One of the server facts says that 224 players got banned in May 9, 2015. Is that the number of total players banned? If not so, what happened that day?

@Cileklim One of the server facts says that 224 players got banned in May 9, 2015. Is that the number of total players banned? If not so, what happened that day?

On May 9th , an attempt to get Crafty's paypal happened, by a hacker that found Crafty's email password. Due to Google chrome's autofill options, the hacker was able to find the server, delete all of our backups, banned everyone on the server, including Crafty and a few administrators. Crafty was able to fix it within 5-7 hours, since he found a backup that was 2 weeks old. As a result of this, though, we had to re-ban every account that we had banned in the 2 weeks prior, hence totalling 224 bans that day.

pretty sure i'm the only staff member that hasn't posted a selfie yet

that would require actually taking one (wrong thread, be me in the other xp)

I haven't post any too.
Don't really wanting to post an image of myself here, a place anyone can see :P

Y'all said someone got banned for using a mod to get the server map. What if someone managed to map the entire server using the in-game maps?

(Wouldn't take forever, if you mapped 10,000 blocks a day you would have the whole server mapped in 40 days)

@_Confederacy_ good luck...

The server is 200,000 by 200,000. Giving the rather big area of 40 billion blocks.
Mapping at 10k blocks a day would take 4 million days, or just under 11,000 years, sounds fun

On the plus side you could actually map much more than 10k blocks a day. Some rough calculations show that if you had the fastest, flashiest horse in the world ever, you could probably map the whole server in just under 200 days, assuming you didn't die of sleep deprivation, brain rot, or stinkyness from not washing.

Better get going!

Oh, I kept thinking it was 400k blocks not 40 billion :/ I'm stupid

lol, only a few zeroes off

do the alts of admins and mods still have the ability to kick and ban players?

Who inspires you?

how many alts does the person with the most alts have on this server?

i think crafty has the most alts

@CraftyMyner I keep logs and records like there is no tomorrow :D

See for yourself, The results are a bit skewed as a lot of bans are done through the panel/server/rcon. It would most likely be Rylee for top bans.

the bans this year shows when updats come out to minecraft and hacked clients really nicely

What was your fondest childhood memory?

Genuinely curious...why the English only rule? I find that Europe has a huge MC fanbase and are comfortable talking in their own languages, without any real disruption to the ebb and flow of server chat.

The staff can't moderate in other languages.
Caw.

While our staff are diverse across many languages not everyone speaks every language. If we have people speaking multiple languages on the server it becomes impossible for us to enforce the chat rules, not just for the individuals fluent in the language but also the other players on the server. We do have some rather strict chat rules but they are there solely to protect the player base as a whole. All staff try to keep the server fun, friendly and as PG rated as possibly so people feel safe enough to bring their families and their friends here to enjoy the server with us.

This doesnt mean other languages can't be used on the server, it just means for the sake of moderating the server it must be kept out of the public chat.

I hear that, I just think it's cutting off more of an audience. I've met some super cool people who are way more comfortable talking in their own language. JMO, anyway.

We're not forbidding it altogether, people can /w in their own language

Building things along the 1k boarder doesn't prevent us from tearing it down. If you want to be truly safe take the random tp and build what ever you want. Don't want to do that? Go past 1200 blocks to build your monstrosity.

If we see something griefed or an eye sore from within or around the 1k area of spawn it'll be torn down. Spawn is supposed to look natural and not a destroyed obstructed wasteland.
