Hello I am Jmaz24. I want to find a new server for survival. However before you start pitching your server to me blindly please take the time to read the following criteria. (pay special attention to any criteria marked with a * these are REQUIRED)
1. No griefers.* I hate griefers just like everyone else. All I ask for with this one is simple anti grief plugins and responsible staff member who will repair damages and punish the griefer(s). We use CoreProtect to check and rollback any griefs that do ocurr though since our player base is adult we generally don't have a problem with griefers.
2. Friendly Active mature talkative community.* Seriously if your server does not have this don't post. Ghost town servers may as well be called "Laggy single player" servers. We do have an active player base who chat in game and utilize our teamspeak server. We also have weekly events hosted on our games world which further build our sense of community together.
3. Have anti-grief Lockette /spawn /home /sethome /tp or /tpa plugins.* These make everything way easier. I AM asking for a semi-vanilla server not a pure vanilla server. We use essentials though most of the plugin is disabled to keep it more vanilla than modded. We have the commands you requested enabled.
4. No skype teamspeak3 etc. required.* I don't have these and I am not getting them any time soon. We do have a ts server however you are not required to use it yourself nor will you be pressured to do so.
5. No donate to play or donate to win.* I am not shelling out money for a server unless I feel it truly needs and deserves it. We have no donate to play or to win features as I personally dislike them with a passion. We prefer that if a player wants to donate to our server's future it's bc they love it, the community we've built together and want to see it continue and grow into the future.
6. No economy PERIOD.* This is a pointless confusing feature keep it away. The only 'economy' we have is player base trades. To that end we've built a marketplace where players have built shops as a meeting place for trades with other players.
7. Timber mod. I don't require this but it would be nice. We do not have this plugin. We have only two plugins for in game -- essentials and multiverse for mining worlds.
8. Start me off with basic tools. I don't ask much maybe a bit of food and wood/stone tools. Don't give me a map because: Who needs a map? (I will make that joke quite often as I see maps as worthless) I'm sorry, we don't hand out basic tools or a map. Upon joining our server and getting a tour you might be given a gift by a player who just likes to do that but otherwise we want you to survive by finding, making and exploring your way through the map. We do have a live map link you can use to help find your way around and other players' builds but you don't have to if you don't want to use it.
9. No size restrictions. This is dumb. I should be able to build as long as I have materials. We have no size restrictions -- our map is 8K and will be increased as we have a need. I've just added a new world -- CityScapes which will be strictly for player city/town builds and a new game called ZombieSurvival. The game will be in city centers starting at level 150 to the ceiling at 256. The only 'restriction' we have regarding building is that if you choose a place near someone you give them no less than a 50 block berth on all sides to prevent building on top of each other. Otherwise -- have fun and build to your heart's content.
10. English speaking community.* I only speak English. While I do have many players from other countries our global chat is in English.
11. Community can tolerate Pikachu. I am a Pikachu in Minecraft. Problem? If this is a reference to your avatar I don't care. My only concern is that you're not naked or disgusting -- and yes I am the judge of both.
12. Do NOT suggest Noxverse.* I have played that server before and I did not like it.
Those are my criteria. Also when you post PLEASE include the server's rules how to apply and which criteria (if any) your server does NOT fulfill. It makes my decision much easier.
