Sup sup world,
Towns are eh, too many, and they are, eh.. quite inactive, dead, deserted. Except a bunch.
- Wouldn't it be nice if the town is deserted and no active players come on to take it over, that we can perhaps request to turn it into an outpost?
Their old town spawn= a new outpost for us. Their old plots: the owner keeps it, just gets tagged as part of the 'new' town name.
Effectively adding the ability for us with admin permission after review to merge towns together so we end up with active towns and give players a chance to not get griefed, lose their items, etc.
Or just, because a couple of towns are small but wouldn't mind working together as one bigger town if they both have the same taste in building. Especially when we're already helping eachother but dont' want to abandon what we've worked on for years.
Another addition would be to perhaps have a limited creative-like options for a limited one hour a month or week, where we can use what we put in our inventory but we can kinda 'creative build' with it. It doesn't have to be the creative interface, but placing and breaking blocks would be at creative speed and just get added or removed from our inventory (if there's space) and with that one hour we can also have the ability to fly like in creative. Even if this is limited to the mayor of the town, or an assigned builder/assistant (just one person) that would mean we can do terious tasks a bit nicer, quicker, and make more progress with the towns so we can focus more on plot management and fine tuning our designs. Heck, i'd even buy this 'one hour once a month' for 500,000 once a month just to get a roof sorted out every so often.
Separate from the above .. the ability to fly in only your own town would help with plot management so much. just being able to 'get over there', would be nice, maybe not flying, but say a super bunny jump with a soft landing would already make going around a hill area a bit nicer. And why this is more important than say /j ? .. ppl can't get /j anymore .. But even more importantly; it gives overview. To fix this now, even with /j, i sometimes make a 50 high pile of dirt just to get an overlook of where i am. And boy does that help with planning. Having the ability to temp fly as assistant or assigned plot manager would really help figure out which way to go for the plots, or what is ahead of us.
Furthermore I'd like to have some additional features for towny, where we can give our residents more perks, or our assistants custom titles. if you are assistant in my town, and you are in the town region, and you have the title of 'farmer' or 'shop keeper', then people would know by just looking at you when the title is below your username above your head, or when they /player you, .. that you're the person to talk to. They can kinda feel involved and responsible for the farm plots in town. The mayor can say, besides generic help with residents, you're the go to person for building those farm plots, replanting, and what not. The same goes for shop plots, and let someone build a shopping area, a market, where others can have shops and there's this shop-keeper in town , an assistant with that title, who handles all that stuff. But having the title, the rank, or whatever, would really make somone feel more involved. If that makes sense.
A gui for town management, and plot management for town mayor, assistant and resident.. would be really nice.
Some additional option to toggle a plot with flags as 'disable common commands', so we can build parcour or gaming areas as well, but ppl can't use /j or /back etc, like tidal has in her town. It would be nice if we can achieve this as well.
RPG for towny, this would a nice feature to have. With this i mean the ability to have some towny stats that we can use for levelling or ranking.. Where it can track how many visits a town had, recent ppl that visited, perhaps if they have plots of all types , to unlock some stuff.. or perhaps have earned money through town shops, etc.
I also wouldn't mind if we can have a dedicated area for town mine.. so players can go to the /town x mine, and see a clearly designed 8x8 area or whatever with a pretty design, but only the blocks inside the border can be mined out. And on the first of the month this could reset .
The ability to set a couple of town warps, especially with outposts it is hard for residents to know where to start, where the shops are, the mine, the farm, etc. It would be nice if we could /town x shops , /town x farms, ..
And finally, town alliance, if we're all part of a nation, it would be nice if we could both type a command like: /town alliance bobstown and the other goes /town alliance accept, and we get a 5 minute option to register a plot or outpost.. Imagine if we could build railroads in our nation between towns !! or have the plots connect up and work together with other towns. "oh boy"
i could go on, but i am sure these are enough things to get everybody excited or at least start a nice discussion about why we might not be interested in something. I hope things are being considered and help turn the user activity up
Thank you for reading and in advance for considering anything.

Hello hello team,
We love to play survival, and we love to level up on things like mcMMO to be a better miner, farmer, etc. But after playing since 2012, I have to say: I kinda wish there were more RPG possibilities.
When breeding and having animals, I wouldn't mind if that's a leveled system. From easy level 1, to harder level 25, for example. With 1 coming with no perky perks, but maybe level 25 we can pick the colors for our sheep..
Or if we're fighting mobs, bring back some of those mineapoc features back so we can have dumb level 1 angry mobs just kinda staring at up, but we might not get anything when we slay them with our sword, but level 25 might be a tough little ****** that requires certain enchants to even get killed.
Player levelling for starters to heroes. Where the more we play the better our character develops. This would be quite nice so we know who might be knights. We have veterans and vips, but those are donation ranks from back in the day and new players since the EULA change can't get any perks like that. Rewarding active players with a status to pick or level up to would be nice. I wouldn't mind markin myself as a knight if i pvp a lot, or a dwarf rank if i mine a lot, etc.
Talking about dwarfs and what not, what about just basic things like being a miner, a farmer, etc. We could have jobs, making extra money through the things we already do .. the more we build, the richer we get, something a builder can't get if they dont have time for mining. This means the more i work on my plots and chunks, the more money i have to buy more wild chunks and expand my empir.. i mean /home Jobs are a great way to be "the farmer" on the server, or "a shop keeper".
A miner could get abilities as well, not only would they allow to mine for archeology items that raaaarely drop, they might get a perk like 15s of nightvision very randomly.. just another example. Making mining more fun again. And we don't like that stuff? we can just not join that job.
Instead of the pets we have now, which don't do anything but 'look i got this one', i wouldn't mind a little companion that is hard to get and soul bound to me. It could die , but i can use /gem to revive it. I can feed it and keep it active to help it grow and level it up.
Certain things like a knight by the way, could have a unique magic spell or ability on their sword to increase chance of turning mobs into a mob head, or a mob upon death to drop their entity as a spawn egg.
Even if any of this is hard to obtain, or very low chance, .. it just adds to the gameplay, especially when you play for hours.
Talking about pve, pvp - we should be able to perhaps utilize this more. We had fun doing mob arena, but maybe to get more players on, - allow it, but only if there are ten players? this way ppl can't do it over and over or with their alt account. They need 5+ more players to start one. Having arenas for pvp where you get a kit and the reward gets mailed as a /gift, and you leave the arena you get your old inventory back.. then it's fair for all and a fun fight against mobs and/or players.
I never do quests, but many do - and many times over as well. Besides scoring 'yet another head' .. it would be nice if there's perhaps a leaderboard of people who played it and leveled up their quest?
For towny there's a whole load of other rpg suggestions when it comes to shop, embassy, assistants, etc to make it more fun to have an active town. But with so many questions i might just write a separate discussion for that.
I do not want to create an environment of 'i am the best miner, i am the best elf with bows and pvp', i want a fun gameplay experience where we can get together and play.. without being like 'ugh hold on, let me set up 15 plots as embassy and get back to you in 30m' and after 30m they are like 'ok, i gtg now, sorry' .. and you have to undo everything. The downside of a completely locked down world, is less gameplay together unless they are a friend of your plot/chunk. Teaming up as a farmers, a party for mining, a group for levelling abilities.. and shop keepers for rare items, etc.. it would be nice RPG
I wouldn't mind mining to get a couple of old archeology artifacts, collect them, and finally after 6 months trade them against npc in various towns for unique tool or armour/weapon upgrades.

Sup staff,
The server activity just isn't that high, and as a result the monthly resets also do not happen - in a way that we can count on it - so I'd like to suggest to please reconsider this.
Those who do play actively wouldn't mind a mining base in the mining world, a city farm in the end city, and a proper fortress adventure in the nether world. But investing time in something wondering if it gets reset a month later isn't motivating one bit. I rather for example make a tiny grinder of say a few mobs in the mining world (and yes, i know we're not supposed to build there), but instead of just doing half the work thinking it's gone in a week, .. it would be nice kinda knowing it might be there for more than a month to use.
Could it, instead of monthly reset, which sometimes doesn't even happen, can we have seasonal resets maybe?
So reset the temp worlds if there's a new mc version we've upgraded to, or if there's a new season?
"hey guys, it's summer, the temp worlds have been reset, whooo"
This would motivate me much more to work on a city in the end for the resources, or play there with some ppl, or maybe go to the nether and do something with the ghasts and blazes, rather than hide below 1 block and aim and not return for weeks.. because i thought things would reset.
Thank you for reading this and for considering giving us more than a month so we can utilize the resources in those worlds a bit more.

Hey staff, With the server merge a few years ago and people still joining this year, but not being too happy it's just survival and that things aren't the same as before on mineapoc, we get some annoying discussions from disappointed kids with attitude. Would it perhaps be a suggestion to allow vip+ or whatever to use /mineapoc <player>, so they get a defaulted message like: > Hey <player>, the Mineapoc server got merged into noobscraft a while ago, more info here: {url-to-info-thread} That way we can also get away with saying: "sorry, that's all i know about it"  Thank you for reading this and perhaps taking it under consideration.

Update: Diamondpuppy808 got the hobbit hole job. I gave this thread a bit more time but didn't see cruisinski online or other people, and diamond is active right now and a super nice person as well. Looking forward to some fun hobbit hole design Don't worry if you missed out: more hobbit hole threads coming still, along with a few other things

I know cruisinkiy is interested, I know he's not able to post just yet, but I wanna put in a "YES!" for him. As well I'd be interested as well, will now commence watching the video!!
okidoki, thanks for letting me know - link him to the thread

If anybody wants to see the progress that kill has made, and my attempts to participate by throwing some houses around ..
/town spawn x and then follow the iron path: go straight. Or ask for a tpa
There's a bit more to do; we have some paths to make, more patches of 'things' and some trees and other greenery, maybe connect a few houses underground together and a glass-underground viewing area where we can have some tea and cookies.

I could try and also what's with the title? I assume you just copied and pasted right  I was also wondering about this and how long it took to post
Cool to hear you have an interest It took a bit to post, i had to make the video, encode it, upload to youtube, embed it properly, update the copy/pasted text to the new stuff, re-read over it so it made sense, link back to the first thread i created and update the title (guess where it went wrong :p haha)

Hello community, Polish up your shovels, pickaxes, and get rid of the splinters on the workbench. It's time to stretch those muscles and get ready to spend a day, a weekend, a week or two building in town x. Get your decoration chests and resources ready to be put to good use. Town x is looking for creative builders who are familiar with a natural / medievil (or rather, not a modern) style of building. Do you have experience with creating a nice and cozy looking hobbit hole? And have the time in March/April to build something awesome for us? Then you're certainly the person we're looking for. There are currently 8 plots (See video) that I will put up as embassy plots. If we pick you for the job you can claim those as yours and you can get started. You're free to terraform the environment to fit your creativity, and as any hobbit hole, build down into the ground I guess, with a nice above ground round door opening. Just use common sense. Perhaps get inspired by some existing designs on the server or google images, youtube etc. You will make the builds on behalf of town x. They become our property so to speak. After the build is finished we're free to customize it, take it down, rebuild it, sell the plots to players who want to live there. So it seems logical to compensate you for your troubles. And so we will. You will get some money to help you repair your items and cover the cost of some of your resources that you yourself will supply. And you will get some money for simply taking the time to build on the plots. But, since we're paying, I think it's fair to say it should be more than a dirt hut or a square house with a roof made out of 16 logs of wood.. you know what I mean. We can offer you a 175,000 nbz to cover your time, your costs, resources, and to say thank you for the hard work in March/April. (it would be nice if it is done before April 14th. We're looking for a friendly and cozy looking place with a creative approach, decorations, and basically something that's clear some effort has been put into it. Please only reply to this thread if you have a bit more than the basics of the building know-how and experience. It's a plus if you've made hobbit holes before of course. What about credits? I am like davinci and demand my swag .. ok stop.. don't worry. You're free to leave a sign locked to a block (that's not in the way if ppl would live there) with your name on it. What is ok : build made by yourName, from town whatever.. What is not ok: like these builds? join town whatever (no advertisements,. basically). In February I made a thread with some additional information, in case you're looking for more hiring jobs (there will be, keep an eye on the forums). https://www.noobscraft.com/market/heads-up-town-x-hiring-builders-in-march/Can I apply Floris? Yes! Just reply to this thread.. and in a day (or so) I will update the thread. Sometimes we will pick someone based on knowing how they build, or simply because they were the first to reply: Please do not take it personal if you don't get picked. Can I build with my friends? Sure, we pay you.. if you want your friends to help you or pay them to help you.. that's fine. Just know you're responsible: If they grief the plot, I will come hunt you both down. Wait, I have to use my own resources? Yep, I am not always online, and waiting for me to show up to give you a beacon for example is unrealistic. I hope instead of paying 50k, I pay at least tripple as much for this job to help compensate in costs/resources. This is made for town x right, it will be like .. yours. When we're done? Yep, you are simply helping us out adding some more things to our town. What if I really like what I made, can I copy it to my own plot/wild/town? If YOU made it, you are free to copy that. Yeah, I think that's more than fair. If YOU did not make it, then we consider it stealing town designs. We play fair.  I went to the hobbit plots but couldn't claim any plots?! Please wait for me to get online. That way we can guarantee the right person gets the plots. https://youtu.be/aes2_h3zhcQAnyway. Thank you for reading this, get motivated, sharpen those tools and keep an eye on the forums, there will be a couple of threads per week(end) surely. Questions? well, ... shoot!

all he has to do is set it to you dont lose inventory when you die.. simple as that
Doesn't sound like a lot of survival for a survival server to me. Losing items is part of it.. that's why we can earn money and get perks through the global market, etc.

I'm excited!! I keep having ideas! I look forward to implementing new ideas as they pop into my head! Thanks, mrfloris!
Glad to hear, have fun building and I am curious to check it out in a few days to get surprised by progress Wait does this mean there are no more you said there was 9 right because I just came up with an idea of a mini ocean monument for fishing does that mean I cannot do that? If so t.hen next time could you do 2-3 plots so other people can do it instead of first come first serve because I just woke up and saw the post.
The whole fishing area was 9 plots, it's 1 job. Yeah it's taken already. But I really like the idea you gave me and I think there's room for that as well. Let me first start something else soon though

I know how you build killjoy, and you're the first to reply. What is there to stop me from saying: you're hired.
I will go set things up and poke you in-game to get started. You should have the quarter million noobz soon.
have fun!

This sounds pretty fun, good idea Mrfloris.
I am not the best builder nor am I very creative but i'm going to start making houses to practice for this.
I am going to participate but i do have one question, are there any restrictions? (Redstone, Cobblestone Generators, etc...)
The threads will mention the theme. Thanks for the interest.
474
« on: 27 Feb 2018, 13:24:41 »
lol i meant im not good a themed builds and the only builds i have on the server are the ones in Tombstone i also got a couple of questions- how are we going to get there are we going to have to tpa to you several times?
- are you wanting particular things places?
i thought i had more questions lol
VIP+ users can set multiple homes, but I think I will open up the town for visits so people can get there easier. Particular things?

« on: 21 Feb 2018, 14:30:56 »
I'm usually open to be hired, not on as much recently due to school though.
it's for March, when the thread(s) are live, please only to them if you have the time in march of course
