You make some good observations! The signs thing probably was a bit too much... But I let the taunting get the best of me, and now I'll just have to try and dampen the consequences.
One thing I do have to say though: how would they get into my base? My original question was whether or not my base was unraidable, and although I can definitely tell you think it is NOT unraidable, you didn't say how!
So if you think it can be broken into, can you at least tell me HOW this opposing faction would do it? It's not like they're mods or have access to admin commands... They have
the same resources everyone has but just a lot more of them through money and power. So if there is some glaring weakness I'm missing in the making of my base, could you please please tell me what it is!
I have been playing on a server now for about a month. It is a hardcore faction server. In this time, my two friends and I have made ourselves a faction, and built our base in the middle of an ocean, underwater. Just today, we found a small, unclaimed base in a mineshaft we were going through, and we found that it had a lot of valuable loot! So, naturally, we raided it and left signs taunting the owner to learn how to use /f claim.
Well, the owner of that base got on about 30 minutes later and privately messaged us asking for his stuff back. Obviously we told him no because he should have claimed it. It turns out he is a member of the LARGEST and MOST POWERFUL faction in the server, and that was his private base for his personal loot(again, I have no idea why it was unclaimed). He really, really wants to get revenge. So, we are now enemy factions, and he said it's his sole purpose to find us and destroy our base to get his stuff back. Now that we know he's part of a huge, very rich faction, my friend and I are a little nervous. So, here are the stats of our base, can you tell us if it is impenetrable or not?
-In the middle of the ocean
-20 blocks of water from the surface and 10 from the sea bed
-We have claimed every chunk within two chunks of our base, so it looks kind of like a big square, with our actual home in the very center chunk.
(Diagram for the uneducated; the capital S is where our base is,and the x's are chunks we have claimed)
x x x x x
x x x x x
x x S x x
x x x x x
x x x x x
-Our base is a 12x12x6 rectangular prism with four layers of obsidian on the outside, then one layer of water, and then two more layers of obsidian(you bet that took a long time to mine!).
-There are no notable islands or outcroppings near us for enemies to stand on.
-In this server, lava flow is disabled, so we don't have to worry about that.
-There is no way for us to get inside from the outside. The only way we get in is by teleporting in.
-On this server there, obsidian must be hit with 5 TNT before it breaks. However, as usual, when in water, TNT cannot hurt blocks.
So, what do you think? Is there any way, through TNT cannoning, sand/gravel pillaring, nether portals, ender pearls, or some feasible way that our base could be broken into by an intruder?
Hi, I realize this is a common problem, but I would still appreciate alot of help as it is very important to me that this server works. I have started a 1.2.5 bukkit server with zero plugins which I can easily get on and connect to. However, my friends, one of whom has a cracked account and one who is playing in browser cannot connect. I have tried restarting my computer but to no avail. Any ideas?
Hello fellow minecrafters. I have started a brand new Bukkit server. It was just started today and doesn't have much right now in the way of structures. We are looking for mature, dedicated players to expand our community and have an enjoyable experience playing minecraft. No White-List, anyone is open to join. Most dedicated and contributing player(s) will get op! Look forward to seeing some players on soon!
