Everything you need to know about Brawl​

Changes to Staff Ranks
The staff system this month has had an extremely large rehaul. This included many old MCPVP Moderators joining the Brawl staff team, as well as rank changes. Junior Moderators currently have the same abilities as our old Moderators did, and their tag in-game is now pink and is named JMOD. The new Moderator rank now allows staff members with this rank to ban players after getting video proof and they also have more permissions than before on TeamSpeak and the Forums Read more...

Summer Brawl Sale
In spirit of the Steam Summer sale, we decided to have one ourselves! The sale allowed players to buy items and ranks from the store, but with a generous 25% off all items excluding unbans. The sale ended on June 21st, however we plan to have many more sales in the future. Thank you to everyone that supported us with the purchases. Read more...

Using Slack
If you’re new to Slack, we have made an easy and simple guide for you to look at if you’re unsure how to do something. Slack is a very useful piece of software, and allows members to report hackers in channels, stay up to date with recent announcements and directly message staff members and other members of the community.

Reporting Rule Breakers & Contacting Staff
Many players run into rule breakers, but may not know how to report them. Well, there are many ways that you can report rule breakers on the forums, in-game, TeamSpeak and also Slack. We have created a summary of reporting these players for you, so that it is absolutely clear how and where to notify staff about them. You can read all about this here.

You may need to contact staff members about an issue, or something similar, but you can’t find them. There are a multitude of ways to contact our staff members from a variety of sources, such as Slack, in-game, forums and TeamSpeak. Keep in mind staff may take longer to respond depending on which way you are trying to get into contact with them. We have made a guide on how to contact staff, and you can read it here.
