Not sure why I was banned, but I just wanted to say I hold no ill will towards any of you, and while I'm sure you all despise MR I want to wish the best of luck to you and your new server. I never meant for anything to be offensive, again not sure why I was banned, but that's besides the point. I (proudly) play on MR, and I wanted to make a first and final post: I will miss you all, and hope that you don't harbor any ill will towards me. I am not asking for an unban, because I'm taking this opportunity to split was peacefully and part ways without dragging on the drama.
I believe the survival games plugin was discontinued but we could do something like survival games as an event.
I'm actually working on a pvp world that will replace the survival games.. It's going to take awhile, as I need to buy the supplies/get creative whenever i can build there.
I've not really played on many servers - what sort of events do others run? Competitive builds is the one mentioned earlier and Adagn1 brought up challenges.
By the way Adagn1, I think your sig has too many 'e's in 'friendly'.
Cool, Maybe themes would be a cool idea? Since you Have desert already maybe add another arena(s) with different themes like jungle, forest, mountain etc
PVP arena looks awesome. Whats that in the middle? An alien spaceship crash? I cant wait to die in there
As for the multi-biome idea, Adrian, that does sound cool, and I might try it, but I have attempted to divide each team into their own respective terrain advantages. For example, you can see the red team has nether pits/fire, blue team has snow forts and a palm tree with water surrounding it, the yellow team has desert ruins and cacti, and the green team has a mossy old fort with trees and dispensors. Your idea is a bit more difficult, as having a mountain in an arena isn't easy, but maybe we could have like 4 different arenas for the occasion.
In the middle, Littlefoot, is a pit where all of the elements of each team (cacti, nether, etc.) meet up, making it dangerous, but the reason you'd want to go in the middle is to get beacon perks, and maybe I'll implement some bonus items of some kind.
Thanks for the feedback
Hey guys,
as you might know, I just posted that I quit MR, and would like to play here. If you don't know me, I am Armbreaker21. So I ask you, what sets this server apart from others? What would be a good reason to join, even though I probably will anyway.

Armbreaker, I saw your post in the other forum. Thanks for the kind word, and for the honest commentary. You are welcome to come see the server. If you like it, and feel like it would be a good fit for you, you are welcome to join us.
I will say this much: this server is filled with babby's who either can't take a joke, do not fulfill promises, and label any critiscm as "harassment"
Most of this applies to one admin, named Snailie. She is a teenager who wants to be an adult, and is filled with hate and bitterness. I leave you with one last parting message, Snailie: YOU'RE A POOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You shouldent been so rude and you might wouldent been banned.
I'd like to edit my former post. The storm is over on Haventerrace and Mineresort. Me and tschagg had a talk. We both realize that there needs to be peace in order for development. I'm posting this on the MineResort and HavenTerrace threads. I ask of everyone, though, to make as good decisions in life as you can. "If you feel comfortable on Mineresort, stay and watch it grow. If you wish to stay on HavenTerrace, we'd love to have you." Jaz said that. He realizes, I realize, tschagg realizes, fluffy realizes and everyone else realizes that this storm has ended. It's time to watch both servers grow and thrive. Bashing or insulting anyone from another server has consequences. They must be faced, and I hope that everyone will learn a lesson from their experiences.

What irritates me most about this is that he goes and gets his panties in a bunch over this. Declares war, stomps around, cries "wolf," deletes everything I ever made in his stupid server, then has the nerve to say, "Ok guys, enough's enough. I want peace now." Then he goes and makes that last little stab at me through wolfmaster. I hope he rots somewhere for all of this.

I'm posting this on MR forums as well. Please read.
Jaz, WTH? Skie went to a tremendous effort to negotiate peace with tschagg, and you throw it away! You've forgotten what really matters: the users. The people of both our servers are tired of fighting this stupid flame war where we just end up accusing and hating each other, and for what? Because of some little conflict between two men, who were once the most respected members of our community, who decided to encourage us to hate the other? The users of both MR and HT can make their own decisions, we don't want to be forced into a battle we can never win because all we are doing is hurting each other emotionally. Skie went to a great effort to try and create peace, and thought you are still mad at tschagg, we all have to learn to lose our grudges. Forgive and forget, let the past be the past and put your quarrels behind you. All this fight is doing is scaring away new members from both our servers, and as I stated, it's the users that matter. Not some stupid fight. Not a MR vs. HT brawl of emotional turmoil. NOT YOUR PERSONAL SELFISH NEEDS TO SEEK REVENGE ON EACH OTHER. This is to you also tschagg. The users of both servers are sick and tired of this conflict, which you both insist on continuing. Just stop it, there's nothing else to say, but to ask you to stop it.
Tschagg and I have already talked. The road is being mended.
Good. I'm glad to see you both can put aside your differences for the good of the users. This stupid war is over. I am also happy to announce I am being considered to become a moderator on the server section of the forums. And if I do, and anyone so much as sparks a reason to fight again, I swear, you wil be punished. There is no reason to fight anymore. It's over. I can rest easy knowing that.
Happy to see things calm down between the two servers but I'm somewhat troubled by the hypocrisy here. BDK, it was only a week since you proudly announced you'd been banned for purposefully visiting MR to spout a highly offensive homophobic slur so maybe you could dial down all this 'how could you?!' rhetoric?
Since when did I do that? I just want this conflict to end so we can go back to our normal lives. I don't wish anything bad upon the users of MR. If they want to play there, that's their choice. I never cussed out tschagg. I simply stated why I was going to leave and left. Sure, I may have been a bit harsh at first, but wasn't everyone? We all make mistakes and it's our responsibility now to correct them.

BDK, I just checked the minecraftforum rules. I don't think it's breaking any rule to have an argument via the forums. If you do end up becoming a moderator, be mindful of what disciplinary actions you take.
No, this isn't a build for anything, I just did it on a whim and thought I'd post it anyway.
I mean, who hasn't wanted an underwater hen house at one time or another?
What freaks me out a little is that all the chickens tend to face in the same direction. You wander through them and they'll glance at you but before long their beady gaze returns to that far wall...
Hmm, it's showing the correct BST time for me, LF.
There's water on all sides but the floor... so why that wall? What's really worrying is going down to collect the eggs and occasionally finding a raw chicken lying on the floor! They're feral I tells ya!
There's a thought. I could make it extra creepy but putting an item frame up on that far wall, with a cooked chicken in it
I'd be curious as to whether other animals do the same if placed down there.
An interesting topic concerning build ranks has come about in light of recent events. The topic in question is about copying builds to earn ranks; you see, just a little while ago I looked at a brick mansion a user made (I'll give the user privacy for now), a very pretty, large, overall impressive mansion. The only catch is that mansion was from a youtube video titled "Enter the End", copied almost block for block. Scip said that he'd rank anyone who'd make a build, even if it was copied, all because of the work put into the build. While I can see the sense in that concept, I personally find giving ranks to build copiers an insult to builders who take their time to find inspiration and craft their own original ideas, and am annoyed that people can just copy amazing builds off of youtube or what have you and earn themselves a shiny dedicated or architect rank. Overall, I'm just curious as to what everyone here has to say on the matter of copying builds, as I am firmly against it.

This is fairly accurate I'd just like to clear up that I would promote people for the work ad quality of their build however if they are copying someone else's build directly from the server then that's different.
Also, as a staff member I have no way to tell whether or not someone is copying I don't have the time nor motivation to rake through YouTube and other sites to make sure someone hasn't copied a build off the Internet.

I agree completely with Pirate, copying a build takes away the motavation to create something unique, which is something every builder should have. There is no art in taking someone else's work and benifiting from it. It's like build-piracy.
What's the defining point of a copied build? There are at least thousands of builds posted online how are we, the staff, supposed to determine whether or not someone is copying exactly, whether they have switched some materials and or slightly changed the shape or if they simply just have a similar building style to one of the many many builds on the Internet?
Best of Luck to you all,

Whoops, Ill add that to my todo list

Perhaps they want to go for a swim? xD
