We are making good progress with the server and will start working on version 5 very soon. Since 1.8 was release the server has been crashing, the crashes/ lag areas in the world are due to Notch/Jeb not fixing the experience orbs. As you are playing the game you are always collecting experience orbs and the more and more you gather will truly effect the server on death, its like dropping 3000 logs at the same time in one area. There is also another bug that crashes the server when you have a full inventory and shift click an item into it the game and server will crash.


Tweet Notch or Jeb about the issues the more people that do it the quicker they will hot fix it.

We are looking for new Operators and are re-shaping the Operating team, please apply using our brand new application thread. Want to help build the next version? Post something you have built, experience with World edit (We look for natural when we World edit, so it keeps the look of Minecraft terrain) This means no huge squares that are floating over water.


Experienced Java/Plugin coders


If you are experienced with Java or coding Minecraft plugin please send me a Message, we need custom plugin and we would like to make some changes to our current plugins.


In another news I carried out a lag test on the server we managed to reach above 50 players online zero lag apart from the common 1.8 problems.
 

Thanks Joe for the huge update

Is there a set time that the new Ops will be picked?

Once we have most of Version 5 build and we are couple of days away from release.

Can't wait for v5. Right now theres a bunch of noobs who just come up, grief you and kill you randomly.

Sorry for the temp server its going to be a state, just try and deal with it while we get our stuff together.

I was on the temp server a couple days ago... It looked like a warzone. The spawn was creeper bombed, there were random iron bars and half demolished bridges, and a whole herd of spiders in the spawn. And if that wasnt enough, it wouldnt let me collect logs, due to the lag, and the chatlag was unbearable, it took at least 5 minutes between typing and actually seeing your message. I dont know what Jeb did, but wtf Jeb? anyway, good luck on server Joe
