That's not how its gonna be, ill come on tonight, say goodbye to everyone, give my stuff away, and thats it. Done.
My buddy was doing the same thing with my stockpile of stuff in my bases lol.. stacks of diamonds, enchanted weapons/tools prot 4 armor sets. Sucks its gotta be like that but oh well, It's Mark n Starzy's server, they can run it anyway they want... even if it his nose first into the ground lol.. I will probably be stopping by this forum just to see how long it takes before all the vets are gone haha. Regardless it was good playing with you, maybe we will catch each other on some other games (my ingame names are always "Bleedtheway" for like every game / console lol) or server.
To those still playing, I miss ya haha, it was fun while it lasted, even if it was a short run.
To those just starting or thinking about donating, Its a nice thing to do to show support, but i GUARANTEE you this.. the #1 perk they have listed for donating ("1. The love of our server staff") Is a crock of ****. They don't care about you at all, they only care about whats in your wallet.
My speculations on this server are gradually growing stronger and stronger. I joined; a clueless noob, in awe from the shimmering glory of these seemingly pearly gates to heaven that were Killion. Guards were scary mother****ers, you needed a team of players to even fathom stepping to the pinnacle of the prison staff. I quickly realized who most of the active and skilled members were; to jot some names, Laxrules, Notorious, EvilCloset, N3tiz3n, tom6903 (believe it or not), DadSonCousin (even though the ******* used Nodas the whole time he played here), and some others. During this time, WuTang was still hardly present in the community. I never really saw them as a central power. Anyways, moving on more directly to the point: Every time I got on, it was an inevitable struggle to get a new set of armor... A new sword to possibly grasp the hopes of killing some guards, at this time they were actually worth killing. Things were full of excitement, a new feature around every corner, a welcoming hand to comfort you when you didn't understand something, and a black-list of well-demonstrated players who you could dream to one day over come.
Free was just plain out terrifying for me and my clan. It felt nice being independant, and knowing you were doing your best to compete with some of the well-off clans already lurking around the midsts of Free. I couldn't exactly go AFK anywhere, or I would surely be killed and have my entire base ruined to a million tiny pieces, and then re-discovered by another clan or two in the time that the other clan was devouring it. Usually resulting in a multi-clan battle. ****ing amazing. At this point in time, iLL and dogs were known as TFD. There didn't seem to be a single down-trotten cloud in sight.
However, lifes devilish plots do not allow a story to lack conflict. All clear waters grow murky when they lay surrounded by infectious changes. My newfound infatuation with Killion had seemed too good to be true, but then something hit this server like a hi-jacked plane being flown into a church (in the sense that something good was being ruined).
I remember hearing about this... this community spotlight... I didn't think much of it. Little did I know that this would soon aline a series of dream-shattering domino's, leaving them to be struck and knocked down by any harsh move in the wrong direction. Before you knew it, guards weren't scary any more. There was Nent, Goon, and Death... Then a herd of sheep that never had a sheapherd. Starzy began hiring these... discipline deprived under-appreciative players who were barely exceptional at minecraft, let alone pvp. This wasn't the straw that broke the camels back, but it certainly added to the weight of the boulder above some players heads. It's just a joke to see these chainmail drones that mimic that of a level 80 bot on Sauerbraten (Heh, inside joke), running around swinging there swords at armorless people so they feel powerful. But when these new guards were confronted by the blade of a real warrior, they would build a sense of entitlement as if they actually can make rules as they go along, or just flat out break them. I've been jailed 29 times for killing guards. Starzy has failed to fix this problem... I don't blame her though, this problem is almost too big to be fixed now. It's almost as if Starzy left the sink fosset on; metaphorically, for 8 months, and now if she actually tries to return to it there will simply be too much of a mess to fix in a weeks work.
Guards were one small problem, but then all of these alleged "good features," started dropping like bad habbits. Mobs spawned like there was no tomorrow back then. We could get to level 50 in a couple hours, no problem. At this current day and age, you're lucky to get to level 50 once in a whole day, even if you're Gigidyy and payed $100 of your REAL-LIFE money to ensure the succession of this problem. I think I know part of the problem here, but I'll get back to that. After all, I've only begun to list problems, not solutions.
Shortly after the two problems mentioned above became present, the string holding that boulder just about collapsed. We lost a vast majority of our veterans. To emphasize the point better, I don't even consider myself a veteran, yet people look at me like I am one. This just shows that the people who used to be recognized by me as veterans are almost all gone. No one is left to make that name for us anymore. If I were to have joined the server now, I wouldn't exactly call Killion "Heavens Pearly Gates," like when I did join. In turn, Freeville is a PvP deprived dust bowl. We've got iLL, dogs, vtx, and everyone else gets thrown into this sub-group of "not-so-recognizable," clans. Hey, it might just be me, but things are pretty damn miserable when the leader of iLL calls that joke of a clan vtx one of the central powers that's still remaining...
There are more small problems, but they aren't adding to our path of destruction as heavily as the aforementioned. Now I'd like to state how I think we can set this on the right track, because sometimes I wish I'd jumped out of the car before it hit the cliffs.
Guard problem: Let's be idealistic here, because being realistic and blunt is just a buzz kill. There are some fun guards out there! I can't name all of them, but Xanadude, Bluetoes, DamienStone, burnteggoz, and jacketyoyo are really fun and memorable to fight with. However, "fun" is evidently not good enough to prevent me from getting a 115 KDR on my alt. There needs to be some slight new changes, if I might suggest. Guard training. Just like the police academy training you have to go through, guards should have to train for no less then a week before being thrown into the battlefield. Some of the guards, like the C-Guard maxie-something, just need a nudge in the right direction. I can kill this guy over and over without getting hit once. Now, I know p2 chainmail vs. p4 diamond isn't easy to fight, but the bare minimal of what a guard should do is eat away that precious armor of mine. I am suggesting that you let me, or someone else of your choice train the guards personally. Be it 1v1's, or centralized training in specific aspects of PvP, I would gladly train new guards for you Starzy, should you want me to.
Mob Problem: This one is a toughy. It's hard to utilize something that when reduced; can cause even more problems, but when added to makes people rage and complain. But something I've noticed a LOT is these hoards of passive mobs, and what I've grown accustomed to doing is manually lowering the mob count. Now before you go "Ban this h4x0r h3 am mezz wit surver setdings!", understand that this is just a small hunch of mine. I go around with a decent sword, killing mobs of 30-100 farm animals that spawn in these numbers every time a chunk is loaded, expired, and then re-loaded while the cap isn't already reached. It seems as though the cap is being reached by these passive mob hoards some times, or at the very least being added towards. Again, this is only a hunch, but if I am correct, completely nerfing the spawning of these hoards would lighten the server intensity by a lot.
We can't really do anything to keep ungreatful people here, if they fail to see Starzy and Mark's tireless efforts to improve the server and the fact that they keep the server going to begin with is beyond all of us. Goon has made a few good points, but stop giving him your salutations.
What I see is a teenager who isn't happy with mommy and daddies decisions, and his other teenage friends saying "Yeah man, **** parents!" When the reality of it is without these parents who nurtured you and raised you with love and affection, you'd still be shitting where you eat, and pissing where you sleep.
Of course, Goon is being referred to as the teenager, and Mark and Starzy are the parents.
We all just need to embrace the new changes with a good attitude, and hope for the best. Speak your mind, don't keep things inside. Mark and Starzy haven't once lead anyone to believe that they would be banned for voicing there opinions politely, I'm sure they commemorate those who do. If they don't get around to answering you or responding to your ideas, hey, they're busy people. Acting like the staff needs to work around your actions just gives me reason to believe you're an impatient, self-entitled douchebag.
I know this is a lot to read, but I'd like to think I've narrowed it down to the few main concerns and how they could possibly be acted upon; and additionally, responded to those who think the staff isn't pro-active enough for them. So everyone, let's just get along and rejoyce the fact that this server is still here for us to retreat to when real life is too miserable or tiresome to enjoy.
TL;DR:
Things may not seem perfect right now, but when you hit a few road bumps in life do you commit suicide? No, you try to make things better, and keep your head up. So let's all do just that...
This is almost exactly what I was thinking in a sence I just could not have put it as well as he did. This post makes so much sence and I am very glad we have someone like him in our community. I salute you for this post.
Welp, looks like the guards aren't doing anything at all... got killed at least ten times within the first 15 minutes of playing by players with swords. Thought this would be fun, but it's not, really. Not at all. oh well.

Any other information:
What I am going to say is going to upset a lot of the older players who font remember the good old days, but I find it hard to care about most of this. I am a newer member. I did not see the rise of WuTang, I barely even remember Goon as a Warden.
Now you can call me whatever you like for that. You can assume this makes me less experienced, less of a member, or maybe less worthy to post my own opinion. But I'd like to remind almost everybody who has posted on the subject that there are almost 200 members on at any given time. Accounting for timezones and the fact not everybody logs in daily, this may be close to 1000 individual regular members. How many of them have posted insight on the forum: 50? How many have posted insight anywhere: 100?
Now I'm not trying to devalue anybody's accomplishments or anything, but it really needs to be said that if an old member leaves... It won't shock and scare the admins. They have so many members, and they gain more daily. Maybe losing some personal friends would suck, and I am sure in light of this chaos we will all be losing some on Killion. Actually, as far as things go, I kind of like Mark and Starzy. I probably shouldn't have any moral judgement on anybody I work under in the server, but I know that I've definitely seen worse admins. Allegations about them are thrown out left right and center, but because Goggy didn't reveal them to be true in what would have been a stunning coup de grâce, I've probably never had more faith in their legitimacy.
Now, yeah, mobcap is a problem. Maybe you lost status symbols with the plots, and I remember how revered they were, they probably were a huge loss to anybody who lost one. But I know for a fact there are players, some of them good players, who won't even remember the plots.
Seriously guys. You can try staging huge walkouts, quitting spectacularly, and Killion won't even come close to dying. I'm not necessarily trying to point fingers at anybody on the forums (come on, we have all seen it in in-game chat) but this is Killion. Adapt or leave.
Yes I am fully aware if I gain any seniority on Killion and drastic changes are made to the system I like I would need a taste of my own advice. I'm not trying to patronize anybody here, but really, those plots are not coming back, a lot of old members are not coming back. The new members like me don't see a problem because we like this system just as well as you may have liked your old one.
(typed on my iPod, forgive spelling errors)
Please begin the flaming I am sure is imminent.

Why should you be unbanned? Hello Killion staff, Mods,Wardens, apparently, i have been banned for X-ray.... now I am NOT stupid enough to use X-ray on a server like this first of all. I love this server with all my heart and i have never played on another one since i found killion. I don't know if it was the way i dug that made Death suspicious, because i dig in a 2x2 area and sorta make a make-shift staircase to the bottom :P. I ran into some iron ore and then a diamond and i was like SWEET! so i kept digging and there was another one and i broke it and all of a sudden it said "You have been caught using x-ray!" i was like WHAT!
Any other information: I am a valued member of the C-A block community and i am a well known PvPer. I really don't want to lose this sever from my life and i did NOT use X-ray. I only hope the Staff here at Killion could please see me through.
Thank you,

Yes I am fully aware if I gain any seniority on Killion and drastic changes are made to the system I like I would need a taste of my own advice. I'm not trying to patronize anybody here, but really, those plots are not coming back, a lot of old members are not coming back. The new members like me don't see a problem because we like this system just as well as you may have liked your old one.

Please begin the flaming I am sure is imminent.
If you're gonna go to hell, drink it up, you might as well.

Why should you be unbanned? Hello Killion staff, Mods,Wardens, apparently, i have been banned for X-ray.... now I am NOT stupid enough to use X-ray on a server like this first of all. I love this server with all my heart and i have never played on another one since i found killion. I don't know if it was the way i dug that made Death suspicious, because i dig in a 2x2 area and sorta make a make-shift staircase to the bottom :P. I ran into some iron ore and then a diamond and i was like SWEET! so i kept digging and there was another one and i broke it and all of a sudden it said "You have been caught using x-ray!" i was like WHAT!
Any other information: I am a valued member of the C-A block community and i am a well known PvPer. I really don't want to lose this sever from my life and i did NOT use X-ray. I only hope the Staff here at Killion could please see me through.
Thank you,
