I'd probably say either survival vanilla or tekkit!

I'd say survival, but only if a mod would be able to get rid of endermen, i hate them.
When I build stuff I want stuff to remain where I placed it ffs...
Worst mob ever, and I thought creepers were annoying haha.

So, if endermen can't be removed, I'll go with creative. :3


Yepp, another big annoyance.
Meh... Somehow, Minecraft beta was better (pun, ba-dum-tsshh) due to all that. :3

Glassed Silver:mac
when i ran a little server for me and my friends at home for a little while, I used a bukkit plugin called "Mobs" that gave me complete control over mobs, i made it so endermen wouldn't pick up blocks and creepers wouldn't explode, and i turned off ghasts completely

so yeah, I'd definitely recommend this plugin http://dev.bukkit.or...rver-mods/mobs/ best mob control plugin i've used

edit: and the great thing about this plugin is if you disable a mob completely you can still spawn it in manually with eggs and commands

I'd be happy to help building spawn if a server is set up by the way.

use the rule of
/gamerule mobGriefing false
that will disable creepers from blowing up stuff but still damaging you. Not sure if it effects the endermen from moving blocks, wither destroying blocks etc...

K, so far looks to be survival.

Any mod suggestions, would like to keep this low, but of course cause of griefers (this is neowin of course), will need some permission based ones.

bukkit has plenty of plugins to help against griefing so just take your pick :)

and once again, I'd like to suggest tekkit
it'd be nice to have a good tekkit community for once :)

I know it's only me and Brando212 that has suggested Tekkit, but it just adds so much more without making it seem like a totally different game. I think for a tech site it's the obvious way to go. ;)

With big square holes everwhere from everyone setting up construction mines. Farming for diamonds.

Tekkit doesn't work with a large community imo.

Usually when I play Tekkit I build my quarries a couple of blocks underground and then build something on top so that people don't dig down and fall into them :p I do agree that Tekkit with a lot of users can be rather chaotic though, the most I've ever played it with was 10 which was okay but people were always moaning about there not being enough oil, that didn't really bother me though because I usually just use solar power and geothermal generators.

Long story short Tekkit would be cool but I'd play anything really. I probably wouldn't be that active though but I'd definitely pop on from time to time.

would the server be whitelisted? Hope so, would hate to get on the server build, mine a load of stuff then not being able to get onto it again because its full etc...

Survival please, don't really want Tekkit though!

If you run it with Bukkit Server, I could code you a plugin in Java for Bukkit to automatically whitelist and only allow people from neowin.net to access the server.
