Playing Safely on ENDOS SMP - A Message to Parents and Kids

Filed Under

ENDOS SMP is a private, moderated Minecraft Java Edition server for younger players and families. We want players to build, explore, and make friends in a place that feels welcoming, respectful, and easier for parents to understand.

Online safety works best when the server, the player, and the family all do their part. We provide rules, moderation, claims, reports, and a whitelist process, but parental supervision is still important for every child who plays online.

A note to parents and guardians

If your child is under 13 in the U.S. or under 16 in the EU, parental permission is required before joining. Even when a child is old enough to apply on their own, we encourage families to review the rules together and talk about safe online behavior.

Parents and guardians can help by:

  • Reading the server rules with their child before signup.
  • Helping players understand what information should stay private.
  • Checking in on chat, playtime, and how the server feels for their child.
  • Staying reachable if staff needs to follow up about a concern.

How players help keep ENDOS SMP safe

Every player helps shape the community. We ask players to be kind, avoid drama, respect builds, and speak up when something feels wrong.

  • Be respectful to other players and staff.
  • Do not share real names, addresses, school details, phone numbers, or private information.
  • Do not bully, harass, pressure, scare, or manipulate other players.
  • Report griefing, cheating, inappropriate chat, or suspicious behavior.
  • Help new players feel welcome.

What ENDOS SMP does for safety

  • Uses a whitelist so players are approved before joining.
  • Requires email confirmation during signup.
  • Maintains clear rules for chat, builds, PvP, griefing, and personal information.
  • Provides claim tools so players can protect builds and belongings.
  • Uses moderation and reports to respond to problems.
