Grief Prevention Tutorial

Tutorial video:

Step 1: Claim your area
First thing we got to do, is to take out your golden shovel. With that, right click one corner of your base (shows a diamond block marking it), then move to the opposite corner and right click again. This claims the area. You should end up with glowstone and gold blocks marking your area. The first chests you place on the Horizon world will give you an automatic default claim.

If the area you setup is too small or too big, you can right click on any of the corners to resize it. This only works for rectangles sizes. You can also click next to it, and move to the next area, to make the protection a different shape.

Step 2: Use subdivisions
If you don't want everyone to be able to edit it freely and only want them to make builds in specific areas, you can use subdivisions. To use them, you need to change the golden shovel mode. To change it to that mode, use the command /subdivideclaims.
Now in your claimed area, right click on the corner of your subdivision and then go to the opposite corner and right click again. Subdivisions show up with iron instead of gold.

Step 3: Give permissions for friends
Now that you have the subdivisions made, you need them to be able to build there. For that, you can use the trust commands individually in each subdivision. When you know who will build in the area, you'll have to setup their permissions:

Do you want them to build, destroy, etc? --> Use: /trust <player>
Do you want them to only open chests, doors, farm crops, etc? --> Use: /containertrust <player>
Do you want them to only use the doors and switches? --> Use: /accesstrust <player>
Do you want them to deal with all permissions said above? --> Use: /permissiontrust <player>

Make sure to do them inside the subdivision. Otherwise the person you are giving the permissions will have them everywhere in your claim.

Step 4: Remove permissions or subdivisions
You can remove permissions from a Subdivision. Sometimes they have given others permission to build there. So, when you want to kick a player from your area, use /untrust all. This will remove the permissions of everyone in that subdivision.

To remove a subdivision, stand inside the subdivision, and type /abandonclaim. Make sure you stand in the subdivision, or else you delete the entire protection.

Step 5: Maintenance of claims
Abusing your powers can lead to punishment. Make sure to follow the rules.

Players are considered inactive after 30 days without joining the server. If you are a trusted player on an inactive players' claim, you are able to request claim leadership transfer to your name, if you have a legitimate reason (you have 60 days). However, if someone goes inactive for 90 days, the entire claim might get restored to nature. So make sure to request this in time.

If you need help checking where your claim is, you can use dynmap. The marked area is teal with a gold border.
