  1. Hello all, we're going to be moving forward with a number of permission changes upon our services and reflected on the staff page and have contacted each individual to keep them informed of this change. Data for this was gathered from September 31st through December 5th.


     


    Based on activity, we'll be moving the following people from current staff to inactive:


    • Slide
    • joshuaherman
    • kednys
    • rtr69

    Additionally the following people will be moved from the inactive staff to our past staff section:


    • AceMarconi
    • cmchappell
    • Krapps
    • Mrloud15
    • TheRandomnatrix
  2. No offense totemo, but you are always an outlier in terms of resource gathering. I've spent hours mining from Ambrosia to Clearmont and the north east portal and other ways. This has barely produced enough rails for the distance. In fact I needed to ask Clearmont for iron to finish off the connection to them. It's far from not being bothered to play the game.

     

    I think everyone has a different experience - i've dug out one smallish sewer tunnel under haven (maybe 100x10x4) and got close to 3 stacks of ore. I'm actually enjoying not having an easy grinder setup again, i'm finding i'm rather excited when i find ores rather than just paving over them because they're inconvenient. It makes the game feel more worthwhile than just plopping an alt in an afk box.

  3. Come one come all!

     

    With the introduction of Minigames we've decided to run a new server-icon contest!

     

    In order to qualify:

    • You must submit a generic nerd.nu icon as well as an icon for each server: PvE (P / PvE), Creative ( C ), Minigames (M), Event (E), Chaos (X) for a total of 6 icons
    • The icons must be 64x64 pixels and in PNG format
    • The best icons will somehow include the nerd.nu glasses logo to be consistant with our branding
    • Icons do not need to be identical but sets that match will receive higher marks.
    • Icons MUST conform to community rules

    Submissions will be accepted for 1 month, at which point they will be evaluated by head admins and icons that meet the requirements will be put to a vote.

     

    Post your submissions below (imgur links are preferred)

     

    Good luck!!

  5. One comment I have about the theme: I've had to disable it because its sizing is weird and prevents me from expanding collapsed child comments when using RES (can't click on the expand [+] as it is behind another comment's collapse button).

     

     

    can you send me a screenshot of this so i know what it looks like? I dont seem to have this issue.

  6. Hey all. I've been working on some neat things that I'm hoping to bring into the /r/mcpublic stylesheet soon and while i'm doing it I thought it would be a good time to find out a few bits of information from everyone. 

     

    Please take a moment to fill out the survey, and if you have any additional comments please please please make them below.

     

    Thanks!

    - Silver

  7. Hey all,

     

    Thanks for updating the rules page, Silver! Just a thought... Maybe organize the rules list so that the "most important" rules are at the top, and then have sub-headings for some of the more specific rules?

     

    e.g.,

     

    Be Respectful and Civil Toward Your Fellow Players

    Be Respectful to the Server

    Do Not X-Ray/Cheat

    No Greifing

    No Trolling

     

     

    Then have headers like:

     

    Chat Rules:

    Building Rules:

    Redstone Rules:

    Harassment Policy:

    etc

     

     

    Seeing a list that long may make some potential players (or even veterans) hesitant to read through it.

     

    How are you envisioning the page looking with that sort of change compared to now? My worry is if we split it out more each category would have one item in it making the page 3x as long as it is currently.

  8. As a follow up to the Community meeting we have made some revisions to the rules page to help make things easier to read and help make finding information easier. 

     

    Please see nerd.nu/rules for the updated listing. Keep in mind NO RULES HAVE CHANGED, all rules that were in place are still in place with this update. All community rules will be found on the main page, with server specific rules being posted on a server page.

     

    If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please feel free to post them below or on the subreddit page. We will have this as an agenda item at the next community meeting.

  9. Voting is now closed! Thank you for your votes

     

    The winners of the lobby contest are:

    1. Heysofia 

    2. Schererererer 

    3. inerd/polarted/forever_a_steve 

     

    Skullhead2a and Haiku will receive honorable mention for making the final cut!

     

    Keep an eye on the forums/subreddit for more information on lobby switchover dates. We are planning to update the lobbies around June (2nd place) and September (3rd place)pending tech availability.  Thank you to everyone who participated!!

     

    (We'll open the contest world tonight for people to put 'finishing touches' on their builds and wrap up anything that needed finishing)

  10. On that note, in case my attempt thus far at derailing the topic back on track wasn't clear enough. How do you feel about each of the discussion points I've tried to summarise above?

    It seems to be a consensus that 2 plots are not enough so I gather there is a discussion to be had on another number or even as Hollifer has suggested; Some policy for allowing additional plots to be granted on a case by case basis.

    I believe this has been answered already. From what I've read it seems they started with a lower limit to encourage more users to build (which they are happy to revisit once the revision has been up for a bit) but ultimately that additional plots can be requested FROM CADMINS once a user has filled whatever the current system limit is.
