That's not my house.

So this afternoon I was just walkin around Valor minding my own business when I see this... I think Notch logged on the server and took a dump or something.

JF broke Minecraft

Also the powers that be closed my PE on the "For Valor" stuff.
All it said was that they closed the ticket with the note "spelling words on ice is not allowed"

I swear they must spend <5 seconds on each PE they handle. If it's easier to just close it they'll do it if the petition in question is in a gray area

"spelling words on ice is not allowed"

Where does it say that in the rules?

 

[mdperk2]

It doesn't. They just make up arbitrary rules going on what they think at the time, but they don't ever outline it clearly enough. For all I know, they've told 30 other people they can't spell out words but it's not clearly defined in the rules so no one knows.

The closest thing I've found is that you can't have pixel art, but they're referring to giant Mario 8-bit statues, and other images made out of pixels.

This is the same kind of situation as the stolen power rails. Because the mods are all a bunch of teenage/young adults they don't really care about what is right, they care about what is easy. It was proven today that someone can go and steal a bunch of power rails and get away with it. Me and KP spent a LOT, and i mean a LOT of time and resources to create a rail system. That rail system was crippled by a greedy kid who decided to steal the powered rails, and all he got was a warning? It doesn't matter what the cost of the rails were, it matters that he basically got away with it, and gets to keep his stolen loot with no negative consequence but a slap on the wrist. Meanwhile all of the time and effort that we put into that rail line is now for nothing, unless we spend an equal amount of resources to reconstruct it back to it's original state. So in reality, only we are punished. The perpetrator comes out ahead, and gets some money out of it, and we get negative time and energy. That is the definition of unfair

Back in the day, our railway was a secret, you had to go underwater to get to it, and it was very uncommon for something to happen to it

then we decided to make it public, made a public entrance, put in the shops,

since then it has been nothing but trouble.

rails get greifed/stolen
people leave pathways open onto the rails so you get stopped by a skelly on your trip to 1.8 lands
people break the redstone circuits that power the rails and don't repair
people leave crap on the rails, like cobble which stops the minecart as it goes past
and in general, the area around the rails is more heavily mined than most other areas

what I'll probrobly do, is start a tunnel in an undisclosed location, that is less mined, move the whole system of rails to there

I don't understand why we are "soft" on greifers, there is no end to minecraft players, people turn 14 every day you know. My experience on every multiplayer server is the same, admins talk about in the rules and in game how they are so tough on greifers, but then warn them multiple times before anything ever happens, god only knows what the admins don't find out about, it kind of puts a bad taste in the mouth of good players who wouldn't dream of greifing

I think that you should handle greifing as follows.

The first time you get caught, an admin pops you into a jail that you can't recall out of that is in the center of zeal, then they take your entire storage room and empty the contents out into a massive pile in zeal and alert the server to come get it

the next time you just get a permaban


keep shining herocraft

Well hell i see every one else posted up pics of themselves. This was a fishing trip last summer, caught this bad boy in the texas gulf.


Out at the range with some buddies, this is much more recent

You gotta admit, catching that split second with the action back and the shell poping out is pretty bad ass haha

 

[kperkins1982]

since he's a wrestler he caught it with his bare hands, just reached in and palmed it like in the pic

then a minute later he bit into it raw and ate it there like a real man

 

[Watter_Bottle]

LOL well i actually raped it first but for the most part you got it right

 

[Plasma78]

[Watter_Bottle]

Instead of complaining, PM the admins about it or something. If they ban you, then we'll all go to some other server I guess.

It really pisses me off when admins can't handle a server due to laziness/not enough staff.

 

[Plasma78]

i agree, contact admins, or higher mod. Its technically greifing according to server rules.

they removed powered rails which ruins the system and hard work, zeal rails are protected via region. If i came across a rail system, i wouldn't steal the rails, it took time to make and place much like a house, or structure. plus its a dickish move to take them.

The players guilty of this should be dealt with more severely then being warned.
I see alot of players violating the rules daily, in chat and in game.
There needs to be more conformity when applying the rules, in chat or in game.

Warnings will be given for any infringement as follows.

• First warning: Player receives a warning.
• Second warning: Player receives a 3-day suspension.
• Third warning: Player receives a 1-week suspension.
• Fourth warning: Player receives a 1-month suspension.
• Fifth warning: Player receives a permanent ban

this post is not meant to offended or accuse anyone, its only my thoughts.

Hell, I didn't even know you "thought" Plasma lol. Guess there is something going on up there...

 

[Keysersoze09]

Just so everyone is aware, once the 4.3 patch dies down a bit on WoW, Seidrina and I will be on more often. Tryin' to get a guild goin' and all that jazz.

Best pic I have of me at the moment:

Haven't been in this topic in a while, noticed you have an issue with power rails.


My suggestion to you if pe'ing isn't enough. Do /list and find a mod or admin online and /tell them what's up. They can come over there and rollback your rail way. It happened to a friend of mine who had his own personal railway /w power rails, it got griefed, he reported it, the dude got warned but the rails were still gone. I messaged brutal about it and got it all fixed up.


Don't doubt the staff won't do it. It's not about what is easy or convenient, or about not having enough people. We have staff apps for a reason, any and all mods you see thought hard about it and accepted the job of mod+ because they wanted it. To make herocraft a better place!
