  I don't know if, it can be worked out , an embassy plot and ambassador assistant , I know this comes out of left field but maybe I can help this way.

 IGN- hoppytoadbob
 Age- 62
 Location- Frederick, Md. an hour NE of Wash. DC
 Hours on server- My time on the server normally varies 3-8 hrs some days more some days Real life interferes
 Experience- My experience was thrust upon me a couple years ago the server kept changing things, wiped out all towns and started Factions I stayed with the 2 mayors when they made the faction , then factions were wiped they became too busy to start a town the town assistant was still on the server when I asked Dbock if he was going to start a town he said as soon as he had the money, I had the money we started the town he asked if I wanted to be mayor, I declined, he made me VIP, as he became busy with HS ( and I think a GF ) he was kicked for inactivity, the server selected me Alphabetically, and I came on one day Mayor, with my first crisis , the town was low on money and would be wiped if taxes weren't paid , I had no help I was the only citizen, 2 others were kicked as well I used one citizens netherwart tower farm , harvested and sold to server shop, I did that every day to build up the towns treasury to very well off, recruited 2 assistants and grew the town to 24 citizens " A City !!!" , I built all of the town roads and plots , until we had no plots left, it seems one assistant had made 40 outposts and used them all up, Dbock had come back and I returned mayor to him which he lost to the other assistant who also could only be on for short periods of time, (Only a mayor can remove an outpost) next thing you know the moron running the server wiped towny again, I said Adios and joined a small server with some of the former disgruntled players I still have a small 4 citizen town built in the mountains with floaty plots and roads to preserve the natural beauty of the terrain.

  I had to learn the commands on the fly , save the town build the town wave goodbye to my town

 Why because you are a friend and I want to help, we have always gotten along well, I think you were one of my first new friends in V5.
  How long with Noobstown , It's hard to remember exactly how long, It was just before the announcment of V6, I can check on that I joined Adrians Redskin_Nation, as soon as I found I liked the people here.
   Sorry my Experience was so long but I think it puts everything in perspective, Hoppy the Ancient Miner

  PS I checked I messaged Adrian to join his town May 31,2013 so that is about how long I've been with noobstown, Hoppy.

 :D
Sucks that over a day of my VIP time has gone away cause the server has been down :/ Wish the days didn't go down when something was wrong with the server.

  Between this and the Comcast problem I've probably lost about 4 days of my short VIP status.

Oh the irony, i gave this server 1 last chance before leaving it and it goes offline for 2 days.

  Don't give up too soon it took Edison 200 tries before the Light bulb worked.

  And I would open a window to let the sun fry it's vindictive bones to dust, Myrf is keeping the skelly safe from all who have suffered from it's vindictive snipering of people who minding their own business farming or woodcutting or tending of livestock, not to mention the fishermen sniped in the back while trying to put food on their plate. Many want him and all of his bony friends to leave us in peace , Hoppy full of arrows from last meeting with a band of those bony terrorists.

Server Announcements / Re: 6.0 Preparation
« on: 30 Jan 2014, 17:54:37 »
  Thanks Joe and all of your magical helpers, I've explored a few servers, and quit one that went bad (insert flushing sound here) it survives on mini games & wiped towny, one of the former members started a new server that is fun but has had huge BuGS, entire Towny world glitched all towns gone , my town was a boring square town on a flat landscape , I found in the new towny world an awesome mountain and valley where I'm building floaty plots and walkways, my house is on top of one of the mountains, also have an outpost island with some plots with beachfront, so the setback has been a bonus.

  I also have a base on a huge factions server that is more towny than factions , the main spawn city is a replica of ancient Rome with lots of markets for shopping , and a huge wilderness with relentless mobs so traveling is hazardous at best , just getting wood from my tree farm can be deadly.

  I'm patiently waiting for V6 ready to get started and re-meet some of the friend I've missed from V5, Hoppy the Ancient miner.

  Saturday February 22, 2014  I hope by then.

  Thank you Joe , I had a feeling Bukkit was most of the hold-up, I've been patiently waiting, trying to tie up loose ends , and trying to find a replacement mayor for the town I've been running on another server, the problem is finding reliable people that can be on often. I'm glad you made this update, I can wait but I don't want to, Impatiently waiting patiently, thanks for keeping us up-dated Foob I know it's going to be awesome.

Server Announcements / Re: Unexpected Sad News!
« on: 8 Nov 2013, 16:05:49 »
  I was afraid I might miss the Grand Opening of V6, when the update arrived , I tried it and found It locked up Mine-craft, it turned out my graphics drivers needed updating, now it's working I plan on while waiting to get lots of experience with 1.7.2 so when V6 starts I won't be fumbling around , learning on the fly, the new flowers I find unimpressive , but as I explore I'm sure I'll find things that were worth all the hoopla.

   I am patiently waiting because I have full confidence in the admins of this great server, they are doing what is best for all current and new members. those bored souls need to get a hobby, or go practice in single-player, if you can survive alone you can always thrive.

  I've tried other servers in the past some didn't last as long as this wait, I have found the best server for me, with the best new friends and friend always are patient for friends so I'll walk the dogs teach the deaf dog a new trick, watch some DVD's and plan what to do.

  I thank the administrators for making sure all will be awesome when ready, and I hope the complainers will read this and realize how bratty and spoiled they have been acting, I'm sorry if I've hurt someones feelings but the truth won't hurt an honest man. NOT politically correct ever Hoppy.

  A very good Idea Flammable, on a previous server that problem occurred, said problem was taken care of by a server wipe and move to factions :( , later to be wiped for towny  :'(.

Server Announcements / Re: Updated V6 Rules
« on: 1 Oct 2013, 14:52:30 »

   It is the rules and feel of the server that I like most about this server, the overall friendliness of the server and the people on it are the very things that make Noobscraft the best server in MC, I've tried the biggest but prefer the best. Keep up all the great work I'm looking forward to V6 and all of the new friends I have made here,Hoppy.
