Some of the world backups from the end of last year are available for download on the Legacy Worlds wiki page.
These include:
Build7
Build7_Nether
Survival5
Survival5_Nether
Survival5_The_end

So as we move to 1.13, these plugins (and the worlds they support) are going to have to go. They aren't available for 1.13, so we have no choice but to get rid of them.

It seems likely that both will be replaced, though with what and when is still to be determined. If you have any suggestions, feel free to reply to this and let us know.

Update: Aggressive mode has been removed from both Zombie and Skeleton pets for the time being.

Please note that if you have set your pet to aggressive mode it will attack anything that isn't a tamed pet. This includes villagers and livestock. Please be aware of this, as your pet slaughtering animals/villagers on claimed land is the same as you doing it.

There are a lot of moving parts to the upcoming upgrade to 1.13 on the server. This is a general overview of what is going to happen and when. I'll start with a brief summary, then go into more detail below.

Summary

Hardcore and Flatlands are being removed. Projects has already been removed.
Build, Resource and Survival are being reset.
The versions of build and survival worlds that will be available for download have been archived.
A public works world (overworld, nether and end) will be added for public farms and group builds to persist.
Everyone will have access to bottomless chests during the transition and for a limited time afterward.
There will be a process for players to save important, non-trivial builds and have them migrated to the new maps. See below.

Timeline

August

Hardcore and Flatlands worlds will be removed, along with associated plugins.
Build and Survival worlds have been backed up...

Vaults world will be phased out, to be replaced by Bottomless Chests

Vaults world is going to be phased out, probably sometime in the next few months. There is no timeline currently but there will be an announcement once one is set. We will NOT be deleting your items, or the world itself, but after the cutoff it will become fairly difficult to access them.

Donors now have access to a new plugin called Bottomless Chest. Click the link to see the wiki entry for more information.

Hey Everyone! Get ready for another public farm building project! (Scroll to the bottom to see how YOU can get involved today!)
With the success of the slime farm in mind, we've decided to start the planning process for the public blaze farm. This is a project that everyone is welcome and encouraged to get involved with....

Here are the most recently additions and changes to the server, most recent first.
Links go to the full posts.

BottleExp - convert XP back into bottles o' enchanting to sell, use for mending, safely store, etc.
Armor Stand Editor - Easily manipulate armor stands to do amazing things (Boxland only).
Head Database - Thousands of custom heads to use in creative builds (Boxland and Creative).
Home Invites - Any player can use /sethome to set a home, then invite other players to visit.
WorldEdit in /boxland - all users can now use worldedit on their claimed plots in boxland....

And the winner is.... Cakle!

The contest is over, but the plots will be left in place if you'd like to see what the builders came up with.
/warp buildcontest1 to see the plots

Theme was Winter/Spring (use one, the other or both).

Server

• Updated to 1.12.2!

General

• @MajorWumpus is now an admin

Just a quick update. It has been a while, but I've finally been able to update the server to the latest version without having to break everything. It would have happened sooner, but that nasty real-life server that we're forced to 'play' on kept getting in the way.

Nevertheless, there are more changes coming soon, some of them rather... major (pun intended ), so stay tuned!

Effective immediately, I am promoting MajorWumpus to administrator. He will mostly be working on the gameserver side of things. Please congratulate/welcome him to this new role!

He will be able to more effectively push forward the project to revamp the server and community here, and hopefully that will continue to inspire others to help out on it as well. I know us other admins have been too bogged down in "real life" stuff to be as effective as we really need to be, so I am counting on Major to help us move forward!
