đ„ Red Royal Decree Issue No. 1 â The Question of Copyrights đ„
Published by the Ministry of Collective Cubic Affairs, under Authority of The Royal Decree
đ Title: "Comrade, You Have No Copyright â You Have Contribution."
Article I â Introduction to the Glorious Idea
Greetings, fellow block-stacking proletariat.
Today, we tackle the bourgeois myth of âcopyrightââa decadent, capitalist fantasy used to hoard creative output like loot in a double chest. Here in Art3mis, such selfish ideals are incompatible with the greater purpose: a shared simulation, where you are not the owner of your buildâyou are merely its laborer.
Article II â The State of Your Blocks
Did you painstakingly build a pixel-perfect shrine?
Design a redstone door that plays the Soviet anthem?
Construct a historically accurate model of Lenin riding a creeper?
Congratulations, comrade. That build now belongs to the Peopleâs Schematic Repositoryâą.
You may be ethically compensated in $JR coins. (Or not. It depends on whether the Admin is AFK at spawn.)
Your creation may now be:
- Duplicated across the land like holy relics,
- Featured in museum wings you never authorized,
- Used as background filler in promotional posters,
- Or quietly claimed by another player because âyou werenât online to defend it.â
Your work lives onâbut not for you. For the people.
Article III â There Is No Property. Only Land Claims (And Even That Is A Lie).
In Art3mis, there is no concept of private property. There is only temporary custodianship of claimed land, and thatâs assuming:
- You havenât gone inactive for too long,
- You didnât upset the Royal Decree,
- And your claim doesnât overlap a future high-speed railway corridor.
Land claims are ephemeral, comrade. Immovable builds can be moved. Your home is already schematicâd.
Donât like that?
Too bad.
Your digital dirt house already lives inside our datacenter.
Article IV â The Serverâs Burden Is Collective
Let us speak frankly: the Royal Decree pays the server bills.
We host your chunk errors, we store your nbt messes, we suffer your lag factories. We shoulder the burden of your waterlogged stair aesthetic and your 15-tick redstone clocks because we believe in the simulation.
And what do we ask in return?
- That you build with heart.
- That you pay no rent, but give us content.
- That you understand if we copy your tower, it's not theft. It's performance optimization.
If you donât like that realityâ
please note your builds have already been rsyncâd and distributed globally via velocity proxy CDN.
Article V â Admins As Divine Custodians of Shared Chaos
Admins arenât tyrants.
We are... curators of collective madness.
We donât copy-paste for personal gain.
We do it to preserve your legacy... in 37 backup folders across 4 nodes.
We arenât violating your intellectual property.
Weâre protecting your artâfrom yourself.
Final Words â Long Live the Creative Commons of the Cube!
Your labor fuels the economy. Your base fills the spawn radius. Your creative output justifies the existence of a dedicated NAS box named âBig Catboy.â
So no, comrade.
You do not have copyright. You have community.
You do not own your house. Your house is now part of the server lore.
And if you object?
The ping is too late. The schematic is already downloaded.

Glory to Shared Builds, Glory to Lag Tolerance.
