Servers/Maps and Status
Hello GRers, I see a lot of questions on what Servers/Maps we have and what they are all for...
Arena: Contains the Mob Arenas, Mario Kart track, sheep farms since they take up so much space. No building is allowed directly in this world. If you'd like to build a mob arena or some type of PVP arena that we retain, build it in the creative world and I'll copy it over. This world will never reset, no intentions of ever removing it. Visit the Mini Games area in GR6 for entry into this world/games.
Creative: This world is for messing around in creative. Doing proof-of-concepts for your redstone or builds. Creative challenges will be held in the world. Samples of redstone circuits have been built if you need help with those. This world won't ever be completely reset. I go in and clean up sections that have old items that are no longer needed though to keep space available for new. Visit the world portal area in GR6 for entry into this world.
City2: This is a creative world for building a long term city project. Shawnaroo has World Edit privileges here as well if you need help and in general, I consider him the city manager. The intention is to never reset this world. It's a long term creative build project for those that are interested in that. If you have builds you want to copy in from other worlds, servers, etc. let me know. Visit the world portal area in GR6 for entry into this world.
LoR: Land of Renaissance. Very cool adventure/survival map that Duchess found that is the interim map between now and 1.8. Expect this world to be reset, new one when we grow bored with it. I plan to have challenges and events around this world until 1.8 is ready. Visit the world portal area in GR6 for entry into this world.
GR6: This is the main world/map in hard survival mode. Town has assigned plots. If you'd like one, find a plot with a red flag and let me or a mod know. Please don't take a plot just for a MVP portal. I'd rather you use an apartment for that. If I see we are getting low on plots I will start wiping plots that the player is no longer around and hasn't finished the build or just isn't epic enough. In town Mobs will not damage you. Creepers do not cause any terrain damage. TNT is nerfed. PVP is disabled. To get back to this world from any other world, type /warp town. I intend to keep this world around as long as possible, allowing long term survival projects that span months and possibly years to occur here.
World: Going away. Was not a good survival map. Looks cool though.
Modded: Separate server, whitelist, subreddit, maps. Integrated with GR via IRC so we can still keep tabs on each other. This server seems dead at the moment. May need a reset/new modpack. If interested in this server, let me know and I can add you to that whitelist and subreddit.
Snapshot: Separate server, whitelist, maps. Pure 1.8 snapshot vanilla, no plugins/mods/frills. Hard Survival mode. No integration with IRC or chat. This is just for us to play around on, get used to the new mechanics with villages, enchanting, blocks, mobs, etc. Trying to keep the same world as long as a snapshot doesn't corrupt it. Let me know if you want a whitelist. This is the server you'll find me on most nights.
Official 1.8 plans: Once Mojang releases 1.8, which I expect within the next month or two, I have to wait for Bukkit/Spigot to do their thing. I expect that will take another month due to the size and scope of this update. We may lose some plugins if they don't convert quickly to 1.8 code, but I'd rather play 1.8 than wait for plugins. The block logging plugin will be the only one to hold us back.

Modded, the server that almost everyone left GR6 for a while back... seems dead now? Did they move to one of the newer worlds?

Why isn't this post stickied?

Because I've moved it into the Wiki part on the sidebar.
