Here's a response to the PvP questions that have been popping up lately:

Spawn: The pvp spawn has been moved further on to provide fresh new land for mining and mischievous griefing for the bored ones. The spawn area is setup roughly the same however has a slightly wider 'no build zone' around it. All random spawn signs (including those at the old spawn) will drop you somewhere near the new spawn.

AFK: There has been many complaints about people AFK'ing to avoid combat. AFK commands have now been blocked, however if you stand around idle for 60 seconds, you will be protected by the auto-afk system.

Considerations: We are considering a few things for the PvP server:

  • Inter-spawn Portal - we understand some people have setup base near the old spawn and don't want to move up, so we will implement a portal between the spawns if we get some positive feedback on that idea.
  • Entirely new map - there have been quite a few people wanting a new map - voice your oppinions below.
  • New map + new inventories - again, voice your oppinnions.

What happens on the PvP server is really up to you!

I think I'm fine with the portal thing.

If we are going to do a new map then we are going to have to do new items, it would be unfair because of the people who have 'everything' on the current map and then use that to their advantage on the new map. However, I have already put that idea on the server and there was a mixed response to that.

I like the current map.

I like the current map. Please keep the current map. Theres a vast, vast area to build plenty of whatever you want on the current one.

 

Also keep the inventory.

 

There is no reason really to ever reset the pvp map, or stats.

 

WHAT I PROPOSE

 

The player themselves can reset their OWN stats, once every month. Only once per month. If a player wishes to keep his stats, he can.

Or that player can reset his own stats every 3 months.

 

This in turn will make most players, which probably is the main reason they want a reset, mainly their

stats because they have done so horrible, and their only hope is a stats reset. Let them reset their

own stats, only once per month, or every 2 months, whichever you decide. I want to keep what ive

earned, that being stats, things i have built, and things ive earned.

I vote new map and new inv. Mostly because I can't walk 3 feet without getting killed by something.

There is a random spawn sign for a reason Yenwood. The map was also expanded so that shouldn't be as much of an issue now.

I vote no on the consesus

I vote no on the consesus of:

 

I want to keep what ive earned, that being:

1. stats,

2. things i have built,/structures ive built

3. and things ive earned / Inventory

 

If someones up for a stat reset petition system for individual players that want it for themselves, or a month or every 3, 6 months, year, im ok with that, but i wish to keep mine where they're at

No reset

I do not think the map should be reset we would lose builds stats etc.

 

I would be possibly in favor of limited individual stat resets for people that find themselves with aweful KDRs.

I wouldn't mind a complete

I wouldn't mind a complete map/item reset. But only if it was planned to be reset after a certain amount of time. For example, have everyones items abd the map start over at the start of every other month. That way more and more people can become interested in the World of Minecraft servers, because they could be given a fair chance every month or so. However, i would vote against resetting that stats. Have the leaderboards carry over between worlds. But a reset on the maps and items. Also, for the full diamond armor crowd, a full reset wouldn't be as bad as you think. As i figured out a month or so ago, and Fishtownmichael is just realizing, (and i'm sure A_FITZ will notice soon) but being on top is extremely boring. Nobody ever wants to fight when they know they'll die. Myself included. So when you're the only person around with strong gear, you end up standing around with nothing to do and nobody to fight as everybody sits in spawn waiting for you to leave. Half the fun of the server is the climb, as you mine minerals and search for sugar cane for bookshelves. A full reset will let us start our climb all over again. And a planned reset after a certain amount of time will keep the server fair.

well why not just reset it all and this way its a fight for the top and you really have to keep it but with no moderators spawning any mobs and making buildings so its fair for everybody

(and i'm sure A_FITZ will notice soon) but being on top is extremely boring.

Actually, I have allot of enjoyement being on top.. (No pun intended)

you get to hunt down people, which I love, it also gives you allot of time to build, which I do allot and continue to. Sometimes. . in rare moments ill help someone out by giving them items to get ahead, like leathers and suger cane to get an advanced enchantment table with bookshelves, or give them certain items

 

But also again, I really dont want items to be reset. I like stockpiling my stuff. I was once new too, and what I did is travel as far as I could away from the main spawn, and that was when the map limit was 1000 by 1000 blocks? much smaller then the current. 6000 by 6000 blocks. Much more opportunity for players to get far.., far away.

I mean.., other than being new, it really depends on the player as well to know what he is doing.

Also allot of these players don't take advantage of the random spawns, let alone read. I dont know why.

So.., with that being said, please dont reset items, or the map, or stats. I would be up for the option of players having the option to start fresh with stats and whatever else by requesting a reset on the forums, and you can only reset your account in an alloted time period, like every 3 months, or 2 months.

 

Also, for the newer players, instead of screwing the players that have got ahead a little, maybe come up with a new idea for newer players, other than resetting things.

The Waiting Room

The only thing that would be good in pvp (In my option.) is to have more animals spawning for food as some of us don't fight but survive the wait and keep a lookout for any would be attacker.

Otherwise some of us care not as to what will or will not be done. We go there just for a visit, and to enjoy the struggle as we wait for the the smp to go back on line when there an outage.

It fun to just have only what you have on you, but it sure good to go back to one nice fancy home in smp.

Hay whaaa!

Soooo I'll be eating a zombie pigman soon? Lol...

How about cows? That way the poorer players among us can get food, and armour to go with our wooden sword plus a glass of milk while we wait...

I have tried to grow wheat but others usually kill it off so we can't have any bread.
