A wild map has been spotted! Need to check in with the creator to see if theyre making changes. Discussion of theme and spawn ideas Discussion of gameplay options Player made dungeons are coming along great!! MORE ARE NEEDED :nomnomnom:

east-west tunnel should loop from one to the other + north-south tunnel should loop from one end to the other (oops) While these are interesting suggestions at this time we are not looking to modify the lobby. Possibly up entity cramming in the lobby? Not usually an issue but with the p reset... Entity cramming was secretly increased to 200 on the lobby during the p launch, hopefully this will fix lobby deaths!

Kirstae has changed her mind and has accepted. Permissions will be set up and training scheduled.

You are unbanned.

You will be unbanned after 6pm EDT tomorrow (wednesday) when I get home from work. Please take this time to reflect on your interactions with others in-game, your next instance of this will be met with much harsher consequences.

Thank you for your appeal. Apologizing for “[your] comments being considered harassment” however is not an acceptable response. Harassment will not be tolerated on our servers in any form and you have a long history of attacking others which appeared to have stopped but sadly seems to have resurfaced. Please refresh yourself on our rules page located at nerd.nu/rules and explain what rule you have broken and how. At that point I will determine the length of your ban.

Defiex has stepped down and her permissions have been updated to moderator.

Please add your vote for king_of_queso - this poll will stay open for two weeks until Sunday 25th March or when 75% of staff have voted (36 people) whichever comes first If a staff member votes 'no', it is expected that their accompanying comments have been previously made known either within the feedback thread or directly to head admins. If not, we will get in contact with the staff member to get more detailed reasoning. If this vote is successful: We will contact the player to ensure they would like to join staff. If they would: We will contact techs to update player permissions in game, and update forum, slack etc. permissions across our services. We will arrange basic training and inform server admins when new moderators are ready for additional server-specific training. We will move this voting post to public mod forums, and inform the playerbase via the Head Admin changelog. If this vote is unsuccessful, or the player declines, we will inform staff within the post, and move it to the private closed nomination forum.

Trooprm32 (now Trooprm64) has been reinstated as a moderator.

flame wings effects are neat, but you know what would be nearter? FLYING with flame wings. as stated in previous suggestion responses we are not looking to implement elytra on the current lobby. Where elytra are appropriate to the build they will be considered. Submitted on PvE: start of this video as minigame - sphere randomly filled with air or TNT, some creepers start in the middle, your score is how many TNT you retrieve after <time> The minigames server does not currently support this gametype but we would be glad to pass it on to redwall_hp for consideration

@Sir_Didymus - King of the Tater Thieving Farmers of the Northern Quarter. In response to your kind inquiry: Whoever wants to decimate that lovely nether should be strung up by their netherregions! I think having full gear very fast leads to people being "done" faster. That being said it depends on the users end-game. I think having a custom spread across biomes would be a great deviation from vanilla that would make things more interesting for certain. I don't tend to stay long in the nether, since i know it hurts hunters because of the way spawning works. To me its either a place to hunt or a "point a to point b" method of travel and that's it. Unless the spawning bit isn't so severe i don't know that anything would change my opinion of it, regardless of how lovely it is. Sadly i have nothing *but* problems. Unless they're fixed i don't think i'll be using rails at all. Its not worth dying just to get somewhere. Love, Queen Sunset, Master of all Shelving and Shelving Accessories!
