I hear you, Fish. Real life catches up with all of us sometimes. (Now where are those resumes I need to send...)  I'll send you a /tp request next time I see you on. I don't think I've seen Oakvale in its entirety yet. By the way, thank you so much for starting this topic! It gives me something good to read whenever the server is down. And truthfully, I never imagined I would be involved in such an online community as Noobstown.

"I need food!"
As a strict solo survivalist, I've told myself I'd never use chat except when I really needed it. Nor interact with any player. And yet, the monotony of grinding/mining/farming forces me to constantly monitor Gen Chat (and, in the process, get entertained by what they're saying). About a week ago, there was this one kid who asked about where they and their friend can call home. Nothing big; the mods took care of it. The kid still decided to build a house in the mining world. "Hm. Good luck with that."

The next day, I was in my secret hideout, harvesting wheat... When the same kid calls out, "I'm hungry!" And I dismissed it, thinking, "Meh. I survived two real life days on zero hunger. Deal with it!" After several minutes, the kid calls out again. "I need food!"

"Alright! Just this once, Gen Chat!"

That second request broke down my solo-play resolve, and I prepared for tpa with some food. For a few reasons: (1) I was just then harvesting wheat to make bread, (2) the kid's new AND lived the mining world, (3) the kid had a friend, and (4) nobody responded after several minutes.

The next thing I know, we were mining for diamonds, then end stone, then netherrack. Poor kid fell into lava three times. The next day, I found out he joined a town--one that I would eventually call my second home town. There in New Caprica, I made another friend, and the three of us would go fishing or do MA together. I'd jump in to lava for them any time---well, provided I have my current set of Fire3 D Armor and have water set for /home .

Deep in my heart, I'm still a solo-player. But when people need help and I got resources, it's hard to decline their request 

Time to get writing...

I joined noobstown in August 2012. I started out living in a unofficial village made by a player named tman65o or something. I had not set my home there so I could never visit again due to his secret coordinates and lack of being online. Eventually I helped make an unofficial town dubbed "Ironforge". It was great until a group of griefers slowly griefed the town to rubble. I was the last to go. Ironforge was in a super-griefed state when I left. Shortly afterwards I joined Oakvale. It was a bustling town full of shops, restaurant, houses, and farms.
Sadly, I was not rich with only 67 noobs and plots were 750 noobs so, I moved out of Oakvale to spawn, wandering for towns. One day I met a seemingly rich player named coolquote. I teleported to him whenever he was on. I did this to investigate a new town, Nova. I later joined Nova, your first plot was free, and built my first 1 story home. I made my way to the shop district and bought a shop plot for 300 noobs. The building on it was taken down and I built the first Meep Market. Not realizing I was one of the first 50, It felt like it was a huge bustling metropolis. Later on, I got the creator of Ironforge, Tannin, and a former Ironforge
resident, bowseat, to join Nova. We had fun, while the a whole new part of Nova was being made. Castles arose as well as a new town farm, 2 new residential areas and a new vault. I grew richer to 10,000 noobs.
Finnaly, my time had come, Lord supersourmonkey would train me to be a TA. Now this is where I stand...the beginning of a Redstone Era...

Here is my simple story.
I was hacked by gingar444 then banned for being hacked....
****...

i first joined noobstown 3 weeks ago and and loved playing here ever since when I first joined I had no idea how to join a plot or where to build so I asked around couple of days. my first day I was only looking for a fun server where you could do what you wanted when you wanted. this server provided that well so I stayed. the next day I was digging a nice mine shaft in the mining world and collected a lot of stone. when a player said on the general chat that he had no idea how to make a fountain.  so I offered to help. when I got there I immediately got to work and the end result was a well constructed fountain that I was proud of. Unexpectedly He paid me 500nbz for the work. I then started looking for  a good town to join which is where I found Ocean view my building is now the 3rd tallest there and can produced about 2 stacks of bread every time I harvest wheat. It also has a melon, pumpkin, and sugar cane farm on top so Expect me to be selling pumpkin pies 

The Fall of The Meep (Part 2)

Many weeks had passed since the [Guest] meepdoodles had logged on. I have grown to the rank of VIP. The town Nova mentioned in Part 1, has stopped growth. My 1st Nova home is now a monument of 1.2.5. I have an embassy plot, as well as 2 other regular plots. I have recruited Minecraftguy5703 to Noobscraft.

Return of The Herobrine

It is now Noobsween. I went to the Nether on a cool fall day. I had walked about 6,000 blocks. I came across a Nether Fortress. I went inside, into the main stairwell. Then, I saw The Herobrine. There was an alter there. I cringed my player, as he seduced me into a sub-Herobrine. I was forced to boast full white eyes for all of October.

The Death of a Kind

I was lonely. It was early November. Meep Inc. had been crushed under the force of fire, and explosives. I will have revenge. I will bring back Meep Inc. I am the bomb. I am the last of the first 50 Nova residents.

It's always tough when your Noobie friends aren't online. It's worse when they leave.

Relics
Less than a week ago I said good-bye to one of my first friends in Noobstown. She said she was gonna leave the server. She had me rummage through her chests and pick things I want to keep. I took some valuables and enchanted tools for safekeeping, in case she decides to come back. I also took the full blue-dyed enchanted armor set she intended to give to our other friend (who hasn't been coming on for unknown reasons). I'll spare the rest of the details. After declaring a drop party at spawn and leaving a note to our other friend, we went to a town she planned on building (but never finished). She put her far disc in a jukebox and we just walked around the empty plots in bittersweet silence for what seemed like an hour. Finally, as the sun was rising, we said our good-byes.

And just as soon as the music faded, she was gone.

I took the far disc from the jukebox and proceeded to make a time-capsule chest for her at /home. I thought and thought of what memorial to build for her and our other friend. And now, I've finished it.

I told davisj123 who told Patrick

I first found out about this server when I was on a server and someone advertised it as a habit I kept the server ip just in case I got board and decided to try a new server. Well that day came when team AVO decided that it was time for the sever that I was on to get greifed it got greifed so bad that they shut down nervier to reopen again so I went to my list and saw this so I decided to try it out I joined jan 30 2012 and found a nice loving server unfortanetly there was a glitch and It kept me as a geast well a couple months back I decided to try doing it again and it worked with the help of twistedlover at first I dident know we're to start intill ummfredfelizo sent me a msg asking if I needed a town I evententualy got a plot and made my house and expanded to 4 plots if it wasn't for ummfredfelizo or twistedlover I would probably be on another server not having as much fun
Thanks to those who help spur a fun journey in minecraft for me I am forever in debt
Now I am a owner of a town named bossville right near spawn 

My story is a fairly long and sad one, as I have been on very long and seen many good and bad things on this server (good outnumber bad 1000 to 1). It all started when I joined Minecraft in February 2012 after hearing my friends talk about it and watching them play it. In teh beginning of April, I hear some friends of mine (Flyinghotdog1, JacksonMCRand, and joeyishar) talking about some great server called Noobscraft. I said that I would try it after they pesetered me for a week, and when I went on I found my friends and became a member. I joined the town known as WinterHold, as a noob. I found the mayor, ZeeTheLegend, and some TA's of the town soon after. BunnyLordFooFoo, Flyinghotdog1, and PaintballZ77 I remeber being some of the nicest members of the TA body of WinterHold, giving me the money to build a house, etc.. And so I played for two weeks. I forgot to put a sign up telling the TA's not to sell my house, but I told my friend who told the others. When I come back, my house is sold. EmperorMyrf was one of the most helpful mods ever to me. When I started, he was looking for people to help him build his giant ravine castle. I said I would help, even though all I had was a heavily used wooden pick someone gave me for free. When it broke, he gave me a rental diamond pickaxe. So I help him build this massive place. He lets mem keep the pick and gives me 10 diamonds, which helped a lot. Afterwards I lived in WinterHold for months. I was interviewed multiple times by ZeeTheLegend, who after the fourth time finally promoted me to TA post. I was great at it, restoring the old WinterHold back to its former glory. I gave great advice to new players, and helped expand the town and remake the town spawn. Yet I was not really appreciated by the other TA's, and most of the old TA's I had become good friends with had left the town or server, or were inactive for months at a time. I started having problems with Zee, and my friends were getting banned 1 by 1 for things such as spamming or advertising without meaning to, and I was losing my interest in trying to help a town when nobody appreciated me for doing it. Zee had torn down my houses and offices multiple times, because I was out of town when I was on, exploring a desert/mushroom biome that I had found and made a settlement there. I was at the end of the line with some of the players on the server. So I stopped playing. When I go to get back on, I was banned for 2 days for "griefing a cave home" of some inactive player who I had never heard of or seen. I didn't know what had happened, and so I asked some of the moderators. They told me what I knew already, so I waited two days. When I am unbanned, I go back to my usual flow of things: Exploring my area. I find a castle, and thereafter find some signs saying "This is the city of KochiraKoso. Welcome!" I look through it, and the ruins of it are a great help to me. I find chests with tons of stuff in it, and I ask TidalMewMew if I can take the stuff. She checks and the players are all perma-banned or left the server. So I take the stuff. My friends are living with me now and we are doing great. I start having problems with Zee again, when he starts taking down my houses again. I tell him not to sell or destroy any of my houses, and when I come in to the town to take my armor and weapons to a PvP match, I can't find my house. I look and see that all four of my plots were sold by Zee and all of my items (including the 9 Diamond Blocks I had worked for forever to get) were gone, the chests destroyed by admins and mods because the buyer wanted more room for his garden. I was so angry that I emptyed the storehouse of WinterHold, renounced my post as a TA, and left the town. My friends did the same. He realized it and told the admins, earning me a perma-ban. The admins find my house and let Zee take the stuff back, plus a ton more that he never had in the first place. I had failed my friends and left them with nothing. I put up a ban appeal, which I lost, because of too many arguments with other players. So I contacted Waterworth in private, trying to get me unbanned. After a week and a half, I finally got him to agree to unban me-- after another month. So here I am, waiting for my ban to expire in 14 days.

Not going to lie, I feel like I have been here a long time. I had so many great memories of this server, and I want to share them. It seems only right to post my story now, since V6 will be starting soon. Its time to end this chapter of noobstown, and time to make a new one~


I joined over a year ago now, back in April of 2012. Not a day later I joined Forthwind which was run by ajhl49. I played non-stop for the next week putting in long hours helping clear plots for members of the town. I donated supplies for new structures in the town and had tons of fun. I met some really awesome people like Dmonemac95, tyja, and Achmedofhell who were all TA's of the town.

Then things took a turn for the worst. Some former TA's decided to destroy the town that I had come to know and love. They withdrew all the money in the town bank, and when I returned to the town the next day everything was gone. We lost the location of the town outpost, and spent hours and hours searching the world of noobstown in hope of finding the lost outlook. While the structures in the town still stood, all the entities (doors, signs, ect) were cleared. The town worked together to rebuild, and with the help of the admin team we were able to rebuild Forthwind. After a day or so of searching we finally located the lost town outpost and decided that it would be best to take all the valuable items from the unclaimed land and forget about the outpost.

After the horrible incident I was promoted to the rank of TA. I recruited new members to the town, and made lots of new friends. Ajhl49, who used to be a moderator of the server, was having issues with his internet connection and became inactive. After that the only TA's left were Tyja, Achmedofhell, and I.

I ventured out on my own in the Ender world and built myself the first ever automatic enderman farm on the server. You could get to level 50 for enchanting in about 5-10 minutes. The spawner was a huge success and Achmedofhell and I worked together to create our very own enchantment shop. We became best friends on the server and worked well together.

Forthwind never fully recovered from its destruction, and it slowly faded away. People came and left, and things just were not the same. I left for a month on vacation, and when I came back the town had gone bankrupt with nobody to save it. I took my stuff from the town and made my own secret underground base maybe 500 blocks away from were the old town used to be. I made myself my own base and lived there alone. Achmedofhell became inactive due to his account being hacked, and I had no town, and had lost most of my friends.

I stayed active for a while, but I left sometime around the beginning of the next school year. It was hard to leave but I felt like it would be best if I did. I still logged on here and there to see how things were going but I never fully rejoined.

Then about 4 months later, I rejoined the server. I came back and  made new friends like DiggyPerro, Entangled, TwistedLover, and AQW_assassian01. I still owned a good amount of wealth, and I played for hours all over again. I joined Dragonfire, and worked with DiggyPerro on some new projects. I leveled up my fishing skills for what seemed like forever.

After the launch of the Live Map I was ecstatic. I used the map to locate the old outpost for the town of Forthwind. When I arrived, I was surprised to find that the old outpost had been reclaimed by another person. That is how I met MrFloris. One of the old TA's, Dmonemac95, sold the old outpost land to MrFloris. I made a deal with MrFloris that allowed me to share the land with him as long as I promised not to grief anything.

Things were going good, and then V6 was announced. I was a little sad at first about the idea of letting go of everything that I had worked so hard for. But I think that it will be for the best. I went inactive again for another maybe 3-4 months I have finally returned yet again in the light of a new beginning. I cant wait for V6 to come, and to have more new stories to tell.

Thanks for reading, and I hope I didnt make it too long for you

When I started Off I was still a nooby player. 2 weeks after Purchase of Mc . I didn't know how the commands worked and I just started my Adventure. I was welcome from a couple of players. If im right Jack and Duel and others. When I became a member I was surprised how the server spawned look. I enjoyed it very much when I learned this was a Towny Server (I had no clue this was Towny at first. I just expected a Normal Server) When I continued I never knew where to go and where to Live. (Spending Hours exploring the spawn.) I spent that day all night playing when a player (Jason or something. Isn't here today ) Take me to the mine world. I was surprised how he or she repaired my pickaxes and then I started Grinding Mining Skill. Once I was full Inventory I went to spawn and Dilly Dallyed More. Then I was Just there Living at spawn for Day 1. That Day I managed to receive more help from others Like AdrianCavi. That Day He Invited me to His town and let me stay at his town for 1 day. But Before that (Not forgetting the Awesome Help from Duelcon ) I was warped to DragonFire (if that was the town name) and suprisly Duel gave me 3 Double Chests to store. I kept bugging Duel too Much that soon I felt like He was just ignoring me. Me first time in Minecraft Towny server,Never knew any commands. ~Continue Very Soon~

well i came on in the 1/4 of v4 i was a noob and had to kill myself multiple times to get health back cuz i had no food. I did some quick researching on wiki sent out and searched for place to build a house it took me 1 1/2 hours but alas i found a place. then my friend came on and made a hotel where people came in for their first day. Sadly that attracted greifers and that same day my home and the surrounding area was a crater. it took me a while but found a place where i could build another house with some other people there i grew a small fortune. Fast forward a few weeks / months and my home was blown up because the "mayor/ person in charge of  the town " told me that V5 was coming out and it was no use having it (sadly all my stuff was there too so i had to start fresh) with in a week v5 came out and i was like the 74 person to get on.

that is all for now maybe i'll do more tomorow idk.
