Gonna be gone till Wednesday! So you'll be out of luck of the server goes down while I'm gone. The remote desktop software doesn't want to work either so I can't give that away... Best of luck!
Restarted again again. If it goes down one more time I'm blaming 1.6.2 because the 2 other servers I'm running are doing just fine
Actually the other 1.6.2 servers I have in my multiplayer section keep going down as well.. it could very well be.trunksbomb and I are back, by the way! Though I have orientation for the next two days and my laptop fan isn't working, so I'll have to get that taken care of as well.
So apparently the server has been down the past day or two. GT told me while we were playing Portal 2. I'll be fixing that tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get the remote desktop software working.
Also, I made a Steam group for us and in addition to that, instead of the RPG server thing we were making I think I'm going to start up a Terraria server. I suppose we'll still work on the RPG server sometime probably. Anyway, once that's up all of you who own Terraria can see how bad I am at it. Actually, I have some screenshots of my only world.
Ok, the dedicated Terraria Server is more than likely happening. The main MC server is going to be down for a little while longer while the server gets an OS upgrade. Turns out Ubuntu Server 11.04 is no longer supported and I need a newer version of a program to run the Terraria server.
Once it's up (that is if I can get it working) it will have the same IP as the Vanilla minecraft server but end in :25564. I think that'll work... Anyway I'll set up a place for the Terraria server on MY forum and I will also be PM-ing people the password. Because terraria servers have passwords I guess.
Two things.
1. I had to re-install the OS on the server and I went back to the most recent backup which was around the middle of last month.
2. The terraria server is up now. GT and I suck at it and we're both playing with new soft-core characters.
I guess I don't really care what your character might have for the Terraria server just letting you all know in case you wanted to "fit in" with everyone else. The IP is the same as the MC server and the port is 25564. Whitelisted members may PM me for the password if interested.

Why do you want to join?
ive been looking for a pure vanilla server. Im sick of single player now, and i thought id give a community a try. Also im looking for new friends :D.
How often do you plan on playing? atleast 6 hours a day when im not working.
Which rule is very important? no griefting and no swearing,
Why do you think we should let you join? I am decent at redstone. I love building nice looking structures. I'm also good at building mega structures.
Have you ever been banned from a server? Im proud to say i have not been banned.
-If so what for?
here is a little more detail about me
first off i am 21
ive been playing minecraft for almost 2 years now. I love the sheer aspect of survival. I do have a skype account if need be. I am really good a digging out huge projects if im assigned them. Most of all i would love to meet new people.
Hey G, I know it's been awhile, I quit Minecraft for a LONG time. But now I'm playing again! Could you add me back to the whitelist?
Yeah, the whitelist was "semi-accidentally" deleted. So I have to re add everyone. I added everyone who had connected on the newest world as of sometime last month.

Thanks for looking at my application.
Application looks good, you don't exactly meet the min post count though. I'll let that slide though so don't make me regret it! I'll pm you the I.P. soonish. Hopefully the server starts getting more active than I think it is.
===
Oh, and to my friends here, I'm really sorry that I had to roll back the server so far back. I lost a bit of the progress I made in my place too. If you really don't feel like redoing something huge I'll try and recompensate you somehow.
Hey guys, sorry for the inactivity. My laptop JUST broke and I've also been playing a new FTB pack, so I probably won't be on for a while - I've got my first year of college and my sport as well.
Alright so I thought I would make a post now that the server is (temporarily) down so that no one would assume I abandoned it or anything. What's going on now is a "reboot" or "reset" of the server. Meaning, I'm planning on restarting "from scratch" so to speak. I've upgraded the server's operating system from Ubuntu Server 10.04 to a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04. Along with that I'm learning some things and when the sever is up and running again I'll try to have an automated backup and an auto-restart (for when the server crashes for whatever reason, or if the power goes out or whatever) setup.
The vanilla server kinda died. I was hoping as soon as I turned off the server someone would come up here and say "Hey, the server is down" but it's been a few days and I've gotten no contact. Plus Razer said he hasn't seen anyone on in the post above mine. So I'm going to be doing a new world as well. I'm thinking though, since we got permission for a sweet mod pack that instead of vanilla I would do the mod pack server. I could do both as well but I wouldn't want to split our small player base amongst 2 servers. In addition to whatever Minecraft server I/we choose to setup I will also be setting up a Terraria server on the same machine. I'll post a thread on the Terraria forum sometime. Probably when I actually have the server running.
I'm also going to be using a spare desktop I have sitting around that never gets used and starting up a cube world server on just that machine. I might have to go get a small ram upgrade for it but other than that it should work fine.
Let's see... what else... I'm struggling to set everything up so that you connect to a URL type thing instead of an IP... Hmm... Oh, yeah. I'm going to be improving the look of the forum. I'm hoping it'll get some more use since I'm going to be creating 2 threads on 2 other forums for the cube world server and the Terraria servers. I have a theme all planned out in my head and everything. It'll look nice I hope. Just as long as my GIMP skills are as good as I think they are.
Well, that's all I can think of for now. Hope you are all doing well!
====Edit====
Alright so here's what I have now:
Vanilla server is running. Has a new world I haven't done anything on, but from what I can tell based on a quick 360, the spawn is in a flat looking oak forest.
Mod server is running. Haven't been on it at all mostly because I don't have the mod pack installed right now. It's on 1.5.1 BUT I'm at least 90% sure all the mods I'm using have been updated to 1.6.2. So I'll be experimenting on that in the future. Recent future. (Can I say that? Does that make sense?) Oh well, you know what I mean.
I have a domain name now! No longer will you have to remember that strand of numbers! I'm still getting it set up so I won't tell you what it is right now. Even if you did guess correctly you wouldn't be able to connect to anything. Also, typing the domain name without any "prefixes" (something.domain.com) it will take you to the forum I have set up. So that too will be easier to memorize.
I have yet to type out a new post but I have a good idea as to what I want to put on it. I will also be posting on a cube world forum and the Terraria forum. I already told you that though. Hopefully with the servers being advertised on multiple forums we'll get a lot more traffic!
Oh, I just remembered. As of right now cube world server only runs on windows machines. I do have a spare computer I can install windows on, however, it only has 300+MB of ram. Honestly I don't know how it's running at all. Especially at the speed it's running at. It wouldn't recognize that it was supposed to have an internet connection though despite being plugged in... So the cube world server will have to wait for awhile. I'm thinking about building another computer for that.
Ah! Almost forgot! Two-No, Three words for you: Automatic.Daily.Backups.
Yes. We'll be able to keep worlds until we want to get rid of them. Not whenever someone griefs and I inevitably forget to backup for about a month or two. Like I said the backups run every day, AND each backup is kept for a month. Awesome right?
My check list is shorter now but there are still a couple of items on it. One is getting it set up so that the Minecraft servers auto-restart after they crash. Which will be useful for the modded server. You know, because modded servers are less stable and junk. The second, make the forum prettifuller. Anything else? Hmm... Nothing I can think of right now...
----Micro-edit----
I have the domain name thing setup correctly now.
So mod.domain.example will go to the modded server, while van.domain.example will go do the vanilla server! Oh, and ter.domain.example goes to the terraria server.
---Mini-edit---
I'm going to try and have the servers officially re-opened sometime probably Tuesday the 3rd. Almost have the new forum background done.
I did read through it, I was just giving you a hard time. But umm, the server is brokeded again
Yeah I don't know what's going on, I JUST restarted and updated last night but... and now the remote desktop software isn't working either...
Actually the other 1.6.2 servers I have in my multiplayer section keep going down as well.. it could very well be.trunksbomb and I are back, by the way! Though I have orientation for the next two days and my laptop fan isn't working, so I'll have to get that taken care of as well.
