? Graalians Minecraft 2
As you may have heard, the server has been down for quite some time now. It was shut down because the 1.3 update is coming soon, and we wanted a clean slate for that. Well here's the predicament. Jeb has tweeted that 1.3 won't be coming out until August. I wanted to have the server up as a fun thing to do this summer for everybody, but the update has been awkwardly plopped in the middle, so I don't really know about that. We have two choices here, so please take a minute to vote in this thread. Choice 1 - Open Server Now
Choice 2 - Open Server Later
Personally, I'd much rather open the server now. I've been itching to get started on a new map lately, so I don't really want to have to wait another month. I also feel like any pyramids near spawn will be ransacked anyways so you'll still have to venture out thousands of blocks to find new ones. What do you think? My goal with the new server is to provide a cleaner, safer environment with severe ********iefing plug ins and try to maintain as cool as a community as possible, with as little drama as possible. This was successful to an extent on the last server, but several major failures such as PVP divided players and staff apart, and even caused a few people to lose the server. Towards the end of the last server, I started to mess around with a few people on the server, lol, with invisibility and stuff; I believe I said this before, but I'm going to be 100% clean on the new server. I don't think anybody left because of it, but this is my promise to you that you will be able to have a better time on our server if you did leave. I want to explore the vast world of plug-ins and provide more fun, with guilds, guild wars, etc. on the server. One huge thing I want to do is ease the fear of building close to spawn. In the last map, everybody was scared out of their wits to build close to spawn, because it was a griefer haven, unattractive, etc. I want to try to recreate the feeling of when you entered the first Graalians server and walked down a pathway to a beach and saw lots of houses, like Dusty's, Crono's, and Saputo's shop. To me that was fun. We truly felt like a community then. This new map will have anti griefing from the start and a much nicer spawn area so that we can attempt to recreate this old feeling. |

You could just turn the server into Multiplayer SkyGrid until 1.3?

I think any sort of "challenge" would be fun till 1.3 comes around.

There are a lot of challenges that can conserve amount of chunks loaded.

I'm just suggesting we do some challenge map then make a new map when he server comes out, not conserving chunks that get loaded.

I would prefer it to be open now. The pyramids, temples, etc. will be ransacked (like Matt had said) in a matter of seconds. Which would make the waiting worthless. Plus, I've seen the current status of version 1.3. I have not found one pyramid/temple once yet. The biomes in version 1.3 are much bigger, so it would be harder to actually venture off and find a Jungle biome (I believe that is the only places these temples spawn). I would suggest to add the plug-in that Toad had on his server. That one wand/magic thing. That was a really nice addition to the server which made it pretty fun. Also, how many total OPs will there be on the server? I remember you saying that you would want more than yourself as an OP. |
