You should throw around some events or something to get people playing a little more, unless I'm mistaken the server is still dead.

You're gonna lose all/most of your players this way :(

At least have a Vanilla 1.8 server or whatever version Minecraft is on now. Something to keep people occupied.

I already asked for vanilla 1.8, and snow said he'd work on it.

I haven't heard anything since :'(
Side Note: I agree with you, Artbot.

A vanilla server is a fine idea but doesn't exactly sit well with us.

Here's why:
We have no way to monitor chat outside of the server
We can't import our bans list
It is a server resource hog

Our options are extremely limited. Spigot recently updated to 1.8 however a lot of developers have jumped ship and gone to sponge. On top of that, Spigot is about to be issued another DCMA.

I don't want us to update using software that is no longer reliable.

This has happened every update, player count sits quite low and rebounds when we get an updated server out.

Heyyy

Think we could get Ye olde PvP server restarted? Would be something to do instead of SMP

Thanks

EDIT: But it's something to do, rather then work on a transfer chest of build randomly. I would much rather spend time trying to kill Shadow for all the times he killed me then mining..

PvP caused more problems than it was worth

I didn't play it when it was a thing because people were punished for being new on the pvp server. People who had played a lot on PvP camped spawn and new people had to run to try and gather materials, just to be killed on their way back to spawn.
EDIT: And I also remember being threatened with a kick if I didn't give back God apples I got from a guy I killed. Friends with staff > Good at pvp

@itsagoal1 - PvP server is gone, so we can't just bring it back up

@cookie - Staff who would of done that are no longer with World of Minecraft.

While I see no issue with PvP, past iterations of it had flaws and I'd like to spend the time learning from our mistakes.

Like I said above, our options are limited, we just need to sit tight
