Mathijs is a jerk to anyone he deems "lower" than him. He flamed me for no reason randomly in chat. Later, He came to my base one day, and proceeded to flame me more hatefully, just because I wouldn't come out and fight his protection 4 butt. I don't think I even had armor at that point, which I made clear to him. According to Mathijs, if people don't fight him with nothing on, they're a bunch of scared little kids. I don't give a crap about this flaming/ranting, but personally I think it makes Mathijs a horrible choice for admin. An admin needs to kind/considerate and have unbiased judgement. Sure he might be nice to his 'friends,' but 95% of the players on the server aren't his 'friends.' I agree with Kitty, I stepped out of spawn at the start of this map, and within 10 seconds, Mathijs kills me. I eventually started up a mini DIRT house as a temporary shelter; I had nothing. He came with a bunch of his buddies, creeper'd into my dirt hut, and stole everything. Yeah it's a raiding server, got it. However, It's completely hypocritical for him to even start to blame other players for turning away our player-base when he's a large factor in it. I'm glad Mathijs records hackers and attempts to ban them. I don't know why anyone would want a bunch of v-clippers flying around. I do find it funny, however, how he treats himself like an admin. At the same time, I don't blame people for hacking. What else are they going to do when a bunch of protection 4 guys go slaughter them the second they step out of spawn? As Kitty said, we lack a "Middle Class." This is the last time I'm going to respond since it has no use anyway, people who like me flame people who hate me and the other way around. But next time I 'flame' you I'll also record the things that happened before that. From the moment I get online I'm getting teased, which is logic, but you don't have to start to complain that I flame, it's faction wars, you can't be friends with everyone or with every staff member of the entire community. You don't have to act pathetic either when you say you get spawnkilled by your enemies from the previous map, if you would see any enemy trying to start off, you would do the same. But I think both me and you agree on this one that the real fresh players are left alone anyway, right? I don't even have protection IV since it's just to much of a pain in the arse to make and I would love to see enchantments be removed from armor and swords (Maybe keep them on tools if that would be possible ?). I could've flaimed/teased you to get out of your base, that's true, but I also remember I went to your base and another member which was extremely friendly was online. In the end I gave him stuff and we had a laugh. It's extremely sad that you think that I would ban 95% of the players on the server, that's not what I want to do, if you go read my application you can see I would only use it for the reason that it's way easier to ban someone right away and therefore preventing him killing massive amounts of fair players. I would love to organize some pvp tournaments every weekend since that's highly requested aswell. I know I can't be friends with everyone just like I wasn't friends with Corby or Awesomeo in the beginning either, since they just powned my ass over and over. But after we all just calmed down, I realised that they're both extremely helpfull and kind persons. And guess what ? I even learned something by accepting them, not all gays are weird. (#CorbyIsGayFanclub) Gurl, I didn't know you last map. So stop making up crap about "previous enemy killing." Someone from my faction talked with you, in a nice way? Who? I highly doubt that. I never said anything about you banning 95% of the server. Learn to read English. Yeah, I read your application. That's great that you want to ban people right away. Like I sad, I support that.

As Kitty said, we lack a "Middle Class." This. Couldn't have said it better. i think that mathijs will be a great admin. and that raiding/killing stuf that is part of faction wars, if you don't like faction wars why are you playing it? If you actually read anything I wrote, I indicated I didn't care about Mathijs' flaming/raiding/etc. This, as I said, makes him not eligible for admin, Imo.

There's a massive lava mountain at spawn, made by a faction apparently not liking the server. The lava was killing any new players that joined, and it pretty much covered all of spawn. I don't know if it was the best decision, but I covered the lava with water to make sure new players could join, hopefully that's okay. The faction that did this was "soliminas" right next to spawn. It's pretty obvious; the lava mountain's in their territory and their faction description says "THIS SERVERS GAY." Looks like they did it again. Adminzzzz, remove it... I've seen like 6 new players leave because of ittt -__-

Well, I've been thinking. I agree advertising would get things up and running again.... I was looking on the mine-craft forums for faction wars servers (all of which were plugin-heavy, mO@r Donators pl0x kinds of servers) and I saw nothing of this one. Maybe invest a little money in advertising and I'm sure it'd go a long way. I agree with multiple people on this post. Although I do HATE the HUGE spawns servers generally have, I think it should have a bit more "pizzaz." Maybe actually add a board explaining the server? Explain commands? Oh- update the live-map reference in the auto-chat. It's still showing the old map's URL.

Recently, No matter the day or hour there's never more than 10-12 people on. Half of those people are my own faction, no joke. Even Friday/Saturday nights barely reach 20 players. What happened? I heard there was 100+ people on a couple maps ago. Even earlier this map, the server was constantly full at 35-40 people. There's really no-one to raid. It's getting really boring. I legitly was looking at other servers to play on, when I realized this is the ONLY server with vanilla factions AND a live-map. I wasn't willing to switch. I also noticed that the server is generally neglected and there's basically no form of advertising. The one site I found the server info on has outdated info. Oh yeah, maybe give people a second chance when you ban them. That's certainly increase the player base. Advertising--->more players--->more donations--->$$$

You dirty filthy man.

Admins, This is nothing but me telling you that I experienced it. I'm not looking for a ban, but I'm purely asking for increased surveillance of this faction. Bear with me. Anyways, Angrylard and I went out to attack the faction GeneralIV (Dingo_Pvp, HaandE412), who were raiding us at the time. Both of us Had sharpness 5 swords, full protection 4 armor and for the occasion we each brought a God apple. We started to attack them. Spanbauer123 and Rlparkinson joined us. Now, we're not the best set of pvper's on the map, but we're decent. We go attack them, and corner them. Remember, two of us had eaten God apples, WITH Regen. When Dingo_Pvp was running, everytime I Ep'd over to him, I'd get hit back from his sword. Obvious Forcefield. We cornered him, he kept hitting us; obvious forcefield. They kept throwing potions at us, not caring about FOUR people hitting them to death; it seemed like we were'nt doing any damage. I died, but luckily a faction mate got my stuff. I went out with an invisibility potion. Dingo_Pvp was AFK. I snuck up to lava bucket him from behind; I immeadiatley was hit 2-3 times and died. Obvious forcefield. Again, I'm not looking for a ban. I'm just generally po'ed at how unfair Pvp can be because people get away with Hacking. I'm sure many people can back me up, especially considering Dingo_Pvp's FF'ing. Basically, watch over your server.

Sure thing. I just installed camstudio. Hopefully that'll help.

I'm not sure of what you're saying, Code. I'll ask my faction mates if they did something like that. If they did something I'll be sure to say something I guess. ANYWAYS, point is I don't want my base with a massive mountain sticking out of it.

Thanks. He's on now, and I suspect he's coming back for more.

Yesterday, I found a large cobble mountain on the side of our base. The player "jeroen070" from faction "TheJoker" Was still adding to it. I started to chase him, but he tp'd home, and logged off. I couldn't record him. We removed the mountain. Today, I got on and lo and behold, there's a cobble mountain everywhere on the right side of our base. I'm about 110% sure the same person did it. I really don't want to mine it again. Now, I'm pretty sure cobble mountains are illegal, and I suspect that they're pretty po'ed too, considering they have an even bigger mountain right next to their base. Could an admin PLEASE do something to remove the thing and perhaps even ban/attempt to catch/watch/etc people who do that in general? Thanks. -Kodauer

So, I'm the only one in my faction that has a fortune 3 pickaxe. Because of this, whenever someone finds diamonds, I'm the one to mine it to get the max diamond. Now, after mining several veins of diamond my faction mate found yesterday, I got a little concerned that I might get accused of X-raying? I know the plugin works as to how many ore blocks you've mined or something, but I'm not sure how it works. Thanks -Kodauer

That's a great suggestion, I was sitting here thinking of how to break it to you that I couldn't replace the spawners due to lack of proof they were there in the first place. If we can figure out the cause, make sure it's not limited to our server, and get a fix I'll see what I can do So an expected replacement soon? That's be awesome! Glad to help. Awesomeo and Clavus fixed it just now. Thanks. They used the "regen" World Edit commad.

WELL It was really only a test of the invisibility potions. From what my factionmates told me, they only brought iron swords ....

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue. Now, what I really want to know is if We're getting them back, when a stable build comes out. To make sure people aren't lying, an admin could take the world seed, tp to claimed spawner location, and see if it was truly there. I hope this gets fixed soon

Today, we found a skeleton spawner beneath our base. It spawned a couple skeletons, and then all of a sudden it stopped doing so. We mined in and were surprised to find that the spawner wasn't there anymore! No-one mined it away. I'm pretty po'ed right now. ANYWAYS, I also noticed earlier today that when we harvested carrots or wheat from farmed dirt, the dirt would disappear. That obviously didn't trickle my interest until the spawner disappeared. I think it's a bukkit bug. Whenever a block is updated, it might delete itsself. This has happened multiple times with dirt, a spider spawner, and NOW a skeleton spawner. I talked with several others and they confirmed they also experienced this bug (Spawner-wise) Please do something about it and do something to replace the one we lost. Please. -Kodauer

I agree with Phoney. The wither is relatively easy to craft, but quite hard to defeat without God Armor. Imagine someone setting off 5-6 withers around someone's base... that'd be so annoying, if there can be more than one in a world. Here's the problem though, if we remove withers, we remove beacons... which are pretty cool if you ask me.

Yeah bro. You still going to be in Sphere?

When a recommended version of bukkit comes out for 1.4.2... last update it took well over two weeks =/

Okay, so Enderpearl glitching has been removed. In the past, how did you glitch into someone's base using them? People used to always glitch into our base, no matter how thick the roof was. It was after we killed them that it stopped . So.... Since it's gone.. I'm SO curious as to how people did it. -Kodauer

I lol'd. Thanks . Well, I guess we're not one the richest factions.

so will my fire res And my protection 4 yours ;P

Keep yo' sharpness! My fire will killya
