The Official RetroMC Iceberg is an iceberg chart that categorizes the lore, mysteries, and secrets of RetroMC. It consists of 10 levels, with topics at the surface level being well-known to most players of RetroMC, while those deeper down are less familiar and more obscure. Some entries are unknown and open to player interpretation. Levels are arranged from top (sky/1) to bottom (sea depths/10).
Level 1
Server rules
In RetroMC, the server rules refer to a set of rules established by
JohnyMuffin and some of the other staff members in the server to ensure that, as a Vanilla PVE server, it will have a "fair, enjoyable, and respectful environment for all players".
Discord Server
This refers to RetroMC having its own official Discord server, "RetroMC Beta Minecraft".
Ranks
On RetroMC, there is a rank system that consists of 4 regular ranks, 4 donation ranks, and 5 staff ranks.
There are also Discord roles that have no in-game equivalent.

This term refers to RetroMC being the oldest Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 server that's still running, having been created back in June 18th, 2014.
