# Villager Rules
On HUBSMP we believe villagers should be treated with respect — not trapped in tiny boxes for trading.
**Why We Have These Rules**
* We don’t allow players to create villager enslavement farms.
* This system prevents exploitation and keeps the economy fair for everyone.
* Our custom villager plugin actively prevents common abuse methods.
**Villagers Must Have Proper Conditions**
* Access to a bed
* Access to a workstation
* Not trapped in an enclosed structure
* Access to a gathering space (bell)
* Enough room to move around freely
**If These Conditions Are Not Met**
* You will not be able to trade with that villager.
**How to Trade Properly**
* Give villagers space and proper living conditions.
* Let them move around naturally.
* Avoid boxing them in.
