Upgrade complete, we hope you enjoy our faster service. February updates will take place next month, we have decided not to remove the /tpa because we understand this is an important part of the Multiplayer experiance (Being able to keep close to your friends).

February will be the month of change for Noobstown. We have lots of plans to keep our players happy throughout this year such as changes to plugins, custom plugins more web interaction, easier applications, renovations to districts, town capacity increase and economic growth.

First of all I would like to talk about the most important part of the server, towns. We have seen our servers towns grow and they have grown fast, we will be working to develop more on towny with possibiltys of town profiles on the website, auto town invites and more.

 The changes that will occur in February for towns include:

Maximum plots from 2 to 4

Maximum town blocks increased by double, allowing larger towns to grow.

Next it's the trade district, the trade district has already transformed into our new layout. The district will be the new spawn for guests, members and supporters and will contain teleports, small tutorial, a auction house and market place in which you can buy general good from the server. The market place will change every so often to offer different supplys and rare items such as gold, diamond, lapis etc that you can buy and sell.

Teleports are returning too and will be better than ever. A new large world will be opening offering pure wilderness and no towns to make the main world for towns only, then ofcourse the mining world will re-open to offer monthly restocks of ores.

Plugins, we are cutting some of those heavy loaders off the server which will increase performance and reduce lag. These plugins include the livemap, pvp mini game and essentials, although essentials will be replaced by a lighter plugin. There is another plugin that may be removed which I have not yet decided on fully due to the impact it could cause of the server.

How will this affect you?

/tpa will be VIP/Veteran only having people teleporting all over the place can cause stress to the server, its only for the best.

There will be no pvp mini games but, we are thinking of ways to make pvp more enjoyable. Yet again our aim is to work on performance to make things like fighting more smooth.

Your home teleport location will be no longer be saved so you will need to reset it after the changes are made.

No more live map although it served incredibly useful for new players or even when travelling its not necessary when causing problems to peformance therefore we do not need this plugin.

Thats about it for plugins as of now and we will keep you informed as commands may have changed from swapping to diferent plugins.

Future plans as stated above more web based interaction, possibly a team speak and whatever we have suggestions for. Keep plugin suggestions down, we dont want to overload the server too much.

Lastly, Noobstown is upgrading the server box very soon meaning there will be a 1-10 hour downtime on one of the days. We are going for a faster box, located closer to the US and this should provide the performance we are looking for.

Wrote on iPad will fix any errors when I wake up.

The Trade District will be under construction within the next few days as we re-design the area ready for our auction trading system and this area will become the new spawn for all players. The spawn will contain a tutorial room, teleport suite for district teleports and more.The plan is to make it easier for new users to get into the server our current set up is just not cutting it, we are loosing many members and this is slowing the growth of the community. The Noobscastle will be transformed into a place for events, with many rooms we can create lots of interesting and fun creations such as a party room.

I will also be working to optimize our current plugins and try and shorten down the use age of memory so the server runs smoother. A server upgrade is on the horizon to make the server more powerful and closer to the US. We thank all the kind donations we have received since v5 opened, this is allowing us to improve the quality of Noobstown.

! ALL STALL OWNERS EMPTY YOUR STALL BECAUSE THEY WILL BE REMOVED WITHIN THE NEXT 3 DAYS !
