Have you read the rules: Yes, and this is a useless question. Ask something that can only be answered by reading the rules.
Ever been banned before?: Yes, and again this is a useless question. If someone was strictly interested in griefing this server they obviously say no since there is no way to tell whether or not they are lying.
If so, why?: Griefing of poorly administrated servers; servers that had unfair rules and/or permissions.

your server is nice, but is has a severe issue with downtime. I do know that Minecraft is currently very unstable, however this is a bit ridiculous. I don't know how many plugins you have, but they could be causing some instability. So either you may need to remove a few or get more people who have remote access to the server, so they can restart it or do whatever necessary modifications to get it running. Though with my experience with your administration team you have selected, none of them would deserve the privilege as none of them understand how to utilize everything they are fully capable of. Listening to people who can use WorldEdit and not even begin to understand everything they can do with it makes me question your judgement. I'm pretty sure my experience has not been unique, as I am considering leaving the server due to it's amount of downtime. In my experience, downtime is rarely an issue for servers, I don't know what yours is, but I suggest you find the solution.

This is quite awesome. However there is a better system for multiplayer usage of this mod. Instead of requiring the mod to be installed on servers, you can have a server to host all of the users' textures. The client mod will receive the textures for users that have the mod and then display them. If a user wants to change their texture for an item then they must upload it to the hosting server under an account they create that is the exact same name as their Minecraft account. This is basically the exact same way the minecraft skins work.

Are you ****ing kidding me? You guys have got to get some better policies and ideas for your contests. The last one was a fail because jolicraft already had a halloween texture pack out. And due to jolicraft's huge popularity it was inevitable it would win the contest whether or not it was actually the best halloween texture pack. This is probably going to be the same situation as there are already plenty of steampunk mods out there. The time frame for this one is even more ridiculous. Creating a good mod takes much longer then creating a good texture pack. Therefore I can almost guarantee a mod made prior to this will win, therefore defeating the purpose of this contest. If your going to try and connect to the community, do it in such a way that doesn't make you look dumb.

The easiest way to get rid of this issue would be to simply create a policy in contests that stated that no creations made prior to the creation of the contest can be entered. The reason should be obvious as those contestants would have an unfair advantage on having more work done on their creation then other contestants.

Honestly, you should have a contest for contest ideas. You can easily engage anyone in the community since everyone on the forums is capable of entering as they do not lack any necessary talents since none are required.

Contests are not a bad idea. You just need to put more thought in to them.

So I've got some money to spend and these two games have been the latest big hits out so far. Prior to this my thoughts were to go with Rage immediately as I had been anticipating it for a couple years. However after reading metacritic and watching some videos, I have found out that it is supposedly really buggy. The reviews make it hard to decipher, but I believe people are only rating Rage poorly for the bugs, which are really bad, but the actual game itself is quite good. If I buy it I will purchase it for my PS3 as supposedly the console versions are a lot more stable then the PC version. Dead Island I've been a bit iffy about purchasing, but it looks good. I love zombie games and love the fallout scavenging gameplay. However Rage by popular critics has been rated better than Dead Island.

Which do I purchase?

If you could take the time to type up a response on why you chose the game you chose, that would be more helpful.

Yes I am aware there are bukkit plugins that do this for the client mod Spout. However it is impossible to get people to use it practically.

If you've played Minecraft 1.9 pre-release 2 you'll notice there are now a good 11 music discs. As I'm listening to them all right now I'm noticing they're all of a similar mood. I'm not complaining that C418 should be more diverse, that's extremely hard for any artist to do. But I'm a bit disappointed as I'm unable to listen to anything that I'm really able to get into. So I figure an easy solution would be for the ability to add custom music to play on music discs. In single player you would have a section in options for music in which every record would be shown vertically. Alongside each would be the filename and file location underneath that. To the right of that would be 'Browse' button that would open up a window to select the file to be played. In SMP, custom music would have the option of being set by the server. In options you could select whether or not to allow server custom music to play. Custom music on the server would be stored in a folder labeled something like 'music'. Next there would be a text file in that folder that would contain a list of all the name for the default music disc names and next to each the administrator would input the name of the custom song to replace that song. Whether the players on the server would download a permanent file of the song to play from the server or temporary doesn't matter.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Comments? Support?
Post it...

Yes this is in the pre-release, apparently if you right click while holding a sword it will go to this position



I'll be updating this as more information is known about this, please reply if you know anything about this

you can come on my server and play as we test out all of 1.8 and what it has at: 67.215.238.189:25565

Notes about deflection:
-right click to activate
-does not decrease fall damage taken
-doesn't appear to lower any damage (pending)
-changed sword position cannot be seen on other players in smp

I would recommend some form of communication between the users and administrators or knowledgeable users. Forums would be a temporary solution until something better is developed controlling the amount of spam better. And I would suggest not putting in chat room as the one on planet minecraft is joke really. Basically everytime I join there are a minimum of 2 people advertising their servers on there. Though I come back a month later and it turns into full on spam advertising of servers. I myself have a chat flooder program, which I rarely touch, but opened it up and used it on the chatbox spamming my server just to see what would happen. Turns out 4 or so of the other people in there also were spammers and immediately spammed their server in response to me. The reason for this little story is I would like to see this website not become that. Good luck! I'll be submitting a texture pack of mine once I get a good chunk of it done.

edit:
oh and add texture pack resolutions of 256x

edit again:
though this mod is small it does intrigue me, consider adding support for it, though it is a WIP so things may change without you knowing: The Moon Mod

yup and I plan to make many more changes that make this world different, mainly in the mobs and items

changed the IP and updated the plugins list

none so far

.●About●.
Iracrade is the fictional world beyond Planet X, so it is Planet XI. Why not Planet X? because we already know some information about Planet X and it would definitely not look like Iracrade. Iracrade is world anything, but like Earth. The water is purple, the clouds are orange, and the grass is sea green. This is not the world you know.

.●To-Do●.
-Finish all terrain textures
-Decide on what mobs will be
-Decide on what some items will be
-Support for The Moon Mod
-Support for The Aether (possibly, it would be a lot more work)

.●Screenshots●.
You can post your own screenshots with this texture pack and if I think they're good enough I will put them up here




.●Donate●.
This mainly goes to keeping my minecraft server up, but it's also the best way to encourage to keep up my work for whatever I've made. Donating $2.50 or more via this link does give you Donator rank on my server also. Thank you in advance for any donations!
