In the meantime if everyone sprinkled torches liberally around their bases and caves.....

@CraftyMyner I say, wait for 1.14.3 to come out, see what it brings to the table, but, if it can't hold more than 5 people without lagging, we will have to switch or risk disappearing altogether.

Makes sense.

I understand what you are saying - i joined CM precisely because it was vanilla. But we are losing players fast at the moment partly because they find the lag intolerable and partly because of the no of bugs introduced with 1.14. With each update it has become harder and harder to support a reasonable number of players on the server at the same time without getting serious lag.

Whilst my heart will always be true vanilla, my brain has come to the conclusion that CM must seriously consider if it is time to convert to semi vanilla.

I would stress that even if we do use spigot to enhance performance there will be no plugins that change gameplay so it will still be the game as it is intended to be played and I believe Crafty can integrate all the current services and perks we enjoy into it so you wont actually notice any difference other than the lack of lag.

As for being a drop in the semi-vanilla ocean and not being special - i don't think it is only the vanilla element that makes this place special. The dedication to the integrity of the server by ensuring it is played fairly, the community, the staff and Crafty's skill in making things work all contribute to the specialness. I am sure if we went semi-vanilla we would soon be at the top of the listings.

Whilst I would not want to pressure anyone to vote either way, I do encourage folks to keep an open mind over the prospective change.

i think if we changed to spigot we would also be in their hands waiting for them to update after mojang does

Thank you for your application.

It's the same glitch as the villagers disappearing. Mojang claim to have sorted it in 1.14.2 which they are hoping to bring out this coming week.

Firstly let me clarify, that it was me that kicked you first for the name and this was not for being a racist name but for being far too close to that of a very well known terrorist group. We don't allow controversial names like this on the server. We have numerous instances of people coming on the server in slight variants of very offensive names. These can be very upsetting. Sadly the online world seems to have many people that think it is ok to put swastikas or come on as osama bin laden lookalikes. The arab skin with the green jacket that you have is typically used by these unpleasant people. Sorry but it is just too close to the terrorist group and i checked google translate and can find no translations at all of shebab.

I am sure if you aren't one of those people then if you think about it you will realise how insensitive it is.

Anyway whatever race, colour or creed you have you are very welcome on the server when you have changed your name and skin to something less offensive.
