@WBlaine But unless the ISP's have a stake in video games, they have no interest in video games. Also, mojang and Microsoft have nothing to do with hosting servers (other than realms). From my understanding, once they provide the JAR, microsoft and mojang have nothing to do with the interaction between the hosting server and the ISP.

The ISP is intrested in all internet service. They want to restrict all internet access, doesn't matter if it's for games or a video service.

The other thing about Mojang's connection to servers is true, but when they update, they have to send that update to all servers. Maybe the server gets a ad on saying [Would you like to update to 1.13? (Pay 10$)].

Even if that didn't happen to servers. Players might have to pay to keep up with the updates, making the server more empty for those that can't or don't want to pay in order to update.

@WBlaine I am not the most informed with how internet traffic works, but I kind of fail to see how this would effect a minecraft server. The ISP's would be able to slow down the rates for consumers from various sources of content, but I don't think they would flat out slow down internet speeds or else their coverage would no longer be competitive (edit: of course, with the exception being areas where there is only one ISP). They would throttle speeds for content providers that have content that competes with their own content ( i.e. Video streaming services) and content they dont approve of (e.g. Controversial content). Maybe I am missing a part of the picture, but, I just don't see why they would target a minecraft server. And, before people assume otherwise, I by no means support the repeal of net neutrality.

Microsoft owns mojang, and it might cost for them to create servers. So any minecraft server would have to pay to mojang or Microsoft so Microsoft can pay the ISP for the servers...

@GibsonAxe No

Well that's a bummer =[

Hello, i was wondering if this machine is allowed

Just know that i haven't built it yet.

I was wondering 'cause some nether roof glitches are allowed, but is this allowed?

@SharpSerac He applied, wasn't let in.
Also timeking is mineseyecraft and he's definitely not in team eye xd

Ok dx

@SharpSerac ?

When did you first join CraftyMynes?: November 14th I believe.

What is your tick count?: No idea.

How experienced are you in PVP?: I would say I am great at pvp. I have many victories concerning hunger games.

How do you like to play the game?: I love to do pretty much everything.

Tell us about yourself (anything you'd like us to know, or general information about hobbies etc.): I'm commendable at traps, raids, griefs, hunts, etc.

What do you like about Team Eye? (At least 50 words, no more than 150): Team Eye is a faction on the rise. To put it quite bluntly, I want to join the winning team. It seems as though Team Eye has a great sense of unity. They over all seem like a fun group, one that I think I can help benefit. (Not to mention I got some coords to share) >;). Forgive me if it is not 50 words, I have to leave soon.

Why do you want to join? (At least 50 words, no more than 150): I want to join for plenty of reasons, the main one being: it sounds fun. Going on raids as a team isn't something you can do on single player, and quite frankily, it is such a thrill. I love the hunt, and I love the teamwork.

What do you bring to the table? (At least 100 words, no more than 200): Basically anything. I know up top it says they dont want people like builders and redstoners, (which I can understand why) but I am just a good- well rounded, player. Want me to build a trap? Done. Want me to find a user? Found. Want me to raid someone? Consider it done. I have good pvp skills, a sense of war strategy, and if I am being honest, this isn't my first time. (More like millionth.) Anyway, once again you'll have to forgive my lack of words. I gtg)

What sets you apart from the other applicants? (This is the most crucial question, write as much or as little as you want, but put thought into it):
---------------
What sets me apart? Socially, I'm not your average kid who plays Mc. I can get along well, and I think I've got a sense of humor. I can think for myself as well as I can 'take one for the team'. I am a good strategizer. In the past, I may have toppled a couple of servers just to see if I could. I found out I was good at it, and continued to do so. I think Team Eye has exactly what I am looking for. However, I could be wrong.

But what about this?

@TimeKing297 @Wylieguy welcome to team eye!

And this?

Iron armor

@Fingerbib @MisterChris717 can you explain

He just joined team eye, so this faction doesn't exist anymore

But what will happen to the server? Do we have to pay per month? Do we have to watch ads?
