Map Thoughts: What to do now?

[Vargess]

Ok so we're working on ways to keep things going while we wait for things to stabilize before bring back our maps, or even starting with new ones. So I want to get a poll going on what people think we can do in the mean time. There are several options we can do, but if you have a different thought, then post that here so can discuss and consider it!
I don't know at this point if we can bring back our old 1.7 server, because everyone has updated. It could create a headache for a lot of members..

 

[cikkirock]

as multi world is working, why not create a Creative/games world, a PVP world and a survival world?
Would make up for basically all genres of people

 

[SgtSpike]

We should clarify that, if we did add a non-PvP world, we wouldn't be able to roll back any griefs. So it'd be a non-PvP world with no griefing allowed, but no way to catch people who griefed (unless you capture them on video griefing). This is the main reason we have only done a PvP world up to this point.

I would prefer we keep the current temp map, and then immediately when 1.9 comes out restart a new temp map until 1.9 is stable enough for a non-temp map.

 

[Marine05]

Im up for 1.9 as soon as its Officially released. Not everyone will know how to get to the pre releases and we dont want to make it hard for anyone to get on.

I voted to bring back the 1.7 server. It was stable then and many people have saved their 1.7 files.

 

[bobodamonkey]

I voted for a creative world... but a survival would be good as well. I just want to be able to explore the new features of the update, as well as build structures without them being griefed.

 

[SgtSpike]

It's a good thing the votes aren't split in a four-way tie for what to do or anything...

 

[lordikon]

If we do a non-PVP now we'd have to make sure all the mod tools were working again, or people would just have to accept that they could be griefed and that the mods might never find out who did it. It would basically be like the first couple of maps a year ago. I guess it worked out alright then, that was my favorite time on the server.

 

[PD400]

Meh, just revert to 1.7 so people can work on their projects if they want to.

 

[IJinksI]

I voted 1.7, I'm sick of doing temporary things that won't be saved....feels like a waste.

 

[Marine05]

It's a good thing the votes aren't split in a four-way tie for what to do or anything...

Luckily they're not, its a 5 way tie.

And its really hard to come to a solid conclusion with so many options.. It now looks like more want 1.7 back.. it got the most votes, but then thats only 4 out of 12, with the other 8 wanting new maps

 

[PD400]

But look at it this way Marine:

4 for new maps, compared to 3 for any other option. :3

 

[lordikon]

It'd be nice if we could run multiple versions at once. Could we bring back 1.7 and put the temp map on a different IP like we've done in the past?

 

[IJinksI]

I asked that before lordi, Sgt said he doesn't want 2 servers up at the same time again, but maybe he'll change his mind?

 

[SgtSpike]

We potentially could. It's just, several of the plugins utilize the same ports/resources, so we'd need to make sure that there's no conflicts between running two servers at the same time. More than likely though, 1.7 would go on the different port, so that new players could still connect to our server on the default port.

I voted for a non Pvp world, not everyone likes PVP, and with people camping the spawn castle new players can't really get out, if we could add a survival-type world perhaps with griefing allowed because all our plugins aren't yet up, i think it could make people more happy, especially the people who despise PVP.

Something like this should be easy to accomplish. Well, easy relative to all the other ideas.

 

[legionaire]

Sounds like a ton of work to do this. Vote to wait it out.

 

[IJinksI]

I just noticed, "keep what we have" and "do nothing" are the same thing aren't they?
