Hello! Sorry for the loss of updates, I've been busy.
The server has gone through some great changes. We have had new players join, new structures built, and new caves discovered!
I would like to make a very important announcement though. As you may know, almost all players have access to being an OP. This gives them the ability to teleport, access to ban hammers, and the power to spawn/hack in items. While at first, the use of spawning was subtle, it has grown into an overused monster.
Do not get me wrong, spawning has not served the server wrong. It's just that the amount of spawning has become a problem. So, without further ado, here are the new spawning rules.
No spawning items except in the following situations:
1: You may spawn as much redstone as you wish.
a: DO NOT Spawn Redstone Torches OR Repeaters!
2: You may spawn (a limited, being confirmed) amount of The Nether object every week.
3: You may be permitted to spawn other objects if you submit a plan to Dr_MadMan, Markdb96, or LotusEliseGeek.
4: Any Player caught spawning illegal items will, in order:
a: Be given a WARNING and will have the item confiscated.
b: A second infraction will be greeted with a gentlemanly CONFISCATION, DE-OP-ING, AND/OR TEMPORARY BAN.
c: Further actions or repeated abuse of rules will result in a PERMA-BAN TO THE FACE.
*These Rules take affect TODAY on February 23, 2011
A gold system is also being worked up for all of the players. This is the basics, and I will update it as I get more information.
DR_MadMan's Server Gold Standard
All Players New and Old Will Get 90 Bars of Gold
Gold Bars may be retrieved at the Bank
Gold Bars may be traded for food, minerals, and other items.
Players may make products for money.
Iron Blocks may be traded as a lower level of currency.
If you find gold, you may keep it.
Thank you for sticking with us as we make some big changes!
