The guidelines you'll follow are as follows:

-Don't grief or steal other player's property unless you have the owner's
permission to do so.","-In case of you finding a bug or a glich that gives you an unfair advantage over others, breaks the game in an serious way or causes lag, report the issue immediately to the
nearest admin.","-If other players report your behaviour as unethical or annoying,
you might be warned or banned, depending on the severity of your actions.","-Biomancy is forbidden. People that were found with biomantic artefacts in their inventories or houses will be properly
discarded.","2- Tips and tricks

-There are multiple new game mechanics introduced in this server, such as wall jumping, entity carrying or chunk claiming. ","-To wall jump, you need to hold shift while falling off a wall. -To carry entities or storage blocks, you need to shift-right click them and to do the opposite you need to right click a block.
-To claim an chunk you need to type /trigger in the command prompt and hope for the best.","-You might find yourself in loss of resources to fight off enemies on your own. Due to that i strongly recommend playing with a friend
and keeping each other safe.","-I pinned all the most important items to the right of your inventory. Some of them are directly used to access the respective mod's content, while others are simply an hint to their mod's existence. Take this information as you wish.","3- Finishing words

That's about it. But this book holds more potential than just the information you just read. This book is also an coupon for other players. as long as it's not signed by you it is completely worthless, but if you sign it and give it to another player,","they can exchange it for some free resources at the spawn's monument. Unfortunaletly the player won't be able to aquire the stuff straight away- i'll need to check if the book is valid. To validate the book,turn it's page and fill it out. After doing so, press the "sign" button.","I, [(your nich here)], ask the moderator of this server
to give my new friend, [(desired player's nick here)] the promised resources.

Thanks for opening the bug report and using the mod! I've fixed it in version 3.0 of Collective, Starter Kit doesn't need an update. I tested it with the config string you gave me and it works :)
