@iclutchHD How old were you when you first started coding and what made it seem appealing to want to learn it?

I did some coding when I was about 10 or 11 but I really got into it when I was 14 and started using RealBasic. One of my first projects was a lighting board from my high school, it was just so cool to be able to write characters and have it do anything I wanted. The question wasn't whether or not it could be done it was how.

@Gnute57 @CraftyMyner would it be ok if I started an anarchy server called Croofy Moines? And also if I did would you direct banned players there?

Shh, please keep your mind reading to yourself *cough* MyneHax.com *cough*.

@2Chill What is the most unexpected compliment you have gotten ,regarding the server? * . feel free to leave out names if you wish or explicit details .

@Gnute57 how does the tick speed system work?

It counts how many ticks go by in 5 seconds and then compares it to what it should be.

@Jordi223b I have a question about this, how many players could the server run without lag, if we used plugins?

300+, there are servers like ours that have run 500+ on one server.

@TheSpiderman2013 Can you put "tps?" back?

I have already given my answer, it's too spammy and it promotes a toxic environment around the already annoying lag issues.

Sample:

Player1: is anyone lagging?
Player1: tps?
Server: One sec, let me check on that.
Server: The current server tps is (something less than 20.0)
Player1: Why is the server lagging?
Server: Ask Mojang why their game lag's
Player2: This server is shit it can't even run 20tps
Player3: It probably is some sort of shitty potato in owners basement.
Staff1: server specs?
Server: i7 6700k @ 4.7ghz, 64gb ram, 500gb ssd, 1gbps
Player4: There's your problem, you should be using (some $11k 40core xeon cpu running at 2.3ghz)
Staff2: No, Minecraft is not optimized to take advantage of multiple cores.

"TPS?" doesn't cause any lag, however, it is not very accurate because it only takes a 5-second sample.

@Jordi223b If I'm not mistaken, correct me if I'm wrong, it uses a Neural Network, those are used for facial recognition and Go AI too, I think

Yes, it uses a combination of a Neural Network alongside a few other algorithms to find keywords and key statements. It uses that information to find the best match for the question.

@GodOfDiscordia Hmmm I see, so then in order to implement this you've created your own external code and attached it within the server files/ jar? Or am I still misunderstanding :o

No modification to the jar, there is a program that runs the jar file and watches the output (My panel). This program looks for questions (stuff that starts with who/what/when/where/why or ends with "?" a bit more complicated than that) and sends the questions to my service that resolves them and sends back a response in the form of a command to run.

@GodOfDiscordia Oh my this sounds much more in depth than I originally thought. I'll have to see if i have the muster/knowledge to recreate this.

A basic scoreboard clock system certainly won't do the trick :P

The AI system doesn't use any command blocks except for running in-game announcements like the vote links.
