about the mob arena I must ask, will it be on the mini-game server like I've heard rumors about, or will it be on the server and we can use the /ma like in v5 ?
I believe it will be on the mini-game server along with every other activity/game to earn rewards on for the server of your choice.

Hello, My suggestion is that the party chat text colour be changed to something other than the bright green (&a) that is currently used. From my experiences on the server it can be hard to keep up with the chat and it can sometimes confuse me with the server tips and the party chat which can be annoying (I'm weird like that). But yeah I'd love to see a change in the text colour, possibly to something that isn't currently used in the chat anywhere like indigo (&9).

Bump.
Just spoke to Waterworth about this and I understand that this is unlikely to be implemented. Thanks for clearing things up Waterworth.
Topic Locked.

I've been wondering if it would be possible for the staff to perhaps make an event schedule detailing when certain parties/events will be celebrated on the Noobstown server, as I believe that not every national holiday in the world is celebrated on the server. Obviously I know that the big holidays like Christmas, Halloween, Easter etc are celebrated around the time that they occur but it would still be nice to have a schedule to see when things are planned to happen. I don't expect you to be able to set dates in stone but it would be nice to know approximate dates that correspond to specific events. Maybe you could do an online calendar with the events pinned up on them? I dunno I'm just making up ideas now.  EDIT: I've also just thought that this would be a great idea because it will give towns a head start to plan for any decorations/events they want to do within their town!

The thing to be concerned about here is less about existing player retention than it is about how new people experience joining servers. From my experience in server shopping, the second I ran into an issue with the server I left immediately or gave up on the connection process. If new people who have already changed their names go looking for a new server and are met with a login error when trying to connect to NC, that's instantly a lost new player. Lack of new players over time = server death. Playing with a touchy thing here.
I'm not sure if I'm 100% understanding what you're trying to say. From what I can comprehend you are saying that people that have not yet joined the server and have changed their username they will not be able to join the server, however I don't think this is the case and unregistered users should be able to join the server even if they had previously changed their username because the server doesn't have any data on them before they registered. Although I may be wrong on that one, and I'm sorry if I am incorrect. Additionally I doubt there will be a "Lack of new players over time" as ItsLawrence has already stated that: ...you can however wait to change your name because eventually we do plan to allow those with changed names to connect...
I don't understand what the big deal is. If you started with a username and have accomplished something with that name (good or bad) then why not keep it; it is your legacy. I'm sure there are some circumstances that drive one to change their username but what your name is are on the server (ill named or not) does not defined who you are. It is what you do that defines you. O.K. , so maybe that is a little to deep for most, but I happen to believe that everyone contributes a little bit of there psyche to everything they do; be it a trival blocky game or a source of living. What I'm saying is, embrace your title because the reality is that, despite it is a name for a fantasy world, there is a true story as to how you came to create that name. It could have been a miss-type, or something you were goofing off with, never-the-less the tale is real.
Fair comment. However you do have to understand that there are a lot of people out there that are thrilled with the concept of changing their username. I for one would love to change my username because I'm not particularly fond of the one I have now, but as you have already said it does feel like it's became personal to me and if I did change it I would lose my status and recognition I have earned over the years of playing Minecraft. This then leads me to a question. Say that I, or any other member with a different rank to Member, were to change our usernames.. would we still keep our rank/title?

Be prepared for a large drop in Users
I wouldn't worry about that. The people that are actually smart enough to read up on the issue will (hopefully) know that if they change their username they won't have access to the server. So therefore you should still see the usual people online unless they are mega desperate to have a username change and are willing to lose their access.

That message is in no way personally directed just to you. As you said, it is just displayed every so often in the mining world as you mine. To answer what an x-ray is, it's a resource/texture pack that allows you to easily spot ores of interest such as diamond etc. and you will get permanently banned if you are found to be x-raying.. so don't do it.

Hello, I'd like to suggest that spider eyes be added to the /shop If rotten flesh, gunpowder, bones and string are in it why not spider eyes? ^_^

What WHAT?! My sheep despawned?! I had over 100!!
Yeah.. so did all of mine. I'm very disappointed. We didn't even get a warning. (at least I don't think we did)

I don't believe it is exploiting since you are just using the in-game mechanics to get some XP levels. The problem comes when you start afk-farming, which is not allowed.

I'm happy to see that town prices are going up but I don't think it's enough. The 50k Nbz increase feels too little, towns should be something people work incredibly hard for and I feel as if there's going to be a massive amount of towns with only small amounts of residents living in them, which seems really unnecessary when there are people out there working hours on end to keep their town running and to accommodate for the residents they want to join their town. Too many people are seeing running a town as something easy and fun to do, when in reality it should be seen as something only for the most responsible and dedicated players on the server. I'm not suggesting to completely discourage people from wanting to run a town but it just seems too "easy" to get a town. You just get the money (mostly from a group of people) and submit an application which always gets accepted. Hmm.

Why do you have a cocoa bean farm if you can't do anything with them? Why do you continue farming them if you have loads of them and still no need for them?
People may want to farm cocoa beans for the Herbalism xp it gives, fair enough it doesn't give you a substantial amount but it's still something to farm.

If they did say that everything is set in stone then the "Suggestions & Ideas" board would have no purpose. So, of course they are looking for suggestions but some of the community voiced ideas just don't cut it and will not be added to the server, you can't expect them to add everyone's ideas onto the server or else there would be chaos. I'm not really understanding your point. Are you saying that there is a lack of freedom on the server? I can understand you to an extent but with two huge worlds and regenerating resource worlds (The Mining World, Nether and End), many plugins to enhance your survival experience (such as mcMMO, the auction and Towny) I believe there is a huge amount of freedom as you can do many things on the server. Fair enough there is slight restrictions on being able to build as you either have to buy a plot in a town or spend Noobz on chunks in the Wilderness world (which from my knowledge doesn't seem to cost extensively) to get lots of land, even then you may be limited to your expansion if someone else decides to build near you but I strongly believe there is a lot of freedom on the server.

I don't mean to put a downer on things but this really seems very unnecessary. I don't see why you're asking for suggestions for V7 (which may I add may not be for a very long time as I'm sure they've stated somewhere) when you could just ask for suggestions for V6 which is the primary focus right now. I'm sure the Staff team is always looking for good suggestions to improve the server with community feedback but I really don't think focusing on something that probably won't even happen for a long while is a good idea. Sorry if the way I've said things came out rude, I don't mean it to be rude I just don't see the point of asking for suggestions for V7.

Can't you just sell em to players tho ?
Rarely anyone ever buys cocoa beans, at least from my knowledge. Nor do I see why people would need to sell people cocoa beans because once you have one cocoa bean you can make a huge farm of them. So yeah I think cocoa beans should be added to the /shop even if it is at a very smell price per.

I imagine because it is a guaranteed point of spawn for whichever mob you choose. And it allows you to get mobs that don't normally spawn in the area where you own land, mooshrooms specifically and for me personally I am up on a big pile of stone with no easy way up other than parkour and teleports, Which unfortunately even with a lead leaves me unable to have any form of non-hostile mob farm. A spawner would allow players to have mobs that aren't possible in their land.
This. Plus the fact if you were in a town and you were making a mob farm a resident could quite easily kill all of the mobs and without a spawner it may take a while to get a fully functioning mob farm back up and running. With a spawner you have a reliable source for the mobs you want.

I'm all for this again. Having mob spawners being purchasable in the shop was one of the best ideas and I was sad to see that it would not be returning for V6. But yeah, hopefully it will return because I loved them.

Alchemy is one of the skills that comes with the mcMMO plugin. You get levels by brewing potions. More in-depth information can be found on the wiki at http://mcmmo.wikia.com/wiki/Alchemy

Why do you want to be a Prefect?: I've been a member of this server for almost 3 years now and I believe it's time to repay the server for everything its provided me with these past years. Noobstown has always been my favourite server and was the first server I found myself regularly on and a persistent online member of the community. I've always looked up to the staff on this server with their behavior and the way they conduct themselves in many situations and I would love to do what they do. I feel like I am mature enough to handle the responsibilities of being a Prefect in the correct manner. Although with my sketchy past I believe I still have to right attitude to join the staff team as I would love to make a better contribution to the server after all the amazing memories I have already made on this server. Finally I am on the server a lot with myself having a large amount of free time so I will be able to help out a lot on the server. Thank you for reading my application.

Have you recently changed the e-mail you registered with? If so an admin will need to sort the issue out for you.
Oh yes. That must be it. I shall wait for Lawrence (I'm assuming it will be him) to sort it out for me, thanks!

Relog, sometimes the permissions get bugged. It has happened to me at least twice.
I have just relogged a couple of times, still no results. Still a member.
