*** Official OcUK Minecraft Server - Discussion and Rules ***

To keep it short: so long as I can somehow keep my items/chests, I don't care.

Snap - I don't really want to loose my stuff that I spent ages gathering. That happened on Entrox/Scrapheap Server and it p*ssed me off big style

Edit: Plus it there any chance of having a good advance warning of when the map wipe is going to happen? Really upsetting to go on-line and realise that everything has vanished and the thing you have been thinking about building all day has gone

Mob arena is temporarily disabled due to some issues. It should be back in a couple of days.

It may be that Creative isn't compatible with it. What are people's thoughts about removing it (Creative)?

Nooo! Can access to the mob arena commands not simply be disabled while in the creative world in the same way the /i command only works in the creative world?
 
Bleh.. As fun as talking about people engaging in sex with other people's mothers is...

1.8 and 1.9 possible map wipe. Discuss.


Works here have a spanner :P

Well i believe i made my self clear.
If there is a wipe ok it was going to happen eventually.
I will accept a wipe but ask the admins do help us in some land plots.

- like a flatting of area's to make up for lost time. (1 per player)
- At a later date to do a block conversion for our builds. (1 per player)
- Have welcome chests made for all players
- players that have donated have their chests upgraded.

I think that is probably the best compromise for a loss of so much work.
 
How about if no items are brought across?

I'm not saying anything in particular will or won't happen atm. It's all up in the air.

I'd probably stop playing tbh.. as rash as that sounds.. I said the same when it was mentioned on the server a couple of weeks ago, joach said the same at the time.

I see it as two options for keeping items:

1) Main map = 1.8/.19, other map accessed via a portal for a limited time = old map. You can move through the portal and transfer your items to the new world until the time limit is up, a few days or whatever.

2) Use the pantheon (which is stuffed full of chests already) and allow people a few days to trasferr their items into there - then an admin worldedits the pantheon into the new map (1.8/1.9 etc).

For me it would be a huge blow to the time i have put in but well if a complete wipe and nothing given to replace it. Fine i am ready for a new start
i still think the last post i made is one of the best options. if there is to be not porting of items.

other wise tostrings option is a good one a portal and let us do the work our selfs

Another possible option:

Keep current map and get a new one but no shared inventories between the two maps.

I'm just trying to throw some ideas out here really. There are advantages and disadvantages to all options (both from a player and admin view point).
 
One other thing... Moving builds or doing work to flatten land/etc is an extremely unlikely outcome compared to keeping a world and/or wiping stuff. Moving the pantheon is a possibility if we did wipe, I guess.

For this option I'd stay in the old map and just make do with the unstable land for exploring 1.8/1.9.

Ps, this is kinda what I meant about the lack of a 'poll' option on LT, this would be perfect for it I think.

I'd love to run a poll but in some ways I'm not sure it'd help matters much more. If, for example, 75% of people voted for a complete wipe we would still probably have a significant minority of players extremely annoyed at losing their builds.

I guess what I'm trying to work out is a fair middle ground for everyone.
 
Another thing (just to spam the thread more).

From what I understand there are probably major changes to the map generation in both 1.8 and 1.9 updates. Would people prefer a new world generated for 1.8 and then this new world wiped and regen'd for 1.9 or wait until 1.9 or...something else?
