Just happened to parooze on through here, and I noticed you guys are having issues with the server constantly crashing. I'd like to help, but I need to ask a few things regarding the state of it:
1) Is it on a dedicated host? Or is it being run off of a home server?
2) Is the /give enabled (can people give themselves items)
3) Are you running on bukkit?
4) If you have any additional plug-ins, what are they?
I'm fairly experienced in administrating my own server, and if you guys are having issues, I'm sure I've caused the same issue on my own server at one point or another.

I can't answer the first one or fourth, I'll leave those to Gachl.
2. OPs can /give items to themselves and others. Otherwise, no.
3. We usually run bukkit, but it hasn't been reinstalled since 1.6 hit. I initially thought Gachl had taken the server down to reinstall it, but unless it takes five hours to do I think it's unlikely at this point.

Well, unless the OPs are giving out the wrong item IDs, the talk of inventory corruption is probably not the cause. Players that immediately crash after logging in due to inventory problems typically give themselves the wrong ID (An item that doesnt exist), which causes the game to go haywire. You'd think they'd have safety nets for those kinds of mistakes, but they dont. *shrug*
The fact that you arent running on bukkit makes me a bit confused, however. There's a recommended build out for 1.6.6, so there's no need to be holding back on it.
Do you know if you guys are using any heavy world editting plugins? T-pack, worldedit, voxelsniper, etc?
WE FIXED THE problem already, way before you were here, we are waiting for maintenance to finish up.
I know it looks like one problem, but there was two, the inventory WAS the problem, and thus problem #1 is solved.
Problem #2 is the delation of the end of the maintenance.
ok?
Gotcha. Just checking in since half of the posts in this thread state that '**** aint working right'. Anywho, best of luck with the server. Hopefully the trolls wont bug you too much.

...hopefully.
Part of that may be simply because we discuss a lot of things in the main MLP thread, so just the problem posts for the server appear here.

Oh, I'm not trying to insult the server in any way shape or form. I don't know if I'm sending out that kind of vibe, but thats not my intent here. :X
I was just seeing if any few fellow pony-watchers needed assistance. :smile.gif:
I'm sure the server is great, judging from the images on the front page, and the fact that a pony server can't possibly be 'not' great.
So I had a few thoughts about this pony classes stuff some of you suggested, here is what I think could be possible:
- Regular ponies can't fly or cast magic but they have increased armor, deal more damage and walk slightly faster
- Pegasi ponies can fly and hover
- Unicorn ponies can cast magic, that means they have a certain amount of mana that recharges every few minutes for a bit which they can use to spawn items. Items cost a different amount of mana (like cobblestone costs 2 mana, tnt costs 20).
You're only able to choose your pony class twice in your entire life.
The Unicorn ones sounds slightly OP, I think limitations on what items they can spawn would help there.
you are limited by your amount of mana. for example if I don't want anypony to spawn admininum I set the mana cost of adminium higher than the max. mana you can have (say 100 mana is maximum, adminium will cost 500).
I wrote a fanfic on the MLP forum page... I'll spend a couple days getting used to them and acquianted.... Everyone seems really nice. Thank you for making this server, but I'll get more aquainted before I can join...
So, to jump forward a little, let's get acquianted to those on the server! Tell me something about yourself as I'll most likely be seeing a lot of you, bronies.
:3
And, this is a survival with a little bit of building, not FULL ON REBUILD EQUESTRIA, right? I saw a couple of servers like those, and quite frankly I just want a server where I can talk about ponies. Not rebuild the entire gosh darn continent from the show.
And about the pony classes, Rainbow Dash impersonater for life, man.

Only basic things should be able to be spawned. Coal, rock, cobble, dirt, grass, seeds, wood tools, wood, etc.
There is a pseudo-project underway that rebuilds part of Equestria, but it's not a main focus of the server in any particular way. People do habitually build pony tribute monuments which can be seen on the map. Randomizer is working on some place called Quebuck up in the Canada area, and I'm out in the islands creating a 4x3x43 tower from bedrock to sky limit. I'm pretty far out from the main construction area near spawn.
So we don't focus too heavily on ponies, no.

Or TNT.
I get that the unicorns are builders, Pegasi are a fighter/builder mix, and Earth ponies are full on fighters/survivalists, but we need to make sure unicorns don't spam stuff. Maybe, they're allowed to spawn anything in certain areas, but when they leave, their inventories get wiped? IDK, just putting it out there. Also, they need to do something that isn't just "Wait two minutes for mana recharge, get all items"
I think that unicorns shouldn't spawn items, they should be able to do little magic things, like, maybe a spell that allows them to fly, a spell that allows them to fight, but very limited versions of those abilities. As seen in the show, unicorns can make earth ponies fly.
Also, Good news! I just got a rainbow dash skin, AND I'm going to ponytize my MC account.
Not happy with this feather mod. I'm glitched and can't do anything :/
What's the feather mod? :tongue.gif:
And the community here is nice.... I've been posting for about 5 pages. I'll keep posting there from now on, this brought me back to MC forums..... Which I hate usually... Can't wait to actually get into this server!

Spawning diamonds is a LITTLE Op, don'tcha think?
