Stumps and Beacons are integral parts of the Celestial Butterfly ecosystem. They enable players to explore lands, hunt butterflies, and collect Blossoms — contributing to an active and vibrant in-world experience.
By hosting a Stump or Beacon on your land, you become an Owner and a key member of the Celestial Butterfly community. Owners help expand the gameplay network, encourage exploration, and attract new visitors to their regions. This mutual exchange benefits both the player community and landowners, ensuring a sustainable and engaging environment for all participants.
The following Terms of Service outline the rights, responsibilities, and expectations for all Hosts who choose to participate in the Celestial Butterfly system. These rules ensure fairness, transparency, and a consistent experience across all participating regions.
1.1 Community Role: Hosts are community partners who provide access points (Stumps or Beacons) for butterfly hunting and event participation.
1.2 System Integrity: All Stumps and Beacons must remain linked to the official Celestial Butterfly system and operate according to the latest software updates.
1.3 Fair Use: Hosts must ensure their devices are publicly accessible and not used for private or exploitative purposes.
1.4 Compliance: Hosting a Stump or Beacon implies acceptance of these Terms of Service, as well as all related rules published by Celestial Butterfly.
These terms are designed to protect both Hosts and players while ensuring a consistent and enjoyable experience within the Celestial Butterfly universe.
To maintain a fair and enjoyable experience for all players, every Stump or Beacon must remain fully accessible to the public. Hosts are responsible for ensuring that their devices can be used freely without unnecessary restrictions or limitations.
