I actually really like Unce's idea instead of the proposed system which would slowly eat away or add to your balance when you're PvPing. This might add a bit more of a challenge if you want to trade using this currency, and doesn't necessarily mean you need lose anything if you die either. Quick thing though: If we're using a shop command, couldn't we just have the bank inside the shop? That would kill two birds with one stone in my mind, lol.

I think it should be standard procedure to make most admin posts regarding subjects which are no longer relevant or important (within a reasonable time period) to be made public - regardless of people requesting that they are made public. I'd personally like to see more posts moved to the public archives for users to read to gain an important perspective behind how controversial subjects were discussed and how procedures were determined for personal reference when discussing said subjects. For those reasons, I think that a request system would be a good idea, but I also would like to see more things moved from private discussion areas into public archives more often.

lol. He's using an unusable biome (an Ocean from what I'm seeing in the picture) to build a larger project. Were you planning on using this biome prior to him claiming it? Probably not. Also the English part is irrelevant and could be offensive to certain members of this community - just because he isn't vocal in chat doesn't mean that he won't respond to something you /mail him. ...Why are you complaining then? If it's not protected - simply marked out so people don't build something there by accident, then why is this even an issue in the first place? I would find it easier to understand if he had claimed a huge chunk of land and protected it, but he's merely made a small border around land he planned on using for his structure. (edited because the quote boxes were acting weird for some reason - ignore)

Could we also get access to //center? I think it might help when trying to determine where to begin building something in a large area without having to physically count everything.

I'd like to bump this as a reminder that this event will take place tonight at 9:00 PM EST. We're hoping to see everyone there! :D

You can't really take a ban up with a higher member of the community when the person who banned you holds the highest position in the community, but I definitely agree with what you're saying here. From what I understand (and from my brief interactions with Abroosky), he's still interested in playing here, and he's disappointed that he was permanently banned based on guilt by association. I think it's very unfortunate that the Head Admins are not willing to allow him the ability to prove that he can remain a productive member of this community, even though it's (falsely) presumed (using outdated evidence which had no context with nerd.nu) that he was allowing permanently banned players to access the server through an additional account.

Jchance, I have a question- Who is acting like being called toxic is a badge of honor? While I can see where this may appear to be true in some cases, I disagree that all players who use toxic in a banter fashion like to act as though it's something they're proud about.

What's the prize for winning?

Thanks for the positive feedback! We're looking forward towards hosting these often, since last night went pretty well. Feedback wise (for Darb), I think we should try to limit the number of fights to roughly three or so (so maybe a 1v1 kitted tournament, 1v1 BYOG tournament and a 4v4 kitted tournament - not including any FFA's we may do of course).

Just a reminder that this event will still be tonight at 9 PM EST (on Survival). We hope to see you there!

That page is/was* protected to prevent griefers from spamming random shit on them. With that being said, I don't think that's an issue anymore, so unprotecting it (letting registered users edit it) would be feasible in my mind as long as the information on that page remains the same as before.*it was originally protected back in 2011 or so IIRC

What's the plan regarding events and arenas? Are players going to be helping with these events? Will players have the ability to host SAL (or separate player ran arena leagues)? Also since it seems we'll probably be in chaos for a while, what's the plan regarding chaos arenas?

Sounds fun - will you be announcing specific dates for when this will take place? Some prize suggestions I can come up with right off the bat include (like you said previously) premium building plots in spawn city, and possibly some kind of sign recognizing the winner. Preferably we keep extra items from an event of this nature off of the survival servers, but I'm sure if you offered a stack of quartz or something for winning you'd get some attendees/participants. I'm excited to see this take place!

I'm guessing it will be up for the rest of the month at most, since the creation of a new map and (if S is going to be using 1.8 next revision) updating everything to work would take a couple of weeks. I'd personally like to see an arena league with arenas hosted every Friday or Saturday with the winner of the league (the user with the most points) getting something in spawn next revision, similar to how SAL worked a while back.

Eh, I'm in disagreement. This would make dieing of natural causes (drowning) easier, and that isn't the point of a PvP arena - the point of a PvP arena is to fight people, not to run around trying not to drown. I'd personally like to see at least three arenas pasted onto this chaos map: A classic PvP arena (very similar to the one I used for my arenas on Revision 27). A maze arena (with larger hallways - use four block hallways instead the traditional 2). Maybe a unique arena or a KOTH/KOTV arena accessible from spawn where we can host occasional events). I'm looking forward towards 1.8 Chaos - I'm hoping to see these arenas occur regularly!

Wouldn't a less vanilla PvP server be better than an empty Vanilla one?

Can we just set a revision ending date when starting a rev/in the middle of a revision (for all servers, or possibly Survival and Creative specifically)? I think when we set a one-three month deadline, it makes the revision more interesting since you have an idea of when it's going to end, and you can make plans on whether or not you plan to play accordingly.

I like this one

Wouldn't it be more logical to just change the name of the existing group if it came down to it? I'm not really convinced the steam group needs to have it's name changed, since the subreddit is still /r/MCPublic, and the IRC channel is still #redditmc after-all. I'm sure if you guys asked d3north nicely to change the name of his group so the "official" group could be renamed to nerdnugaming, that would more than likely be feasible, and would minimize the drama.

.....what does Uncehaven have to do with this discussion? I'm also assuming you have literally no clue what rubberbanding is, because it has to do with latency, not NoCheatPlus.

I won't reply to everything, but here's some minor clarification: I'd assume that you're in a timezone which would be nighttime for both the United States and Europe, which could account for the lower player-numbers. I recall there being nearly 25-35 players on last night for the arena GizzleTinks and I hosted. Survival's spawns are simple and functional (I'd say even the one we have right now serves its functional purpose, regardless of the hot tub part), which is why they're almost identical to their predecessors (of course this excludes revision 26's spawn due to the fact we used a ring road/random spawn system and that was an arena). See #2 - People don't typically play when they're asleep. I'd like to see the rubberbanding be fixed, since we had multiple instances during the arena where we weren't able to PvP because of server lag. Also, the hot tub is a really creepy thing, and I'm unsure why something of that nature would be included in a Survival spawn, so I'd have to agree with you on that portion.

Yes, please. I would really like the ability to use other people's buildings in my builds. I think that there should be some sort of restriction to prevent abuse (eg: you can't copy an entire mountain and then paste it in on a 1x1 region), but this would be a good addition in my mind, and would also let us build large cities easier if we could simply copy someone else' buildings.

I can see how this would've been an issue in the past, especially regarding land disputes and player reports (which would need to remain private) making this an illogical re-addition, especially if this has been attempted before. Unless anyone has anything to add, this can be closed.

I can see how these examples can be an issue, but I'd like to note that these can also become issues on the other servers which have the same portals. Unless survival users specifically target people (I couldn't say I have had too much experience with this, having never been an admin here), but I doubt that this would get abused any more than it is currently abused on the other servers.
