Additional Information
Retro Lands is a sister server of RetroMC which has been running since 2014 on the Beta 1.7.3 version of the game.
Why you enjoy the server: It's the best experience I've had from minecraft in years. The nostalgia of going back to a previous version is such a great feeling, in addition to the community being amazing as well.
How long have you been playing: Ive been playing since about mind January 2019.
Why you enjoy the server: I enjoy it because it's a nostalgia trip for me and I've always wanted to be in a PVE community that I can just chill and talk in and maybe contribute for some larger projects with other players and just make friends in general. New Minecraft has become too advanced for my taste and this server is a perfect example of how a server community should be.
How long have you been playing: Minecraft 2011, RetroMC earlier today.
Why you enjoy the server: I enjoy this server so much because I really have this thing where I enjoy playing older versions of games and when I saw this on youtube I knew I had to give it a shot. It was worth it because I have met a lot of nice people in my time playing so far like one person who helped me pay for something because I was new. I also am not very fond of the new versions of minecraft and they really disconnected me from the game that I spent hours playing during my childhood. I never saw myself going past version 1.7.10 then I saw this server and was hoping that this would be the server that would get me back into the game that I have loved so dearly.
How long have you been playing: I have been playing the server only for 3 days or most likely 5 by the time anyone reads this but my overall minecraft time most likely could go to over 20,000 hours playing and that may seem like a big number but I have been playing since 2011 and I have sunk my fair share of play time into to this game.
P.S. Thank you for taking your time to look this over.
Why you enjoy the server: I enjoy the server because it is beta, I wasn't around at the beta for the pc as I was 5 and my mum wouldn't let me use the computer so I want to try and live that experience again with other people. I also really like the community, everyone is so nice and the staff are very helpful.
How long have you been playing: I've been playing for about 2 days.
Why you enjoy the server: This server is truly a fantastic way to play minecraft of old with friends in a friendly inviting way. The staff here are very welcoming and enhance the player experience. This server gives the player options on how to play and has things to offer every different type of experience one would want from a minecraft server. From the PvE style overworld to the aggressive PvP style in the nether. The plugins on this server allow players to build up economies through the purchasing of goods, services, and supplies. All of those things I have been able to take advantage of.
How long have you been playing: I have been playing for seven months.
Why you enjoy the server: I enjoy playing a server in beta! i love beta mc and love to play on a server that less rounded-off then other servers (in terms of beta vs 1.14) i really like how nice other people and staff are, and how nice the community as a whole is. the server looks, feels, and plays nice. and i will make YouTube videos on it in the future.
Retro Minecraft is a Minecraft Beta Server currently operating on the version Beta 1.7.3 that is focused on the creation of an awesome PVE Towny experience which allows players to work together. Retro Minecraft is the oldest active Beta server running since late 2014 and in that time has developed an amazing community backing it. RetroMC is designed carefully to bring back Nostalgia while integrating advanced plugin systems to improve a mostly vanilla playstyle. Our development team has heavily customized the software and plugins of Beta 1.7.3 in order to make the most stable server possible in the community.
Our server features many vanilla/standard features as well as many custom features that are normally not available for a Beta 1.7.3 server.
Towny – Allows for a proper management system for player made towns as well as the formation of nations that can work together in order to because of the most influential town.
Economy – Our server focuses a Player Based economy that allows for the easy trading of in-game items while not being controlled by the server allowing the economy to be Dynamic and created by the players. This makes our server much more vanilla orientated and survival friendly.
Custom Drops – Our mobs have rare custom drops that won’t affect gameplay but add interesting elements to the server that users can enjoy. This includes the rare dropping of Double Steps to Fire from Pigman that can be used to craft chainmail. These items often make their way back into the Economy as luxury items.
World Viewer – Allows the viewing of the server from the Sky in which a user can view the entire world by using a google maps like system which provides ultra-high definition viewing of builds and terrain that would be impossible with other similar systems
Dynmap – Dynmap is similar to World Viewer that it allows the viewing of the world except with a few more features. Dynmap allows the viewing of the world allowing you to see players locations on the map, the nether, towns and chat.
Statistics Players Statistics – Our server features an amazing online webpage that allows you to view the statistics of yourself and users online. The webpage can be accessed from anywhere in which a user can access the statistics as seen below.
Custom Plugins and Features– Our server features many custom Plugins and Software to ensure the security of players builds, stability and experience of the server. Our server has custom plugins to allowing Random Teleport, AntiVPN, and many patches to fix crashes and dupe glitches. We have also developed backend software for advanced and encrypted automatic backups that also save to Google and E.T.C in case of server failure. We also created and modified systems to prevent corrupted chunks from destroying users builds. Hosting – Our server uses their own rented Dedicated Servers from OVH and Hetzner in order to host our servers. This reduces the risk of shared hosts and allows for much higher performance on the server.
Rules
1. No hacking, cheating or exploiting including the use of Fly Hacks or Xray
2. No overuse of Swearing
3. No duping or exploiting items.
4. No griefing of any kind except for the Nether
5. Be Respectful

Really wish the forum was run by people who were dedicated to it, instead of businesses.
