Choidoken Posted July 8, 2011 Hey guys, I'm thinking of building an underwater railway track from my strip club to spawn. But I have a feeling I'll break into someones 'secret room/cave'. Strip Club is east of spawn, not very far. Check on the map. Just want to know if everyone's okay with this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tomaterr Posted July 9, 2011 Walked around the server a bit, looks quite impressive. I'd love it if I could get building rights and do some underwater constructions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thompson Posted July 17, 2011 That is amazing. I went on the server today to look at the ruins of my secret project, ive decided to destroy the entire thing and start again in a new area of the map, which I will once again fence off. On an related note, thanks to the asshole who went into the room clearly marked "Control Room: No entry" by destroying part of the wall and flicked the safety lever off and the TNT lever on to see if the TNT would explode. It didn't, you're an idiot, I had more than one level of safety. I was the one who detonated most of the TNT while laying redstone inside the mountain on an unrelated circuit.

tabacco Posted July 17, 2011 Just as a note, people pretty frequently leave signs saying "No entry" or something along those lines as a decorative element rather than a serious warning (for example, they were pretty common in the subways on past servers). You might want to elaborate when you leave signs that people should actually not enter or throw switches. If you're building something you genuinely don't want others to get into, though, maybe a multiplayer server isn't the place to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I concur: "Control room: No entry" reads like universe stuff, not a serious warning. The last server had a sign asking people to wipe their feet, for example. I'd suggest something less likely to evoke a playful reaction, such as: "Project in progress. Please do not build or interact. Thanks." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thompson Posted July 17, 2011 (edited) Well, the fact that they had to pass a fence built around the entire area that says "Thompson's Buildsite: No entry" and then decided to knock through the wall, and then tried to detonate clearly marked TNT is a pretty damning sign of intent, but sure next time i'll mark it more clearly, my mistake. Hopefully it's clear enough this time: Edited July 18, 2011 by Thompson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted July 22, 2011 Looks like another piston issue is breaking the server (somehow causing an unhandled ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException). I'm upgrading to the newest CraftBukkit/Essentials to see if it's worked around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted July 23, 2011 Okay, looks like the server's going to break whenever Thompson820 logs in or anyone goes near whatever he was working on Thompson, would you like me to remove your data file on the server so you're returned to spawn? It'll also clear your inventory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted July 23, 2011 Can't you just reset his coordinates to spawn? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thompson Posted July 24, 2011 Do whatever you have to, I think i'll just wait for the next server incarnation before I build anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted July 24, 2011 Do whatever you have to, I think i'll just wait for the next server incarnation before I build anything else. Okay, well, your position is reset to spawn. Login again if you feel like it, I guess. any ETA on that? On what? Another re-roll? People are barely playing on this one. To be honest, I'm starting to think it might be time to retire the server. I think most people are pretty much done with the game at this point, and it costs me a surprising amount of both money and effort to keep things running when most times it's just me on there anyway.

I'm not playing on in this era because: - right now I don't have a lot of time - sort of waiting for the next update - impending reroll Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

a purple future Posted July 24, 2011 regrettable/ understandable/ I'm part of the problem maybe if the adventure update is interesting enough we might consider tossing a couple of bucks into resurrecting it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted July 29, 2011 Yeah, it might be a thing just to nuke it until 1.8, then maybe one more month before it's gone for good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
