The server got off to a good start tonight. No major technical issues, no lag, and had a nice group join up. Had about 8 concurrent players at one time. So far I'm impressed with Minecraft Server Host.
Note that monsters are enabled, however creepers are nerfed (they don't explode, they just die).
8/24/12: The whitelist has been removed. Anyone can now join the server, but will default to a Guest rank without build rights. Read the rules at the spawn and follow the directions to gain a builder rank.
8/19/12: The server has been updated to 1.3.2, and a new survival world was generated (AltairIV).
Server Background:
Forbidden Planet started in February 2011 as a casual survival server, and has since grown into a tight-knit community of mature players. If you're looking for a relaxing place to build in a mostly vanilla environment, you will probably enjoy this server. Everyone here is helpful to each other, and I do my best to provide a stable, lag-free experience.
Worlds:
AltairIV:
AltairII is the main spawn world. It is survival, with some minor tweaks. No items are spawned here, and your inventory is only shared with the Nether/End world.
Morbius:
Morbius is a creative world, available to all. We only ask that you consult with me or the more senior players (Mods) on where you're building, so you don't interfere with others.
Server Features:
- MultiWorld/Nether/End support (via MultiVerse)
- Real-time map with high-resolution textures (flat/3D ISO/Topographic).
- All world actions are logged and can be rolled back easily.
- Experienced and helpful moderators.
- LWC plugin for locking chests, furnaces, doors, and dispensers
Server Rules:
- Be respectful to each other
- Excessive swearing, sexist remarks, and racism will not be tolerated.
- No Griefing (server is running NoCheat, WorldGuard, and LogBlock)
- No 1x1 towers
- Incorporate your builds into the landscape as much as possible (and no floating blocks!)
- No buildings made from dirt or sand. Cobble is ok so long as they are not 100% cobble.
- Replace trees as you gather logs.
- No client-side mods (clipping/xray, flymod, block manipulation, etc). Ban after 1st warning.
- No stealing from others.
In Summary:
The server is well established, is backed up regularly, and operates 24x7. You'll find our staff both fair and willing to listen. We realize that without the community, this server will fail and we're wasting our time. If we can provide everyone with a friendly place to explore and build, then we have achieved our goal. Thanks for reading!
** About the Server name **
If you've seen the classic sci-fi movie Forbidden Planet, you'll remember the alien Krell race, their enormous underground caverns, and the never-ending structures. Exploring the Minecraft world at times reminds us of the Krell and a somewhat alien universe. Hence, the Forbidden Planet name stuck. If you join the server, ask for a tour of Krell City
When you start the bukkit server, is there anything unusual logged at the console?
I assume this is the same physical machine and that you are stopping the regular server first? Unless the server port is unique, they can't run at the same time.
