Sweet! thanks for letting me know in advance, now I can prepare myself for it. :ROFLMAO:

Happy halloween to you as well :)!

He has too much time on his hands. :confused:

Decision is made that the new world will run Factions instead of Towny. I'd like to remind everyone that just because a poll closes does NOT mean we can suddenly finish quite a bit of work and roll out a completely game-changing update the minute you guys decide you want us to work on it. So please, stop spamming Amy, Hina, and myself about it! However, if you have any actual questions or suggestions, we're all ears. No suggestion goes unnoticed, even if it goes unacknowledged. ~Thread Closed~

It's a good idea, but honestly, if this popped up on my screen I'd leave the server and never come back. Why not just have a "title" message or whatever they're called appear on the middle of the screen that isn't an overlay instead so we don't spook/jumpscare people or make them feel unwelcome? :p I think the second version looks much better, too.

Yeah I saw what you said, and it is a good idea, but it’s just not possible for us to code our own version of factions. However there is a PVP timer plugin I want to use which should solve the problem of being destroyed as soon as you join the server but that’s it. If you want a peaceful option, the best we can do is have a server for each gamemode

Test Server ➤ Got our test server up. What this means for you is no downtimes when we do things like set up a new spawn for a reset or are making a major update, and also less game breaking glitches since we can test things out before we add them. Towny Server ➤ Added a new tutorial book to /kit starter ➤ Added /vote ➤ Added /vgui ➤ Vote on all three links for 250 credits and 1 Vote Crate Key ➤ Vote for your first time to receive a 1-time bonus of 100 credits, 5 Diamonds, 15 Gold Ingots, and 20 Iron Ingots ➤ Vote 30 times (same as voting on all 3 links for 10 days, and doesn't have to be in a row) to receive a bonus VIP Crate Key ➤ Changed the contents of the voting crate: Removed 64 dirt Removed 32 logs Added "Old Iron Tools" [High Chance] Added "Old Diamond Tools" [Medium Chance] Added 64 Soul Sand [High Chance] Increased the amount of Cacti given from 50 to 64 Iron Ingots and Gold Ingots are now considered [High Chance] items Added 32 arrows [Medium Chance] Pig & Sheep eggs are now considered [Low Chance] items Increased the amount of Ender Pearls from 3 to 5 Increased the amount of Diamonds from 5 to 10 ➤ Changed the contents of the VIP crate: Removed 10 Magma Blocks Added 3 (unenchanted) Golden Apples Changed the amount of Levitation 10 tipped arrows given from 32 to 16 Removed Pet Crate Key ➫ Coming soon: If you vote, you'll receive 1 vote point. There's a vote shop under /vgui in which you can spend 3 points for 1 Diamond. More items will be added to the vote shop soon. We're currently talking about the world reset, adding factions, magic, plus some other features. Also, please vote or comment on the poll about if we should run Factions or Towny, and what other features that you'd like to see added here: ([Poll] Factions or Towny | Xeno Gamers)

Please read before you vote: Factions allows you to claim land from other factions if you have more collective power then they do and allows you to use TnT cannons to bust into other factions and steal their items by blasting open their chests. It encourages large obsidian bases with water surrounding them, and elaborate TnT cannon designs to break though them. It also encourages PvP. Towny completely secures your buildings. TnT won't affect your town (unless the mayor toggles it, but why would you?), and no one can claim land from you. It encourages larger settlements based more around aesthetic design rather than security and practicality. It also discourages PvP. Please leave you comments as well, we can always do something a little different such as keeping towny, but forcing PvP on in all towns.

@Thunder & @YeEternalTuna just so you guys don't feel like you're being ignored, we're currently talking about these ideas now. Unfortunately, that's all I can say for sure about factions idea & the magic idea at the moment. Everything's subject to change at this point. Hopefully we'll get a poll up for them. Thanks for the suggestions, keep them coming! (y)

It should be noted before you vote; there shouldn't be any downtime while we're setting up the new world since I'll have a test server up pretty soon where we can set up things without affecting the towny server itself.

If you don't want your credits, MCMMO skills, and towns you've spent so much time building reset, then don't vote yes for a reset. As @Amylicious said in the bullet points, a reset does mean a reset economy, as well as reset MCMMO skills. Maybe I can help shed some light on the importance of that. I've worked hard to grind skill levels, credits, and work on my town just like the rest of you. Even so, the fact of the matter is; if we carry over existing MCMMO skill levels and/or credits, the game instantly becomes unbalanced to favor those who were around before the reset. This potential reset is part of a larger effort to increase the playerbase. xG Towny is not a private server restricted to members only or anything like that, so it doesn't make sense to carry over stats such as credits or MCMMO skills and give the players who were around before the reset a huge advantage. The only thing this leads to is another reset coming up much quicker than the last, and on and on and on exponentially. Oh, and we might be putting the old map up for download in the event of a reset so at least you can have your builds.

Updates will be posted here on a weekly or biweekly basis depending on how much we're getting done. Smaller, daily updates such as the addition of a new command may be posted in advance on our discord's (Discord - Free voice and text chat for gamers) Minecraft chat channel. Towny Server ➤ Added new items to the in-game shop ➤ Added /mail, /mail send (message), and /mail clear for all users ➤ Added /tpdeny and /tpahere for all users ➤ Changed the in-game /motd ➤ Updated donator perks (Minecraft Donator Information | Xeno Gamers) to include missing perks ➤ Updated the rules guide (Minecraft Server Rules | Xeno Gamers) ➫ Coming soon: We're currently focusing on adding vote rewards as part of our effort to increase the playerbase. We're hoping to have something set up by the end of next week, or possibly much sooner. We're also discussing the possibility of a test server, which will help prevent fatal bugs such as the one which lead to week-long downtimes we recently experienced, and allow us to make updates to the server without having put it offline while we do so. Also, please vote or comment on the poll about a potential server reset here: ([Poll] Minecraft world reset. | Xeno Gamers)

Oh yeah I love this gun because I'm actually a bad sniper. [spoiler=how james blew 20$] 1) What @TheSupremePatriot said is 100% true. No joke, I can hit my shots easier when I know I'm going to hear this. Maybe the tracer rounds are helpful, too, in deterring how far off my shot is if I miss so I can do better next time. 2) It's a direct upgrade to stock. Sure, no-scopes are useful, but half the time you can pull of a quick-scope at close range anyways and tracer rounds are only a problem in competitive games, in which the gun is banned anyways in. 3) Penetrations (lenny) are rare, but when you do get them, they're very cool and you feel like you've just made a major contribution to your team, and the best part is everyone on the server gets to hear that glorious sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlt6EXMGlN8 (headphone warning!) 4) Finally, the gun looks cool. It just does.

What even is the blank thing you put in your post " >https://s9e.github.io/iframe/facebook.min.html#744834992308037 "??? Also thanks for that MLP nightmare fuel :wtf: You're on a roll this week, by the way. :hilarious:

Welcome, you seem friendly. :)

.... Who's in charge of our social media again?

@LAN_Megalodon Icirrus city is great idea. @OneGlove all of those look great, but I agree we might want to stick to smaller maps, so some might be too big. Besides the ones already brought up, here's my top 3: Sootopolis City Mt. Pyre (Also Mt. Coronet is cool) Victory Road (XY or ORAS) The XY league castle might be cool, too. Also all of these have great music to them, too :emoji_smile:

Yeah, me neither! No idea where that came from, I must be tired. :whistle::coffee:

Happy birthday, you wonderful chronic spammer. (y) It's always been a pleasure to visit your profile and listen to what plays.
