    I've been thinking, as a side part to the server can we have capture the flag. I think it's a great game on minecraft and would love to play it with you guys. You could even set up the permissions correctly so some members could build new areas a day stuff. I think it would be great :-P what you guys think?

I've met so many amazing people, had so many great memories, and I can't believe that this server is going to shut down. Thank ya all for being so awesome and friendly. Hope to see you again some time.

     

    I made this video to share some of my memories, hope you enjoy.

    Little something about your self and why you think you're fit to be admin:

    I have been playing on this server since the year 2011 so I am very well known among the players and enjoy the community. I could help out with the admin team on the server to assist anyone who needs an admins help and to ensure the server is running fairly and smoothly. I am online around 20 hours a week approximately, so I am likely to be around when people need me. I think its safe to say most the players who are online I am friends with and we get on well as well as the admin team I would be joining. I really enjoy playing on this server (hence the 4 years) so I know I could make a big difference to the server.

    Thank You

    Balmung, when will you start Managing the server?

    in Minecraft

    Well i think most of the factions players would agree that this isnt what any of us want. this server was built on Factions and to remove the core from the server means players will no longer be interested, they will just leave to another server. I have been on this server for a long while now and i would be sad to see everyone including myself leaving because someone has big ideas. If you want to impliment such drastic ideas, ask people before or launch another server with the new changes on and do a trial run, then see how it works out.

     

    Also i agree with jill in that this server has a good player base which is already being damaged by head admins not fixing server issues etc. The server admins do a great job being active and always being available to help any player. Its just being let down by head admins not doing their job. 

     

    I sound like im having a go at the head admin team here which in a way i am as i want this server to be supported by others. The players are doing their job keeping it active and loyal to the server, the server admins are being as helpful and active as possible to make the server experience better, its just you guys on the top rung not bothering with it.

     

    But i dont mean to sound like im having a go, i just want this server to be supported from the top so then it will be great again.

    anyway, they are my feelings on the server issues. Reply to me as we need to make this about the community :)

    Thanks guys

    Map Reset - Saturday, September 20th

    Did the map reset already?

     

     

    In other news, the factions server is whitelisted until Saturday morning, so we can set stuff up. 

     

     

     

    But yes. Currently setting up the new map. Dynmap is almost fully rendered, in stunning HD! (take a look at the isometric view). 

     

    Going to work on most other stuff tomorrow. 

     

    I have just viewed the dynmap in stunning HD like you say :P and yeah this map looks good. I like the spawn so far. Keep up the good work Kodauer and other admins! :D

    After reading all your replies, and thinking on this for a couple days, I've come up with some final changes regarding the server. I'll finalize these when I talk with RedGander tonight: (some thoughts precede the changes)

     

    I'm all for rewarding those who put hard work into their base with protection for their items, but liquid protection is simply too easy and overpowered to get. 30 minutes into the game (or less), I could have a cobble shack with water all over it, and no one could ever think of raiding me. However, this being said, we must ask the question, What is the point of this server? Is it blow up other peoples' bases? To PvP? to Build Epic bases? 

     

    Out of all the above, I think everyone wants a server where they can PvP the most. Everyone especially enjoys our PvP server's FFA, evidizing this. 

     

    Blowing up peoples' bases is nice, but is it beneficial to the overall server experience? Losing your base/items is very discouraging, and (since you lose your items) discourages PvP. 

     

    Therefore, I am going to made these following changes/reverts: 

    • 100% Vanilla obsidian/liquid/creeper mechanics
    • MUCH easier to obtain enchants/potions/experience

     

     

    The only person I've seen in this thread against these ideas is someone who doesn't even play on our server. marcussss

    OK, personally I think that sounds good. what about those snowball markers, keeping them?, removing them? or altering them so they dont work on others faction land?

     

    I totally agree that the main purpose of a factions server is to take part in PVP but i still think compromising for builders is also something to be looking at.

    Thanks for your replies Kod and others! :)

    Much appreciated.

    As a builder, I prefer too build in survival. I find it more fun to collect all the resourses my self ^^

    Hmm yeah I need to try the survival server out. Can I be white listed for that?

    I cant really comment on that server as i haven't been on it, but i cant imagine it is the same as the faction wars theme which I enjoy working as a team and defending our base etc.

    I'm all up for trying something new so I am happy with tweaks to the server to make the game more interesting. However one thing I really don't like is the snowball marker system. I believe they should not work on other factions land, as this means people who take pride in creating a base and enjoy the building element of the game have to turn their base upside down to try and remove a marker, which someone has placed when it has been raided. Protecting your base is now inevitable due to the other changes such as water not protecting the base. 

     

    This comes to my next point which is the water not protecting bases. When this is set everyone will just be building square monstrosities out of obsidian as that is going to be set back to invincible. This again obstructs the building element of the game as we wont get a variety of materials being used in the construction of bases unless people are happy to be raided... This means this map is going to be very ugly.

     

    I personally feel these changes are very much interfering with the creative side of the game which although this is a PVP server, the main purpose of the game is to let peoples creativity run wild and these suggested changes are making it extremely hard if not virtually impossible. I come on this server because I enjoy the community and I like the idea of building a base so it is safe from all the threats there are on this type of server. 

     

    To get back onto topic, my main suggestion would be to only let people use markers on their own faction land, wilderness and spawn as i feel they are a valuable and controlled tool for moving around the map. I don't think there is any need for people to be marking inside anyone else's base though,  think that is a step too far. If they can mark and teleport to the nearest part of the wilderness next to someones faction land, I  believe that is a better compromise.

     

    Thank you Mr Green Admins for allowing me to voice my opinion on the server changes. I would like to know how many people agree and disagree with me as it is something I am interested in and also that's what these forums are all about!

     

    Thanks again and don't forget to tell me what you think!
