I'm the only one on the server right now, everyone else seems to be crashing when they log in.
Edit: creeper killed me while posting this.
Edit: The new update messed everything up, it's causing crashes.
Edit: I crashed... So minecraft updated...

When i log in, i get to the downloading terrain and then i get "Internal exception: java.io.UTFDataFormatException: malformed input around byte 10 (its also been other bytes within the 10-19 range)
I don't like the server's community, at least when i logged in. Really, this is probably just saying that I don't like the general minecraft player.
Still, while servers like this sound pureist and pure fun.. It really devolves into mindless digging for resources and then mindless melee combat. I'd rather see something more like real minecraft. With building great objects. But then with PvP, and wars, and factions. But I guess the average player isn't capable of doing this without being told to do it.
I mean, just the natural progression of such a server: A city is built, destroyed in a battle involving TNT and fire, rebuilt and restructured. A massive pyramid is built and later restructured into a government headquarters. Minecraft has so much potential in SMP, but it always falls short because of immaturity (which generally follows open servers) and elistism (which generally follows servers with lots of rules). People could do amazing things with the game. But instead it always goes back to dull and lifeless things like chasing each other with swords or building house after house and pretending they will last forever.
Hmm? How about some real fun? Bah, I'm sorry. That would involve people working together and socializing to a degree. How would I ever suspect people in minecraft SMP would do anything that's not anti-social? Really, I think Classic was better. Classic is more enchanting. You don't have to bother with 8 hours of mining just to get started, among many other things.
"But I guess the average player isn't capable of doing this without being told to do it."
Thus why so many fascist build servers exist.
Who said you can't build a massive fortress? How about a battleship? Or a pyramid as you said? Assemble a team, and collaborate. Protect your land and establish your own laws and hire a sheriff. This server is designed for you to manage politics yourself.
Our server is very mature. We don't have 12 year old Mods abusing their powers by spawning materials and snooping on everyone's business. The game is in the hands of the community. It's like open source; if you don't like the way it is now, why not try to improve it in your image? You have the power to do so.
Other than that being said, it's unfortunate that you didn't enjoy the server on your first log. With your last sentence stating that you enjoyed classic, I assume you're more of a build-server player, and I believe you should confine your recreation to that category.
Halcyoncmdr and I are working together to get a minecraft server running on his high-bandwidth/high resource grid server w/ domain. A grid may be what we need to fix the memory issue as it expands as needed. We also have complete access to the system (minus root) through SSH and Putty so no more working around MP limited interface.
I would have to say that this is the most mature server I have been in. It treats its users with respect. There aren't moderators who abuse powers and there aren't any ridiculous rules. This server is a blank slate, and you can literally do anything you want to within the confines of the current version. I've been on here for what, 3 days? There are groups that have formed, and people who join this server actually are able to have personalities. Their actions define them, not what they build. This server is like a dynamic Fallout, with no civilizations, a scarred landscape (especially near the spawn grounds), and individuals who just try to survive. Its amazing.

At my last sentence, I meant I expected SMP to be more impressively like Classic. I don't mean that you could build stuff and couldn't die. I mean that the same feeling isn't there. But this is just BETA, so I expect it to get better. Especially that hopefully some servers will stop closing down, so servers a few months old feel.. Lived in. And unique, exciting to explore. I remember my first few days playing Classic, I found this giant cave world someone made with a bot. But me and my friend scaled the sides, way up and built a base camp. And then the cemetery I built with secret passages into everyone else's bases. Well, this is all off topic. It mostly stems from annoyance that it takes so long to gather materials unless you get "lucky" and hit a diamond deposit with a straight-down dig.
Yes, you're right about changing it yourself, to a degree. If I don't have any support from anyone else in the community, its going to be very hard to do anything but go around aimlessly killing people. Also, the fact that you can't mute people is an annoyance. I really don't want to hear some kids spamming Yomama and Chuck Norris jokes in chat.
I'll give the server another try when it switches to 1.2.

I hope you give us another chance. Many have remarked that our server brings them back to the first days that they played minecraft.
You will find that there is far more order than you would expect in a free server like ours - in many ways there is far more order than there is on many peaceful servers. The twisted alliances and aspect of retaliation make for a society that has a tenuous order and close friendships.
Stealth and scouting are key. Information is the most powerful weapon on the server and it can be bought, sold, and traded. Trust is currency.
Hey cooper I didn't mean to sound like a ****. LOL I just read my message and the last sentence didn't come out like I wanted it to and it made me sound like an ass. I just meant that you may have more fun in a build server since we're quite counterproductive in comparison.
Info is in the OP. hey0 didn't update their mod for the new mc update, and so we're forced to play on the older server build. The fix is on the OP and on the website.

That's actually the problem :tongue.gif: Because we're dependent on hmod, which isn't updated for the current build of mc. Here is a link to the fix: http://forums.multiplay.co.uk/minecraft/79078-beta-1-2-update-multiplay-servers
