OcUK Minecraft Server - Rules & Chat

Actually jmiller although 10s of people may have offered to pay, when I made an appeal at the end of January for donations only 3 people contributed anything. I'm not using the lack of donations to justify anything, I said at the start I'd pay for the server and donations were a bonus. I'm just pointing out that people don't want to pay.

Are people under the impression that I have a magic grief vision that let's me know who did what? With Minecraft software as it is just now and the plugins available it is nearly impossible to do unless you catch someone in the act. Restrict whitelist? How do we reall know who is trustworthy, as I pointed ou in the past some longer term "respected" members have been caught.

I didnt see this appeal, that's fair enough. However people would gladly pay. What's a couple of quid from 10-20 players if it means a grief-free server? it's nothing, people will pay it. But what, then, if people do pay? will that change your opinion on the moderation in-game ?



No, the server-side software is a shamble right now, it's obvious there isnt much that can be done. however other severs do handle moderation quite well, so i dont know - maybe you are missing something, be it a mod or a piece of software or something. Regardless though i still believe this server, now more than ever, needs a team of people with powers to remove the burden of in-game moderation from yourself.

Very few Minecraft servers have the whitelist we do ;)
 
The server is down whilst I figure out what is happening.

As people seem to be ok with the idea of paying for a server then that's great. The difficulty will be setting the monthly payments at a level that means griefers won't be willing to pay it but aren't too steep. Extra payments from members also opens up opportunities to take extra guaranteed CPU/RAM usage from Multiplay which should increase the servers power and remove the lag issue.

Regards moderators, I'm open to suggestions on who would be a good moderator. They would be expected to intervent in player disputes, uphold the server rules and handle generating the cartograph. They would also have access to the server logs and be able to backup/restart the server as required.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to get it on frenchtart's dedi?

If the players wish to switch to FTs then again, it's an option. Monies gathered could go to increasing server capacity or perhaps keeping a seperate free 2 play server going for people who don't want to/can't pay a monthly fee.

On another note the server is back up and running

One thing that stands out with those files - 25 of them are only recording what they've written on signs. NOTHING ELSE. No blocks destroyed/created.
So I've you've had a block put down, or destroyed in your house, and bbhere shows zip - it's one of those 25 people, who for whatever reason, aren't being recorded.

So many that is something the admins can look into fixing/restarting.

Should be fixed now, it's an issue with how bigbrother mod "watches" players and "see's" players.

Oh and minecraft.net seems to be buggered
 
It should only be newer whitelisted players who weren't logged as ti doesn't appear to auto-update >.<

But everyone on the whitelist is now on the bigbrother watched list so everyone is recorded.
 
Frenchy, can you signup for Multiplay and I'll let you login so you can download the world files and we can test migrating the map across. Email your Multiplay email once your signed up

Cheers

Done, if you follow the Multiplay links to Clanforge you should be able to access the server. Once logged in, go to Files and World Backups. The newest one should be at the top but there are dated and timed. Be warned, it's now nearly 700mb just for the world files.

I just did a backup now at 22:34.

Once we've got the world working on your server we'll have a testing period for the rest of the week where I will shut down the Multiplay one so that players have to logon to LinkTart so we can see how it runs and if it affects your other servers.

You can also copy the whitelist under Profiles -> Edit -> Whitelist.txt

So anything we do now won't be on the new server?

Well anything you build on the Multiplay server will stay, however for FrenchTart to copy the world there has to be a cutoff. As I said there will be a testing period once we get the world copied over before a final decision is made.

Can you copy theses files over to your server they are found here.

Files > (under type tab) Cuboid Data, there are 3 files they are what keeps the vaults on the server secure using the Cuboid mod.

It may work it may not but worth a try as not everyone who has a vault is going to have time to move there stuff.
Thanks

This should work because afaik Cuboid is up and running on Bukkit
