I'm happy to announce I have joined the team of OP's! I look forward to making the server as great as it can be moving into the reset. Thanks to Gaige, bird and the rest of ya for this opportunity
I can't wait for the reset. 1.8 is such a huge update that mojang named it the BOUNTIFUL update. There are so many wonderful things added that I believe that alone is worth the reset.
That being said. Maverrrick and I would like to help build a spawn town that is being used frequently. I am thinking we hold weekly or monthly events in town to have discussions, play games, and enjoy the great community we have here. Also that way the pretty buildings we create aren't just sitting idle, but are holding get togethers and events. I am developing some interesting things that could help, everything from redstone machines that help outfit the new people with armor and basic necessities to a poker system so we can get together and play little games or tournaments if ya like. Also, Mav and I are building, and will build in the new world, a large underground base with mob spawners, fun machines, puzzles, mazes, etc. so I think a new world will give us all a chance to create more fun things for everyone to do, as well as set up some areas where people can test their mettle at night in quest style mini adventures. Just some ideas.
If it will reset the dragon, maybe we could make that an event, where everyone gets together after a week or two, and we all go kill the dragon together. I would enjoy that.
Not sure what y'all think, but my vote is to go for a new world, with 1.8 rockin, and a calendar where we can schedule times to get together and enjoy this great game together with all it has to offer. Even without bukkit or another addon system, I'd rather be in 1.8.

That... That's BRILLIANT! What an amazing idea! Props to you, good sir! I would gladly participate in any and all events scheduled, provided school doesn't get in the way.

I have a solution that I ignored in my last major post because I didn't think it fit with the vanilla theme well.
However...
Now that a 1.8 reset is in the possibility, I believe we should make a world border that stretches 2000m2 (each block is a meter). Hear me out.
Most people are saying that everybody will spread apart again like what happened in Brave New World. However, with the border, this is limited quite a bit. In fact, the total area of the nether will be 250m2 (n = o/8)- If we all work together, a central hub could be made not unlike Brave New World but the tunnels will be quite a bit shorter. In fact, two people on opposite sides of the border that both start from their rails to the central hub at once could only take a short amount of time to meet up, or double that time if one person stays put and the other goes to them. I doubt people will live RIGHT on the border so that makes it even better! A limited border will also help lag issues with exploring chunks. But there are couple issues that might come up. For example, what if we use Large Biomes? Could the whole border potentially just be a few types? No! Why? I have a proposition. A YouTuber named sZpeddy (https://www.youtube.com/user/sZPeddy) has recently been doing a series about worlds that have all biomes within a 2000m2 radius (the reason I picked it) he found with a seed finder program. There are going to be 20 of these out by the time he's done! That's a lot of variation. Depending on what Becca, Bird, and Gaige want in a map (I think bird might pick tbh) and what the players want in a map, anything is possible, really. Also, the border can be expanded to the discretion of the administrators if needed
Just the ability to do whatever you want, when and how you want it c:
A few sentences about why we should let you on to the server:
I suppose it comes down to myself being a friendly, nice person. I love the game and the community, and want to be a part of this server (and it's community!) I think i could offer a lot in the friendliness as well c:
I don't like limiting the map. One of my favorite parts about minecraft is exploring long ways away from my home. We all want to agree to be closer. We get that. I think it is unwise to let just anyone build at spawn, as it can make it confusing and ugly (who wants to navigate through a neighborhood of crappy wood cubes to find wilderness). I do think we should create some towns around spawn where people can congrigate and work together on their projects. I myself plan on starting just such a city as soon as new map is live. Any and all of you are welcome to join us! I know I am new to this server, but if you read my application, you will see that I am awesome and I guarantee out town will be amazing and lots of fun! We hope you are a part of it!

Uh-Uh. Bad idea. If people really want to live close together, they'd LIVE CLOSE TOGETHER. And on BraveNewWorld, people did live close together. Accell, the Vale, and a number of towns all had 3+ residents. In Accell, there were over 10! Forcing people to live in close proximity of each other isn't fun. People should form towns because they WANT to form towns, not because the world size is so small that it's a necessity. I've always made it a purpose to not join servers with a border, and this is one of many reasons why.
I really like this idea, as when I got on the server, the dragon was already dead and I didn't get to experience that. The only problem I foresee is builds or farms that people make in the end. But yeah, that would actually give me a reason to go to spawn!
Oh good, grief, please no. The main reason I joined thesever is so that I could play multiplayer with cateye12. Meeting all the wonderful people on the server came after that. We usually go fairly far out as both Cat and I have had problems with building close to server spawns in the past, and thus we Like to venture our pretty far. In fact I would usually in a server avoid towns like the plague, as they limit what I can do, The founding of the vale was an accident really, albeit a happy one. Basically my point is this, not all of us want to be completely involved in the community and be hermits, and having a world border could seriously limit that.
I don't think you understand minecraft worlds. They are supposed to be thousands of blocks away. Why limit people? This is a vanilla server. Just stay close to spawn if you don't want to be far out. Do you realize how fast the server would fill up with crap with a limit like that? If you examine my builds on other servers you would see I usually use over 2000 block area just for my builds. If you don't want to travel, join a cheaty server and warp around until your heart is content. The rest of us here would like to play vanilla survival

What you like best about Minecraft!: The ability of playing with friends.
A few sentences about why we should let you on to the server: I am a mature person. I only say things to act cool. But i will be very mature. I plan on being a nice player. I want to record this onto my channel so I can have more subs to keep me motivated. I had an SMP called Chaotic but it shutdown. I was a very good player. I am experienced with crafting and other things in Minecraft. Thanks
what I like about mc: I like towns and community's and legitness and mining, gotta dig dem holes yea
working mic: yes
why should u let me onn the server? We'll I love community servers that are vanilla with no raiding or griefing and there quite hard to find these days consodering like they went near extinct years ago and I'm a nice friendly person who will help out peeps any day xD my name is Cninga8 and uh email me at [email protected]

I made a strawpoll for you to voice an opinion on what biome you want! http://strawpoll.me/2694482
