  1. SMP Client mods.

    in Minecraft General

    Posted

    I'm not really sure of the point of this thread. If you're asking for armour and effect HUDs to be allowed, I believe they already are. Other than that, I think that all of the mods that are and aren't allowed are pretty clearly stated, and there is no need to change them.

     

    I don't think we need to look at every mod made to say whether it should or shouldn't be allowed. However, if you are unsure whether the mod(s) you are using are allowed, always check first. It's pretty simple, and far less hassle and work than it seems you are making it.

     

    S has a specific set of mods that are allowed, the rest are banned. http://redditpublic.com/wiki/Client_mods

  3. What we often deal with in Ban Appeals

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    The ban appeals have been...lacking recently. 

     

    However, I enjoy seeing staff members being previously banned (Amaranth): http://nerd.nu/archives/index.php?p=/discussion/941/amaranthus-ban-appeal

     

    And, "OMG THE MODS ARE UNFAIR": http://nerd.nu/archives/index.php?p=/discussion/2206/i-believed-that-bhrossman-only-bans-player-and-not-deal-with-the-appeal.

     

    And, my all time favorite: http://nerd.nu/archives/index.php?p=/discussion/2684/alcojew-needs-to-get-that-big-stick-out-of-his-ass

     

    On a side note: I get bored, and go through old appeals...

  5. Question Time with the Survival Admin(s)

    in The Archives

    Posted

    I'd probably point you towards the response I gave earlier in this thread about our community, but honestly just remembering to treat each other with the most basic form of decency would go a long way and it's something i'd like to see everyone do. I know a lot of us get caught up in the atmosphere that comes with a combat environment, and I think we'd all do better just to take a step back and realise what we're saying sometimes. The server as a whole actually has a wonderful community, but this isn't quite as prominent as the few that promote and engage in the typically more destructive behaviour that has become associated with Survival. It's become in some ways more of a running joke to be unnecessarily hateful towards each other, as well, which I feel has increased somewhat as a result of the negative rep we all get. To outsiders though, a conversation between two people (e.g. myself and N00ble_6) where they're insulting each other can seem unnecessarily harsh, where in reality they're probably good friends just mucking around with each other. The toxicity certainly exists within particular players, and typically these are the more vocal of the community, but they're not restricted to just Survival. I'd love to see a change in attitude across all three of our servers, and for everyone just to remember that we're all humans at the end of the day and to treat each other as such.

     

     

    +1, haha thanks. I've actually played on S slightly more than normal the last few weeks, they aren't all bad...(I can't believe I just admitted this)

  8. SMP Client mods.

    in Minecraft General

    Posted

    From the rules:

     

    Players using modifications to change gameplay may be asked to stop, kicked, or banned with little or no warning depending on the severity of the situation. This includes, but is not limited to: noclip, invincibility, speed modification, xray/ore-detection, and duping hacks. (Note that Survival has its own list of approved client mods; see below.)
     
    If the mod does NOT modify gameplay to give you an unfair advantage, and you AREN'T playing on S, then you should be fine.

  9. Question: Lag Issues

    in Minecraft General

    Posted

    As the majority of the playerbase probably knows, serverside lag has been a HUGE issue this revision, even more so (as far as I can tell) than other revisions past.

    I absolutely love the playerbase that is here. P is one of the most active servers I've ever seen. S is still a blast, even though I suck at PVP. Its probably the only reason I haven't left at this point.

    So with that, I'd like to ask the Admins one thing: What can we do to help?

  11. IAMA zifnab AMA

    Explain the origin of your name? I've always wondered.

     

     

    'Zifnab' was a wizard in The Death Gate Cycle. He was known for being slightly eccentric, not being able to follow conversations well, and impersonating other wizards and people (including Gandalf, Fizban from Dragonlance, James Bond, and the wizard of Oz). I have no idea why I picked it, I used to use 'solembum9912' beforehand (the cat from Eragon). The 06 really doesn't mean anything, I've been using it since long before then, it was just arbitrary numbers.

     

     

     

    If a Zifnab were an animal, what would it look like?

     

    'zifnab'

    Probably a giant rabbit. With fangs. And claws. And laser eyes. Oh, and that dehydration gun from Megamind.
