The lobbying and fallout at the time would have been ugly.

I agree with both of you. Are we limited to any particular set of IPB plugins, or will any free one be compatible?

This Vbulletin example is at the large and possibly excessive end of the scale of how this can be done. I was thinking more like the "Reputation given" box is automatically open, a little smaller and without the shadow. I don't know what you mean by reddit comments, threaded? I think the single thread we have now is best, the only off-shoots being the upvoting system.

Could we experiment with some way of having the list of people who upvoted a comment displayed differently? Some other forum systems have a list below each post, there may be several other IPB plugin options. This is for occasions where you upvote rather than reply +1 or restate a previous reply. I think I entirely avoid making +1 type comments, but often don't think to upvote. Or if I do upvote it's not noticed as much as when I post because I have a different view. It could be good to have someone's variety of public opinions more equally represented among themselves, regardless of how they expressed them.

Not everything PVP related with former S players is trying to undermine the possibility of future S. We're getting on with playing the game together where possible, please join us in that at least if not the town. Yup. On the south coast of the mesa, a nice boat ride away from SE portal.

There's some overlap. Look what we achieved in a few days, it did take some help from pve's helpful nature. Maybe this is the future. http://nerd.nu/maps/pve/live/?worldname=world&mapname=flat&zoom=6&x=414&y=64&z=2442

It doesn't have to be an S city, just an experiment Xkin and I build that could be scaled up if visitors and Xkin like it.

Uncehaven found a way. We have hope in you too.

I believe that's the vernacular of starting a new place on P. The idea of living in somewhat harmony requires different words.

They will, there's been a few posts over the years about the expanding possibilities. I have an idea, a combination of the pvp areas permitted in P and something village-like. We could work on it together and live there?

No. Admins do more complex or contentious modreqs. Some are deliberately left for moderators or admins more familiar with the tools, or only admins have access to the tools. It's gamification of a stat that no-one should really be boasting about. More time (measured in hours) spent on modreqs is equally bad as it would lead to burn out.

Both. A test run that ends as soon as it runs out of steam. This and being hard as you say in your previous reply are part of a trade off between what you want and what people not like you want. As far as I've seen a balance of both is needed. Maybe it's different for extra hard but I'd be wary of just assuming so for our own benefit.

What are the limits on size and nsfw-ness of texture packs? Have you seen any plugins to help with either issue?

@Dinosaur

Any interactions between those plugins? Or with other essential nerd plugins? Can you explain siege mode? How does the monster apocalypse plugin affect lag? Mob AI can be bad at times even in vanilla. Can you organise a test, we can be the test subjects. You say have a fps-friendly area near spawn - does that include player builds? What would you like to see in /help? The torch nerf seems a step too far - can that be disabled? What mod or combination of mods makes tnt more important? If extra hard mode plugin wasn't there would it still be so good, or still a lag problem? We'd need books upon books to explain all of this to players. Can you help/start write those? How many warnings would you want to give people using hacks? What is reasonable for something fixed with the regen tool - normal griefing-length procedure and bans? I really like your suggestion to kick "toxicities", but only if that is purely at the staff's discretion and we don't have endless arguments about what is or isn't toxic. MylineagePVP sounds interesting. Maybe we could have a discussion about using that by itself in another test event. I'd want to do some testing with it, so that say someone who is only on to PVP can't just spend a few hours at spawn killing everyone, and the rest of the time killing mobs at world border/grinder. Also I'd want arenas exempt. I'm positive and looking forward to this. I see all my concerns as solvable.

One main reason why I think that condition was defeated on survival is that you were each to your own, if there were any public grinders on any of the revs I was on they were never shared non-discriminately ie to me. Coming back to P where the most private I've ever seen a grinder is iron grinders where you get 100% of the loot while you stand there and the private town chests get it the rest of the time. I only point out the difference because of what some people may have got used to.

Multitask, or switch it to auto-kill and afk. One skele grinder I made last year was auto kill with a fishing hut, so I went afk for hours and came back to several good books and other loot as well as a lot of bones and arrows.
