I have a few questions about the server. Are camouflaged skins allowed? If I have a party of friends and someone from my party commits a crime and is banned, will we all be banned?

This server is now offline until it can be updated to 1.0.0. Thanks for the great times everyone!
This server is designed to make Minecraft a true game of survival...the way it was meant to be played.
- 12 Hour Deathbans
- Needed Resources are much Harder to Find
- Unpredictable Terrain
- Monsters are Better at Finding and Hunting Humans
- Strong PVP, Looting, and Pillaging
- Anti-XRay
Let me quick summarize what you are likely to experience on this server:
Can you live long enough to build a formidable shelter before night comes?
No problem you say? 60-70% of players will not survive their first night.
Dawn approaches. Are you still alive? Good, now get your hands on some tools.
A few days have passed. You've managed to defend your shelter and maybe you have even teamed up with 1 or 2 others to help stay alive (and dealt with countless others that hopelessly tried to raid you in the dead of the night). Now you need to gather some food, gear up, and set off to escape this unforgiving land. There is promise of fresh air, trees, and wild animals abounding in a distant part of the world.
After a long journey, who knows how long you've been gone, and with no one in your party alive but you, tattered and bruised, you somehow manage to reach the distant lands of Pandemonium. Trees, grass, water, animals...you feel like a new man again. But wait, new unsightly things await you. The things that go bump in the night are even more aggressive and any remaining survivors here have grown blood thirsty. Yet, new desires consume your thoughts. You dream of gold and diamonds.
After much turmoil, sacrifice, and dead allies, one day in the distant future, you will find yourself standing proud - a man who has built himself a lasting fortress, one who has won many great victories in combat and feared by many, you have fashioned a diamond sword and a full suit of armor. You might even have a gold bar or two. You decide to embark on a new adventure of blood and glory.
For what awaits you now, no man could prepare. In the darkest corners of the world, you find deep Pandemonium dungeon ruins as legendary as they come. They look like they have been crafted by the vilest of creatures. With burning desire, you decide to venture inward to uncover whatever great mysteries and forbidden relics lie at the bottom of these ancient Pandemonium fortresses. Likely, no man shall ever know.
WARNING: In hardcore Minecraft, you are competing to live. There's no dancing in the meadows and playing with chickens here. You will have to kill, steal, and teamwork to survive. Yes, you might have to fend off a horde of starving players just to get wood from a single tree. If you join this server, you are destined to experience great and unfortunate things!
Here's a couple screenshots: Desert of Despair
This is not only where you begin your adventure, but this where most of you will end your adventure.
Pandemonium
A few of you will survive long enough to inhabit this place. This is not only the main part of the world (the desert is just there to test your hardcore survival abilities), but this frontier is where you experience the greatest of endeavors, victories, and death.
The server has been modified with a number of features to enhance the hardcore survival experience of Minecraft and to feed your insatiable desires for blood and glory!
Whitelisted
IP Address:
Currently Offline until 1.0.0 update
In the rare event that the server is full, wait 5-10 min. Someone will have died.
Gameplay Protection
ANTI-CHEAT Plugin (used to eliminate fly and speed hackers along with other item / block glitches)
ANTI-XRAY
ANTI-INVISIBLE TEXTURES
(rare ore finds and chests are logged and tracked to identify xray use; Don't worry, I won't ban you upfront for xraying. No, that would not be harsh enough. First, I'll let you spend a day or two gathering up lots of resources and preparing yourself to actually make some progress. Then after many many hours of invested time - bam! Perma-banned...in the a$$. No Mercy. No Exceptions. "...but I only did it once and turned it off right away, and it was an accident. It was a week ago...please don't ban me now, I will never do it again!" BAM! This forum post was your advanced warning. There will be no exception. If you have the xray mod installed, I highly recommend removing it so you don't accidently click it on for a second. I might enable my Ore Obfuscation mod to modify packets sent to your Minecraft Client from your very first attempt to see through walls that you are not supposed to.
Auto-Saves and World Backups (just in case something does go wrong and needs to be undone)
Admins have tools to monitor unusual inventory activity and observe you while you play. This will be done often.
Multi-Server Ban! Once a player is perma-banned for any offense, their data is automatically uploaded via Multi-Ban to a shared blacklist so that they are now added to the automatic ban list of many other servers. We don't believe in being nice.
Pandemonium really has much to offer. The accessible world has been carefully laid out and all resources, dungeons, and pre-built terrain features have been designed to make the gameplay both very challenging and rewarding.
Oh...one more small caveat worth expanding on. The Desert of Despair! Call it a test to determine if you're even worthy to play on hardcore survival. When you join the server for the first time, you will choose one of three spawn points into a vast desert of tragedy and hopelessness. You will sing for joy at the sight of a tree and pray for mercy that you may find a single piece of cobblestone before you're killed. This vast desert area contains 8 Waypoints out into the main world of Pandemonium lush with trees and grass, and animals. I can assure you of two things. 1. Everything you need to survive can be found somewhere in the desert. They are strategically placed throughout the 512 million blocks that make up this part of the world - utilizing all 128 layers. If you're lucky, you will find one of the several hundred underground tunnels that are fully equipped with their array of traps, loot, and monsters. Many of these are what eventually lead to the Waypoints out of the Desert of Despair. 2. I can also assure you that this part of your hardcore experience will leave you bloody and scarred.
New Players
Strategic resources are occasionally refreshed so your experience and opportunities to get ahead on this server are not much different than those who have been playing for a couple weeks.
There are approximately 68 people that have made it to Pandemonium so far out of some 1900 players that have entered this server.
Important Notes
NO Complaining. What did you expect from joining an extreme hardcore survival server with deathbans? If you can't handle hardcore survival, then go play with bunnies.
NO, admins will not help you. There is no exception. Items cannot be given. Time cannot be changed. Nothing! No! Don't!
NO XRay or other disadvantaging mods.
Do Not Log Out During Combat. Die with honor. We take combat logging very seriously on this server. This means that if you are in combat with another player or are being chased by another player, DO NOT log out or close your MC client. What fun would PvP be on a hardcore deathban server if people just logged out anytime they saw you coming? If you log out during combat, you might just find yourself no longer able to connect to this server.
NO Climbing over/in/through/out "The Wall". These areas are protected on the top layers. That means if you are found over the wall, you will be banned for using some kind of exploit. The only legitimate way out of the desert is via underground portal.
NO Relogging to despawn mobs. This is an exploit of game mechanics.
YES Zan's Mini-Map is allowed (this helps discourage players from just camping in a hole with sneak on). You can find the download link on the Pandemonium forums. If you have a different Mini-Map tool, you might want to double check that it's allowed.
Disabled:
Lava
Flint & Steel
Nether
TNT (will be re-implemented later on for advanced trap making)

D. Dieing of starvation, and drowning! :sad.gif:
i would like to report that mercenarysniper, is hacking in the game. i was walking and bam dead in one shot, i had 9 hearts.. not too mention there wasnt anyone near me. and i was on top of a hill. so he could not have snuck up on me to kill me. thanks.
THere is no point in joining a server where if you die you are banned for 16 hours...
If it's too hard for you, go back to hello kitty island adventure. Some people like a challenge. You won't jump for joy when you get your first crafting table on random generic vanilla minecraft server #8697.
So that was odd.... i died last night went on to play today it spawned me in the dungeon in the same spot i died and left me with all the levels i had and missing 3 hearts... i took 2 steps and the room filled with creepers....
A. Player Name: JPEXALTRA.
B. Why do you want to join? I have 2 friends that play on this server and I want a challenge as complicated and devious and this server is said to be.
C. Will you survive your first night? Yes.
D. What's your least favorite way to die? I haven't died in a while, but I once loaded a seed and I was instantly covered in lava, I guess I hated that death the most.
A. derfwert
B. My combat and survival aren't properly challenged with wimpy creepers and skeletons.
C. If all goes well, yes. If someone has a texture pack that makes sand and sandstone look vastly different and leads an army of 30 zombies to my base when I have nothing to fight with but my fist, probably not.
D. Getting caught by a trap that's completely obvious and that I know I should have been able to see and avoid/disarm.
HEYO!
