat their claim beyond what is reasonable. Staff have specific responses to these kinds of claim abuse, which are all detailed below. Keep in mind, Staff do not patrol Dynmap every day. It is important for players and faction members alike to make in game tickets to report any claim abuse that they are aware of in order for it to get fixed. Staff are not omnipotent and aware of every claim abuse at all times, and need the help of the players to stay on top of it all.

Claim Abuse Type	Image Clarification	Staff Response
Bridge Claim		Bridge Claims are illegal because they make use of the lack of blobbing mechanics to extend the full Claim Near beyond what the faction normally. If staff verify such a Claim Bridge, a request will be sent to the faction to make sure such a bridge is at least 6 in 10 as wide as it is long. For example, if such a bridge is 10 chunks long, it needs to be 6 chunks wide. If it is 5 chunks long, it needs to be 3 chunks wide, and so forth.
Shotgun Claim		Shotgun Claims are some of the worst Claim abuses possible. They lock down an entire area without the actual power to keep it up. If such a claim is found, Staff will not warn the faction, and simply unclaim all chunks away that are not connected to the /f home chunk.
