Thanks Nobdy!
Wan't to fail hard? Just run around like this dumbass!
Don't you just hate idiots like this? They never get to see your fun responses! They send a message to you with a fake link, and they run away and block you! Hurray! You just wasted 5 minutes of your life doing that buddy.
By the way, notice how there are three names?
ExplosiveDeer (Me! :biggrin.gif:)
[unknown] (His last known name)
[b1g fail] (Made this name after moving on to another smart steam user)
[b1gb33tle] (First name I encountered him with)
Now, you could call this a bot. Maybe "it" is! But I'd love to talk to the guy who coded it! Cause he sucks!
It just gives me great pleasure to point out failures as bad as this. Next time you encounter someone/something this stupid, try and get them/it to respond to a question like: "Are you trying to **** me off?" or "Hey buddy, if I click that link, will it purchase you a life?"
Trust me, I've gotten a response before!
I've even held a conversation with one. He wasn't too happy either :tongue.gif:

Brand New! The City of Islands Sub-City list Under-construction
9-11-10
The possibility of 2 more servers has come about, and we might make this a reality by the end of September, but this is what must happen before this deal can go any further! You guys, must make that Misc. Official City of Islands - Page Counter turn green!
*I'd estimate roughly 3 - 4 more posts until page 5!
9-12-10
Okay guys, that awesome thing I told you guys about in one of my latest posts? Here we go!
The whole 2 servers (above) may allow for us to have a Private Server (The City of Islands) and a Public server (Name Here). The third server is still in discussion atm.
Another thing we've been talking about is the Currency. Iron or Gold? We need your thoughts on this! So drop us a comment about what you think should be used! Gold or Iron
Okay guys! Those 2 additional servers I mentioned earlier? Those are going to be available at the end of this month!
One will be public, and the other will be Private. Thanks for the awesome 5 page marker hit! And to be honest, I think we are about to hit page 6!
9-13-10
Well guys you may have noticed all of the icons showing up near my Avatar. If not... Look harder :tongue.gif:
Anyways, I need you guys to tell me what to get, to making contact with you easiest! It really helps out when I can't get on the forums, or when I'm on for a few minutes. Just let me know by PM or drop a message in here! I'm putting you before me. If any program causes inconvenience for me, it's gonna be my fault, not yours!
Keep up the good work guys!
9-18-10
Hey! Notice that the OP is starting to look different?
Yeah! It's a bonus prize for reaching page 10! In fact, all sections will be bundled with new information! And more!
Keep up the awesome work guys, I like what I'm seeing. I must give Cannabisius a shout out for what he has done to make this server possible, and thats Running the thing itself! So give him a thanks next time you see em!
9-25-10
Well, the unfortunate has happened! At least the problem was dealt effectively. Quick and precise!
If you have noticed, there is now a "Banned" section! This will be the list of banned people (duh :tongue.gif:)
The first to make it on the list is Darkseeker! What a great start dude...
I'd like to announce that I think we might make it to page 20! And that would be amazing! In-fact that just might make me push twice as hard for that Desktop retrieval! I'm already anxious to get back to playing Minecraft with best possible FPS!
See you guys around!
Edit:
Hey guys! I just got an idea eh? If you'd like a Signature I'd be willing to make you one! I had to hand make The City of Islands signature I have :tongue.gif: So if you'd like something similar just PM me! Thanks! I'd have fun with this!
10-5-10
Well damn! Finally! That update is here! But wait, theres something I must mention thats REALLY unfortunate.
It can't be used yet!
Grr!
Anyways, lets check out what we have here!
What is it?
It will be mentioned at the end of the live updating of course! The Front Desk
The Museum... WIP :tongue.gif:
I got this idea from a player... If only I could remember his name! D:
He started making various rooms with gold and diamond and iron blocks. Something like that :tongue.gif:
Anyways, in one room, in the center, was a dirt block with a rose.
I saw it as a display case, and was wondering if there was another room, but with a yellow flower.
He said it was too much of a pain to make the rooms, so I continued it with another client. (This was from "The Great Valley")
Anyways, I thought I'd bring it here, to The City of Islands! I hope you guys enjoy the concept!
Trust me, I wan't this finished just as much as you do... But I'm having trouble finding the time!
Thanks for waiting though!
There will be more to this update soon!
10-7-10
Hey guys, It's time I release the rest of that update eh?
I don't know if you guys will find this "awesome" but.. I don't know :tongue.gif:
Anyways, during one of my JAs (Study Hall) I created this, I spent around 1hr 30mins making this. (I was testing some tools also...) In the end, I realized it had a Halloween theme to it, but I don't know if I should start making Holiday Based signatures... It'd be fun, but I'm worried I might miss a Holiday because of such terrible chances at getting time like this :\
What to do with it?
It's simple infact. Just send me a PM including:
1. Name you wish to appear in the [NameHere]
2. Color you wish your name to appear in
3. A Comment you have to add to it? :smile.gif:
Sooner or later, there might be more than just (Member or Admin Status) but it's all a conspiracy just to get you worked up... Or is it?
If you like what you see here, and wan't me to continue with the Holiday
Theme signatures, tell me what you think in a PM!
Thanks!
But wait! There's still more to this update!
10-14-10 Are you ready for this update? I know I am!
This sentence above has a double meaning without intension of doing so :tongue.gif:
Let's cut to the chase!
First, take a look at this picture.
Damnit... Wait a few minutes on this one guys, sill Derogative not only increased the map size... BUT THE CARTOGRAPH SIZE TOO! >.< Edit: 20 Minutes Later...
Details:
[*:hldo80rl]When? - October 31st - November 1st, 2010 - 6:00PM [GMT]*
[*:hldo80rl]What? - A "re-Generation" party! At the signal, we will run out the gate, and generate that Halloween spirit :tongue.gif:
[*:hldo80rl]Why? - Well... It certainly is a good way to get your pants blown off... Those new creatures are bound to get at us! I think one awesome point to this is the fact that we will meet new terrain, while keeping our previous city! So you don't lose your stuff, and best of all, we have a multi-generation dated map!
*2 Days? - There's a possibility those silly creepers will hit the server the second it updates, and we can't play if the server is down! So the main backup day is November the 1st! Further backup dates (November 5, and the 6)
We wan't to make sure as many members as possible are present!
10-25-10 EVENT ABOVE IS CURRENTLY BEING EDITED! Thanks!
Hey! Notice that new cool looking Public Event header? Yeah! It's an awesome way to get an event you wan't as many people as possible attended! Give it a shot! I would not be surprised if you get tons of people showing up for your:
Party, Community Build, Community Games, etc...
Please contact me ExplosiveDeer for more information how to set up your event on the list!
Thanks!
And there is still more coming! So hold on!
11-7-10
Fixed buckets, Added a mod called chestprotect,
Do /chestprotect1 So anyone can use the chest,
/chestprotect2 so only you can use it
/chestprotect3 so only an admin can use it
chests cannot be destroyed when their yours. When you place a block in someone elses locked chest, it gets eaten.
Also fire has been banned. But will still display a warning in chat.
There is plenty more on the way, it just... Takes a little bit to get here :tongue.gif:
-ExplosiveDeer and Cannabisius
You've probally noticed I get on less as well... WELL THATS BECAUSE I'VE REDISCOVERED XBOX. I'll make attempts to join and make buildings for public use only, nothing for my private use.... until I've made 5 structures of decent size.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
I type so fast, I give up trying to fix my mistakes.
I would keep working on my base, but the server keeps giving me some Java error. I would enter and there would be literal, the edge of the map. Was able to jump down, hang on the wall and land at the lowest level. Since this is my first time playing on a SMP map, I don't know if this is a typical error or not.
Hey sorry guys! The server needs an update :tongue.gif:
So... Unfortunately Cannabisius is not home.... So it should be taken care of at tops, 30 mins.
Oh yeah, & last time i logged in some ******* made steps up to my little island thingy. And stole a load of stuff from mah house, it's an island thing. There is a ladder for a reason :|
And that is one of the reasons why I don't show off my house to the world.
So far, no one has been able to find my house yet and I like it that way. By the way, how hard is it to get clay?
I thought some of the non-admin normals were very un friendly. But I want to give this server a chance before I can make a final choice of staying or going to another one. I'm just going to take a break right now since it's pretty much useless to keep building since they are making a new map soon.
I said it wasn't me at least three times. Considering it took me like an hour to build you would think you could catch on. If you don't think I built it then look at water in front of the house, I spelt my name out in the sand. I think that is proof enough, so why would I burn down something I built? I wouldn't, idiot.
Chris, after someone burnt half the server down i started TPing to people randomly and watching people, As i was watching you, i watched a house and trees Light on fire! With your name Bobbing arround inside the house!
if you have anymore concerns please Send me a Priviate message, No need to start this in the forums
you may or may not be telling the truth, but here's what I've gathered. I'm kind of suspicious.
Quote from ItsCrisis »
I said it wasn't me at least three times. So that automatically means you didn't grief? Think again.
Considering it took me like an hour to build you would think you could catch on. If you don't think I built it then look at water in front of the house, I spelt my name out in the sand. Wait so you built a base that was apparently burnt down, and you're denying that you burnt it down, yet you're being accused for burning your own base which people believe is someone elses? Why would you bring this up of all things you've been accused for?
I think that is proof enough, so why would I burn down something I built? I wouldn't, idiot. No need for insults, and this really isn't proof enough. So you're saying that people think you're griefing when really someone else burned down your house? I don't know but something seems off here, seeing how there are people who have seen you lighting things on fire.
On a better note! I will be switching the wrapper and Making the server priviate either tomorow or sunday! This will include a new map! Thanks to all the masses that Have logged on and made somthing! But its getting kind of hectic and messy, trying to aim this at a RP and friendly server, it seems to have turned into an allmost "freebuild" server, The fresh start will include an iron currency, and possibly even assigned jobs! depending on how much time gets Put into all this and how fast i can get it done!
For now the servers staying public, Dont be afraid to log on and build a little! If its laggy its because of the fire Someone decided to start.
Edit: Dont start asking me if you can Play when the server goes priviate, That will all be dealt with then it happens
I stumbled across this server today and spent a few hours in it. I must say that I absolutely loved it and had a really great time, even knowing that the map would soon reset. I will definitely keep an eye out for the relaunch for the admin was professional and courteous, the regulars were friendly and helpful, and most of the guests were there just to explore and build rather than grief. All in all, a wonderful server and one I would visit time and again.
I was actually *just* about to ask if I could play when the server went private when I saw the last line of the last post on the first page. Anyway, really like the server. Rather fun, and the sort of... loot-and-plunder mindset of the pre-reset is quite fun. I just left another server, when the admin became an ass, so this is quite helping to quell the sense of time wasted :smile.gif:.
