+===== General Information =====
+The block limits are an essential part of keeping the server performance at a good level. Thank you for understanding this!
+<well>**Blocks**\\
+Buildable items in the Space Engineers are called blocks. Every item built is equal to 1 block no matter if it is a door, a thruster, or a reactor. Different blocks affect server performance differently. The performance impact of these blocks is measured in PCU (Performance Cost Unit).</well>
+<well>**PCU**\\
+Blocks affects server performance differently and so they have different PCU values where higher values equals higher performance impact.UD applies limitations to players and grids.</well>
+<alert type="warning" icon="glyphicon glyphicon-fire">Exceeding the limits will result in a warnings and/or the blocks being disabled.  We will not destroy, damage, or remove blocks except in extreme cases.</alert>
+<well>**PrimeCore**\\
+PrimeCore is the system we use to track grids across all servers.  This allow or deny you access to building blocks depending on the listed criteria.
+Commands are also available to see your limits.</well>
+===== Block Type Restrictions =====
+=== What is a universe limit ===
+This is an absolute hard limit.  Regardless of other limits, you can not go above this.\\
+This is the total count of block type across all servers.\\
+This is a limit on the player account.\\
+==== What is a server limit? ===
+This is the hard limit on a single server.  You cannot go above this limit for a single server.\\
+This is the total count of block type only on a single server.\\
+This is a limit on the player account.\\
+==== What is a grid limit? ====
+Grids may have multiple owners, so a grid limit is required.\\
+This limit applies to the grid AND subgrids.\\
+Connected grids by connectors, magnets, etc are counted as seperate grids.\\
+<alert type="warning" icon="glyphicon glyphicon-remove-sign">Docking multiple grids for the purpose of going above grid limits is //**NOT**// allowed.\\
+Your grids may be sent to your Dockyard or deleted, depending on the situation, the player, and the staff member involved.</alert>
+==== Limit Table ====
+A blank space means there is no established limit for that listing in that category.
