While translating the policy, I have come across 2 rules that seem to be irrelevant and some inaccuracies, and I suggest changing them:
Redundant rules:
(Section 2)
This seems redundant, since in the same section there's this:
b. Destroying other players builds. Causing accidental minor damage to other players builds and failing to repair. Griefing, no matter if you're invisible or not, ends up getting the same punishment, a 24 hour ban. For this reason, I think that this rule (2e) should be removed.
Steven has clarified that this rule is in place so those who commit minor offenses while invisible get a day ban. Therefore, I take back my suggestion to remove it, and instead, I propose chaging the wording to reflect this better, since it can lead to misunderstandings, to something like this:
(Section 3)
Having such a nickname or tag is not harmful to anyone, as long as it's not obfuscated or offensive. Admins can still do /realname lol and find out who has the name.
Not going to lie, I didn't even know this rule existed until today. I don't think others know about it either.
Policy typos/inaccuracies:
(Section 2)
Should be tempbanning.
Access is repeated twice.
(Section 3)
You can no longer /tptoggle other players as that function has been blocked. I suggest removing the highlighted fragment.
Typo + changing others' nicks has been blocked. I suggest removing this part.
/speed is capped at 10, it's not possible to make it higher. I know, it's an example, but an inaccuracy nonetheless. Could be removed or replaced with another example, but I can't think of one right now.
There may be more innacuracies I haven't found, I will update the post if I find more.
Redundant rules:
(Section 2)
e. Using invisibility or disguise to commit griefing offenses.
e. Using invisibility or disguise to commit other offenses, including those usually covered in Section 3.
(Section 3)
q Use of nicknames or tags with repeated characters (e.g [lololololololol], poopoopoopoo).

Policy typos/inaccuracies:

b. Destroying other players builds. Causing accidental minor damage to other players builds and failing to repair. Note: For an accusation alone (admin unable to confirm), tembanning might be more appropriate, but a day ban is still allowed (esp. if a griefer report is filed). Admins should also be on the lookout for false accuser might be false accusing (see para 1h).
o. An OP revealing they have actual access to the server logs; revealing could mean anything from pasting logs anywhere or telling people info that's within the logs such as IPs. Normally this applies to admins that are removed but applies to all OPs regardless of how they're getting access. Also, it applies off-server; for example if the OP reveals they have actual access via Discord, Skype, Forum, etc. The perm ban will include all official platforms. Falsely claiming to access access is not a perm ban offense but is a trolling offense below. One exception is if the OP sends a PM or DM to the admin officer or the owner for the purpose of being removed from access or to fix exploit; in this case only, there is no sanction.
Access is repeated twice.
(Section 3)
f. Teleporting other players without their permission and also includes using /tptoggle on other players.
i. Clearing or spamming other players inventory or changing other players nicks. Admins may clear player inventories for security purposes.
m. Using a command when instructed by an admin or owner not to; the admins should only make such an instruction when the command is causing server lag or instability or disrupts other players. An example could be a /speed command that has too high a value. If the player ignores the instruction and the server requires a restart, a day ban will be enforced per 2g.
