i like that but I would want to wait until its been updated to the newest version

[rev_xpurple]

I'm still looking at seeds.  So much fun.  I have no idea how many thousands I've generated so far trying to find the perfect one

Seriously, it's addictive.  I've spent several hours a night the last week doing this.

Hey! we could potentially have a big map room, marking all the player homes. Or at the very least map out spawn in great detail! https://youtu.be/o1rbBauBMEU

Technically, we alread have a big map room that marks all the player homes. It's called the dynmap. :p

[Hippiecheese]

Well yeah but.... I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS REALLY COOL OKAY!?! Don't you sit there judging me with your big fancy map that doesn't take literally forever to build and make.

[theribz]

another suggestion to the new map is to add some kind of voting reward system for voting on different MC server websites to promote the server, it attracts alot of new players and i think general activity would increase then aswell.

also

weekly competitions, i've been playing on another server for a couple of weeks now and they have weekly competitions, like most jumps, most skellies killed or this weeks comp is diamond ore collected.
this makes it still fun and relevant for old players and just all around fun!

just some suggestions, what do you guys think?

[Hippiecheese]

Well the thing about attracting new players is Imgurcraft is for Imgurians I believe. Advertising everywhere kind of defeats the purpose of there being Imgurcraft. I like the competition idea though!

Can I keep the stuff in my enderchest? I don't like grinding for tools and stuff.

We discussed this idea on the server several days ago: Maybe you could provide two teleport blocks to each player after he/she played for a set period of time, mined X blocks, gained X exp or something. One block would be the personal teleport block which you can port to anytime, the second would be a public teleport block where other players can teleport to from the capitol. You are free to place them when and where and if you want.

Personally, this is a big no no for me. First off al, like cheese said, this would defeat the purpose of an imgur based minecraft server. The "official" imgur gaming community created a minecraft server as well (Because they're useless and can't google "imgur minecraft server", smh we're literally the first result), and soon began promoting the server on other sites because the admin wanted to bank off the fact that he had a big starting community that would attract more players. I played there a little bit and let me tell you, it was noticeable when people didn't find it through imgur.

This is because, most importantly, the reason we have such an adult community is a direct result from being imgur based. It's the little kids that don't read rules, refuse to take others into account and spout nonsense in chat that look for servers on those sites. It's not that I'm against advertising per se, I'm mostly against it knowing the type of people it's going to attract. More players would be great, but not at the cost of losing our entire personality as a server.

Furthermore, that server is even deader than our server now, because the people who wanted to play on an imgur-based server were no longer playing on an imgur-based server and just left. It would increase player activity by completely replacing the current community.

With a map reset, player inventories get reset, including ender chests, sorry. I'm usually very quick at getting geared up though, so I could probably lend you some basic tools very soon into the map's existence if that strikes your fancy.

I'm not sure how possible that teleport system is, even if we were to allow it. It just sounds a lot like the /home commands which we're trying to avoid in order to stay vanilla. The one thing I can think of that still feels "vanilla" is personal end portals. People could meet in the end to trade, and leaving the end would immediately send you back to your own base (assuming your bed is in your base) again. This would allow player interaction without having to introduce something incredibly abusable like teleportation.

As for teleportation.

I like the idea of having a main spawn city, and then four other smaller spawn cities like we do now.  I would be ok with having teleport blocks to and from those locations.

As for personal teleport blocks, I would prefer to avoid it as fish says, it removes the vanilla feel.

[Hippiecheese]

OOOOOOOH in honor of the new update, maybe spawn should be underwater? or maybe one of the other cities?

[rev_xpurple]

I can't give you specifics, but there are fun things planned

[Hippiecheese]

OOOOOOHHHHHH I LOOOOVE FUN THINGS!~
