I posted this in the clan section hoping to find others, but I suppose it fits more so here seems it's not exactly a clan, but more so a group of like-minded people who just want to enjoy the game with others. I'm going to remain strict on one rule and one rule only; Age. Most everything else is up in the air, and I'm open for suggestions.
I'd also like to note: No building or any sort or gathering/mining has been done yet on this server. We will all be starting fresh. I am new to renting servers, so there's still more I need to learn as far as control goes over the panels on my servers (I rent from various hosters), especially seems my main host went down (Brohoster) for good.
We are certainly welcoming newcomers to the game as well. A few of us have only been playing for around a month or two, so if you haven't been around long; that's totally cool. Basic rules are: be 20+ and don't be an ass. Pretty simple huh? Further information is found below... I apologize if it's a lot to read.
=- I've recently thought of the idea to band together with a small group of people to play Minecraft with. As of right now, I have ideas floating in my head as to what I'd like the server to be like, and the people we play with. Everything is up in the air as of right now to be quite honest, but I do have both a server, and Teamspeak server I'm renting, and I've been playing with a couple RL friends recently on here as well, and I've decided why not play with more?
=- I hate to throw out rules here, considering I'd like to find people around my age (25), whom of which are all adults, so I feel it unnecessary to baby sit people and hold everyone's hand; but here are a few I can think of.
1) No Griefing - I simply won't tolerate it.
2) Age: 20+
3) Cursing: Not only allowed, but encouraged. Well, not so much encouraged, but we're adults, sometimes we say adult things. You won't get in trouble for swearing or have to worry about someone's parents listening in.
4) No destroying another person's property (see griefing)
5) Be respectful of others in the server. Hopefully there won't be an issue here.
Will add more if needed, but honestly, with the right group of people, I shouldn't have to worry, considering these are basic rules many follow (minus the cursing). And I certainly don't want to have to ban anyone. So if you're a douchebag, **** off.
=- We will be using a White-list.
=- I'm cautious about giving everyone OP status. I do have a second server for building if interested, but I'll worry about that later. As far as OP on this server, I'll think about it. It will be handed out to myself of course, and my RL friends, and possibly one or two others. I want this to be as clean as possible.
=- As far as what the server will be used for exactly, I'm honestly not quite sure yet. I personally would like to play SMP, build stuff with our own materials, mess around in the Nether; the basics. What I REALLY would love to do is, make it into an Aether server if/when a multiplayer comes out for that... That, will be awesome.
=- As far as mods go, I'm open to ideas. I was briefly posting with someone and was suggested mods like the Death Chest and Elevator mods; which are perfectly fine to be added in. I checked them both out and they seem good.
=- I'm also open to suggestions here, either it be mods, or the overall focus of the server and the people within it. Like I said, I'm not 100% sold on that, so I'm all ears.
=- I also want to point out, this isn't exactly a "clan" per se, but more of a small group of people, "adults," that just want to kick back and play the game and not have to worry about saying something that could be offensive, or not allowed elsewhere. Obviously we should all respect one another, whoever we may be, age/sex/race/religion etc; it's all good here.
=- As far as activity goes... We're not expecting people to be on 24/7 7 days a week playing in this server. We all have lives outside the game to some extent, so you won't be removed if you didn't play that day, or days. And if you enjoy other servers/games, that's cool too.
=- Numbers. Another thing I'm not quite sure about is how many people I'd like to have join us. Currently, there are 3 of us, possibly 4. Out of the 3 of us (myself and my RL friends), I'm the most active; on every day, sometimes up late; depends on school/work schedule. The other 2... they get on when they can, usually at night.
- I'll be speaking to those few people to get a rough estimate as to how many people we want in.
So for right now, if you're interested, post here with your:

Possible Mod Suggestion(s) for server:
How many players you'd like to have white-listed:
Any other suggestion(s):
-----------------
Feel free to add any additional information or concerns you may have. I'll be around to answer them, view posts and check on the mods if any are suggested.
=- Again, as of now I'd like to keep this a SMP server, regular mining ****, kill ****, build **** server, though as said; nothing is set in stone. I'm welcome to suggestions. I will speak with the others to see what they want to do as well.
Possible Mod Suggestion(s) for server: lwc, and any anti-grief mod.
How many players you'd like to have white-listed: A small dedicated fun server with no more than like 10 players.
Any other suggestion(s): If anything comes up, I'll suggest it in-game.
Side note: This is exactly the kind of server I've been looking for. I'm tired of little ****ing kids flaming about the most insignificant bull. Add me as soon as possible. I'd love to jump in and help out any way I can.
Possible Mod Suggestion(s) for server: Long list of ideas, I'm a server owner myself w/ 20+ plugins on mine (running one for 7 months now). Lockette is my favorite "lock" mod and its super simple & lean on the server resources. Can talk more in game over what sorts of directions you could go.
How many players you'd like to have white-listed: Just me =) Unless you mean...potential server size then I'd say no more than 10.
Any other suggestion(s):
I want to join a mature server that I don't have to worry about 24/7. I'd love to be in a small group of gamers building neato stuff. Just to be a miner, having fun. =D Hopefully you'll want me around.
I would like join a small group, not a ton coming in and out. I'll mine like crazy and set up a chest of supplies where the other players can help themselves.
I tried a server and it seemed like people were constantly coming in and out. Also, they had mined away all the trees and didn't replant. So trying to start with nothing was near impossible. Anyway, 20 minutes into being there, the connection was lost and I couldn't get back in.
Age: 21
IGN: gpoplawski
Possible Mod Suggestion(s) for server: If you don't already have it, some form of chest protection
How many players you'd like to have white-listed: I like 20 for a number but just keep it small
Any other suggestion(s): I like the way your doing things, no further suggestions at this time.
I assume you will PM me if i get white-listed, hope to see you in-game. :smile.gif:
-First, ambush; don't worry about being new. I'm still relatively new as well, more so to server managing than the actual game, but it's all good.
-I agree with you Blewdragon, I would like to see the same names and players on the server, and not just flushing people in and out.
-I like the mod/plugin suggestions. The lockette one is definitely going up for extra precaution. I'm still new to what mods most people use and like, but I was speaking to someone else about possibly joining and was mentioned an elevator mod and a death chest mod. I think those 2 could also be added.
-I don't want TOO many mods and plugins, but I want enough so we're all happy. I'd like to try to keep this as clean as possible, but like I've said, I am always open to suggestions, because I really don't quite know what is out there.
-It seems the magic number is 10 or 12 from what I've been seeing from others. That's about where I'd like it as well. Obviously, all of us won't be on at the same time all the time, so I may white-list a few additional people given there won't be a full server 24/7. My RL friends are on at odd times, usually nights, and one is whipped by his gf so it's hard to get him on for any length of time.
-In any event, if the server ever does get full, I can always allow more in, upgrade RAM, etc. But for now, I'll get the core of us set, and we'll see how that goes.
-And yes, I'll PM people. I just got an e-mail that the new server is finally up, so I'll have to mess around with it and learn the new panel, seems I'm really only familiar with Brohoster / TCAdmin.
-So far, the responses are good. The other thread I made I found 0 people 20+... that had me worried. Thank you.
How soon until it ends up being 24/7? I'm asking because I'd like to be able to hop in when I can, not having to mesh my schedule with the server schedule. :wink.gif:

It's actually up right now, on a dedicated host. I just need to scramble together some mods that have been suggested and mess with the config and test it out and make sure all is well.
I really can't wait to play on a fresh server. One thing I don't like, is massively built servers with 2 people on... Myself included. So if we can keep this server operational, fun, and not too crowded; I'd be a very loyal client.
I did think of a few other things that could be a good addition:
- No fire spread (but if you have an antigrief mod, this doesn't matter.)
- Perhaps a formation of a clan?
- Server radio? (for music obviously. DJ takes requests, also gets special privileges on the server.)
- Maybe Youtube videos? (of anything from "Let's Play's", to "Server Trailers".)
I'm open for anything really, I just want to see this server be as good as I hope it will be.
The only "main" mods I'd suggest is the WorldEdit/WorldGuard combo to stop fire-spread and (if your interested) creeper block damage = off. Those two were always the server 'eater of worlds' if those weren't on.
After that permissions works good to build up some structure so that people can't accidentally use server-killing commands without knowing the true damage potential. That and quite a few plugins require it. (Permissions 2.7 is my absolute fave).
Commandbook is great for a basic 'set' so you get your /spawn, /home, /tp for mods, /item for mods, /time for mods, etc. The good stuff that makes it easier to run.
Lockette for chest protection (users just drop a sign and it auto-protects the chest), no commands or DB's or anything.
Tomb & Cenotaph for death management. Tomb allows you to make a 'tombstone' in your house to let you TP to your point of death without totally losing your death chest. Its also private to the specific user. Cenotaph basically puts up a chest & sign to save all your stuff from burning or vanishing from your loss point.
After that little set...its all "hey that's neat" style plugins. Imho that is.
Possible Mod Suggestion(s) for server: None atm, smp vanilla is fun as it is, though CraftBook and plugins that add more useful content to the game are pretty interesting
How many players you'd like to have white-listed: 20ish sounded good
Any other suggestion(s): Not really, would depend on how the server comes along
Thanks for the suggestions, as well as the PM Mukrakiish.
Have a few plugins already installed and working, going to see about picking some of those up you suggested Mukr, because they do sound useful. I keep being told the best spot to find mods and plugins is here, but it's so damn difficult it seems to find them in that section, along with using the "Search" feature. Google is proving to be the best source.
Possible Mod Suggestion(s) for server: Aether would be fktardly awesome if they come out with it. Some kind of currency system and professions would be nice. I kinda like the idea of people having professions and sticking to em. Like you can be a famer and a baker or a miner and tool crafter.
How many players you'd like to have white-listed:10-15
Any other suggestion(s): Nope. I guess there are alot of us who are tired of dealing with children. Looks like the post has gotten a lot of feedback. :3
Yes, Aether would be awesome Lyz. I've addressed that once it comes out for multiplayer, I'd want nothing more than to turn the server into that as well. I'm trying not to play it for Singleplayer in hopes a multiplayer comes out soon for it.
The whole profession/currency thing is something I was interested in doing too when I first heard there was such a function for MC. The only thing there that concerns me is, what is someone goes MIA? Or people that don't come on as often as others? I like the idea and that's something I'd like to do as well, but we'll see what the others think.
First, I'd like to get it all up and running to send out messages.
Second, as of now, I'm pretty content with the posts, people and suggestions already made here.
I'm basically just trying to figure out how to set up all these plugins for the server. Ran into a couple problems but fixed them already. Just moving onto the configs for each. Getting a little confused with WorldEdit/WorldGuard to be honest.
I sent you a message back Brandon. If we hook up on IM/TS I can help you get this thing into shape in less than an hour with all the basic plugins running =D
