Geez guys, give other servers a chance rather than just spamming through Out of the Water accounts (coincidence?)

I'd have to say...hmm. thedarkage.nl is a pretty nice server. So I'll just go with that, can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

Ok, may be hard to compete with Savage Realms.

That said I would be honored to have Medieval Builders reviewed.   We are a new Medieval Themed Survial Server.  Land is controlled by the towny plugin and PVP is allowed in the wilderness areas.  We are primarily a EST player base at the moment, but we are always looking for other players timezones.


You can find our topic here:

MY two favorite are either Lord of the Craft or the yet to be released Dungeon realms.  Lord of the Craft has been around for quite a bit of time, starting in May of 2011.  Since then our community has only grown.  It is a fantasy role play server and we have massive wars with hundreds of people in sieges on castles.  There are bandits on the roads and overall it has a very nice feel to it.  Dungeon Realm, which is in beta, is the baby of Minecraft and Diablo 3.  There are custom mobs, unique items, and cross server items!  I recommend checking out at least one of those.

Please review Bokodile Craft ( [url="http://bokodilecraft.enjin.com/"]http://bokodilecraft.enjin.com/[/url] ). We are a semi serious role playing server, with 3 main warring factions to join. we have also managed to make custom plugins to add mobs such as the wraith, which will teleport around mine shafts and drop books about its tormented life. Since we are new it would really help to get a review [img]http://static.minecraftforum.net//public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.png[/img]

I too am a fan of the amazing server Savage Realms, but you said we probably won't be rereviewed, so I have another GREAT server.

The website is www.mczone.co

MCZone is a collection of servers owned by funkystudios. What's so special about MCZone? I'll tell you.

There are 3 different servers at this moment, and a 4th in closed beta.

-The Walls
You may have heard of or played this popular map by Hypixel. This server runs that map constantly, with colored nametags for teams, kits to start you off, a custom walls map, etc.

-Sky Wars
This is a map by JJtCool, put into a server again. Wait up to 2 minutes and a game will start! In battles up to 15v15, it is VERY fun and active PvP. There are also kits to start you out, such as barbarian, archer, enchanter, and TONS more! You can get these for FREE by typing /vote while ingame.

-Hunger Games
Another hunger games server! With kits, like the other servers, this survival chaos is super fun! Block breaking IS enabled, so you can go hide out in a cave system and get some armor! But don't worry, you can use a compass to point to the nearest player so it's not too hard to find people who hide. (the other two servers have tracking compasses as well)

-Volmaria (closed beta)
A server with a few day DEATHBAN! That's right, after you die (in survival PvP), you are banned for a few days! For elite PvPers and survivors!

Once again, check it out at www.mczone.co

IPs:
wallsmc.com
skywars.co
mc-hg.org

Enjoy! It would be great for both the MCZone and the MCForum communities by reviewing this server group. Not only would MCZone have lots more players, but the MCForumers would LOVE these servers, mark my words! I hope you consider MCZone [img]http://static.minecraftforum.net//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png[/img]

[color=#282828][font=Verdana, Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif][size=3][background=rgb(232, 239, 244)]I realize MCZone isn't on the server list, but as it is 3 servers, it can't be put in a single listing.[/background][/size][/font][/color]

The staff of MOC also has unique events that they hold in the event world that players can compete in for special prizes. Another highlight of MOC is the PvP world. The server has a awesome PvP world with a bunch of unique points of interest for players to fight at strategically.

This is an excellent server and it could use some players. I agree, this would be a good one to be on the spotlight

Also, there is a prison server run by MoC that will be coming soon called Incarceron prison. Perfect for all you prison lovers out there.

Yeah...if I had to guess the people posting are likely getting some sort of reward on the server for doing so.

I think MCF gets your point, guys. Please lay off so other servers can have a chance in the limelight [img]http://static.minecraftforum.net//public/style_emoticons/default/mobcreeper.png[/img]

Ok, I'm a Moderator from Savage Realms and I understand what Sach was saying about giving other servers a chance. I could see how others are seeing us as "greedy" or "unfair", but, from a big server, what do you expect? Of course players are going to post a lot if they love the server. And actually, the Mods and up on there WERE going to give prizes, but once we found out we couldn't be picked again, we stopped. Our Owner, acidsin, even removed the link to this post to try and give others a chance. I'm sorry for any inconvenience we may have caused. On behalf of Savage Realms, I sincerely apologize.

I'd like to point out that I have enjoyed Might of Champions since I joined. The community is fairly nice and the staff are always adding in new additions. The fact that there are so many different types of events makes it enjoyable for everyone. The massive builds are simply stunning, and the pvp world maps are very well made. To simply put it: The server is amazing in all of it's feaures, and I hope that you can get a chance to review us!
