I know most kids are immature, but you would be surprised. Just ban the ones who can't behave
[QUOTE=IliekBoxes;34052646]I know most kids are immature, but you would be surprised. Just ban the ones who can't behave[/QUOTE]Or ignore the whitelist applications that can't spell correctly?
I'm probably going to stop on all the big projects and move back to smaller ones and just being a big merchant of sorts. I'm planning out cities for the next 3 maps in my free time. This map is getting older, I'm ready to go into the "sit back until I can build my buddies and I a house of iron and diamond to retire to for the last month" phase.
And that is why Brim is rich. He's got everything planned :v:

Also, damn the limit of 1 TC per person. Got like two ideas after the modern map, namely space and apocalypse themed TC maps.
few months

personally I'm kinda bored of it because it's the same people with barely anybody even thinking to start a new town. Imagine how many towns would be created with people from the forums. Sure, a couple of dumbasses would get through the application form but yin-yang, right? The smart ones would start bustling settlements. Maybe there would be less dying towns too. It seems like Karkand and Virvel are the only full-scale towns that are active.

I think it would probably end up with more abandonned towns and probably a lot of annoying floating sprites and crappy little settlements. I'm probably just being a pessimist though.

Well, the realistic outcome would be somewhere in-between. There would be more abandoned towns, but also more populated towns. A very clear "don't build any sprites you are causing cancer holy shit" rule would be enough to stop 99% of the "lol xD mario sprittz!!" crowd.
Lets get some american players so I won't be so quiet while I'm aimlessly exploring.
[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;34052987]How long will the current map stay do we think?
I don't want to start building my place and then the map change half way though.
[editline]4th January 2012[/editline]
Also, is it just me, or is that random floating castle next to Karkand [i]really[/i] annoying...[/QUOTE]
I'm hoping at least another 4 months. I'm HOPING Profan goes to something like a summer/winter map deal, where the map changes every 6-8 months. That'd be nice. Yes, this map is getting old, but it's the time that gives us the chance to let cities age, see which ones last the longest, and end up with a big kick-ass map to destroy when it's all over.
And I don't really mind it, could be prettier though.
[editline]4th January 2012[/editline]
I'm also hoping for longer map life-spans because my city for the next map has a target 3 month completion time :v:
Yeah we will probably get some griefers and such in the beginning but after that the good people will stay and it's those people we want right?

Indeed. Also, I'm blue raspberry flavored as of 10 minutes ago. Orange is for queers anyway.

Going to start up Virvel for real again, so we breath some life into the server again.

Don't forget the thread on minecraftforums.net, i wanna get the bump, i mean discussion going! :smile:
It might be time to resurrect Drzewo Lodu.
[QUOTE=ZestyLemons;34056199]It might be time to resurrect Drzewo Lodu.[/QUOTE]
Agreed, believe it or not, we could use one or two more well organized cities. I'm not leaving Karkand until the end of the server, when I move out as far as possible and "retire." But not many people are moving in, a new Drzewo Lodu would certainly attract more people.
Wait on that subject what's happened to Virvel?
The massive wall was built about a week ago and Profan was building a fort while i helped him mine stone but it just vanished and i haven't seen any progress whatsoever since.

The wall is a long way from finished yet but I have no idea about the fort.

I haven't really found a good place to put it. I would really prefer a snow biome, but the only snow is around spawn. That's not really the problem, the real problem is there's a bunch of ugly crap around spawn that's taking up space.
[QUOTE=Profanwolf;34055006]Going to start up Virvel for real again, so we breath some life into the server again.[/QUOTE]
Once Virvel's up and running I'll finally be able to find other people in the towns. I used to be able to go to Karkand to find others. The forums idea is great.
For people that want snow, I could try to reuse snowseasons to enable admins / mods to pick chunks for being snowy! It would work like this:
Wooden Shovel would be the tool to use. Right click at a block in a chunk and you'll see red squares at the edges. (This is only visible to you) These chunks will locally be temporarily saved to a hashmap.
When you're done selecting, these chunks will be saved to a file. (Region based system, region1.dat ; region2.dat and so on for easy deleting of regions when in them)
You can also enable a snowchecker, that will search through chunks for more than 10 blocks of snow, and add them to regions to be able to toggle them.
Sounds good?

I think you should go explore, not many has explored the map any further since 1.0 so i think that if you do some exploring you will find a snow biome.
Any news of that thread-bumping business?
[QUOTE=RixxzIV;34061839]Any news of that thread-bumping business?[/QUOTE]
No but hopefully profan creates a thread soon so we can start it.
For all the talk of getting the server busy, not a lot of you are actually coming on and filling it up with yourselves.

That's the fate of the spawn. No matter what you do, they keep on building more and more ugly shit. It's horrific.
It would cool as FUCK if we had shit like this on our server.
[video=youtube;gkOgmU6PWMM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkOgmU6PWMM[/video]
Cause personally I think, surviving and building just doesn't cut it. If we had events and fun races and shit it would cheer the server up a bit.

I agree. We should build roller coasters and water slides and cool stuff like that.
I tried building an amusement park back on the map with Alloro but it never took off, and somebody kept griefing it.
I do think something to spice everything up would be nice, I don't want to be flamed but the reason I'm never on any more is because playing Factions gives me something to work towards whereas before, building something cool was just for my own satisfaction.
