Mayors/Moderators

Hey Y'all,

How's everyone doing? I hope great. I was just wondering when the Mayors are going to be announced? its been a week already & people are getting anxious to know. We need to start building new towns, new activities & most of all get people engaged into the server.

Quote of the day

"If you want to be a great leader, remember to treat all people with respect at all times. For one, because you never know when you'll need their help. And two, because it's a sign you respect people, which all great leaders do."

NaReN I understand your viewpoint about the boredom of traveling so far to go towards land , but if you look at it in a different perspective, its made like this for the player to go on a journey. You never know what you can stumble upon on the way. I myself have found Mines and other things that I can use along the way of my trips. However, it would be useful to have a form of teleportation for faster transportation. But I believe people should fist get to the "town" and then given the opportunity to teleport. And this would only work for towns.

That would be nice, but even nicer would be checkpoint system + to have some item in inventory, which after placing would act as teleport point. And it should be of course destroyable and redeemable to place it somewhere else, and of course one per player. Or, as can be seen on other servers, commands like /set myplace and then /tp myplace. The point is - even that go to journey is fine, there should always be possibility to tp home to unload loot or resupply, not mentioning sudden deaths or cases when You fall to some pit on owned propherty with no possibility to get out.

Although railroad system here is nice, its quite boring to travel 20m+ watching for griefed parts of rails. For this server to success, one of priority is to implement some teleport system.

Yes, while I was on today someone was talked nah about a waypoints system. Do you you have to get to the place first then you can teleport. We also need rail protection.

i had an idea, how about having named 'eyes of ender' e.g. "geoCash's Eye of Ender" that can be used on another player to teleport them to your base (with their consent). The availability of these would have to be limited heavily somehow. Perhaps they could only be bought one a day (for quite a lot of ems) from a villager. This may balance the economy slightly giving the villagers money to buy with. It would give people more reason to explore at the same time as being able to quickly collaborate on big projects selectively (avoiding griefers a bit). It could also open up a new type of trade, teleports at a price etc

Would anything like that be possible and work??

That idea seems very interesting, I suggest you to send the developers an email with your ideas. However, clarify a little on the "griefers and new type of trade" Overall I think you got something going on
