99.9% Uptime - The only time the server is down is during updates
No lag - Lag is bad in any situation, and we've done everything within our power to get rid of it.
No Whitelist - We believe a server should be simple to access, for that reason we have decided against whitelisting.
Ranks - Even though there is no whitelist, we do have a rank system that allows players to earn ranks.
Forums/Website - Even though the server does not have a whitelist, we do have a forum for our players to interact outside of the game, as well as to organize events and give important news.
House/Area Protection - Member ranks and above have the ability to request protection for their houses so that other players or griefers don't destroy their precious creations
Hourly backups - Backups ensure that your house remains intact no matter what kind of disaster befalls it.
Bukkit Mod - Bukkit is up and coming server mod that will replace hMod, it allows many plugins so that we can tune our server to the players needs
LWC plugin - LWC allows players to lock chests, doors, furnaces and even signs, extremely configureable, whats not to love?
mcMMO Plugin - mcMMO is a great plugin that adds a skill system to minecraft, allowing players to gain subtle rewards for the vast amount of mining they already do. EG: Increasing your mining skill gives a chance to gain double drops.

Plugins
The plugins used on the server are as follows:
In most cases we will use the latest available version of all plugins unless there is compatibility issues with our current bukkit build/other plugins.
Rules
Its a short list, but it has to be done
No large scale griefing - Yes, griefing is tolerated to an extent, it's part of minecraft, but it shouldn't be your only directive.
Land protection plugins are installed, but not yet activated as griefing is not yet a problem
No large amounts of lava/water where it doesn't belong - This is probably counted under the above rule, but I wanted to give it it's own. Lava and water flowing is currently enabled, if you put it where it does not belong I may cry, and then disable it.
Donations
All donations go directly towards upgrading and paying for the server.
Every donation goes a long way, but there are in-game benifits available for those who chose to support BossServer.
Donating does not make you immune from the rules of the server, it is not a "free pass".
Donator ranks are also subject to change
