Minecraft Forums

Thank you so much for this advice. You should make a thread on this topic, it would be good for many server owners.

Post the site on a few voting sites, this is a pretty well known technique but it does help and make sure you encourage players to vote. In contrast to some servers it may be a smarter option to not have a huge lost of sites to vote on, rather only a few can encourage players quite a bit more since they are not berated with a huge list of sites.

I have had this idea but dont know exactly where to post them. I have heard of Votifier, so that might work.

Next make sure to post your server on this forums and other forums of similar type. There are a few around if you have a look and if you keep these threads reasonably updated it will be helpful.

I already have done that. (Give me some tips or ideas about this)
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1722993-hyruletriforce-server/
I can already see it needs work. :L

Quote from Masterofjumping

Youtube videos can attract quite a large amount of players. If you know anyone just give them a Pm and see if it is possible to have a video posted.

Isnt the best idea as I dont have enough subscribers. I have a really good intro but do need alot more subscribers.

Quote from Masterofjumping

Facebook is another option, though how effective this can be is debatable.

That is a good tip. I find it to be helpful as I can add that to my website and people can give it a like.
I just need some time to set it up.

Quote from Masterofjumping

A nicely designed site that shows some effort with forums and such is always a plus with players. I highly recommend Enjin, if you have little experience with sites.

I have added a website with enjin.com (check it out, give me tips)
HyruleTriforce-mc.enjin.com -> It's a FREE version of it
Also on that note, I did have an application form for people to enter but not anymore...

Quote from Masterofjumping

Create an attractive banner and put it in your signature with a link to your thread. Ask players of your server to do this as well.

I would love to but, its hard to do so as they dont know how to. I have asked people on minecraft forums.
Any suggestions on people? Visit my website for one...

Quote from Masterofjumping

Encourage word of mouth and have some sort of referral system. You would not believe how effective one player can be in bringing friends to a server.

I know, this is the best thing about all of it. There are many ways, I give out diamonds to people that do this. I ask my Sages (A high rank) to give their specified area some. I would add my server on here, but it is hard as I dont know of any proper designers and cannot pay.

Thank you,

Hello sir, if you can please make me one for my server Ill give a free rank as well!

Dont waste your time.

Quote from harry1039800

please dont advertise YOUR clan in OUR clan forums.

That was an honest mistake. I will remove the post ASAP but please STAFF answer me. PM me ASAP

If you have essentials installed open the essentials file and scroll down to Essentials Signs (sumfin like dat) and then you shall see something like this:

#buy
#trade
#enchant
#gamemode
#sell
etc...
(may not be in that order)

If you do get rid of the '#' and it should be just 'enchant' that now enables it using essentials.
Then using the correct format you can enchant items.

+1 Please on the side

Hey,

I would like some tips on how to properly without paying for advertisments and things. I do have banners and logos but I need places to advertise and I need to know how to properly advertise, my server has a unique theme to it, Zelda: Ocarina Of Time, and is known for that. It is unique but I cant seem to advertise it properly to the public. I have many ranks but still cant get people on


The server isnt released as of yet but my previous went down as it wasn't popular. I am going to make a GRAND OPENING and see if that attracts people like give a major drop party.

PLEASE HELP ME!!
All help is appreciated

Quote from SharpMelon

I have never thought of this. Either way thanks for posting. *Instantly starts researching*

There are many plugins but you can always see if your panel or your host allows automatic backup and you can always goto your location of the server and right-click and say previous versions to go back, doesnt waste space.

Quote from Eoin@ClanSlots

I would not recommend a plugin. They will eat power from your server, and can't properly schedule IO priority etc...
The best way is a stand alone backup script.

As posted above

Quote from Survivzor

offline mode server:

1) find out any usernames with elevated privileges.
2) spoof that name when joining server.
3) can has elevated privileges


yeah no problem at all thanks for playing

If you know how to protect your server, you will not have an issue but Im not fund with it.
There is many ways to protect the server. LoginSecurity is a good example as you have to login with a password and therefor no one can login but yourself unless your password is exposed or a mod (depending on permissions) has changed it.

Quote from Icelord871

onlinemode=true. The best protection.

No help at all.
People can still hack but risk losing their account or getting bad feedback from some plugins.

Quote from Saydin

This started happening when you installed NoCheatPlus?

I highly recommend you don't install plugins or server modifications from anywhere other than the Bukkit Dev/Plugins sites.
http://plugins.bukkit.org/
http://dev.bukkit.org/

Thank you,
But NoCheatPlus is a bukkit plugin. There is no way to get inside of it unless you are the maker of it but you have a strong point. 1+

Hey, I would like to ask you for some tips and ideas for stuff like this I would like to become a professional designer. How to add clouds and different characters. I do use Photoshop and I have made many banners and logos but seeing yours. It looks better.

Is there a bukkit plugin, where I can backup the server like every 1 or 2 hours?

Thank you

Yes, you may 'THINK' offline mode is a problem but its not, you just need to know how to protect the server

Hey,

I have a bukkit Server and I use:
- Multiverse-core
- Groupmanager
- Essentials

I would like to make a WORLD IN WORLD CHAT ONLY and to
Chat to others you have to type /shout.

I can't seem to configure this? Can anyone recommend me anything? What to do now?

Thank You,
- Tarikb

Thanks for trying to help but all I did was redownload Essentials and it seemed to work =D
Must of needed an update

Thanks everyone for the HELP but my server is offline mode.
I need something to PROTECT the server from all of this stuff.

I will do what everyone said but I do prefer CoreProtect =D
