WE ARE TESTING A NEW VERSION OF THIS SERVER TO START AGAIN

Can you survive in a world of total Freedom? In a world where things can be lost, everything has greater value. A diamond pickaxe that you will have forever on a creative build server (99% of them on this forum), is not as valuable to you as a diamond pickaxe that could be taken from you at any second by an army of monsters or another player. As Achilles said: "The gods envy us mortals because we are doomed".
We love our players so we are a 100% Legitimate Server! No cheating or moderator item spawning is allowed to protect your hard work!
Do whatever you want within the game design. No cheating is allowed! Our only mods are borderlands (to keep the map at a realistic size) and griefalert (to catch cheaters). The actual in-game portion of play is completely vanilla! You will never see any modifications unless you reach server borders.
Spawn area is protected to prevent massive creeper/TNT damage which scares off new players. Head west 100 blocks and you will be homefree to explore the whole server :smile.gif:.
Server IP:72.51.33.136:26565 Warning to 'fake survival server' players:
"Creative Mode" players will not enjoy this server. This server is best played by those familiar with the game mechanics who are interested in a combat/gathering/hiding/politics challenge. Competitive players are going to enjoy this server alot more than pure builders.
We are a very difficult server to begin in. Politics is a must as you will find alliances/betrayals, and enemies very quickly. Prepare to lose everything you have several times. This server provides [u]challenge[/u], something very rare among 'survival multiplayer' servers. At the beginning you will be weak and people will beat you down. Monsters will feast on your bones, and you will lose items constantly. This failure is part of the process. It will help you begin to follow the survivial routine that most of our players have to adhere to.
You will eventually have a decent hoard with some good items, and a territory you roam. Many other players will try to find your hoard and may stalk you as you become established and they know you have stuff hidden.
The genius day/night cycle notch designed truly shows on our server. People spend all day hurridly gathering goods outdoors. At night they build their base and craft items. Most players don't want to lose health or possible their items fighting zombies, so they don't venture out much at night. You will find yourself asking in general chat when morning is if you are underground. As soon as dawn strikes most players are running out of their homes pretty quickly. Many players keep a watch to get a jump on morning. This allows you to get out of your den before another nearby player can stride into your territory and notice where your base entrance is. It also let's you get a jump on the hunting.
You will feel accomplishment on this server when you get good gear. It is hard-earned and almost as hard to keep. A set of diamond armor is likely to attract groups of ambushers if you are caught alone by them.
There was a good fight at the end between two of them, and one team (butters/lead/etc) dominated all.
You must have missed the part where my group murdered them and tore up their house. Hobo got ganked once, I believe a creeper was involved, but nobody else from our side fell that day.
And OriginalAC and I are just staying away from it all... Nobody seems to know where we live. I want to keep it that way. I'm hoping some of my old buddies (Lucir, Etienn, etc.) make it back soon so we have a real fighting force ready.
While I like the concept, getting griefed over and over by people with diamond weapons isn't that enjoyable. Remove the massive beacon that shows people's names from a mile away and sure, this server is great. Otherwise, there's almost no where you can run where there won't be at least one guy with a diamond weapon that can see your nametag, and the vast majority of them that I'd found spend most of their time griefing. It's not 'true survival' until there's no nametag when the player isn't visible. I'd made an insanely hidden hide out, only for a diamond weapon guy to stroll past, notice my nametag down in the dirt that would otherwise have gone unnoticed, and instantly starts digging down to kill me. I didn't even have iron let alone diamonds. It's pure griefing.
One diamond weapon guy was kind enough to at least not destroy my base which I could never find afterwards anyway because I'd hidden it so well and it was so far away from the spawn point. Everyone else that's killed me so far has burnt/destroyed everything they didn't want.
I see it being fun if you are willing to dig through griefing more than the earth until you get lucky and find diamonds, until then this is going to be annoying.

Hey thanks for speaking your mind about it Raolan. As I can not actually fix the issues as it would require modding to the game and ruining our 'pure' nature, I have devised ways you can overcome these obstacles that I think should be brought to attention:
1) Nametags = Using the sneak option, or L_Shift, will allow your nametag to disappear from behind walls. Learning to use this properly will add a lot of fun and adventure, as well as tactical espionage to your survival gameplay. You can also use this strategy to hide your base by not making yourself visible when you're in or on your way to the stash.
2) Spawn camping/griefing/killing = Yourdogsucks and I actually turned the tides against Vaj and ManxAznx. They would keep killing us at spawn, so we used it to our advantage. Having nothing to lose, we kept attacking them and wearing them down. Eventually, we had them running for their lives with their diamond armour, tools, and weapons. The outcome was that YDS and I had ALL of the armor, tools, and weapons (that we could hold) and we left the aggressors running back to their base to regather. We also left them with the lesson that attacking the spawn with valuable weapons and armor will eventually bite them back as the victims have nothing to lose, and are in infinite waves at spawn.
I hope you can find new opportunity from what I have brought to light here. There are many ways to play the game. I admit, repetition in death is annoying but devising a way to break that repetition is very rewarding.

There are ways to make your nametag hidden in your base.... Ask around on the server. (and you should always go into sneak when approaching your base entrance).
BTW, I have never mined a diamond, yet have three diamond swords. It's called killing people :tongue.gif:
Yourdogsucks and I actually turned the tides against Vaj and ManxAznx.
Man, I WANTED to leave the spawn, but it was a terrible infinite cycle. Shitsux. You were quicker at picking up the dropped items so you got the edge. Can't win em all.
You may have gained a sword, some used armor, and random materials, but I have gained the allegiance of many fine warriors.
I'm afraid the weight of politics and greed will crumble our fortress, but so far, nobody has been able to physically enter and steal from it. AC, Xel, Etienn, and I need to be careful about striking deals with other people secretly. This could be the downfall of our base - as it is, we're probably the richest players in the game right now.
Some people were curious. This is how the list looks as of dec 27. As you can see, no special powers. (/kit has nothing attached, I need to remove it since it's pointless)

Three midsized factions formed.

I got killed 6 times trying to scout people's bases.
Now there are even more alliances forming. Xela, myself, and walmart seem to be nuetral so far..
>No cheating is allowed!
Huh? Should work on that title more then.
You must have missed the part where my group murdered them and tore up their house. Hobo got ganked once, I believe a creeper was involved, but nobody else from our side fell that day.
It's absolutely true though.
Cheating is not part of the game, that's why it isn't allowed. There are no in-game rules.

You know we're a legit server when both admins log on and get the crap beaten out of them by the players...
