It could make the game more interesting.

Although I just prefer to give people stuff that I have an excess of and deposit things into the communal chests that everyone can use, so it might be totally pointless.

The trouble is, not enough people do that. I gave up a while back.

I don't like many Minecraft Mods. I just like the original, untouched game.

I don't think having an economy would work with our style of doing things. The economy would be used to trade stuff, and to 'buy' plots of land to build on, I guess. But we don't have a central Master Overlord (though I do have a Dark Tower) to govern our lives or claim ownership of Everything. We're more of the 'if there's nothing there you can have it' attitude, and 'if you wanted it you shouldn't have left it lying about without a sign on it'.

Purchasing building materials mostly, also you can buy names for area you develop so that when you enter a town it says in yellow writing: "Welcome to X town" for example. (But that is a separate plugin) And it allows for other plug ins like turnstiles which tolls you to enter an area, good for my underground tube train branch I can charge 'tickets'.

That's an interesting idea, but not really what I want from my minecraft experience.

Well it's your server and your preference (also sorry if the beginning of that last post seemed disjointed and lacked sense, new page,) it works well over here but it can cause a little lag. There are always other means of making an economy, for example my brother plays a server where the currency is gold ingots, this is actually quite a good idea because it means that the economy is regulated by something which is hard to find, harder to replicate and is unlikely to crash.

We have about ten different evil lairs and fortresses scattered across the server. The problem is we have too many Overlords.


Pretty much this. It's like how EVE Online has an economy - sure, it's interesting in theory, but in practice it gets complicated real quick. I'd rather not get bogged down by bureaucracy when building giant blocky penises.

Plus, there's the fact that any economy would quickly go to shit when everyone has their own personal mine networks.

We should make a poll wether or not to have this new economy?

No.

EDIT: that is, I vote no. I don't care if there's a poll or not.

We could have a vote, but since 8 of the 14 current regulars have already said either they'd prefer not to or they just don't think it'd work, is there really a point?

If we have an economy I want it to be like Africa's - everyone makes all their money down mines, carries weapons everywhere and uses diamonds to buy better weapons.

The best possible use of 1.8's NPCs.

Zombie Pigmen enslavers?

Don't be such a racist.

I wasn't suggesting colonial slavery, rather, the name of the people that take workers into the mines and enforce the strict rules there.

I got fed up of having been a Minecraft player for almost a year and only ever having found one chunk that spawns slimes (in the mines below Genesis), so I'm taking a stand. I've found seven Chebyshevally contiguous slime chunks and I'm building a four-story slime farm spanning them all.

That's 16 × 16 × 4 × 7 = 7168 m² for them to spawn in. Adequate lighting of the surrounding caverns and surface will boost their spawn rate, and I shall very quickly have enough slimeballs to complete my reed autofarm, which will give me enough reed to finish my library, which means I can finish building my bedroom on top of it and finally have somewhere to sleep at night.

Lol all that for cosmetic value.

I want to work in your slime mine. My pay will be in slimeballs.

They will be the basis of our economy, and Max will be our Master.

Scrabino was helping me earlier. We found a lot of lava, and lost more than zero amount of diamond, diamond tools, and other valuables to it. Heeding his wisdom, I decided (by now solo) to start on the top floor and work my way down, eliminating the lava safely along the way.

So I fell in some lava and lost about 10 diamonds and 3 diamond picks. I hate this game.

I'll be away on vacation for the next 5 days so the server will be running this version until then at least. I hope it works alright.

No weird effects so far.

Hulaabeo helped me finish off the first section of the slime farm, which is three chunks in a row. All four levels now have slimes spawning in them. There's no obvious or safe entrance yet, just a series of drops. As such, there's no exit at all, so I'll hold off giving the coords just yet. I need to check the lighting is sufficient and obviously provide safe access, which I'll hopefully have time to do tomorrow, because I won't be on for a few days after that.

If this Poll gets started, I'm voting no.

Not finished yet but the main features are there:

Did you know that sheep hide when you're looking for them? But when you aren't, they spawn in droves. It's true!

Sod's law hates me.

You need to take your screenshots during storms.

Why is the logo pink when its clearly yellow?

The logo is beige. There is no beige wool in Minecraft, and I wanted it to look different from the yellow "spray painted" logo on the factory front. The orange is a bit too orange, so I used pink instead.

EDIT: I made a topic in Fan Corner for the Rupture Farms project. Future updates will be found there.

Why don't you use Glowstone? since the sign is glowing?

Answered you in the new RF topic in Fan Corner, all discussion for this should go there now.

Anyway I've started a non-Oddworld related project on Minecraft
*drum roll*

Team Fortress 2's 2Fort!

The plan is to make a Minecraft version of the TF2 Map 2Fort as closely as possible
I've already built parts of the Red's side and the Bridge in the middle

I would love some donations soon as well. I'm looking for Red Dyes/Wool for the RED base (no brainer whats coming next) and Blue Wool/Lapis for the BLU Base

I'll post some pictures soon.

Footage of my castle that's been sitting on my hard drive for a little while, I only just bothered to put it together. There's one room which isn't finished but I don't know what to put in it - RF takes up all my Minecraft time now anyway. So it's effectively finished.

Can you guys please let me join?

Hey, got a new account. Can you please add SevenSmith to the whitelist? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Seven is my favourite number and smith is like a black smithy smithy thing. My name is not smith...

Hey guys. I was wondering if I could join the server yet, Dripik mentioned hacking problems and server shutting down. I understand that you have a had problems, now people are on the server and building again I was wondering if the server admin could contact me ASAP. This would be much appreciated.

I thought only active members who have been here a while can join?

Don't quote me on that, Everyone try PMing Driplik.

No. Don't. I'd prefer if you sent such requests to Havoc from now on, he's the current manager after all. And yes, if you want my opinion, I'd only let active and trustworthy members on the server. Such qualities are not acquired by posting requests for admittance every day.

Agreed. Also please PM me requests instead of posting them in this topic. I generally don't respond to requests posted here. Except for Mudokon_Masters request, which you can consider granted.

Just found something interesting underneath the fountain outside Genesis.

I made an entryway to it, but beware the curse. For only those pure of heart may enter the cave.

Aw :( I feel like i missed out on some fun.
Stupid real life obstacles.
