Why I created this server,
I'll keep this short.
I have searched very thoroughly over the past week for a decent vanilla server where I can enjoy minecraft the way I did back in the old vanilla server days. I have been through every 'anarchy' and 'vanilla' server advertised in the forums, and found that none of them provide a true vanilla playstyle.
Here are the problems I encountered:
Non-persistent worlds - The server owners are known for server wipes, changes, and other activities that discourage anyone from enjoying a permanent presence on their server.
"Pay to win" anarchy - Servers that sell permanent armor and tools or offer other advantages to those willing to pay.
Item-spawning - Server operators abuse their item-spawning abilities to provide advantages for themselves and their friends.
Mods - Although these are somewhat acceptable on 99% vanilla servers, many of the mods completely ruined the continuity of the game. These included spawn area portals and other add-ins. Some 'Vanilla' servers are modified so terribly that it is clear they are only using the 'Vanilla' tag to attract players.
Because I could not find a single server that is truly an anarchy, vanilla, persistent server, I was forced to create my own.
Essentially, this server will provide players to provide the opportunity to enjoy minecraft in the single-player fashion, but with the multiplayer element that will allow them to engage in conflicts and friendships if they desire. There are no map limits, so it is completely possible to wander far away and play in isolation for as long as you desire.
The spawn area will no doubt be a very chaotic, violent place, so tread carefully until you are far away enough to create a bed. If you're lucky, you will find friends who will help you get established.
I hope this will recapture that feeling from when minecraft was in development. You would wander a lonely world, and explore amazing wilderness - but you would always wonder 'am I really alone'?
Hope everyone is having a good time. My philosophy is that the players make the server and decide how a server should be - not the owner. Who knows what we will see as the server grows and evolves? I'm excited to find out. Maybe a peaceful civilization will crop up in one part of the map, or perhaps there will be some cool battles. I hope people come on here and post their stories and pics.
Unfortunately, a group of individuals thought it would be fun to hack the server. They created some clock generator type devices that have crashed some chunks near the spawn. We can fix the server but it's going to require a 'wipe'.
Fortunately, this server is only a week old. This will be our first and ONLY wipe. It was not made for fickle reasons. Without having worldedit and other editors up-to-date, there is no way to fix the affected chunks.
The upside is that the map will be updated to the new 1.4.2 patch, so we are less likely to have this issue in the future.
The philosophy of this server is still that there should never be wipes, ever, for any reason. This one is only occuring because there is no other choice.
I will also like to say along side vancover that risk777 was hacking, not only this but in battles he dint fight honorably he just combat logged.After him a man named tucker speed hacked and fly hacked and started using risks droped items in order to kill people me included, i dount have his full name or a screen shot
Risk777 and some tucker guy (didnt get his full name) was hacking.
Risk was using speedhack, flyhack, invisibility, and tucker was using speedhack and flyhack.
I highly HIGHLY suggest you install some more advanced anti-hack software and add anti-combat log software program.
Also please note a user name Bomba (still didnt get his full name) is a troll.
Please come onto the server when you have freetime so you can help us during theese stressful times.
Me and my friend uroyoan were vigilantes on the server that stopped the hackers.
This server used to have a really friendly and good community, but now it's full of 12-year-olds who hack and whine.
*Sigh* Happens every time to any good server I go...

It is back up now.
That's odd. It rarely goes down. It may have been a short backup that crashed the server or something.

I'm 18 and an Eagle Scout and have moderated/OP'd on 4 vanilla/pvp servers in the past year.

A whitelist might be a good idea too until better anti-hack plugins are set up
