Neowin.net Minecraft Server (Old Server)

Come join the new Minecraft server discussion thread :)

The server seems to have been dead for a few days now. Every time I look to join there is no-one playing. With no admins around its impossible to get Creative mode, and thus continue the work on the amusement park. Maybe it's time to reconsider the ban on command blocks?

 

Anyway, I'm about to go away for nearly 2 weeks so you probably won't see me online for a while.

 

I play entirely in survival - and will continue too. I've just been getting over vertigo, so haven't been on as a result of that. 3D games still make my head spin a bit.

I know it's a poor excuse not having creative, but some builds just aren't practical without it. I'm currently working on a tower that is 250 blocks high, and lined with coloured wool. That's a little over 5000 wool blocks, dyed in 7 different colours. Collecting that much wool is hard enough. Working safely at that height just adds to the problems. ;)

 

Please don't take this as me moaning. I'm not. I'm very grateful for this server being made available to us, and for the admins helping out when they can. If the decision was made that this server was going to be purely Survival from now on I wouldn't have a problem, and I'd still play - I built virtually all my compound in survival after all.

I'm not a fan of heights (I know that's not the same as vertigo), and crafting at the top of tall structures in Minecraft has made me pause and 'get a grip' on more than a few occasions. If I'm in creative (or when I'm playing Tekkit and have a flying ring) it's much less of a problem for me as I know I'm safe.

Don't get me wrong, I'll gladly give you creative mode when I can - it's difficult to do while I'm at work is all. Slap one of the other ops (i.e. Timan, Laura, Chasethebase, Louisifer) if it's urgent. 

I do hit up any admin (usually Louisifer), but recently the server has been completely empty when I check.

 

Right now however it seems to be dead. Can't log in, nor open the online map. :(

 

The map is being sluggish and just threw up an internal error :o

 

I do check the map every couple of hours to check for players but as you've said it has been empty last day or two :(

 

If creative is needed and you have steam you can msg me (Louisifer) and I'll pop on :P

Is there a way for someone to completely destroy my build and its contents?

 

I want to start a fresh somewhere new.

 

I'll be able to do that for you, I'm currently experiencing read timeouts though :(

Hello fellow Minecraftians!

 

Could I get my mates son whitelisted on the server?

 

his name is :- ItsMagma

 

He's a bit new to Minecraft but i've told him the rules of the server and told him if he doesn't obey he will be banned and his dad will clip him around the ear. lol

 

He's harmless, and should be no bother. Just give him a helping hand if I am not around. :)

 

Appreciated.

I'm not on as often as I used to because of work keeping me rather busy. I'll see if I can come on more often soon.

 

Nuculi: I can whitelist your friend as soon as I'm home, i.e. in about 8 hours from now.

    • Thanks Microsoft but no, I find both iterations of Outlook terrible nowadays and switched back to Thunderbird at home.
    • Happens to the best of us, bro. 😛 
    • Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.
    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
