Can you also add the rule: no writing on the map?

Now lets wait for the plugins to update... >.<

no lava/water mountains

My face:

How else should factions grief other factions.

And don't tell me that they need to kill since that is no reason if the other faction stays in his huge unpenatratable water-cube

The thing is, everyone is building unpenetrable watercubes because of those mountains. And I don't want that.

No. Those cubes where there before everyone started start mountaining. In the last map one of the only big factions with a normal base was pistoners and the rest where just cubes.

Water defense are against cannons and mountains against the water defenses

...You call that griefing?

[Balmung]

You know the cubes may look big blue and ugly on the outside, but on the inside they're works of beauty. Mungols BAse for example.

[Sacrevy]

Cubes <3

Mungol base became a beautiful cube after mountaining.

I wonder if this is possible:

If you claim just the border of your area, and build a wall on the border, doesn't that effectively make the inner area yours?

Your faction will be the only faction able to go through the wall, and will thus have control over both the border and the area within.

This assumes the wall extends below ground so no one can use caves (or mineshafts) to bypass the wall.

[Clavus]

Of course that's possible to do. But if anyone gets in you're fucked.

[BouweV]

Also means you need to check your border from skylimit to bedrock if there are no breachable parts..

[Kikkers]

Well, I never said it was practical.

But supposing you did, would it be safe from mountains and cannons?

[Pufulet]

can we suggest seeds or...?

[BouweV]

If it's high enough it would be safe from a mountain, but a cannon would just blow a hole in it.

I'm trying to find some good ways to encourage people to build nice things. Ideas like:

* Rewards for building nice stuff (ingame loot? GC?)

* Disabling TNT above a specific height (so your wall doesn't have to reach all the way to the sky)

Nothing is set in stone just yet.

You should check out the thing I've got planned, gonna be sweet. Though I highly suspect someones going to come along and blow it up half way through building it because everyone likes to be a douche 'n' all,

And yeah that system would work, I was thinking of doing myself but the problem is all you need is someone with a fly mod and they can come in and destroy everything, and PLENTY of people have fly mods..

I think if we're going to hold a contest, we'll just run creative mode for a week.

Thank you!

[Salty]

How about we start using creative mode WITH faction wars!

That way everyone can be a douchebag by simply claiming random chunks within your intergalactic space ship and no-one can do shit about it.

Umm... No.

But seriously, this server has a thousand too many potential assholes.

Along with competitive building, whitelisting should be also reintroduced.

It's not like half of the former faction-warers aren't going to spend their first twenty hours spamming TNT on creative mode in order to "enhance the mood".

Just sayin'

[Archien]

Hi All, just bought minecraft yesterday was allready lurking on this forum yesterday (A)

[Corby]

what kinda prize would you give, seeing as GC can't be used on MC,

also agree with salty, I predict mass abusers in creative mode, unfortunately alot of players just can't be trusted.
