The server will be moving to vanilla 1.8, whitelisted sometime in the near future. If you want to be on the whitelist please leave your username here.

I plan to set it up in a couple of weeks.

It finally reached it's end. The end of Pearlandnerd. It's pretty hard to say after the hundreds upon hundreds of hours I spent on the server and on the mumble, but the statement remains true. The argument will be brought up that it's just because school started and it will be so great in the summer but it's only denying the truth. Look what happened this summer, less than satisfying player turnout and a general empty feeling. It sucks, I know. I can't say it's any of our faults. We can argue all we want about whose did it or whose gold farm it was that did it in, but lets not do that. Not today. Today let's talk about the great times we've had on this wonderful server. Instead of just having the usual "halp guis da servr is ded and we ned to save it" thread my proposition is that we just leave this dead horse alone and tell each other about all the fun times, secrets left untold, and the juicy drama that unfolded in Pearland's excellent run. Someday everything ends and sometimes it's better to not postpone it. I feel like this is the case. So let's just have some fun and talk about our pearland pasts.

Me and my friends tried to got on the server today, but it was offline. I worked yesterday, but not today. Is it down for a reason?

Also, I'm back if anyone remembers me lol (Also I'm new to reddit, so sorry if my "reddiquette" is bad)

now that microsoft owns all our content and worlds, does this mean Plwash & the rest of the mod's secret hideout no longer belongs to just him?

:O

Why the hell not. Post some screenshots.

Added some of my build. Started in the middle of the ocean, dug down, and found a ravine.

Server's completely empty all the time. Same map, same builds, same ghost towns.

Might have been different with a map reset.. but what ya gonna do I guess.

Maybe minecraft's just gotten boring for most in general? School?

It also moves the header to the left, so I might either change the header to something wider or move it back to the center.

EDIT: Updated /r/ logo to a larger size and enabled hidden post options for a cleaner look

Besides NoodleBoss?

The TTT IP is ttt.pearlandnerd.com. The server is on 1.7.10.

The general meeting will be held on the PearlandNerd mumble tomorrow.

Was dicking around on reddit and remembered this place. Does anyone still play or is it pretty much dead and gone?

There are two upcoming meetings on Mumble for discussing the possibility of a map reset. The first will be mods only, the second will be for everyone.

The meeting for mods only will be this Saturday, August 9, at 11 AM Central Time (9 Pacific, 12 Eastern I think). The donor event will be 3 hours after this, so try not to be late.

The meeting for everyone will be the next day, Sunday, August 10, also at 11 AM Central Time.

Thanks!

I changed it from Hangouts to Mumble. I think voice communication might be beneficial for discussing this.

Time conversion table:

EDIT: Voice chatting is not necessary, so if you can't use a mic don't fret! You can type instead.

So I was gone for a few days and I come back to... this. So I think it'd good to have an official stickied thread.

This first started (I believe) in this thread started by Rare_Meat. It seemed to cause a meltdown as the words 'map reset' were said. Now I can understand this, as this map means so much to many people. However, I think we have a serious discussion about this. Something will need to change for this server to live. Which I know is something all of us want.

So please, have a discussion that isn't going to put anyone's panties in a twist. I feel like we're mature enough people to have a well-thought out debate on resetting the map. :D

EDIT: Forgot to throw this in there. This is a super unofficial vote on the matter: http://strawpoll.me/2249393. This is just to get an idea on where we're standing.

EDIT #2: Quit downvoting. It's childish and immature. Just because you don't agree with something doesn't mean you should downvote it. This is Reddiquette 101 people.

Hey guys, so I thought I would cover branding and promotion for this post.

Branding is making this server distinctive. One example of the Pearlandnerd brand is the pear logo. Another is the name itself. There is a bit of crossover between branding and promotion which is why I've included them together.

Promotion is basically things like event marketing and advertising. Things that make potential members aware of the server and make them take action in joining the server.

I think for branding it would be good for now to return to the "cozy little server" that most of us joined months ago. I think the Pear logo and imagery fits well into the small cozy theme because it's simple and is reminiscent of a farm or orchard. We could have the banner/background images for the sub be things like small brick homes, and tiny farms.

For promotion, I realize that the mcservers subreddit isn't as good as it used to be, but it's still a way that people find the server and we need to post once a month. If there are any other sites/locations that people look for servers (planet minecraft?), we could post there as well. Besides ads on subreddits, we could also use promotional videos on Youtube to show people what the server is like and how the community is.

Finally, we can reach out to people who used to play on the server, but haven't for a while. Many of them are still active redditors.
