The Ventle Pit Project - A Server For Facepunch, By Facepunch - Games

gathering diamonds also takes lots of time.

[QUOTE=lazypenguin;31018494]Id rather you steal all my diamonds an iron than destroy the base that took me hours of work to build.[/QUOTE] That's true, in comparison to having your work blown to smitheroons having shit stolen is a minor annoyance.

I'd donate but I don't have any money to donate with. Anything else I could do?

Well if stealing is allowed I'll be able to stay fit to my name.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;31017840] [LIST] [*] Free for all (you can do anything you want) [b]I think stuff such as 1x1 towers, and digging random ugly areas shouldn't be allowed, but other than that anything can go.[/b] [*] Stealing allowed (griefing not, PvP is player-enabled) [b]Stealing is fine, but having your hard work being broken feels shitty. So I think you should only be able to steal if you can get to the chest without creating or destroying any blocks.[/b] [*] Using plugins that add features, like CraftBook [b]Sure, why not?[/b] [*] Having groups that play on Survival, groups that have Creative access and groups that have RP stuff, so each one can choose what they want [b]That sounds good, like said below, half of the map could be pure creative, and the other half could be pure survival. I don't know if it's possible but it would be cool if when you enter the survival side you have your survival inventory, and the creative side has its creative inventory, so you can freely walk between each side without cheaters being able to go on the creative side to spawn a bunch of stuff and just taking it to the survival side.[/b] [*] On the above, having different areas for different players ("RP guys have to go on positive X coordinates, Creative guys have to go to negative X coordinates!" as an example) [*] Giving custom titles for donators (like happened on Open Pit) [b]There's no problem with that![/b] [/LIST][/QUOTE] My ideas.

[QUOTE=CowThing;31020862]My ideas.[/QUOTE] I agree with most of those, but i can see people using a single block on the top of a chest and say you can't steal it.

I might be able to donate a few bucks. Also, do you need admins/mods? Cause i would be willing to help. Edit: I just donated a few bucks. I can donate more later :P

I think it would be better if it was just survival.

I dunno, I think keeping the server as just survival would be better than having it split up.

[QUOTE=atl101;31003041]When will this server be joinable?[/QUOTE] I'm wondering the same thing. Anyone have the answer? Or did I just miss it when someone said the date?

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;31017840]I have been playing on 2b2t a lot lately, and it's a fucking [B]AMAZING[/B] server. I've been thinking about adding some of its features on ours. Anyways, here's some points I'd like to hear some opinions on. What does Facepunch think about these following topics: [LIST] [*] Free for all (you can do anything you want) [B]What does this mean? I like that people wont be forced to stick to a theme or anything, but not the 2b2t style of 'I crafted tnt fair and square so I'm allowed to blow up your house'[/B] [*] Stealing allowed (griefing not, PvP is player-enabled) [B]No - this causes all sorts of drama and and really does not fit the way I think of a nice enjoyable fp server[/B] [*] Using plugins that add features, like CraftBook [B]Have a vote for each individual plugin[/B] [*] Having groups that play on Survival, groups that have Creative access and groups that have RP stuff, so each one can choose what they want [*] On the above, having different areas for different players ("RP guys have to go on positive X coordinates, Creative guys have to go to negative X coordinates!" as an example)[B]No. I'd rather we find a happy medium on this than to divide up everyone[/B] [*] Giving custom titles for donators (like happened on Open Pit)[B]Yes, they definitely deserve a little recognition and titles/colours is nothing gamebreaking[/B] [/LIST][/QUOTE]2b2t is great fun, but if you want to play that, play 2b2t. The no holds barred, free for all is awesome in that environment, but isn't so great for a drama free community. PS:This is just my opinion, I'm not trying to speak for everyone.

Also, PVP in towns

Maybe add on the rules of stealing shit. For example: No breaking peoples blocks to gain entry to their buildings, nor mining under it in case the floor is dirt. If the only way to gain entry to a home is by some redstone lock, you'll have to pick it by figuring out how it works.

Too many rules is not going to work either tho.

I like the idea of having a couple of main areas/cities creative/non-pvp, but the routes between the cities (and the rest of the map) as pure survival. People have the option of staying in the city to build nice things, or venturing out into more dangerous territory.

100% survival of the fittest please

i say split the world into three parts, either multiworld or single: -pure survival: the only safe zones are the biggest towns, anything goes, monsters, for people who want to fight the elements and others -co-op survival: monsters, more rules against stealing and such, a few protection addons, for people who want to work with others, but still have the challenge mobs and such gives -creative: no monsters, more protection addons, for people who like to build with others without fear of getting their shit wrecked

I say we do the ol' song and dance with Major cities being theft free and outside the city limits your shit gon' get jacked.

Wow, sounds awesome, i also have Sphax's 128x128, its the best texturepack ive ever used.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;31029202]Thanks to J. L. for that dosh yo! :D Taking your opinions in consideration, what would be better, [B]having a single world split between players of Survival and Creative, or a multiworld setup, or just Survival[/B]? As to stealing, does everyone agree on having it allowed as long as no blocks are broken? (We'll have antigrief - I fucking hate griefing and whoever does it gets permabanned)[/QUOTE] It should be a multiworld setup. Creative world run by john, survival world run by you. Stealing should be allowed if the chest is visible.

[QUOTE=Diealready;31032204][B]Stealing should be allowed if the chest is visible.[/B][/QUOTE] I like this idea.

I have a free server ffs why doesn't anyone wanna use it

Seriously, splitting the world into 3 parts will be really dumb in my opinion, especially since the will have only 20 slots. It just seems dumb to me. Also how exactly would you guys enforce the no breaking slots to get to a chest thing?

Keeping as close to vanilla is key, but adding useful features that work in the background. Theres nothing I hate more then joining a server and having a million commands pop up and allow me to do ridiculous silly things.

My suggestion is, don't clusterfuck it with plugins please.

[QUOTE=cam64DD;31036940]My suggestion is, don't clusterfuck it with plugins please.[/QUOTE] Agree, keep it simple, and I might donate quite a bit for a nice server.

If splitting the world up into creative and survival sections doesn't work out, I'd rather have one nice survival server.

I think that basic survival with the odd plugin or mod would appeal to the majority of people, while splitting up the playerbase would probably do just that. I also think that it should have pvp, but just in the "wild" areas (outside of towns) so that people won't be killing eachother on the streets. The random events idea you brought up also would help mix things up a bit.

[editline]7th July 2011[/editline] Also would everyone be okay with a plugin that allows you to heal by drinking water buckets or milk buckets? I think it would be pretty cool for taverns and whatnot[/QUOTE] I didn't know people still used Photobucket in 2011. Anyway, for the server to catch on you'll need something unique; something out of the ordinary. This doesn't mean stuffing the server with every other plugin in the Bukkit database. I'm not saying your idea is shit or anything, I'm just simply reminding.

Only plugin I need: BOSEconomy or Iconomy. Please make it happen.
