I, TDWfan, have pranked a few people on the TOJ server, but I'm not positive whether or not the server knows the "rules" of gentlemanly/womanly 
P) pranks. In any case, I've decided to list some common rules that I follow for Minecraft pranking, along with some suggestions.
1. No fire, lava, or TNT. Lava might be able to be used, but use discretion between griefing and decoration... (I'll explain later.)
2. Leave a sign. When you do prank someone, leave a sign that at the very least tells the person who did it. If you want, you can get creative with your sign as well.
3. No griefing. This is of course an obvious rule; don't destroy someone else's house. If their house is made of wood, don't use lava. A prank is most typically blocks added to a building. If is a small hole through the wall which is necessary for the prank, that is acceptable, but not other wise.
4. BYOM. Bring Your Own Materials. If you're going to pull off a prank, you've got to put in the work. A good prank is commonly one where a lot of effort is put in.
5. Please don't prank on the creative world. It doesn't take you any effort to get the materials, it doesn't take any effort to clean up, and it's generally just not as funny.
Now, suggestions from myself.
1. If possible, record your set up, and show it to the server after the person has discovered the prank. (Don't want the prank to be seen on the forums first!) And vice verses, if you get pranked, record your reaction; you exploring your house, etc.
2. Again, a good prank is one with a lot of effort. Sometimes getting your creative juices flowing is the best thing to do.
3. It's all in good fun. If you get pranked, you can clean it up. If the pranker offers to help with the clean up you can accept, but just remember it's all a game.
Good luck pranking! If you have screenshots or videos of your pranks (given or gave), post them below!
I do have some examples of Minecraft pranks, which I will post in multiple posts. (Yay Vbulletin!) Of course, you may want to find your own to do, but here are some already done: (Warning, some language may be in these videos.)
