Three Kings Roleplay - Games

You know you still had FTP access, before the old server was deleted. We could have put all of its files in an archive for you. :X

[QUOTE=AntoniD;31056527]xenon is a terrible host, you guys should switch[/QUOTE] I'd have to agree, the systems administrator seems to be both an idiot and lazy as fuck. Them not being able to transfer files to a new server because a DDoS attack? that's a bunch of BS. I've been nailed by 3 DDoS attacks in my time as hosting servers, and none of them caused any sort of data loss. They could easily plug in an external drive (like a WD mybook) and copy files over the customer requests, and it'd take almost none of their time due to starting the transfer and walking away to do something else. I can understand a MC server experiencing data corruption from the server abruptly crashing, but there are tools to fix corrupt Minecraft chunks, or regenerate chunks that couldn't be saved (which wouldn't be that many.) About the only real worry would be SQL plugins like bigbrother, you'd probably lose all of the reverts, but that wouldn't matter unless you had a massive troll fest. You need to find a host that will go above and beyond the call of duty to help their customers through turmoil, not "herp derp ur on ur own trolol".

7/11... a day we will remember not for the slushies, but for the actions of a white-hat script kiddy that destroyed a community and a server. I wonder if in the future, this day would become an ingame holiday? I also keep my idea: do any of you guys want to make a city dedicated to Three Kings on 2b2t?

Due to this, we leave it up to the client to determine which files they need transferred, and we inform them of the process prior to completely removing their old server. There is no reason for data loss, as again, we inform our clients prior to removing everything. Unicorn Kid understood the situation and handled it very well, and as Brock said, we would have been more than happy to archive his server files so that Unicorn could download and transfer them to the new server. Regardless, I hope the new server helps his community avoid these situations.

I thought I heard Cameron say that the server files couldn't be retrieved at all if you moved the server.

I am very proud of how they grew over the years. I joined them a few years ago and I have been mostly honored to be handing them my money. I know that I shouldn't be sucking Xenon's dick but honestly, it seems like I am not losing my money rather, I am gaining experience for learning servers. I didn't know anything when I first got Xenon but I learned things fast. I am not one for learning but it actually grew on me and now in my future, I want to run my own business. All thanks to Xenon. They have been good for the most part and they reply to the tickets when I need them. They do there job and thats what I am paying for, right? All in all, I like Xenon servers.

Call the cyber police. :v: [editline]12th July 2011[/editline] Whine-one-one.

[QUOTE=TheGronk;31063644]Call the cyber police. :v: [editline]12th July 2011[/editline] Whine-one-one.[/QUOTE] Dude, fuck you. You've been giving me shit for a while now and I am just about done with it. You're pathetic. Stop trolling my threads and rating me dumbs, its annoying.

Uni I'll be more than happy to help set stuff up and start rebuilding asap. Let me know as quick as you can get me on. I've pm'd you my skype name and you can get me on there whenever.

I was serious about the cyber police part. DDoSing is a crime, look it up.

heey guuuys, i could help with the building of the server, ill basically do anything that im told to do.. so yeahh :D

I lend a hand. You and I [Unicorn] may have our mutual dispute, but that shouldn't stop me from helping the community as a whole, yes?

Whether or not you wanted me to do this Uni, I have taken the liberty to do it: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/threekingsrebuild[/url]

I only recently purchased Minecraft and Shantoz and HanneyVC both recommended the Three Kings RP server to me, so I was very greatful when I was added to the whitelist. However I am very sorry to hear about what happened to the server and although I only connected to the server for a total of 3 days since buying Minecraft I am willing to help in anyway possible for the community. I have to say, I really enjoyed playing on the server and seeing the amazing creativity skills of the community. Once again very sorry to hear about what happened and I hope things are sorted out accordingly. Unicorn Kid, you never deserved this and as TheGronk said, DDoS attacking is against the law under the Computer Misuse Act(UK) or the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (US). You might want to check it out if you feel the need to follow up on this matter.

Please post all update info into the steam group.

Good luck trying to prosecute for a DDoS attack, for smalltime sites it's nigh on impossible. Also it appears he's since started attacking my servers. Maybe it's time to move to twin gigabit pipes afterall.

[QUOTE=Hexxeh;31068588]Good luck trying to prosecute for a DDoS attack, for smalltime sites it's nigh on impossible.[/QUOTE] That's a shame. So people who do these kind of attacks just get away with it like that? Where's the justice in that... Is there anything that will stop him from trying to attack the new server once its all in place? I'm sure if he has done it once before then what's going to stop him from attacking again.

Hey I was an active member of the Three Kings server and its very disappointing that the server was destroyed because of some childish need for someone to ruin other peoples hard work and accomplishments to fill void where where their lack of life ambitions should be.When I first purchased the full version of minecraft, Three Kings was the first server I played and I always came back to it whenever I tried another server. I still plan ob sticking with Three Kings even in these trying times. I'm more than will to help with anything I can to rebuild the server. Just let me know!

[QUOTE=zannneee;31072186]soo how long are you guys thinking its just going to be admins and mods?[/QUOTE] Not that long, we are going to be allowing some players in early. [editline]12th July 2011[/editline] [B]Okay everyone, I need you to send me a PM if you want in early. Its the easiest way to keep track of people.[/B]

[QUOTE=Unicorn Kid;31063414]Wait, you would have taken some files for me? I thought I heard Cameron say that the server files couldn't be retrieved at all if you moved the server. [/QUOTE] I've re-read the original reply from me, and I agree, it was a bit confusing. I am sincerely sorry for that. However, I did reply to your ticket afterwards asking if you've backed up your files as once we proceed the files will not deleted. [QUOTE=Unicorn Kid;31063414]I didn't have FTP access, it always said that it couldn't connect.[/QUOTE] If the server's IP was null-routed then you would need to use a different host IP address to connect to the FTP server.

Here is the IP for users that will be able to connect. I will add it to the OP once we are done with everything. [sp]74.63.220.35:25565[/sp] [editline]12th July 2011[/editline] Hey everyone, check the OP for information on how to join early. Thanks
