  1. Me and my faction have been playing way before pretty much everyone on the server today and I've got to agree with Kod on a number of points. The server is complete shit compared to before. One of the main reasons for this is the introduction of potions and enchants. People are more inclined to sit inside and grind for a good enchant then to actively raid and PvP. Potions eliminate the need for any kind of skill, when the most effective way to PvP is to just fill your inventory with them and spam right click. We remember when pvp'ing was purely based on who was the better player, not who had the most pots and the best enchants. I think that we take an element that Clavus suggested and have a number of pre-prepared factions for players to join and also completely remove potions if possible and remove or limit enchantments, that way it removes the temptation to sit in your base and grind and adds an element of skill back into the game. I'm not gonna blindly hate on Clavus like the majority of 12 year olds on the server, but i think the faction limit and the move to Factions 2.0 wasn't the best of ideas and made it less likely for people to build extravagant bases like before. 

  2. It'd be possible to use Factions as a base for anything custom. You can fork the code from GitHub and implement the features. Still, a lot of work :/

     

    But man, I'm liking my resource idea more and more.

     

    Let's go over the design ideas:

    • Factions can only be created by a few appointed players (which we would determine before map reset). These leaders invite other players, can appoint officers (that can do some of the administration and claiming), and lead the whole joint. Normal members can only build in appointed chunks.
    • The faction leader could appoint "missions" for the faction (such as "build a town hall", "build a wall", "gather x things"). These are purely to make faction members act in a more coherent way.
    • Each faction will be build around a set of chests, these are your faction resource chests.
    • Resource chests come in the variants faction upkeep and faction quest.
    • The faction upkeep chest is at the core of it all. You need to keep this filled with food, water and other specific items it asks for. Every x minutes the server 'consumers' the contents it asked for (for example '10 bread, 5 buckets of water, 50 coal'). If it cannot find all the required resources, it'll apply a negative effect to the whole faction.
    • These faction effects can be both positive and negative. Each of them last a limited amount of time. Think of effects like "all faction members take 200% damage from others", "all faction members now heal faster", things like that.
    • The faction quest chest also asks for resources (or specific deeds), but doesn't require these in a timely manner. For example, it could ask for "20 diamonds". When you deliver these you get a reward. This could be another item or a positive faction effect.
    • PvP wouldn't be as important, but sometimes stealing resources or factions quests can require the sacrifice of a fellow human... (another idea: resources could drain faster from your faction chest if your members are getting killed a lot)

    So what would this all mean? Well first off:

    • There is a constant ongoing need for upkeep and resource gathering for the the faction.
    • There are separate quests for people to entertain themselves with, and which can benefit their entire faction.
    • Trading would become more important to meet your upkeep quota.

    I think it's a great idea. Problems: lot of development time needed. Lot of balancing needed (upkeep costs needed with amount of players online).

    I think this is a really nice idea, and a good way of organising the hordes of 12 year olds. But steering away from PvP would be a risky move considering that the majority, if not all, of the player base are regularly playing purely to PvP and raid. This change would mean that the player base will likely diminish and a new player base will have to be found. Unfortunately, i dont think this system could work with less than say 20 or 25 people on average constantly on. Personally i would try to incorporate more PvP aspects into the system and keep the gameplay focused towards PvP to hopefully maintain the current player base.

  3. 1. Your ingame name

    Brant96

     

    2. Date of your ban

    30th March 2013

     

    3. What game/server are you banned from

    Minecraft - Minecraft.nl

     

    4. Who banned you (only if you know who)

    Nope. Probably auto ban.

     

    5. Reason why you got banned (only if you know why)

    Spamming. It was a glitch in the system. If i macro a command on my mouse I get kicked without PvP logger and this, i presume, is why.

     

    6. Reason why we should unban you

    I was exploiting a glitch in the system. This, under the rules, is allowed but maybe not command spamming. Sorry if that is the case and i would love to get unbanned and continue playing this server without using said glitch.

     

  4. You didn't 'Investigate the matter'. You came to our base and flew around for like 5 minutes. This 'Screen sharing' claim is bs, besides who brags about the 'Fast rejoin' feature of a hacked client xD And for the record, we all play on small GUI so you can see more of the screen but I'm not about to get into an argument about our preference of menus. If you don't have any evidence, don't make the accusations. Simple enough?



    I'm getting bombed with screens already.

     

    You've said twice already you have no proof huh?

  5. I've been playing Feed The Beast on a huge server, clocks over 3k donations every month. And I've learned that the admin staff here are really fucking nice. Even at our worse, we're always more professional and polite than most other servers out there that aren't run by 12 year olds. 

     

    It's an internet game. Unless someone's directly insulting you or constantly attacking you it's pretty impossible to dislike someone. The only people I can say I've really disliked on this server were Jinrai and co. because they were intentionally inflammatory. There have been a lot of people that thought I disliked them just because I put them under more scrutiny than others. It was nothing to do with my like or dislike of a person behind a username, but just that they were acting suspicious, I was sent evidence that was borderline and concerning, or they were giving off hack warnings. 

     

    If you're doing nothing wrong, there's no reason to be bothered by an admin checking you out. When situations like this happen, understand admins are human and not perfect. Instead of kicking off, posting troll topics and giving the admin reason to hate you, calmly state your case and leave it be. If any admin bans you, we'll all read your appeal and weigh in and it's not going to end up as youre banned because one of us dislikes you.

     

    Normally the staff here are really nice and friendly. When i used to play this server with Corby and yourself it was sick but Math as admin just doesn't work. He has insulted us in chat for asking why he was flying around our base for so long and has created accusations backed up with non-existent evidence. Firstly, i would like Math to either share these apparent 'screenshots' before calling us hackers and secondly, he shouldn't accuse us in chat if he thinks he has any evidence but instead post said evidence on the forums.

  6. Math, you have bullshit evidence apart from claims that we apparently have been sharing screens with you with Nodus Installed. Which, might i add, neither me or any of my faction have ever done. You are just an immature little prick that is trying to get us banned without any evidence purely because you dislike us. You flew into our base for no good reason yesterday which could be seen as abusing your rights. Just to add, this post was a joke aimed at your bullshit claims. 

     

    If you would stop for one second and realise the reason you're bitching and what you typed is utter bullshit which has nothing to do with the case at all, you would realise you're the one being immature, not even mentioning this post.

    I don't give a shit about your rights, it's Clavus' server and other players complaining about you guys using nodus all the time gives me more than enough reasons to inspect you guys. The fact you're even bitching about the 'dislike' fact doesn't even bother me, you guys, together with the other immature lot always use this reason, half of the time I don't even know you so how could I dislike you, unless you're 100% sure there's a problem with you causing other people to instantly dislike you. If you would please stop being the attention whore and get of the forums for shitty stuff like this, it would be highly appreciated.

    To the rest of the server that actually knows how to behave on the interwebs, it won't take long before I have enough proof to ban the entire faction, I'm getting bombed with screens already.

     

    Greatings as always

     

    Bombed with those screens huh? Care to share? Pretty sure you can't ban us on rumors and it blatantly clear you dislike us (Seen in the way you speak to us on the server) and are treating us differently because of it. This entire paragraph is rambling bullshit and is summed up by the 'greatings' at then end. You should never have been made admin, you're too immature and the fact that you create bullshit accusations based on rumors and our apparent 'screen sharing' antics is hilarious. 

  7. Math, you have bullshit evidence apart from claims that we apparently have been sharing screens with you with Nodus Installed. Which, might i add, neither me or any of my faction have ever done. You are just an immature little prick that is trying to get us banned without any evidence purely because you dislike us. You flew into our base for no good reason yesterday which could be seen as abusing your rights. Just to add, this post was a joke aimed at your bullshit claims. 

  8. Pro Ninja'd ^^^

    As far as I know Clavus classes glitches as a failure on MC's end and not blameable on the players in it. So it's legit as far as I know, make your walls double think to prevent it. Clavus may have a different view though, not sure, wait for him to clarify it. I'll pass it on to him.

    Make an outer wall layer, and then a lava layer and then an inner wall.

    This will teach boat glitchers a big lesson >:D

    Why you steal our base design?! :P

    And Corby knows all about my boat glitching ;)

  9. What? Another genre of MC ...discussion? :unsure:

    (pulls out his bucket of popcorn)

    At least, they're not bragging about their powerful sticks.

    Anyways, I could try punching 'em in the face just for you, and I dont want your diamonds.

    Well, maybe it won't be very effective, but who knows, they might lag while i'm attacking and get raped as a result.

    (I dont have anything so yeah I haven't got anything to lose :lol: )

    It's a shame Bongo_Ben is a black belt ninja murder tiger.

  10. You can take down this thread and we will not look for you and we will not pursue you. If you do not take down this thread we will hunt you, we will find you and we will kill you.

  11. HahahHa ahhh_Creeper is 1. A good friend of mine 2. In my faction 3. Now coming to raid you because you posted this. Good luck.

    EDIT : oh and thanks Corby.
