Aqua's Ocean has been running non-stop since 2010. As Minecraft's development continued over the last decade, the idea of survival mode was shifting away from the survival aspect and more towards building. This server tries to bring back the difficulty and thrill of the early versions of Minecraft, where diamonds were actually a valuable that not every player had the pleasure of experiencing.
It was always an important part of the server to keep the original feeling of Minecraft. Instead of trying to add something new, various aspects of the game have been adjusted to be more difficult, slower, or to plain up nerf Mojang's additions.
When I wrote the economy plugin in 2011, it was just a test to see how economy dynamics would develop under certain conditions. It turned out to become a huge success and a main part of the server's identity - there was nothing quite like it. The economy is fully in the player's hands, neither the economy plugin itself or the administrators intervene.
I figured it's time for a restart and gain back our old popularity. All plugins have been rewritten from scratch and the map has been reset. To meet the expectations for the economy plugin, it still is in development and will be added later.
We are currently in beta-phase, some bugs might occur.
[Rules]
No cheating, hacked clients or cheat resource packs
PVP and griefing is allowed
You may be a jerk to players, but not to who is behind them
[Example changes]
A stamina bar to limit travelling and escaping from dangerous situations
Sticks can not be crafted, but only obtained by breaking leaves
Stone tools require Stone, not Cobblestone
Normal Stone doesn't drop anything when mined, except through explosions
No bed spawn
No coordinates
Removed Ender Chests
Removed most enchantments
The nether can not be used for fast travelling and portals do not create a destination portal
.. and many more painful surprises
[Player Profile]
We are looking for dedicated players, preferably small groups or teams, who miss the old times and get too bored with the lack of difficulty and the fast progression of today's Minecraft. You are ready to start from zero again when you've lost everything you worked for, instead of getting discouraged, and perhaps want to take revenge. You understand that you won't be wearing a full set of diamond armor any time soon, if at all, and might spend the majority of your time in leather armor. You don't need to be an adult, but act mature. If this sounds like you, join us at IP aquas-server(dot)de!

did you call your "no hacks" server an anarchy server?
what is happening?
what what what
it seems like Sarium, the God of Chaos returned....
oh no
It was a title that some of my players gave it a while ago, I'm not really familiar with the terminology :'3 I'll remove it, thanks for the heads up!
no problem, anarchy means there are no rules and no admins or moderators other than the owner
